Everybody wants to change the world
But no one wants to change themselves
Think we've got it all figured out
But where's the room for doubt
Everybody wants an answer now
But where's that trust we talk about
Cannot see when we are in the wrong
Humility will make us strong
We all know there's pain and hurt along
This road that we are riding on
Why can't we see that we are one
Singing different tunes to the same song
Believe me when I say that we are young
Truth is like the shining sun
A little bit of grace and all your Love
Remind us where we all come from
Why don't we start by looking inside?
and everyone, call their own bluff
The devil took a knife right to my throat
How it happened, heaven knows
She told me this is how the story goes
Luckily, I know there is a hope
And something tells me it's real close
I'm done with being left out in the cold
Think it's time to check in with my soul

Summertime Lullaby
02:32
|
|||
Catch the sun bouncing off the pavement
Summers on, all the houses vacant
Our stomping grounds while everyone is playing
The ice cream truck's not waiting
Clear my head of this seasonal depression
And In my stead use intentional discretion
While everyone is finally getting what they want
I am resurrecting
Hear the sound of the birds all singing
That time of year when wedding bells are ringing
Just look around, can't you see the beauty blossom
I will meet you there
So I sing 'til the morning comes to get me
And certainly I'll arise with joyous praising
And if I happen not to rise
I hope you'll take me
Home into your arms
La da da La da da
And if I happen not to rise
I hope you'll take me
Home into your arms
Da da da da

Something to Believe in
03:23
|

Feel so caught up in the world today
Like I'm carrying it all
Should remind myself it'll be okay
But the writing on the wall
Has got me terrified of every possibility
Head spinning
Heart racing
Always trying to keep it moving
Please catch me when
I'm falling
Cuz I need something to believe in
Da da da
Leave a message at the tone today
Need a moment to myself
Seems so near yet it's so far away
Hang my thoughts up on the shelf
And if you need me you can find me losing it
Head spinning
Heart racing
Always trying to keep it moving
Please catch me when
I'm falling
Cuz I need something to believe in
Head spinning
Heart racing
Always trying to keep it moving
Please catch me when
I'm falling
Cuz I need something to believe in
Da da da
Head spinning
Heart racing
Always trying to keep it moving
Please catch me when
I'm falling
Cuz I need something to believe in
Da da da
Da da da

It's You
03:02

Don't feel like myself without you
Can't let this feeling pass on through
Girl we've got something special
You make my life complete
It might sound crazy but you're the one for me
And it's You, it's You that I see
I only have eyes for You baby
Darling, take my hand
We can run and dance
Together forever
We won't look back
You make me believe in love again
You can take my heart and do whatever you please
Let's make our vows, get lost in now
I'm begging for more from the one I adore
And it's You, it's You that I see
I only have eyes for You baby
Darling, take my hand
We can run and dance
Together forever
We won't look back
I'm thinking we can do whatever
When we're together
You know it's true
I'm thinking we can whatever
When we're together, darling
Let's say I do
And it's You, it's You that I see
I only have eyes for You baby
Darling, take my hand
We can run and dance
Together forever
We won't look back, yeah
And it's You, it's You that I see
I only have eyes for You baby
Darling, take my hand
We can run and dance
Together forever
We won't look back

Sunshine (revisited)
03:59
|

I am gonna love you forever
Your mom and I
We're picking out your name
We'll never be the same
God, what was it that I did
To deserve this kid?
You are fearfully and so
Wonderfully made
I am overwhelmed
How do I do this well?
You are always gonna be
My sunshine, a part of me
You will be surrounded by so much love
Sent from up above
God, I won't believe my eyes
When I see my little guy
Your mom and I
We're kinda freaking out
But that won't stop us now
I am gonna love you forever
Always and forever
I am overwhelmed
How do I do this well
You are always gonna be
My sunshine, a part of me
I am overwhelmed
How do I do this well
You are always gonna be
My sunshine, a part of me
My sunshine, a part of me
My sunshine, a part of me

Floating
01:51

I
I'm figuring it out
But You
I wanna make you proud
Thank you for your patience
With me and all the grace
You give so effortlessly
I don't want to let you down
But I'm afraid my weakness now
Is worse than any time before
I'm floating

The State of Us
02:50
|
|||
Even before there's a word on my tongue
Even before I've conceived it
Here in my breath before any note sung
You are alive and infinite
Even as I turn my gaze from your face
And I'm fine with just running
Here in my heart before I could escape
You're alive and you love me
All of the times I thought I was alone
Even your presence was there with me then
There is so much I still have yet to know
Given the state that I found myself in
Even as I look away try to find
My own way in the unknown
You are at work in my heart while I sit
In the dark, calling me home
Even when I was at war with myself
You carried me in the depths of that hell
Someone once told me that it's the best thing
To comeback from it with a story to sing
So all of the time that I spent in my head
You were present within me
I just wish I would've known that I started
With everything I need

Seasons
03:18

Without the darkness I wouldn't know the Light
Within the chaos I find that I'm alright
Hallelujah
Without my doubts how could I know the truth
Within the mystery I keep finding you
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Without the questions
There'd be nowhere to strive
Within the seasons there must be death and life
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Send me through the fire
I want to be refined
Take my unbelief and open up my eyes
The more I seek you
The more I want to find
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Without my failures how would I know of Grace
Within the stillness the wandering meets its fate
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Without the answers now I can take it slow
Within the presence my heart will find a home
Hallelujah
