Open Up the Doors Open up the doors, open up your eyes Let the Spirit blow right through you Open up your mind, let your soul be free Let His Spirit come transform you now.
His love is so amazing, I can hardly believe it’s true There’s something so unchanging ‘bout what He’ll do for you
I know you’re feeling lonely, need a breath of fresher air He’ll give you grace if only you say a prayer.
Surrender to the ever-living One Whose shines with rays so brighter than the sun.

The Journey Continues What am I doing here In the middle of nowhere When can I learn the exile’s over, when can I go home I send a dove from the mountaintop She’s soaring, but my spirit’s not When can I learn to fly unto the sun?
This path I tread is growing long But I rely on Christ who makes me strong I’ll dance and sing ‘till the day I’m new For this path, I pray, leads me to You.
By the mountain streams I trod, Drinking from the life of God My food the will of Him whom I pursue The path leads deep into the wilderness I trust that Christ is Lord of this For though I’m alone, I’m not deserted anymore.

Libations An olive growing on the tree Is picked and trampled down by Thee The oil of gladness flows to the earth The olive crushed brings forth new birth
Unless a grain falls down and dies, it remains but a single grain.
I am being poured out like a libation Emptied from the inside, that I may be filled again With Your Holy Spirit, fill my soul to overflowing With Your Holy love…I am Your libation.
You tread the winepress of my soul I pray Your wine will make me whole Libations poured for thirsty men Use me to make them whole again.
I will become a living sacrifice if You will become my one and only prize that The world may be transformed by living in Your light.

Stillness (Psalm 131) As a child has rest in its mother’s arms, even so my soul Trust in the Lord, O Israel, forever more
O Lord, my heart is not proud Nor haughty my eyes I have not gone after mysteries Nor marvels that are beyond me.
Truly I have set my soul In silence, and peace. As a child has rest in its mother’s arms Even so my soul.
Like the deer that longs for running streams, my soul yearns for You My heart aflame with love for You, the living God.

Broken Unto You I’m broken, but I seek Your face Wounded, Your healing grace Empty, Your saving cup Fallen, You pick me up, pick me up.
I’m trusting in a grace I cannot feel Not knowing if Your love is even real I come with wounds that only You can heal.
Before Your table Lord I humbly kneel And beg for crumbs from Your most sacred Meal I wait the day Your glory is revealed.
I search the sacred writings for something that’s igniting To light my soul on fire with the taste of sacred love And I will keep on hoping, until the door is open, And I will keep on praising ‘till I’m made new.

I'm Ready Lord, I’m willing and this time I’m ready My legs are trembling but Your grace is steady You give power to the frightened and Your strength to the weak You give grace and peace to all who seek They who wait on the Lord shall rise up strength On the wings of the eagle they shall run at length They will walk through the mountains and will not grow faint And the Lord shall be my ever-living strength.
Lord, You’ve put me in a battle I’m not strong enough to fight And I’ve seen might makes right in this life without light But though an army camp against me, no evil should I fear For Your rod and Your staff and Your grace is ever near But still with hope beyond all telling I can’t help but be afraid For You of all should know that it’s of dust that I have been made And though I want to give control of my soul to the One I seek, You know the spirit is willing but the flesh is weak.
The Lord is a warrior, Lord is His Name! He is strengthening my heart and I will never be the same And my foes never know that it’s the Lord Who’s got my back And they will stumble and fall when they make their attack So if this is my creed, then why have I trembled When I see the world in armor, for battle assembled Should be no fear, nowhere near, persevere to what’s true When I fall on my knees and cry, "Lord, I trust in You!"
So with courage at hand and the Lord at my side I will fight the good fight until the day that I die With holiness as my breastplate and faith as my shield And the Sword of the Spirit as the weapon that I wield. And though I fear of how weak and how fallen I can be, I gotta respect and reflect Your power made perfect in me. For You are God and I am not, how can I question Your ways And You have promised to be with us till the end of our days.

We're Christians (Or That's What We Claim) I don’t know how to tell you, so I’d better start We’ve got to change our life We say we’re Christian but we’ve got divided hearts But God can end this strife. Christ has no words but ours, no lives to spread His truth.
I can see clearly now that they’re looking at us Trying to find someone to blame So we must live the life, it’s so obvious 'Cause we’re Christians, or that’s what we claim And we live for the love of His Name.
If we don’t change our lives to be a sign of contradiction, They’re gonna lose their faith. We can lead them to seek things of evil, or we could be An avenue of grace. Christ has no words but ours, no lives to spread His truth.
And I wonder if our hearts are truly pure And I wonder if God’s wanting something more.

Song of Joy I'll sing of the love, perfect love that is true The love that I've known from my youth I sing in thanksgiving for all that You do I sing of the joy that is You.
Your love is unending Your Blood is proof That I am forgiven All praise to You.
Your mercy, unfailing From age to age All nations sing together Love that knows no end
Generations shall sing Your praise As time will cease and pass away Your love is present day by day, my God.

I Look At You Everyday I look at you, and realize what I’ve missed All those things you do, I shouldn’t have dismissed But what else can I say, I’ve chosen the better part
And I look at you again, to see what I’m losing That’s when I really know, I know what I’m doing I’d gladly give it all up to see you contented For both our greater goods is what I’ve intended Every time I look at you.
To see you ‘round me always breaks my heart This hole inside with what shall I fill it? I thought I’d never bear for us to be apart But this love I have for you is starting to bear fruit.
I see there’s something there, supernatural And through my pain, I shall care, I shall care for you For though you won’t be mine I shall always love you Every time I look at you.

I Cannot Offer You I cannot offer You an unsullied robe For I have killed my soul time and time again I cannot offer You a sacrifice of gold Prized so highly by the sons of men.
But with a contrite heart and a humble spirit Let my poor soul be received As a fragrant gift like incense in Your house In Your mercy I believe.
I cannot offer You penitential flesh For I am weak and frail of body and soul I cannot offer You sorrow-laden tears For I am obstinate and feeling so cold.
I believe in the promise of love, that covers my sins I believe in the mercy of love, and newness within.

Holding On Falling leaves, wandering dreams Love can seem so far away now Wanting to know, if I let go Who’s holding on, who’s got my back now?
I’m holding on to You, ‘cause You’re all I’ve got left In sorrow I leave, while everyone slept But the truth is You've called, and tomorrow I'll die For You to rise to life.
Flowers bloom in the crystal moon But I know soon it all fades away Lives will end, but still, my Friend, I’m holding on – I won’t let You go.
This is the final song I'll sing, For You, my God, are everything I long to see You in my grasp For now I have the peace at last For bound to You my soul is free I'll praise Your Name eternally And I'll continue holding on And I'll sing the notes of this last song.
