V1
I lie awake at night and pray
As the tears fall down my face
And the darkness whispers
And when the demons steal my sleep
I pray the Lord my soul to keep
And take these fears far from me 

C
Help me, don't let me be afraid
Of what I cannot change
Will You make me brave?
Hide me, safely underneath
The shadow of Your wings
Will you keep me here? 

V2
Despair is all that I can see
There’s nothing left in front of me
And my hands are empty
I cannot see what happens next 
This darkness lives inside my head
And it leaves me yearning 

C
Help me, don't let me be afraid
Of what I cannot change
Will You make me brave?
Hide me, safely underneath
The shadow of Your wings
Will you keep me here? 

B
If every day is another opportunity to start again
Will I find it inside to look for the light
No matter what’s around me?
Every day brings me closer
To the peace my soul is longing for
If I open my eyes and get through this night
I know that You will always 

C3
Help me
You won't let me be afraid
Of what I cannot face
You will make me brave
You'll hide me
Safely underneath 
The shadow of Your wings
You will keep me here

Phindile

V1
Burning warmth, climbing the sky
Time began when the greater light appeared
The heavens gleamed, all from His word spoken
New and bright, heat and fire
Competing with nothing
The sun rules the day 

V2
Another orb, mysterious sight 
With secrets untold, into the night she beams
The dark now seen, varying in glory 
Glowing height, the lesser light
Bathing the heavens
The moon guides the night

Chorus
Prophecies and promises
Signs of times, of days and years 
Innumerable in their glory
These very lights tell a story

V3 
Named and counted, glimmering lights
Knowingly placed, towering high above the ground
Stretched out, Yah breathed and stars were born to
Separate, night and day
Guarding the heavens
Foretelling the times

V4 
One by one, He calls them out
They wait like an army, following only One
The holy Yah, moving to His voice on
This fourth day, they take their place
He looked all around Him
And said it was good

Chorus
Prophecies and promises
Signs of times, of days and years 
Innumerable in their glory
These very lights tell a story

B
One day the sun will halt its setting 
To see a battle won with outstretched arms
One day the moon will give no light and
The powers of the heavens will be shaken
One day the stars will guide the wise men
Right to the feet of the promised King
These lights will leave their chosen places 
And fall down to the earth again 
But for now they shine

Chorus
Prophecies and promises
Signs of times, of days and years 
Innumerable in their glory
These very lights tell His story

Lights

V1
Before there was light, the void still unknown 
As the spirit of Yah, moved through the formless 
The face of the deep, the unending waters

V2
Hovering high over the surface
The silence grew loud, His voice now had spoken
Bidding in light, a new separation 

C
And as the words echoed out, creation came to be
Heaven's glory all around
The throne above the fertile ground
Encased in a mystery, a mystery

O
Let the water rise all around
Let the water rise with a sound
Let the water rise all around 
Let the water rise without a sound

Waters

V1
My sin has scorched the walls
Of solid stone and empty wells
My eyes have ceased to see
The truth of the lies inside of me

V2
Nothing is as it seems
How can you trust what it is you see
Nothing is as it seems
As the fear I see takes a hold of me

Chorus
My heart no longer beating
As I choose to save myself
I’m just a dead man walking
What’s the point of saving
If all I save is myself
If all I save is myself 

V3
Break free from what they show you
As the puppets hold onto your strings
The world is on fire
As we worship ourselves and all our things

Chorus
Our hearts are no longer beating
As we choose to save ourselves 
Are we just dead men walking?
What’s the point of saving
If all we save is ourselves 
Our hearts are no longer beating
As we choose to save ourselves 
Are we just dead men walking?
What’s the point of saving
If all we save is ourselves
If all we save is ourselves 

Nothing is as it seems
Nothing is as it seems

Bridge
Walk by faith and not by sight
The things of this world are crumbling
It’s time to take up the fight
For the Kingdom of Heaven is coming

Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is coming...

The World Is On Fire

V1
You put shackles on the sea, confining the deep
A name both terrible and glorious 
The only Lord Almighty
No human can handle the splendor You bear
And Your great anger to offenders
Is unendurable
All things tremble at Your power

Chorus
Yet immeasurable and unsearchable
is Your promised mercy
For You are the Lord Most High, of great compassion
Relenting at my suffering

V2
More are the sins I have committed than the sand of the sea
Unworthy to turn my eyes to heaven
Provoking righteous fury
I multiply my own offenses, now they're weighing me down
Rejected for the sinner that I am
Condemned to the depths
Unforgivable in Your sight

Chorus
Yet immeasurable and unsearchable
is Your promised mercy
For You are the Lord Most High, of great compassion
Relenting at my suffering

Outro
And now I bend the knee of my heart
Imploring for Your kindness
You have promised, promised
Repentance and forgiveness
And in me You will manifest Your goodness
For, unworthy as I am, You will save me
According to Your mercy
Your great mercy
