Alabaster Jar

Artist: Gateway Worship
Album: Wake Up the World



Verse 1:

This alabaster jar
Is all I have of worth
I break it at Your feet Lord
It's less than You deserve
You're far more beautiful
More precious than the oil
The sum of my desires
And the fullness of my joy

Like You spilled Your blood
I spilled my heart
As an offering to my King


Chorus:

Here I am take me
As an offering
Here I am giving
Every heartbeat for Your glory
Take me, take me


Verse 2:

This time that I have left
Is all I have of worth
I lay it at Your feet Lord
It's less than You deserve
And though I've lived astray
And though my days are few
You gave Your life for me
So I will live my life for You

[Refrain]
[Chorus]

Worthy, worthy, You are worthy
Worthy is the Lord

You Are

Artist: Clint Brown


You Are - Clint Brown



You are the love of my life
You are the hope that I cling to
You mean more than this world to me
I wouldn't trade You for silver or gold
I wouldn't trade You for riches untold
You are
You are my everything

I couldn't take one step without You
I could never go on
I couldn't live one day without You
I don't have the strength
To make it on my own

Until the world stops turning
Until the stars fade from the sky
Until the sun stops rising
I'll need You in my life
And here's the reason why

Ayaw kong magkulang ng kabanalan Mo

Find Us Faithful

Artist: Steve Green
Album: Find Us Faithful



Verse 1:

We're pilgrims on the journey
Of the narrow road
And those who've gone before us line the way
Cheering on the faithful, encouraging the weary
Their lives a stirring testament to God's sustaining grace

Surrounded by so great a cloud of witnesses
Let us run the race not only for the prize
But as those who've gone before us
Let us leave to those behind us
The heritage of faithfulness passed on through godly lives


Chorus:

Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful
May the fire of our devotion light their way
May the footprints that we leave
Lead them to believe
And the lives we live inspire them to obey
Oh may all who come behind us find us faithful


Verse 2:

After all our hopes and dreams have come and gone
And our children sift though all we've left behind
May the clues that they discover and the memories they uncover
Become the light that leads them to the road we each must find

[Chorus]

Everything I've been through

Wishes and dreams that are yet to come true

My heart and my hands are lifted to you

And what do we have

All we possess
Are these lives we're living
That's what we give to you, Lord

Lord I offer you my life

Pag ibig ang siyang pumukaw
Sa ating puso at kalul'wa
At siyang nagdulot sa ating buhay

Di mapapawi kalian pa man
Sa puso't diwa tayo'y isa lamang
Kahit na tayo'y magkawalay

Magmahalan tayo't magtulungan

Kung anong ganda ng langit

At kay rami dung inaadmit lalo na

Kulang man ang ngipin
Magiging complete sa sakit mangangalit

[Chorus]

Pamaypay ay wala pati electric fan
Lalong wala doong aircondition
Wala ring ni isang bombero

Higanting pugon na hindi namamatay
Maladagat na apoy na walang humpay
Sure na sure sa yong naghihintay
kung tuluyang pasaway

[Chorus]

Ang lugar na yon ay iwasan
Mahal mo sa buhay please pagsabihan
Dun magkitakits sa kalangitan
Si Hesus tanging daan
Dun magkitakits sa kalangitan
Si Hesus tanging daan
Si Hesus tanging daan
Si Hesus tanging daan...

The Older I Get

Artist: Skillet



Verse 1:

The walls between
You and I
Always pushing us apart nothing left but scars fight after fight
The space between
Our calm and rage
started growing shorter, disappearing slowly day after day


Refrain:

I was sitting there waiting in my room for you
You were waiting for me too
And it makes me wonder


Chorus:

The older I get
Will I get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I didn't know then it would hurt like this but I think
The older I get
Maybe I'll get over it
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this


Verse 2:

The time between
Those cutting words
Built up our defenses never made no sense it just made me hurt
Do you believe
That time heals all wounds
It started getting better but it's easy not to fight when I'm not with you

[Refrain]
[Chorus]

Bridge:

What was I waiting for
I should've taken less and given you more
I should've weathered the storm
I need to say so bad
What were you waiting for
This could have been the best we ever had

[Chorus]

Altro:

I'm just getting older
I'm not getting over you I'm trying to
I wish it didn't hurt like this
It's been way too long for the times we missed
I can't believe it still hurts like this

Belly of the Whale

Artist: Newsboys



Up to my ears
In bitter tears.
Can't believe I've sunk this low
As I walk the plankton
Inner sanctum.
Got outta Dodge,
Sailed on a bon-less
Bon voyage.
You said North,
I headed South.
Tossed overboard.
Good Lord, that's a really large mouth...

I'm sleeping with fishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm highly nutritious here,
In the belly of the whale.
Bad food, lousy atmosphere.
I don't wanna bellyache.
How long is this gonna take?

Woke up this morning kinda blue,
Thinking through that age-old question:
How to exit a whale's digestion?
It might behoove me to be heaved.
Head out like a human comet.
Hmmm... I wonder what rhyme with comet.

I'm sleeping with fishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm highly nutritious here,
In the belly of the whale.
I'm ready to reappear.
I don't wanna bellyache.
Lord, how long's this gonna take?

End times, they come rolling around.
Enzymes, they come breaking us down to the core.
The good Lord grants we all get a second chance.

I'm one of the dishes here,
In the belly of the whale.
They say I'm delicious here,
In the belly of the whale.
Lord, please make him chuck it all.
It's a gut call
In the belly of the whale.

I'm in the belly of the whale.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly of the whale.
In the belly of the whale.
I'm in the belly...

In the belly of the whale
In an underwater jail
It's a tight squeeze.
It's a-gettin' to me,
But it's roomier
Than the tail.
Hey, sailor,
Got my flow free
Like a salmon to the sea
From the L.A. Symphony.
I'm a paddleboat
Paddlin' in their wake,
A fake free-styler,
But my unemployment pays.
I'm avoiding cliches
Like "whale of a tale" stale
Or "you can't keep
A good man down,"
'Cause you can
And I've been there, man.
But I've been expectorated.
I'm elated!
I'm free like Willie!
Happy Day!
Oops,
That's a bit of a cliche.

In the belly...

Everytime I Breathe

Artist: Big Daddy Weave



Verse 1:

I am sure all of heaven's heard me cry
As I tell You all the reasons why
This life is just too hard

But day by day
Without fail
I'm finding everything I need
And everything that You are
To me


Chorus:

Every time I breathe You seem a little bit closer
I never want to leave
I want to stay in Your warm embrace
Oh basking in the glory shining from Your face
And every time I get another glimpse of Your heart
I realize it's true
That You are so marvelous God
And I am so in love with You


Verse 2:

Now how could I after knowing One so great
Respond to You in any way
That's less than all I have to give
But by Your grace I want to love You not with what I say
But everyday
In a way that my life is lived

[Chorus]

Bridge:

Wrapped in Your mercy I want to live and never leave
I am held by how humble
Yet overwhelmed by Your majesty
Captured by grace and now I'm finding
I am free
You are marvelous God
And knowing You is everything

[Chorus]


Colored People

Artist: DC Talk



[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

Verse 1:

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, sir
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin

We've gotta come together
And thank the Maker of us all


Chorus:

We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
We've got a history so full of mistakes
And we are colored people who depend on a holy grace

[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

Verse 2:

A piece of canvas is only the beginning for
It takes on character with every loving stroke
This thing of beauty is the passion of an artists heart
By God's design, we are a skin kaleidoscope

We've gotta come together,
Aren't we all human after all?

[Chorus]

Bridge:

Ignorance has wronged some races
And vengeance is the Lord's
If we aspire to share this space
Repentance is the cure

[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

Well, just a day in the shoes of a color blind man
Should make it easy for you to see
That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
As a part of our anatomy

[Chorus]

We're colored people, and they call us the human race
[oh, colored people]
We're colored people, and we all gotta share this space
[yeah we've got to come together somehow]
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted world
[red and yellow, black and white]
We're colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl
[colored people, colored people, colored people, colored people, yeah]

Jesus Freak

Artist: DC Talk
Album: Jesus Freak


Verse 1:

Separated I cut myself clean
From a past that comes back in my darkest of dreams
Been apprehended by a spiritual force
And a grace that replaced all the me I've divorced

I saw a man with a tat on his big fat belly
It wiggled around like marmalade jelly
It took me a while to catch what it said
Cause I had to match the rhythm of his belly with my head
Jesus saves is what it raved in a typical tattoo green
He stood on a box in the middle of the city and claimed he had a dream


Chorus:

What will people think when they hear that I'm a Jesus Freak
What will people do when they find that it's true
I don't really care if they label me a Jesus Freak
Cause there ain't no disguising the truth


Verse 2:

Kamikaze my death it is gain
I've been marked by my maker a peculiar display
The high and lofty they see me as weak
Cause I won't live and die for the power they seek

There was a man from the desert with naps in his head
The sand that he walked was also his bed
The words that he spoke made the people assume
There wasn't too much left in the upper room
With scabs on his back and hair on his face
They thought he was strange by the locusts he ate
The Pharisee's tripped when they heard him speak
Until the king took the head of this Jesus Freak

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

Bridge:

People say I'm strange does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger
People say I'm strange does it make me a stranger
That my best friend was born in a manger

[Chorus]
[Chorus]

What will people think (What will people think)
What will people do (What will people do)
I don't really care (What else can I say)
Cause there ain't no disguising the truth (Jesus is the way)

Verse 1:

It smells so sweet outside today
The sun smiles down, I'm in the shade
I sit and think about all my friends and how good they are
But when today is yesterday
I know that things won't stay the same
But I know that the memories won't go to far


Pre-Chorus:

Round and round the world will turn
Lessons taught and lessons learned
Jesus gets us through the good and bad times
He lets me know that everything will be just fine


Chorus:

Everything will be just fine
Everything is gonna be fine
Everything will be just fine


Verse 2:

A year's passed since I wrote this song
A lot's gone right, a lot's gone wrong
But I know that Jesus has been there right by my side
And I see the sun still shines
It shines outside and in my life
And I know that everything is gonna be just fine

Who I Am Hates Who I've Been

Artist: Relient K
Album: Mmhmm



Verse 1:

I watched the proverbial sunrise
Coming up over the Pacific and
You might think I'm losing my mind,
But I will shy away from the specifics...

'Cause I don't want you to know where I am
'Cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been.

This is no place to try and live my life.


Pre-Chorus:

Stop right there. That's exactly where I lost it.
See that line. Well I never should have crossed it.
Stop right there. Well I never should have said
That it's the very moment that
I wish that I could take back.


Chorus:

I'm sorry for the person I became.
I'm sorry that it took so long for me to change.
I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again
'Cause who I am hates who I've been.
Who I am hates who I've been.


Verse 2:

I talk to absolutely no one.
Couldn't keep to myself enough.
And the things bottled inside have finally begun
To create so much pressure that I'll soon blow up.

I heard the reverberating footsteps
Synching up to the beating of my heart,
And I was positive that unless I got myself together,
I would watch me fall apart.

And I can't let that happen again
'cause then you'll see my heart
In the saddest state it's ever been.

This is no place to try and live my life.

[Pre-Chorus]
[Pre-Chorus]
[Chorus]

Bridge:

Who I am hates who I've been
And who I am will take the second chance you gave me.
Who I am hates who I've been
'Cause who I've been only ever made me...


Coda:

So sorry for the person I became.
So sorry that it took so long for me to change.
I'm ready to be sure I never become that way again
'cause who I am hates who I've been.
Who I am hates who I've been.

Defining Moment

Artist: Newsong



Verse 1:

There comes a time in every heart a time of real decision
When we reach the point of choosing how we will live our lives
All our hopes, all our dreams will rise up from that moment
The moment we surrender and choose to follow Christ

He's been waiting all our lives to hear us say
I am Yours, lord, take my hand and lead the way


Chorus:

When you believe He's all you need
That will be your defining moment
As you live your life walking in His light
Trusting Him completely
That will be, that will be your defining moment


Verse 2:

All I have, all I am is resting in His promise
The promise that He'll make me everything that I should be
I will live, I will die, for the cause He's set before me
To take this love inside my heart for all the world to see

All of heaven celebrates when they hear someone say
I am Yours, Lord, take my hand and lead the way

[Chorus]

Bridge:

His amazing grace is such a mystery,
How in an instant it can make your life complete

[Chorus]
[Chorus]
