LIke all things knowing, its the beginning Ancient messages line heart walls Beliefs lined in talents or talons. whichever we prefer Questions fill fingers as she shadows through the balance picking sound out of that shining self. Make no compromise, draw lines, keep eye on divine health Navigate the bars, the drums, the pull, the real, the plight Make no mistake, there will be the strife Make no mistake, there will be the strife Be no mind on mine, this be the fight Right?

Your next door neighbor's on the street He has no food to eat You drive by every single day And say all you can do is pray Do you see him? Could you be him? Find a way to love (when no one's around to see you) Find a way to love (in spite of all you've been through) Find a way to love (when no one seemed to love you) Find a way to love ('cause it's what we're supposed to do) Feels like all her hope is gone (everything she does, it just goes wrong) Everything that can goes wrong She calls on all her family (all her family) Her friends, and those in ministry Won't they help her? Will they answer?

There is so much that I can't explain When I think of all You've done All the dangers You have kept from me And all the battles You have won Lord, I thank You I get on my knees And I praise You For everything Lord, You've been so You've been good to me And I'm grateful for Your love For giving me grace (God, I'm grateful) For taking my place (God, I'm grateful) For living again (God, I'm grateful) For reigning in Heaven (Oh God, I'm grateful) I take so much for granted Like I made it on my own And I forget that without You I'd be living life alone Lord, I'm sorry I get on my knees Please forgive me For everything Lord, You've been so You've been good to me And I'm grateful for Your love So, don't you think that i won't give Him praise I lift my voice, my heart. My hands, I raise When I wake up, When I go out, He's been so good to me He's been so good, He's been so good, He's been so good to me

Follow Me 04:09
There was a girl who didn't know which way to turn So she went and asked a stranger "Excuse me. Do you know how to get home?" He looked and smiled like He'd known her all of her life And said "I do but would you mind if I asked you where you're coming from?" She said "I've gotten lost and strayed far away from my Father. If its not too much can you help me please?" Follow me. I'll take you home. I'll help you find your way Follow me. It won't be long. Soon everything will be okay. Don't worry about it Stick with me and you'll get... Home. So, as they journeyed along the narrow path It seemed as if they had walked forever and the girl stopped on the side just to rest she said "I don't think I can take another step. I feel so tired, I might just die. I thought You said that you knew the way home." Again, He smiled that same peculiar smile And said "I know but it's hard only for a while. Just take my hand and walk with me another mile." Follow me. I'll take you home. I'll help you find your way Follow me. It won't be long. Soon everything will be okay. Don't worry about it Stick with me and you'll get... Back to the place where you never felt ashamed All your fear and all your pride drifted away For some reason now you've allowed those things to stay My child, you're bound but I have the key for your chains More and more the girl began to trust the stranger and she swore that she had seen Him somewhere She asked if they had ever met before He wondered when she would come to her senses and said "Child, we talked everyday and since then, I've been to your house and knocked on your door." Now the girl recognized who she'd been traveling with this whole time He said "Do you realize that I'm the man who died to save your life?" If you Follow me. I'll take you home. I'll help you find your way Follow me. It won't be long. Soon everything will be okay. Don't worry about it Stick with me and you'll get... Home. Don't be like the girl who lost her way trying to get hold of her own fate There's an easier way to get Home

I know its been so hard I know you feel alone But you're not. I've been here all along That's why I sing this song I'm your God So trust and never doubt You don't have to figure out your life I'm here until the end I can be your best friend Heaven's waiting, My arms are open All I really want is for you to be here with Me, to be here with Me x2 The serpent's working hard to take you away from me He knows your greatest faults He leads and guides the lost But I created you from the dust Satan will never touch what is Mine (and you are Mine) So leave your sinful ways Follow me all your days I can't explain... All I really want is for you to be here wit hMe, to be here with me x2 I don't care what I have to do to hold you in My arms I'll part the sea for you I'll paint the trees blue More than i want the sun to shine More than I want the birds to fly All I really want All I really want All I really want...is you

I just can't help myself 'Cause I know that I've done wrong Just to think of where Your love placed me 'Cause its hell where I belong So I'll go and tell the ones I know About how far I've come And how now because of sacrifice My new home is God's Kingdom Can't help myself (x4) I had the chance to walk away when I stood outside But instead I walked right in Pulled up a chair, and rolled the dice And now I know that I had been such a fool Accepting everything in my life but You But You still called me to Your arms And I can't help myself 'Cause I know that I've done wrong Just to think of where Your love placed me 'Cause its hell where I belong So I'll go and tell the ones I know About how far I've come And how now because of sacrifice My new home is God's Kingdom Can't help myself (x4) Go back in time two thousand years and you'll see for yourself just how one Man can leave His home To save the whole world from hell He could've stayed in Heaven up above And kept His name spotless like a dove But my cross He took in Love...for me I just can't help myself 'Cause I know that I've done wrong Just to think of where Your love placed me 'Cause its hell where I belong So I'll go and tell the ones I know About how far I've come And how now because of sacrifice My new home is God's Kingdom Can't help myself (x4) Can't help the burning inside That some don't understand When I look at my life And how He saved the wretch I am

Sometimes a monster of thought will break into She and friend make ritual round in locality But its different Friendly sound of the crowds and the atmosphere seems malleable Makes great for...Dreaming Scripture my mission Mediocre's what I see and its pensive Ebbing dreams on my mind, on the verge My concern's that my words will never leave my extension And many other thoughts there (So, what's after school?) Like I really got a part there. Blank face 'cause my fate feels the same But what's fate next to faith? Like I'm really getting lost there. "Stay focused. Oh, it's so easy." Hard enough to even breathe. Watch the air leave me Long week, body weak. Come home, find a zone. But I'm still trippin' over dreaming. Like, what's the meaning?

In Your Arms 06:10
From the dawn of time You had a plan You breathed Your breath of life Into a man And You got down on Your knees And formed his face You called him Your son With him You embraced Do the same for me Come mold my heart And let me dwell In Your arms... There I find love (In Your arms) There I find joy (In Your arms) There I find hope (In Your arms) There I find You Great and marvelous are the works of Your hand You know the number of The grains of sand And You know all of my thoughts My every desire You're All-Mighty God You never get tired So here I stand Don't turn me away Please let me dwell In Your arms... There I find love (In Your arms) There I find joy (In Your arms) There I find hope (In Your arms) There I find You You raised a man from the dead You multiplied loaves of bread All I ask is You hold me in Your Arms

I don't even need a rhythm As long as Your dancing close to me I believe I can do anything 'Cause I know You believe in me You are love. All Your love I feel it all around the world! Too many words I just wanna dance with You I don't care who I am. I just wanna be one with You Grace is really all I ever needed And You give it to me freely If You want me to stay, I'll stay. You want me to go, I'll go. But I need You with me Oh, every night and every day I need Your love all around me You are love. Oh, Your love I feel it all around the world Too many words, I just wanna dance with You I don't care who I am, I just wanna be one with You There's nothing left to say, just take my hand in Yours I'll follow every step. I'll go where You go

I've been a fool for doing this on my own When I knew that I needed Your help I just wanted to gain some self control And start fixing "me" myself But now, I know what to do I see all that I need is You Fix me, Jesus. I take myself away I'm willing to let go of what I think I know There's so much more that You can do Here's my heart. I'm calling out to You I feel You have already done too much for someone as worthless as me I'm selfish and I haven't learned to trust Full of sin. Full of pride and greed. See, Lord? Here I go again. Taking the wheel when You can Fix me, Jesus. I take myself away I'm willing to let go of what I think I know There's so much more that You can do Here's my heart. I'm calling out to You (repeat)

about

Making a profit from this album is a goal but making a connection to my fans is more important. To reach more people and make more music, money is needed. "It's kind of counterintuitive for artists. They don't want to ask for things but it's not easy to ask. And a lot of artists have a problem with this. Asking makes you vulnerable." (Amanda Palmer) The album does have a base price, but If you feel like you'd want to give more, feel free! Thank you so much for listening! Enjoy the music :)
