Looking at the road ahead
Coming to a bend
I may lose a lover here
I may lose a friend

If that is what happens
If that should come to pass
I may not be able to
Withstand the blast

I need you,  I need you
I need you like the clouds need the sky
I need you and I’m not going to let you get away
Cuz I love you and I’m willing to fight

Looking at these circumstances
Staring in my face
Makes me blink, turns my head
Makes me look away

If this was my Alamo
A last stand metaphor
The meaning clearly points to this:
I need you even more!

I need you, I need you
I need you like the clouds need the sky
I need you and I’m not going to let you get away
Cause I love you and I’m willing to fight

I won't be the one that let's you get away
And in spite of all this pain I will stand
But I will be the one who loves you to the end
More than just a friend, I'm your man

I need you,  I need you
I need you like the clouds need the sky
I need you and I’m not going to let you get away
Cause I love you and I’m willing  to fight
I love you, I love you
I love you and I’m willing to fight

Fight for You

When my father passed away
And I was sitting by his side
After all those crazy phone calls
And a 2000-mile  drive

Did I say the right things
As he slipped away from earth
And I kissed him on the forehead
And tried to comfort him with words
Did I do enough?

Can I ever do enough is there any  end?
Of cherishing those who blessed my life
Whether family or friend
Something tells me that my work 
Will never here be through
Only leave the world a better place
Doing all that I can do

When my mother reached her end
And I was right beside her bed
After all those years of conflict
I kissed her on the forehead

Did I make the the right decisions
Did it end the best it could
On a hospice bed in pain
Did I do all that I should?
Did I do enough

Can I ever do enough is there any end?
Of cherishing those who blessed my life
Whether family or friend
Something tells me that my work 
Will never here be through
Only leave the world a better place
Doing all that I can do

But did I do enough?
Did I do all I can do?
Did I hesitate when I
Should have followed through

Can I ever do enough is there any  end?
Of cherishing those who blessed my life
Whether family or friend
Something tells me that my work 
Will never here be through
Only leave the world a better place
Doing all that I can do

Did I Do Enough

Verse 1
You are my chosen ones in whom my soul delights
You are the called ones, adopted before all time
I gave to you My Spirit to bring you back to Me
So be rich in faith and holy

Chorus
Many are called but few are chosen
Remember Whose you are
And remember that you had nothing to hope in
But now you've been set apart
You have been given a precious gift
That can never be taken away
So be thankful that you are chosen
Every day

Verse 2
You are my special ones called into the light
You are beloved and you have a brand new heart
You’re a holy people I have called and you are free
A new creation in Me

Chorus
Many are called but few are chosen
Remember Whose you are
And remember that you had nothing to hope in
But now you've been set apart
You have been given a precious gift
That can never be taken away
So be thankful that you are chosen
Every day

Bridge
You are chosen
You are chosen
You are chosen in Him
  
Chorus
Many are called but few are chosen
Remember Whose you are
And remember that you had nothing to hope in
But now you've been set apart
You have been given a precious gift
That can never be taken away
So be thankful that you are chosen
Every day
Be thankful that you are chosen
Every day

Chosen

New album 'Parabolic' coming soon

A man had two sons, the youngest one said: 'I am going' 
'Give me my share of property that is coming' 
He soon went away, squandered his wealth in wild living
Fell into need, longed for pig's feed, he had nothing

'The servants of my father have abundance 
Yet here I perish hungry and alone 
I will arise and go back in repentance 
And say that I have sinned, I'm not his son.' 

I'm coming home... 
I'm coming home... 

But in the distance, you saw me 
Before I could say I was wrong 
In compassion, you ran straight towards me 
Kissed me and embraced me as your son 

Dressed in your robe 
Shoes on my feet 
A ring on my hand 
The best food to eat 
Dead but now living 
Lacking for nothing 
I thought I was going 
But now I'm coming home...

Parabolic

Prodigal

Order my steps, O Lord 
Establish the way               
I trust in You with all my heart
I honor Your name
Steady my steps, O Lord
Keep my heart pure
Let me walk in Your promises
Where I'm secure               

Let all things work together for good
He will change those shadows into light
He will bring His presence into every step we take
Comforting our souls, becoming our delight
All things work together for His purposes and His plans
Beyond our understanding at times
He will bring His presence into every step we take
Comforting our souls
Becoming our delight

Establish my steps O Lord
As I try to plan my way
Lead me and guide my feet
For Your namesake
Keep my paths straight, Lord
Keep me upright
Let no temptation hinder my life

If all things work together for good
Then He will change our shadows into light
And He will bring His presence into every step we take
Comforting our soul becoming our delight
All things work together for His purposes and His plan
Beyond our understanding at times
He will bring His presence into every step we take
Comforting our souls 
Becoming our delight
He’s comforting our souls 
Becoming our delight

Every Step

Love is as strong as death (Song 8)

Verse 1
Living God I come to you
Supplying me my daily food
Living God…   I come to You
Providing me our daily bread
The food of life.  That’s what you said
Living God…  I know it’s true 
Chorus 
Living God you have made a way for me
Through the sacrifice of Jesus on that tree
Because of Him I am a new creation
Because of Him I can say that
You are the living God!

Verse 2
God of life I lift You up
What You provide is quite enough
Living God…   I lift You up
Giving me what I need most
Sustaining grace to keep me close
To Your side…   Living God

Chorus 
Living God you have made a way for me
Through the sacrifice of Jesus on that tree
Because of Him I am a new creation
Because of Him I can say that
You are the living God!

Bridge
God of the life…   You have given to me
Born from the water and Spirit— I’m complete
And the life... I now live… in the body… I live
By faith in the living God 

Outro 
Living God you have made a way for me 
Through the sacrifice of Jesus on that tree
Because of Him I am a new creation
Because of Him I can say that
You are the living God!
