UNAFRAID
Verse one:
I say that I believe the promises of God
Most of them I could recite to you
But living out my life
I don’t act as if they’re true
My light stays hidden safely where not too many see
Worried about lots of stuff that seems unclear
Can’t be the man I should be
And it’s all because of fear
Chorus:
Unafraid. I want to be unafraid.
Fear is a lie of the enemy
May Your perfect love drive it out of me
Unafraid. I want to be unafraid
To bring love and hope to those in need
Secure that You’ll take care of me
Unafraid.
Verse two:
Fear not the angels said time and time again
It’s time I started taking their advice
Put my full weight on Your Word
Stop being scared of lies
There’s people all around me that need to know Your love
Everybody goes through times of rain
Gonna get my own hands dirty
And start to make a change
Chorus:
Unafraid. I want to be unafraid.
Fear is a lie of the enemy
May Your perfect love drive it out of me
Unafraid. I want to be unafraid
To bring love and hope to those in need
Secure that You’ll take care of me
Unafraid.
Bridge:
Time to live boldly for Your glory
Walk through the fire if that’s Your plan
Oughta be strong and courageous
Cause my life is in Your hands
Bridge Two:
If to live is Christ and to die is gain
I have nothing to fear by Your holy name.

COVER ME
Verse one
I don’t know where to start,
The choices made by me have broke Your heart, now I’m torn apart
Once again I’ve dropped the ball,
But no matter how many times I fall, still You call
Need to step out of the crowd,
Need to lay these burdens down, so here I bow
Chorus
Cover me with your love
Cover me with your grace
Cover me with your love
Cover me with your grace
Verse two
I’ve come to myself finally,
And even though I’m so unworthy, you forgive me
Found the pearl of great price,
Want to dedicate my whole life to You Christ
Can’t do this on my own,
The strength I need must come from You alone, You alone
Chorus
Cover me with your love
Cover me with your grace
Cover me with your love
Cover me with your grace
Bridge
I need Your mercy, Lord, I need Your grace
You paid the debt, You took my place
Cover me with your love
Cover me with your grace
Wash me white as snow

I Know

I Know
I know your world is crashing down again
I know you’ve hit that great big wall again
The next big thing turned into one more waste of time
You thirst for something to bring some meaning
Feel like a failure and don’t know where to turn
Cause how can you start over when you feel so far behind?/
I know I’ve been right there for you again
I know I’ve come each time you’ve called again
But now it seems that I’ve been holding out on you
You see the secret that I’ve been keeping
Is what you needed but I was too afraid
So the help that I was giving wasn’t that much help at all
CHORUS:
But I know, I know, I know the answer
I know, I know, I know the One
Who will wash the slate clean, start a new scene, forget your tragic past
I know, I know, I know the answer
I know, I know, I know the One
Who can give it all to you, life that’s brand new, joy that’s meant to last
He’s what you’re searching for and He’s waiting at the door
I know
I know He’s calling out to you again
I know He’s willing to forgive again
But you think it doesn’t matter, that these gods are all the same
I’m gonna tell you about a Savior//Who is the reason that I’m satisfied
He is the purpose and the meaning, and Jesus is His name
CHORUS:
But I know, I know, I know the answer
I know, I know, I know the One
Who will wash the slate clean, start a new scene, forget your tragic past
I know, I know, I know the answer
I know, I know, I know the One
Who can give it all to you, life that’s brand new, joy that’s meant to last
He’s what you’re searching for and He’s waiting at the door
I know
Don’t let fear or questions keep you from His grace
Let me take you to the cross so you can see the Savior’s face
CHORUS:
But I know, I know, I know the answer
I know, I know, I know the One
Who will wash the slate clean, start a new scene, forget your tragic past
I know, I know, I know the answer
I know, I know, I know the One
Who can give it all to you, life that’s brand new, joy that’s meant to last
He’s what you’re searching for and He’s waiting at the door
I know

I've Got It Under Control
Verse one
A boy with auburn hair cries because he's scared
Of the nightmare that just woke him up tonight
His father holds him close
Runs away the ghosts
And tells him everything will be alright
Chorus
I've got it under control, have no fear
Let me dry those precious tears
You're too small to know what I can see from here
I've got you here in my arms, so close your eyes
I'm gonna stay right by your side
It's the struggles and hurts of life that help you grow
And I've got it under control
Verse two
A dad close to despair, praying cause he's scared
Of the nightmare that he's living through tonight
His Father up on high
Hears his heartfelt cry
And knows that everything will be alright
Chorus
I've got it under control, have no fear
Let me dry those precious tears
You're too small to know what I can see from here
I've got you here in My arms, it's no surprise
I'm gonna stay right by your side
It's the struggles and hurts of life that help you grow
And I've got it under control
Bridge
Why do we find it so hard to trust in God like a little child
When He's the perfect Father and He loves us all the while?
He doesn't want us to worry no matter what might come along
Cause we've got a Father in heaven who's in charge of it all.
Chorus
He's got it under control, have no fear
Let Him dry those precious tears
We're too small to know what He can see from there
He's got us all in His arms, it's no surprise
He's gonna stay right by our sides
It's the struggles and hurts of life that help us grow
And He's got it under control

Soldiers of the Cross
Verse 1
Climbing, Jacob’s, Jacob’s ladder home
Glory will be ours to find
And freedom, do you want your freedom?
Then higher, higher, heavenward home
And freedom, do you want your freedom?
Soldiers of the cross
Soldiers of the cross
Bridge
My life has shown me things
Not all angel scenes
And I cling to you
Times I never saw coming
Or never saw going
Hurtful things
And I’m as much one thing as another
Demon as saint
And you see through me
But hearts sail on eagles’ wings
Forgiveness brings
And we’re lost in you
Verse 2
Rise, shine, glory to be given to God
Keep on climbing, Jacob’s ladder home
And glory will be ours to find
So higher, higher, heavenward home
And freedom – do you want your freedom, soldier?
Soldiers of the cross
Soldiers of the cross
Chorus
Do you, do you want your freedom?
And do you, do you want to serve the Lord?
Then hear me, gather round, you soldiers
Soldiers of the cross
Tag
I cling to you
You see through me
We’re lost in you

Copies and Shadows
Verse one
I look around this world at the things Your hands have made
And I’m amazed at just the small part I can see
The way things work together, the way the seasons change
There are so many parts that are still a mystery
But creation isn’t perfect since sin has entered in
Groaning in labor pains till You set it right
Recreate your pride and joy and make all things brand new
With a land of no death, no sorrow, and no night
Now the mirror’s dim, but soon we’ll see You face to face
But right now it’s just the copies and shadows of that place
CHORUS:
Lord, I’m longing for that day
When I will finally hear you say
Well done, my child, you’ve finished a long race
Now come into my presence
And you can find your rest
There are no more copies and shadows in this place
Verse two
You gave detailed instructions on how your temple should be built
And I imagine that it was glorious to behold
But the reason for those details was to give us a small glimpse
Of how it’s gonna look when we walk those streets of gold
Now the mirror’s dim, but soon we’ll see You face to face
But right now it’s just the copies and shadows of that place
CHORUS:
Lord, I’m longing for that day
When I will finally hear you say
Well done, my child, you’ve finished a long race
Now come into my presence
And you can find your rest
There are no more copies and shadows in this place
Verse three
We sing our praise together and raise our hands to You
Making a joyful noise just as best we can
But when people from every nation gather round Your throne
There’s never going to be a better sounding band
Now the mirror’s dim, but soon we’ll see You face to face
But right now it’s just the copies and shadows of that place
CHORUS:
Lord, I’m longing for that day
When I will finally hear you say
Well done, my child, you’ve finished a long race
Now come into my presence
And you can find your rest
There are no more copies and shadows in this place

Tired of Trying
VERSE ONE
God, I’ve really tried this week
To be the best that I can be
But I’m worried I still didn’t do enough
And I don’t feel the joy I thought I would
For doing things you’ve said are good
Cause I worked so hard to try and earn Your love
CHORUS
Tired of trying, tired of falling flat on my face
Tired of trying to prove my love or repay Your grace
Cause this fear and this guilt are sad motivation
When what You want is for me to love You more
But even that I can’t do without You breaking through
Tired of trying, Lord, change my heart.
VERSE TWO
Running hard as I can go on
The hamster wheel of obligation
Can’t anybody see this is killing me
But I don't know what right I have to pout
Lord, change me from the inside out
When the focus is on You then I’ll be free
BRIDGE
God, I can’t, but You can, how I long for Your hand
To draw me back to sit at Your precious feet
Instead of looking at all that I’m looking to do
I need to turn my eyes back to You
SECOND BRIDGE
Lord, I want to love you more
Help me love you more
Restore the joy of my salvation
Help me to love you more

True Vine
Child of sorrow, child of woe
Holding out for better time
Just don’t ask for contribution
Yours is yours, mine is mine
CHORUS:
Catered to and amused
Show me your sign
Wisp of a dream
Where is the True Vine?
Where ocean depths flow
Rainbows trace the rain
You’re the Hope of every nation
Solace for the pain
CHORUS:
Catered to and amused
In the starry summer sky
Wisp of a dream
Where is the True Vine
I feel Your promise in the morning
I seek You, Lord, set me free
Precious name, o how sweet
Sweeter still Your face to see
CHORUS:
Catered to and amused
In the starry summer sky
Wisp of a dream
You are the True Vine

He Has Overcome

He Has Overcome
Have you had another one of those days
Feeling like you don’t measure up or belong
And life's become a big unsolvable maze
Where even you and yourself just can’t get along
Just remember when your path’s strewn with failures
And you don’t feel smart or handsome enough
In this world there’s gonna be troubles
But He has overcome
Jesus has overcome the world
and He sees the struggles that you’re facing
He has the power to make a mountain range
but He hears every word you’re praying
So no matter what temporary struggles make this world seem tough
Never forget that He has overcome
Ever since you heard the news from the doctor
You’ve been fighting each day just to get through the pain
And you’re not sure you can make it much farther
Cause you don’t even have the strength left to complain
But even though your body’s in shambles
There’s a promise you can draw power from
In this world there’s gonna be troubles
But He has overcome
Jesus has overcome the world
and He knows each of our secret fears
He has a mansion waiting just for us
in a land where there’s no more tears
So no matter what temporary struggles make this world seem tough
Never forget that He has overcome
When the evil in this world tries to rob you of your joy and peace
Be brave
God is on the throne
He's already won, He's already won
When your burdens get too heavy to bear
And the big and little problems are getting you down
When you can’t find anyone else who cares
And all the plans that you made are running aground
Even if everything around you crumbles
Just close your eyes and thank the Lord above
In this world there’s gonna be troubles
But He has overcome

Other Plans
Verse one:
I guess part of me didn’t think this day would get here
Told myself that things could stay like this forever
But I feel like I just read the final words of some great novel
It’s time to lay it down
And grab another from the table
Chorus:
Even though it’s tough to leave,
God’s got other plans for me
I know it’s hard for us to see
But it’s time to go
Please know when I am gone
That I’ll keep you in my heart
I wish we didn’t have to part
But God’s got other plans for me
Verse two:
The future may bring dark and stormy weather
But I’m so thankful for the time we’ve shared together
While I travel down this long Francisco Road I’ll be okay
‘Cause I’ll take along those memories
And they’ll be lighting up my way
Repeat Chorus
Bridge
I can’t wait to see
Where God will guide the way
The loving roots that I have left here
Might bring me back someday
But if our lives on Earth we find
By God’s design don’t coincide
I know we’ll be together on the other side
Repeat Chorus
