SHELTER ME
(Twila LaBar/Gina Boe)

Vocalist - Missi Stearns
Track Produced by Kris Crunk
 
I’VE BEEN THROUGH SOME DARK DAYS
HAD MY SHARE OF HEARTACHES
WONDERED IF I’D MAKE IT THROUGH
THOUGHT THAT IT WOULD BREAK ME
BUT SOMEHOW IT HAS MADE ME
STRONGER IN MY FAITH IN YOU
SO I CAN TAKE WHATEVER BRINGS ME DOWN
'CAUSE I KNOW WHERE MY REFUGE CAN BE FOUND..

CHORUS
SHELTER ME (WHEN I’M WEAK AND WEARY)
COVER ME (BE MY SANCTUARY)
LET YOUR ARMS OF MERCY HOLD ME SO CLOSE
SHELTER ME  (WHEN I’M WEAK AND WEARY) 
I WILL BE  (IN YOUR SANCTUARY)
SAFE WITHIN YOUR PRESENCE
NEVER LET GO
SHELTER ME

I DON’T HAVE THE ANSWERS
MAY NOT UNDERSTAND IT
TRUST IS ALL I CAN DO
IT RAINS UPON THE RIGHTEOUS
SO I HAVE JUST DECIDED
WHO I AM TO QUESTION YOU
AND EVERY TIME THE STORMS COME ROLLING IN
I WILL CHOOSE TO RUN TO YOU AGAIN
AND CRY….


BRIDGE
HIDE ME IN THE SHADOW OF YOUR WINGS
YOU ARE WHERE I FIND MY PEACE

CAN'T TAKE MY JOY
(Twila LaBar/Sue C. Smith)

Vocalist - Missi Stearns
Track Produced by Kris Crunk


SOMETIMES THE ENEMY WILL TRY 
TO ROB ME BLIND
OF THE PEACE OF MIND MY GOD HAS GIVEN ME
HE SETS THE SNARES AND EVEN DARES
TO TEAR ME DOWN
BUT BY FAITH MY WORDS RESOUND WITH AUTHORITY....

CHORUS
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY JOY AWAY
YOU CAN'T STEAL MY HAPPINESS
I'LL STAND RIGHT HERE AND SAY
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY JOY AWAY
YOU WON'T TURN MY HEART AROUND
YOU MOVE ME FROM THIS GROUND
GONNA STAND RIGHT HERE AND SAY
YOU CAN'T TAKE MY JOY AWAY

WHEN TROUBLE TRIES TO TEST MY WILL
I'LL PRAY UNTIL
IT IS BOUND IN HEAVEN AS ON EARTH
FOR I BELIEVE THE BATTLE'S WON
IT SHALL BE DONE
AND THAT TRIAL IS OVERCOME WHEN I SPEAK THIS WORD...

VAMP
YOU MAY COME TO DESTROY ME
BUT YOU CAN'T TAKE MY JOY FROM ME
I'M AN OVERCOMER BY MY TESTIMONY

CAN'T TAKE MY JOY (DEMO)

FORGIVE
Written by Twila LaBar/Greg Bieck/Maurice Carter

Vocalist - Missi Stearns
Track Produced by Greg Bieck

Let’s get down to the business
It’s a matter of forgiveness It ain’t easy to let go of the pain
But the one thing to remember
On the subject of surrender
It’s a choice that we all have to make 
Time and time again… 

Chorus
Forgive, forgive, the promise is
It frees us and heals us
Forgive, forgive, let go and live
Release it and feel the love

The fact is still concerning
That I am undeserving
But His compassion is my saving grace
So I’m praying I’m a witness
Of the power of forgiveness
Because this is the only road to take
Time and time again…..

Feel the love
Feel the love

Bridge
When you’ve been mistreated
And you don’t know the reason why
Don’t you be defeated
Cause everybody goes through it some times
So we gotta be like Jesus
Learn to give, learn to break and bend
Time and time again…..
