I Could Never Say Goodbye
(Duet With Amy Grant)

Chorus
I could never say goodbye when
  I need You like I do
There's an empty place inside me that
  is only filled by You
You're the treasure of my life, there's a
  thousand reasons why
I could never say goodbye

I remember lonely restless days
Going nowhere like a ship inside
  a bottle
Then Your gentle voice whispered to
  my soul
Now love has let me know
  I'm home at last, oh Lord

(Repeat Chorus)

Once I thought that love was just
  a dream
But I can't deny this miracle that's
  found me
Now I'm sure from this moment on
You're the only one I'll ever need
You're the One my Lord
And I know You'll never let me go
I'll never let You go away

Love Beyond Reason

A million shining stars couldn't match
  the bright light that You are
A million snow white doves couldn't
  match the wonder of Your love
If I could sing for all my days a million
  songs of praise would still not 
  be enough

Chorus
Love beyond reason
It's just too much to comprehend
It's so much more than I deserve
This holy love without an end
Love beyond reason
It's just more than my heart
  can hold
This love's the ultimate reward
The greatest story every told

No one but You can see
Deep inside my soul so completely
And no one else could do
All those countless things
That pull me through
I found a joy beyond compare
And in Your perfect care
You teach me what is true

(Repeat Chorus)

Yes I know
I found love beyond reason
And I know
It's a river that flows to my soul
Here I am
In the land of the living
And I know it's this love beyond reason
That has made me whole

The Gods Of Men

I used to dream of being famous
Wanted my name to be a household
  word
Well I thought that it would thrill me
Then I saw that it could kill me
Now it srikes me as a little absurd

And I used to dream of being
  Don Juan
Of having all these pretty girls 
  on the line
It made a shambles of my life
So I found myself a wife
Who's a lover and a friend of mine

Chorus
As the world keeps turning around
You either learn to bend with the Wind
  or it knocks you down
Turn your back on the gods
  of men
And the Lord who is true
Will give life back to you again

I used to dream of being a 
  rich man
yeah, I swore I'd have it all someday
Once you taste it you will find
That it isn't worth a dime
Till you're free enough to give
  it away

And I used to dream of tasting 
  vengeance
Wanted my enemies to crawl
  and sweat
Well my happiness was drained
From reliving all the pain
Now I'm learning to forgive and forget

(Repeat chorus)

I used to dream of being the wanderer
With just my sneakers and my
  old guitar
Well it got lonely right way
Now I'm happy just to play
With my daughter in my own backyard

And I used to dream of being 
  a hero
Yeah, I told myself I'd never fall down
But I couldn't take the strain
And Jesus is the name
Of the only hero I've ever found

(Repeat Chorus)

Bells

When I was a little boy
I'd wake up on a Sunday morning
And here the ringing of the bells
And I remember how good it made me
  feel inside
It was like the Lord was saying "Good
  morning, all is well"
And I'd get dressed in a hurry
And say "Mama can you take me
To where they're ringing the bells?"

Chorus
Hear the ringing of the bells
Hear the ringing of the bells
Ain't it like a Voice that's calling
  you home
After being gone so long
If you hear that ringing in your heart
Then you'll know where you belong

I spent my days at school
Chasing all those young man's dreams
Now we can fall under that spell
You'd best be mindful of what you keep
  or leave behind
I turned to find I didn't know myself
  so well
But I woke up one morning
And oh my heart was aching
I heard the ringing of the bells

(Repeat Chorus)

I can hear them ringing
Ringing, ringing, ringing
I can hear them ringing in my soul

(Repeat Chorus)

You're Loved Tonight

It's the fear of silence
That gives us away
'Cause when we're alone
We have to hear
What our aching hearts try to say

And we've been walking
In dead men's shoes
Now there's only one saving grace
And we're given the power to choose

Chorus
Whoever you are
I hope you'll be alright
I hope you'll let the good Lord
Fight your fights
No matter what you hear
Whispered in your ear
Just remember that you're
  loved tonight
Loved tonight

We keep our distance
We state our case
We keep telling ourselves
That we're anything else
But a fallen and renegade race

So we keep running
Watching our sin take its course
While the life that we long for
Is holy by nature
And we must return to its source

(Repeat Chorus)

Everywhere you go
There are signs to show you
Trying to let you know
You're loved tonight
Someone's waiting
Watching over you
Watching over you

We're restless spirits
We've lost our way
But until we confess 
That we dwell in the darkness
We'll never catch sight of day

It's the fear of silence
That puts us to shame
It's like we know in our souls
If we shut off the music
The wind would be crying His name

(Repeat Chorus)

Until Your Love Broke Through

Like a dreamer who was trying to build
  a highway to the sky
All my hopes would come tumbling
  down and I never knew just why
Until today when You pulled away
  the clouds that hung like curtains on
  my eyes
I'd been blind all those wasted years
  I thought I was so wise
Then You took me by suprise

Chorus
Like waking up from the longest dream
How real it seemed
Until Your love broke through
I was lost in a fantasy
That blinded me
Until Your love broke through

All my life I've been searching
  for that crazy missing part
With one touch You just rolled away
  the stone that held my heart
And now I see that the answer
  was as simple as my need to
  let love in
From now on I will never doubt that
  magic touch again

(Repeat Chorus)

There is nothing in the whole
  wide world that means this
  much to me
In Your love I have found the truth and
  truth has set me free
Now I'm feeling like a barefoot child
  dancing in the sun
Unafraid I can face each day because of
  all You've done
Now my life has just begun

(Repeat Chorus)

Hymn

In this land of the walking wounded
In this desert of countless sorrows
I will cling to His hand today and fear
  not for tomorrow

In my heart I have made this promise
With this song I declare my choice
I will walk where the Shepherd leads
  and heed no other voice

In the chill of my darkest hour
I am saved from my deep despair
For the Father who loves His children
  hears my trusting prayer

In my soul there is one light shining
From the flame of my true belief
And its embers cannot be quenched or
  robbed by any thief

In the end we are not forgotten
And our journey is not in vain
For the Master who brought us here
  will lead us home lead us home again

Angry Young Men

He wants some angry young men
Ones who can't be bought
Ones who will not run from a fight
Ones who speak the truth whether it's
  popular or not
Ones who'd give up anything to walk
  in His light

Chorus
Rest assured when Jesus comes again
He'll be looking for some angry
  young men

He wants some angry young men
With fire in their eyes
Ones who understand what Jesus gave
Ones who have grown weary
  of the world and all its lies
Ones who won't forget they've been
  delivered from the grave

(Repeat Chorus)

They say if you don't laugh you cry
I say if you don't live you die
Well, well, the road to hell is paved with
  some impressive alibis
But unless you thirst for Jesus first
  Man, heaven will pass you by
Heaven will pass you by

You'll be tempted, tried and tested
There'll be wars the devil wins
But God's love is not a license to lie
  there in your sins
He understands the human heart
His mercy is complete
But His grace was not intended
As a place to wipe your feet

(Repeat Chorus)

He wants some angry young men
Who love the Lord they serve
Ones who'll do much more than make
  a speech
Ones who'll act their faith out with a
  passion it deserves
'Cause if we cannot live it
Tell me, who are we to preach?

Judgement Day

In the slums of Port-au-Prince
When the rain comes pouring down
The homeless people sleep on the
  muddy ground
And the children die so young
'Cause there's not enough to eat
When their only food is the garbage
They have found

Chorus
I just can't get their faces
Out of my mind
No matter how hard I try
And I realize I must never forget
There, but for fortune, go you and I
I just couldn't believe my eyes
And I wanted to cry out loud
Can't you see there will be
A terrible price to pay
On Judgement Day

The cruise ships painted white
Are anchored in the bay
The tourists fill their plates from the
  lunch buffet
And the people on the shore
Gazing up like silent ghosts
Are doomed within a life
That is worlds away

Cross That Line

Out in the danger zone
Hearts are all alone and loves denied
If truth has set you free
Can you watch safely from the
  other side
Now it's up to you
And there's something you must do

Chorus
Cross that line
Tell me what are you waiting for?
You say you want a sign
Man, you don't need any more

Go tell the hurting ones
The King of Hope has come to hear
  their prayers
And as He lives through us
The human touch will let them know
  He cares
Don't back down
Reach out
That's what faith is all about

(Repeat Chorus)

Step by step your fears will fall behind
But first you gotta cross that line

You can know a life that's full
If you'll just live it
You can taste the fruit of love
If you'll just give it
You only rob yourself by stalling
There's a world outside
And the Master's calling you
Calling you to cross that line
What are you gonna do now?
You're running out of time

Claim your place within His
  grand design
Comes on, cross that line
