American Dream”

All work no play may have made Jack a dull boy But all work no God has left Jack with a lost soul But he's moving on full steam He's chasing the American dream And he's gonna give his family finer things

“Not this time son I've no time to waste Maybe tomorrow we'll have time to play” And then he slips into his new BMW And drives farther and farther and farther away

Cause he works all day and tries to sleep at night He says things will get better; Better in time

[Chorus] So he works and he builds with his own two hands And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands His kingdom stands

Well his American Dream is beginning to seem More and more like a nightmare With every passing day "Daddy, can you come to my game?" "Oh Baby, please don't work late." Another wasted weekend And they are slipping away

'Cause he works all day and lies awake at night He tells them things are getting better Just take a little more time

[Chorus] So he works and he builds with his own two hands And he pours all he has in a castle made with sand But the wind and the rain are comin' crashing in Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands His kingdom stands

He used to say, "Whoever dies with the most toys wins" But if he loses his soul, what has he gained in the end I'll take a shack on the rock Over a castle in the sand

Now he works all day and cries alone at night It's not getting any better Looks like he's running out of time

[Chorus] 'Cause he worked and he built with his own two hands And he poured all he had in a castle made with sand But the wind and the rain are coming crashing in Time will tell just how long his kingdom stands His kingdom stands

All they really wanted was you All they really wanted was you All they really wanted was you

What If His People Prayed Lyrics Artist(Band):Casting Crowns

What if the armies of the Lord Picked up and dusted off their swords Vowed to set the captive free And not let satan have one more

What if the Church, for heaven's sake Finally stepped up to the plate Took a stand upon God's promise And stormed hell's rusty gates

Chorus I: What if His people prayed And those who bear His name Would humbly seek His faith, yeah And turn from their old ways

And what would happen if we prayed For those raised up to lead the way Then maybe kids in school could pray And unborn children see light of day

What if the life that we pursue Came from a hunger for the truth What if the family turned to Jesus Stopped asking Oprah what to do

Chorus I: What if His people prayed And those who bear His name Would humbly seek His face yeah And turn from their own way Chorus II: He said that He would hear His promise has been made He'll answer loud and clear, yeah If only we would pray

Bridge: If My people called by My name If they'll humble themselves and pray If My people called by My name If they'll humble themselves and pray

Choruses: What if His people prayed And those who bear His name Would humbly seek His face, yeah And turn from their old ways He said that He would hear His promise has been made He'll answer loud and clear yeaah If only we would pray

(Choruses and bridge ad lib)

Casting Crowns : Until The Whole World Hears Lyrics

Lord I want to feel your heart and see the world through your eyes I want to be your hands and feet I want to live a life that leads

chorus ready yourselves ready yourselves Let us shine the light of Jesus in the darkest night ready yourselves ready yourselves May the powers of darkness tremble as our praises rise Until the whole world hears Lord we are calling out Lifting up Your name for all to hear the sound Like voices in the wilderness we're crying out as the day draws near we'll sing until the whole world hears

Lord let your sleeping giant arise Catch the demons by surprise Holy nation sanctified Let this be our battle cry

chorus

we'll sing until the whole world hears we'll sing until the whole world hears

Want to be your hands and feet Want to be a life that leads To see you set the captive free Until the whole world hears and I pray that they will see more of you and less of me Lord I want my life to be the song You sing Until the whole world hears Lord we are calling out Lifting your name up for all to hear the sound Like voices in the wilderness we're crying out as the day draws near we'll sing until the whole world hears we'll sing until the whole world hears we'll sing until the whole world hears we'll sing until the whole world hears we'll sing until the whole world hears we'll sing until the whole world hears

Slow Fade lyrics

Be careful little eyes what you see It's the second glance that ties your hands As darkness pulls the strings

Be careful little feet where you go For it's the little feet behind you That are sure to follow

It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray

And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away People never crumble in a day

It's a slow fade It's a slow fade

Be careful little ears what you hear When flattering leads to compromises The end is always near

Be careful little lips what you say For empty words and promises Leave broken hearts astray

It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray

And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away People never crumble in a day

The journey from your mind to your hands Is shorter than you're thinking Be careful if you think you stand You just might be sinking

It's a slow fade When you give yourself away It's a slow fade When black and white are turned to gray

And thoughts invade, choices are made A price will be paid When you give yourself away

People never crumble in a day Daddies never crumble in a day Families never crumble in a day

Oh, be careful little eyes what you see Oh, be careful little eyes what you see For the Father up above is looking down in love Oh, be careful little eyes what you see

If We Are The Body It's crowded in worship today As she slips in trying to fade into the faces The girls teasing laughter is carrying farther than they know Farther than they know

CHORUS But if we are the body Why aren't His arms reaching? Why aren't His hands healing? Why aren't His words teaching? And if we are the body Why aren't His feet going? Why is His love not showing them there is a way? There is a way [ Casting Crowns Lyrics are found on www.songlyrics.com ]

A traveler is far away from home He sheds his coat and quietly sinks into the back row The weight of their judgmental glances Tells him that his chances are better out on the road

CHORUS Jesus paid much too high a price For us to pick and choose who should come And we are the body of Christ

CHORUS Jesus is the way

Does Anybody Hear Her lyrics Songwriters: Hall, John Mark; She is running A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction She is trying but the canyon's ever widening In the depths of her cold heart So she sets out on another misadventure just to find She's another two years older And she's three more steps behind

Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see? Or does anybody even know she's going down today? Under the shadow of our steeple With all the lost and lonely people Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

She is yearning for shelter and affection That she never found at home She is searching for a hero to ride in To ride in and save the day And in walks her prince charming And he knows just what to say Momentary lapse of reason And she gives herself away

Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see? Or does anybody even know she's going down today? Under the shadow of our steeple With all the lost and lonely people Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see?

If judgment looms under every steeple If lofty glances from lofty people Can't see past her scarlet letter And we've never even met her

If judgment looms under every steeple If lofty glances from lofty people Can't see past her scarlet letter And we've never even met her Never even met her, never even met her

Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see? Or does anybody even know she's going down today? Under the shadow of our steeple With all the lost and lonely people Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me

Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see? Does anybody even know she's going down today? Under the shadow of our steeple With all the lost and lonely people Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me Does anybody hear her? Does anybody see?

He is running a hundred miles an hour In the wrong direction

More Beautiful you- Jonny Diaz

Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine Says she wants to look that way But her hair isn't straight her body isn't fake And she's always felt overweight

Well little girl fourteen I wish that you could see That beauty is within your heart And you were made with such care your skin your body and your hair Are perfect just the way they are

[Chorus] There could never be a more beautiful you Don't buy the lies disguises and hoops they make you jump through You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do So there could never be a more beautiful you

Little girl twenty-one the things that you've already done Anything to get ahead And you say you've got a man but he's got another plan Only wants what you will do instead

Well little girl twenty-one you never thought that this would come You starve yourself to play the part But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true And he'll treat you like the jewel you are

[chorus]

So turn around you're not too far To back away be who you are To change your path go another way It's not too late you can be saved If you feel depressed with past regrets The shameful nights hope to forget Can disappear they can all be washed away By the one who's strong can right your wrongs Can rid your fears dry all your tears And change the way you look at this big world He will take your dark distorted view And with His light He will show you truth And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl [chorus]

Falling Inside The Black lyrics Songwriters: Cooper, John Landrum; Tonight I'm so alone This sorrow takes a hold Don't leave me here so cold Never want to be so cold

Your touch used to be so kind Your touch used to give me life I've waited all this time I've wasted so much time

Don't leave me alone 'Cause I barely see at all Don't leave me alone

I'm falling in the black Slipping through the cracks Falling to the depths can I ever go back Dreaming of the way it used to be Can you hear me

Falling in the black Slipping through the cracks Falling to the depths can I ever go back Falling inside the black Falling inside, falling inside the black

You were my source of strength I've traded everything That I love for this one thing Stranded in the offering

Don't leave me here like this Can't hear me scream from the abyss And now I wish for you my desire Don't leave me alone 'cause I barely see at all Don't leave me alone

I'm falling in the black Slipping through the cracks Falling to the depths can I ever go back Dreaming of the way it used to be Can you hear me?

Falling in the black Slipping through the cracks Falling to the depths can I ever go back Falling inside the black Falling inside, falling inside the black, black, black, black

Falling in the black Slipping through the cracks

Falling in the black Slipping through the cracks Falling to the depths can I ever go back Dreaming of the way it used to be Can you hear me?

Falling in the black Slipping through the cracks Falling to the depths can I ever go back Falling inside the black Can you hear me?

Falling inside the black Can you hear me? Falling inside the black Can you hear me?

Falling inside Falling inside Falling inside Falling inside the black

O come, O come, Thou Lord of might, Who to Thy tribes, on Sinai's height, In ancient times did'st give the Law, In cloud, and majesty and awe. Rejoice! Rejoice! Emmanuel Shall come to thee, O Israel.

O Come, O Come Emmanuel – Christmas Carol Music and lyrics O Come, O Come Emmanuel (latin) Veni, veni Emmanuel! Captivum solve Israel! Qui gemit in exilio, Privatus Dei Filio. Gaude, gaude, Emmanuel Nascetur pro te, Israel.

Veni, O Jesse Virgula; Ex hostis tuos ungula, De specu tuos tartari Deduc et antro barathri

Veni, veni O Oriens! Solare nos adveniens, Noctis depelle nebulas, Dirasque noctis tenebras.

Veni clavis Davidica; Regna reclude caelica; Fac iter tutum superum, Et claude vias inferum.

Veni, veni Adonaï! Qui populo in Sinai Legem dedisti vertice, In Maiestate gloriae.
