Parable Song 05:57
The sower goes out to sow the seed Mt 13:3 The prodigal son is filled with greed Lk 15:12 And five virgins are turned away Mt 25:11-12 The fig tree withers and the banquet's filled Mt 21:20 The sand man’s ruined and the lepers are healed Mt 7:27 And an unjust servant will have to pay Mt 18:34 A reluctant son he does the task Mt. 21:9 Good gifts are given to those who ask Mt 7:11 And the workers are paid what is fair Mt 20:13-15 A man lights a lamp, he puts it on a stand Mt 5:15 Another finds a treasure and he buys the land Mt 13:44 And a tree is known by the fruit it bears Mt 7:17-19 And those who have ears ... let them hear Mk 4:9 And those who have ears ... let them hear Mk 4:9 Well, the first are last and the last are first Mk 10:31 Drink from the well and you'll never thirst Jn 4:13-14 And the narrow gate is entered by a few Mt 7:14 A man stands righteous, one beats his chest Lk 18:10-14 Take my yoke and you will find rest Mt 11:29-30 And the kingdom of God will come to you Mk 4:11 Chorus Jesus stands at your door and knocks Rv 3:20 Saying build your life upon the solid rock Mt 7:24-25 You will know the peace I have for you Jn 14:27 Draw near to me, I'll draw near to you Calling out to those who hear Jn 10:16 Become a child and draw near Mk 10:15 And know the peace I have for you Chorus

Blue Waters 04:05
How could I ever live without You Eighteen years searching for the springs Lost out in the world alone and broken Then one day I found You Now my heart does sing Blue waters on the bayou Living waters from the Son My soul is satisfied with Jesus Seems like my life has just begun I've looked at life from the bottom I’ve looked at life from the top I drank a lot of poisoned livin' Then one day You found me Now my heart does sing Chorus

Love Song 45 03:58
Seems like nothing can touch me I see so clear this wondermous Only to find my works of silver and gold Are just stubble in this burning fire In return for my stone cold heart You gave me Your love You give me Your love My words come back to haunt me It echoes louder and louder inside my head Wraps my soul in condemnation Only to hear a choir of angels Chorus Your love ... I feel my prayers like icy hands Reaching up, bouncing off from the ceiling Oh Lord, send me a messenger with a message To warm my soul ... I tied this stone around my throat Release me from the weight of it Underneath these cold, cold waters Are Your everlasting arms Chorus

Invitation 06:09
Step up closer and be not afraid His foot has crushed the serpent's head The sting of death has been done away Sealed in blood for eternity Touch His hand, believe and receive When we were dead in sin Willingly disobeying Him He said He loved us when the nails went in Jesus died for you Step up closer and be not afraid His eyes are fire, His voice like rushing waters Come behold your salvation, eternal life Lift up your hands, raise your voices, sing to the King He's more than a fairy tale He's more than a faraway star All creation and honor and glory are His Man’s risen Savior When we were dead in sin Spitting and mocking and killing Him He said He loved us when the nails went in Jesus died ... He'll guide you to another land He'll guide you, just take His hand Away from the tears, away from the sorrows Away from the fears, fears of tomorrow

Twelve men on a raging sea Fear gripping in their hearts Afraid that God He would not hear their prayer Fearing that they would die All along laying right beside Was the answer to their call They would never be the same again (x2) One woman against an angry crowd Enduring judgment and shame Afraid that God He would not hear her at all And she'd be condemned to die All along standing right beside Was the answer to her call She would never be the same again (x2) Much of my life I stumbled along Ensnared by my sin Afraid that I had gone way too far Feeling my soul had died All of a sudden deep within I heard an answer to my call I will never be the same again (x2) So surrender your heart To the maker of the stars And the mover of the great four winds And the healer of your soul You will never be the same again (x2)

A lone man is thrown into the darkness His hands and feet shackled to a wall It’s the penalty of voicing his confession And the weight of it begins to fall As he remembers the beauty of his family Left behind with pain now to endure Within his darkened isolation To his Lord he does cry Oh Lord, ease this pain Take any peace that I might have Take it and give it to them, please, Lord A woman rejected and forsaken By the ones she has always known The family she has belonged to Now call her dead, leaving her alone But the truth that she now firmly holds to Brings her life she just can't deny Yet from her lonely isolation To her Lord she does cry Oh Lord, ease this pain Soften through their fearful hearts That my family might be saved, please, Lord These are the prayers of our brothers and sisters Enduring persecution for the call Their cries must not be in silence It must be shattered by our prayers A gathering of secret adoration In the shadows they've come to pray Fearing they have been reported Yet determined they must stay And intercede on behalf of the Body To endure and make it to the end Together in their common isolation To their Lord they do cry Oh Lord, ease this pain Give to us Your holy strength to stand up And confess Your name, please, Lord These are the prayers of our brothers and sisters Enduring persecution for the call Their cries must not be in silence It must be shattered by our prayers

I met a man the other day Sold all he had and headed west Said he'd found some richness there And he's going to make it his Smiling as he parted Saying something about finding a field And now he's gone so long What could be so grand As to make a guy sell all he has and go What could be so grand What could be so grand What could be so grand I’ve gotta know Thoughts began to fill my head Of this treasure that he found What it was and what it meant What effect it would have on me It got me to consider Maybe I could lose A thing or two A thing or two Chorus When I finally tracked him down And I asked him about his field He bid me to come and see What it was that he found Showing me some stone Outside some empty tomb He smiled at me, saying, can't you see This could be so grand This could be so grand This could be so grand You gotta know

Anything 04:59
If I could say anything at all To say all that You mean to me You’ve given so much more Than I ever deserved If I could do anything at all I would beg You to stay And make Your home in my heart Walk with me always From this day I know I’ve failed You Please don’t turn away from me Transform me by Your power Renew me in Your strength Fill me with Your holiness As I kneel before Your throne of grace As I kneel before Your throne of grace If I could say anything at all It would never be enough To say all that You mean to me I’m overwhelmed by Your love You’ve given me so much more Than I ever deserved If I could go anywhere at all I’d run to the ends of the earth Proclaiming all You’ve done for me To everyone I see A miracle of love I know I’ve failed You You won’t turn away from me Chorus

Sweet Lord 03:20
I will raise my voice As I lift my hands I will let Your love Take command of me Sweet Lord Be pleased in me today Receive my humble praise Please set my heart ablaze As Your presence fills my senses so right With Your splendor and Your brilliant light In Your glory I fall to my knees I taste Your goodness, it is so sweet Sweet Lord, rain down on me Holy Spirit, come and set me free Abba Father, give me eyes to see Your presence, Your splendor Your glory, Your goodness Chorus

I know a little boy named Isaac He had to stay home from school one day And he coughed a bit, but he felt okay While he laughed and played He’s got eyes as deep as a cloudless sky A smile as big as the sea is wide He likes to draw me pictures of the things he sees Yeah, he’s making up stories of rainbows and bugs and things And we laughed and played And I wondered what we could do ... on a Wednesday afternoon We went for a ride in a Buick With the sun shining in his eyes He pretended to sleep, and I laughed with the driver My little boy pretending, so quietly Chorus We took a picture in front of a microphone And we took some time to listen to the same old song And I hope that he’ll remember when this day’s long gone How we laughed and played and made fun one day That Wednesday afternoon I know that I’ll remember when this day’s long gone How we laughed and played and made fun one day That Wednesday afternoon

Peace 05:09
Peace, peace I leave Put your hands in my side, believe Peace, oh sweet peace Not what the world gives but me And I can do all things through Him who loves me And I can do all things through Him And I can do all things through Him who strengthens me And I can do all things through Him I give you life in this dying world Just close your eyes and speak to me I'll lift, I’ll carry you To the mountain of Zion Where we’ll dance and sing and celebrate Chorus Don't fear, don't be afraid I'll never leave nor forsake you I am with you to the end of the age Chorus

Our Father 06:55
Welcome, Lord, may the paths be made straight before You Hosanna the people sing in harmony As You ride Your way across the many palm branches Behold, the Lamb of God Breaking four hundred years of silence with Your Son Our Father who art in heaven Hallowed be Thy name Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven Father of lights, shine for all to see The lilies in the fields array The earth was formed by the breath of His spoken word Our destiny is to know Him, lift His name Chorus Mighty God, giver of all good things Formed us in the womb with love We were dead, made a beautiful jewel Sparkling like the Son, Jesus Chorus Do not worry what you eat Do not worry what you wear For your Father knows your needs And He’ll give them all to you

You are powerful You are merciful You’re my redeemer, my friend God almighty Ruler of all things My beginning, my end In Your hands I will rest In Your strength I can begin again I’m nothing I’m frail Without the wonders of Your loving grace I’m broken I’m yearning To hear Your voice again To know You’re near, my friend
