Written by Joshua Aaron, Don Poythress, and Krissy Nordhoff 

Verse 1
Glory to God, peace on earth 
Goodwill to all men 
Here with the angels we sing 
And as He reigns from above 
May He reign in our hearts 
Our sovereign Lord and King 

Chorus
Oh, Immanuel 
Oh, Immanuel
Oh, Immanuel 
God with us

Verse 2
Hallelujah to the One who made His home among us 
And took our sin away 
Oh, hallelujah! 
He has torn the veil 
That separated 
To bring us face to face 

Bridge
Glory, glory, glory to God in the highest 
Worthy, worthy, worthy is our Messiah

Slow down
Let our worries pass on by
The world will still be spinning
‘comes round, we don’t have to try
Slow down,
Look me in the eye
We can breathe each other’s silence
Shine truth where all these questions lie

There’s a blur here like the skipping of a page
Our stories lost in it, random as we stumble through the days
And a bullet list
We’ve been crossing off the lines
Starting days with dreams of peace
And ending nights with wine
Do you think that there might be another way?
Slow down
Let our worries pass on by
The world will still be spinning
‘comes round, we don’t have to try
Slow down,
Look me in the eye
We can breathe each other’s silence
Shine truth where all these questions lie

Are we stuck now, on a merry go round in time?
I know you’re here, we’ve faded… to the background, of some seek and find
And I caught a glimpse 
of how our love began
I’d quit this race a thousand times, as long as we are hand in hand
Do you think that there might be another way?

All my sisters weary from the fight

All the candles in the night

Door Swinging Wide (FAWM Song #1)

Definitely redoing this, I did one take on the chords for the piano and pad, so this means I really didn't have timing right at all on the last section, but I need this to at least keep the idea!  I'm doing FAWM this year, which means writing 14 songs in 28 days, so production is not anywhere close to priority right now. ;)

VERSE 1

Em C G D
Life is like a sacred book missing the most profound pages
Em C G D
there's a pursuit for meaning through the ages
Em C G D
Unrelenting as the impulse to breath
Am Em 
longing to leave
Em C G D
The ceaseless thought that our eyes were meant to see more
Am Em 
What we're made for

CHORUS

C.   Em.    D.    C
How can one grasp the infinite
Am.  Em.   D.   C 
yet you have placed it in our hands
C  Em    D    C
They'll be no sweeter praise to leave my lips
Am Em   D   C
then when I first see the throne of the lamb 

VERSE 2

Em C G D
Are we meant to trace the stars with our fingers
Em C G D
Perhaps life is measured by the moments we linger
Em  C  G  D
Feeling your heart beating mine
Am Em 
our certain sign
Em C G D
You are the distant echo calling us by name
Am Em 
Our greatest gain


BRIDGE
Em C  G  D 
How long before we hear the voice that shakes thunder
How long before we wake up from this slumber
How long before you peel back space and time
How long before two worlds entwine


CDEm  Em F G 
Holy, Holy
How long before we truly see what Holy really means
How long before we   bow before the king of kings

Feel the height in your lungs
Rushing over whatever may come
Called up by the sun
Toes touching clouds

We'll tame the sky
We'll run past the lies
Fly, bird, wont you fly

The dirt cracks and falls off you
Crumbles in your hand as you break through
Part of you wants to stay 
and part of you wants to go

We'll tame the sky
We'll run past the lies
Fly, bird, wont you fly

We'll tame the sky
We'll run past the lies
Fly, bird, wont you fly

Tame the Sky (with Jennifer Foss)

This was a "rush write" Jen and I did for a listing looking for "sweet singer-songwriter songs" for advertising use.

Verse 1
When I opened up the first page of our story 
I found the sweetest phrase in your smile
We're binding two stories to make them one 

Chorus
We're the book I want to read over and over again
You're the beginning, middle and the end of my love story

Verse 2
Let's cozy up, settle in, start this next chapter
The lovliest refrain is your spontaneous laughter
I'll be cliche and say you're my happily ever after

Chorus
We're the book I want to read over and over again
You're the beginning, middle and the end of my love story

Verse 3
Cover to cover there is no other
Line by line you've got me intertwined
From my point of view there's nothing we can't do

Chorus
We're the book I want to read over and over again
You're the beginning, middle and the end, oh 
We're the book I want to read over and over again
You're the beginning, middle and the end of my love story

Love Story (with Jennifer Foss)

Fun halloween song about a monster party...

Monster in the USA

Artist: Future Kings Of Denmark
Producer: Steven Guiles
Writers: Steven Wesley Guiles & Amanda West

Lyrics
Verse 1
When I see you smile my body sings
so loud it makes it hard to think
It's like you bring the sun to life
when you're here sat next to me

Pre chorus
But when you hint that maybe we are through
I can't believe don't want it to be true
 
Chorus
Stay with me
The air lies empty without you
Please stay with me
Can't bear to feel life without you
Please just stay with me
Stay with me

Verse 2
When I hear your voice I melt soft
in a river at your feet
Making everything I feel
so full of life and so complete

Pre chorus
But when you hint that maybe we are through
I can't believe don't want it to be true
 
Chorus
Stay with me
The air lies empty without you
Please stay with me
Can't bear to feel life without you
Please just stay with me
Stay with me

Bridge
Sunrise without a sun
Always clouds over the moon
Like my heart is tightly wrung
Knowing this is maybe our end run

Chorus
Stay with me
The air lies empty without you
Please stay with me
Can't bear to feel life without you
Please just stay with me
Stay with me

coming soon

Stay With Me

Reaching Out
copyright 2019 by Bob Porri and Jennifer Foss https://soundcloud.com/jennifer-foss-502334607

Verse 1
We've all been wandering  around
Hoping to find something real     
I see the same look in your eye 
Don't turn away 
Don't turn away

Chorus
I'm reaching out to you
The world is waiting to see what you will do
I'm reaching out to you 
Believe, Believe we are for you
Believe, Believe we are for you 

Verse 2
What good's a kingdom gained
if your walls are too high and you can't walk away
You've paid enough in pain
Come with me
Come be free

Chorus
I'm reaching out to you
The world is waiting to see what you will do
I'm reaching out to you 
Believe, Believe we are for you

Chorus
I'm reaching out to you
The world is waiting to see what you will do
I'm reaching out to you 
Believe, Believe we are for you
Believe, Believe we are for you
We are for you
We are for you

Reaching Out (with Jennifer Foss)

In these turbulent times Stand Strong & Remember Who We Are!  Lean on our Heavenly Father, He will provide the pillars of fire to shield us. This song came to me quickly, almost prophetically in 2016.  It is a song of Hope and Courage and Freedom.  It is difficult for me to imagine living in a Mad Max world, but that was what I was envisioning when I wrote this.  I hope you will enjoy the journey!  Thanks to Wild Bill on Bass and Electric Guitar, Tim Stockdale on Drums and Keith Engling at the helm Engineering the project.  A special Thanks to Victoria Hayes Engling for allowing me to use her amazing photo for this release!

How Long

Jennifer Foss
