Song for the Children
Lyrics:
BE THE CHANGE
He looked into my eyes
With a stare far too wise
For a boy that’s only 5 years old
No smile to be seen
And even through my computer screen
I could tell that he wanted to be known

I can’t get those eyes out of my mind
I’ve found a love I never knew I’d find

Though we’re worlds apart
This boy has caught my heart
I just want him to know
That he is not alone
Though we’re miles away
God’s love remains the same
And for this little boy
I could be the change

Flash forward seven years
And see me sitting here
With a letter from this boy
Says how he goes to school
And thinks soccer’s pretty cool
And it fills my heart with joy

He says, “You’ve been a blessing in my life.”
He’ll never know how much he’s blessed mine

So many children without hope
Thinking they’ve got no hand to hold
No one that’s showing them the way 
Maybe you could be the change


Be The Change

A couple months ago
I packed up and left home
From the beautiful mountains of Oregon
To the hot and humid of Florida
Three thousand miles away
From all my family
Trying to chase my dreams
But my heart is torn between
All I’ve known and all that’s left unseen

I could not have known
Every bump along this road
All I know is that you been with me every step of the way
I could not have seen
All that you’d reveal to me
All I see are the signs of your love in the middle of every day
And even when it gets hard to believe what you say
Oh oh, Jesus have your way

Some days I’m feeling fine
Some days I lose my mind
But through all of these highs and these lows
Oh, you’re making me grow
You say to deny myself
So I choose you and no one else
I will depend on you
Even though I’m confused 
By all I’ve done and all that’s left to do

If it means that I’m lonely
If it means that I’m poor
If it means opportunity won’t knock on my door
If it means all the treasures of life will escape me
That’s fine
That’s fine
For I am yours and you are mine

Jesus Have Your Way

I'm empty
And searching
Oh won't you come and fill me
I'm longing
And waiting
For you to come and fill me up
Again
Won't you fill me up 
Again

Only you can satisfy
Only you can breathe new life
So I'll give my every breath
Just to know you
Only you can make me whole
Only you can save this soul
So I'll praise you for the rest of my life
Cuz only you can satisfy

I'm hungry
And thirsty
Oh won't you you come and fill me
I'm wanting
Desiring
For you to come and fill me up
Again
Won't you fill me up 
Again

So many things that draw my heart
But we will not be torn apart
Oh won't you fill me up
So many things that twist your truth
But I will choose to believe in you
Oh won't you fill me up
So many things that catch my eye 
But only you can satisfy
Oh won't you fill me up


Satisfy

We come before you now
Our hands are empty
Nothing to give to you
So we bow at your feet
God of our salvation
King of every nation
Come invade our hearts…show us who you are

Let us fall into the hands of your mercy
Let us sing for all you’ve done- we’ve been set free
The promise of you God will always be enough
Let us come to know the depths of your love

We are so thankful
For all you’ve given
Humbled yourself to earth
Forsaking Heaven
You died upon the cross
To clear the way for us
Come and fill our hearts…with more of who you are

How deep, how high, how far, how wide
is the Lo-ove of Christ

Depths of Your Love

THE LORD YOUR GOD 
Oh my child
I know you’re scared
You’re on your knees
Wondering if I’m there
But do not fear
‘Cause my love is strong
In tears and pain
In joy and song

When the storm comes
I will be with you
When your walls fall
I will pull you through
When the fire burns
I am making you new
For I am the Lord Your God

Oh my child
You try so hard
Give up the fight
Come as you are
I came to earth
I took your place
You’re drowning in
Unchanging grace

CHORUS

I am the only Savior
I am the one true God


The Lord Your God

I see you sitting there
acting like you just don't care
Well, i see through the smile that you wear
You think no one understands 
but I'm reaching out my hand
Just let me pick you up and help you stand

[CHORUS]
I-I am
Who I say
Always with you everyday
And you belong
Here with me

I know where you are
You can trust me with your heart
Give me all 
You can have 
All of me 

No one sees your point of view
In all you’re going through
But I can promise that I see the real you
I hold you close to me
You’re hidden in my wings
And no matter what your day may bring

Bridge
You gotta believe it
You gotta receive it
That I am who I say I am

All Of Me

Great is your faithfulness
Great is your faithfulness
Morning by morning new mercies I see
All I have needed your hand has provided 
Great is your faithfulness, lord unto me

Oh god my father
You are unchanging
There is none other
That is unfailing
There is no fear in you
All guilt has been removed
And you will forever be faithful to me

Through every season 
Your hand is upon me
So with all creation
My heart won't stop singing 
The Sun, moon, and stars above
Speak of your endless love 
All of the earth cries "faithful is he!"

Every mistake I've made
You have forgiven
Now I can find my rest
Here in your presence 
When I am on my knees
You give the strength I need
And remind me you're faithful for eternity

Faithful, faithful, lord you are faithful unto me


Great Is Your Faithfulness (revised version)

Sometimes you feel so far away
Sometimes I don't seek your face 
Sometimes all I wanna do is close my eyes and hide
But you keep your promises
And I am sure of this
That you'll be with me every step along the way

So I'll trust in you

There's a lot of land ahead of me
A lot of hills to climb
Some say I'll never make it
Through the dry and lonely times 
But I know that you are faithful
And I know that you are strong
And the land I have to conquer
You have already won

I stepped out on this road
15 years ago 
At only three years old said "God you take the lead"
You knew where I'd fail
And yet you loved me still 
There's never been a moment that you've forsaken me

So I'll trust in you

You never said that it would be easy
You never said there wouldn't be storms
But you promised that your love wouldn't fail me
And that your grace is always enough 


Already Won

Listening

When I’m broken
When I’m desperate
My heart is torn in two
You’re still with me
You’re still waiting
For me to come to you

Even when your voice is hard to find
Still I am yours and you are mine

So I’m listening
And I’m drawing near
When I’m in your presence there’s no fear
So I’m listening
To my savior’s call
At your feet of grace I choose to fall
So I’m listening


When I’m peaceful
When I’m fearless
When my hope is in you
You’re still wanting
All I’m holding
Lord, I give it all to you

Even when I cannot see your plan
You just keep reaching out your hand

My strength fails
My heart breaks
My courage is drowning in the waves
So I’ll choose to
Hear your voice
To listen for your whisper in the middle of the noise




Listening

Just tryin to fit in
You wanna be your own man
You wanna be independent
But you're on your own
Your daddy left you
With no one to look to
So you put on a brave face
And pretend that you're okay

They all know your name
But they don't see your pain
Cuz at the end of the game
You're still looking for love
When the cheers fade out
And all the lights go down
Nobody hears the shout 
Coming from your heart

I just want you to know
That you are not alone
And you are loved more than words can say
i just want you to see
He knows you're breaking
And he's saying "come to me, my child, come home"
Come home

You're a fighter
You have to be
Cuz bein a lifelong addict 
Isn't part of your dreams
So you try to be strong
You put up your fists
But you feel overcome
Like you just can't win this

You don't know why you're living
You can't see why you're here
All you see is your failure
All you see is your fear
So you turn all your hurting
Into scars on your skin
And when it seems there's no hope
You wanna throw the towel in

Saved by grace
He died in my place
And all of my sin
Was laid on Him
So I come to the cross
With empty hands
All else is a loss
It's all sinking sand

We all have a story
We all have pain
But there is freedom
Trusting His name
No matter where you are
No matter where you been
His arms are wide open
So run to him...just run to him

Stories

When I think I'm not beautiful
When I think that you wouldn't wanna love me
When I know I'm not worth it
When I feel like I'm altogether ugly
Ugly

You say to me "you're beautiful"
You say to me "I love you"
And it's not because you're perfect all the time
It's 'cause you're mine

When I think I'm so messed up 
That you wouldn't want to take me back
When I know I'm too broken
For you to put me back together again
Again

I know your every thought
I know every beat of your heart
I've loved you since before the world began
And the reason that you're beautiful
Is because I've made you clean
And you could never mean more 
Than you do right now to me

Because You're Mine
