Lyrics:
I Will Be Ready Then From the album Beautiful DawnTime…races on The world spins so fast All I see is past When…will it end Is there more to climb Am I out of time Help my lamp light Keep burning bright and pure I will remain true to the faith That when He comes again I will be ready then
Chorus: I will be ready then When He comes again I will be ready then When He comes again I’ll be ready then Take…one day at a time Keep my heart set close To what matters most
Give…every chance that I get Set the world aside Leave it all behind Help my lamp light Keep burning bright and pure I will remain true to the faith That when He comes again I will be ready then
Chorus
Bright is the new day, The sun is rising. Help me to find someone in need, Who’s crying for help, please send me…
Chorus
Beautiful Dawn From the album Beautiful Dawn
Take me to the breaking of a beautiful dawn Take me to the place where we come from Take me to the end so I can see the start There’s only one way to mend a broken heart
Take me to the place where I don’t feel so small Take me where I don’t need to stand so tall Take me to the edge so I can fall apart There’s only one way to mend a broken heart
Take me where love isn’t up for sale Take me where our hearts are not so frail Take me where the fire still owns its spark There’s only one way to mend a broken heart
Teach me how to see when I close my eyes Teach me to forgive and to apologize Show me how to love in the darkest dark There’s only one way to mend a broken heart
Take me where the angels are close at hand Take me where the ocean meets the sky and the land Show me to the wisdom of the evening star There’s only one way to mend a broken heart
Take me to the place where I feel no shame Take me where the courage doesn’t need a name Learning how to cry is the hardest part There’s only one way to mend a broken heart Hello Sunshine From the album Beautiful Dawn
Hello sunshine it’s been too long since I felt your warmth upon my face And how much have I missed ‘Cause I’ve been focused on everything wrong This road just felt so long I forgot to lift my head to see you
Chorus Oh my lovely shining for me Let my eyes see all the beauty Oh-oh
Hello sunshine since the moment That I felt your beautiful warmth I knew that I’d do anything To keep this feeling of you My heart comes alive Oh who could add a day to this life By drowning every dark sky
Chorus
Fill my dark skies Make me see the light Life is fine so bring in the sunshine Oh-oh
Whoa-oh let in the sunshine Whoa-oh let in the sunshine Whoa-oh let in the sunshine Let in the sunshine We All Need Saving From the album Beautiful Dawn
Come on, come on You have got to move on This is not the you I know This isn’t real It’s just all you can feel And that’s the way that feelings go And whether or not it’s right or wrong you’ll do what you will do
Chorus: When the cloud in the sky starts to pour And your life is just a storm you’re braving Don’t tell yourself you can’t lean on someone else Cause we all need saving sometimes
Say what you will but the time that we fill While we’re on the earth Should not be alone We were meant to be known You make me what I’m worth But I can’t keep you from yourself you’ll do what you will do
Chorus
I don’t know why it has to be this way and I don’t know the cure But please believe someone else has felt this before
Chorus Come Thou Fount From the album Beautiful Dawn
Come, Thou Fount of ev’ry blessing Tune my heart to sing Thy grace Streams of mercy, never ceasing Call for songs of loudest praise Teach me some melodious sonnet Sung by flaming tongues above Praise the mount! I’m fixed upon it Mount of Thy redeeming love
Here I raise my Ebenezer Hither by Thy help I’m Come And I Hope by Thy good pleasure Safely to arrive at home Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it Prone to leave the God I Love Here’s my heart, O take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above
Jesus sought me when a stranger Wand’ring from the fold of God He, to rescue me from danger Interposed His precious blood Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it Prone to leave the God I Love Here’s my heart, O take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above
O to grace how great a debtor Daily I’m constrained to be! Let Thy goodness, as a fetter Bind my wand’ring heart to Thee Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it Prone to leave the God I Love Here’s my heart, O take and seal it Seal it for Thy courts above I Belong From the album Beautiful Dawn
Not angels, nor demons, no power on earth or heaven Not distance, nor danger, no trouble now or ever Nothing can take me from your great love Forever this truth remains
Chorus I belong, I belong to you I belong, I belong to you
Not hardship, nor hunger, no pain or depth of sorrow Not weakness, nor failure, no broken dream or promise Nothing can take me from your great love Forever this truth remains
Chorus
Forever and forever, I belong Nothing can take me from your great love Forever this truth remains
Chorus Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer to thee E’en though it be a cross That raiseth me Still all my song shall be Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer to thee
Though like the wanderer The sun gone down Darkness be over me My rest a stone Yet in my dreams I’d be Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer to thee
There let the way appear Steps unto heaven All that thou sendest me In mercy giv’n Angels to beckon me Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer, my God, to thee Nearer to thee All I Need From the album Beautiful Dawn
When the day is done And there’s no one else around While I’m lying here in bed You’re in my heart, You’re in my head You’re all I need, You’re all I need
There are a million voices Calling out my name But You’re the One I want to hear So make the others disappear You’re all I need, You’re all I need
Chorus You are all I need when I’m surrounded You are all I need if I’m by myself You fill me when I’m empty There is nothing else You’re all I need
When the morning comes And Your mercy is renewed There’s a fire in my bones I’m not afraid to go alone You’re all I need, You’re all I need
The sun on my face I hear You whisper loud You’re still the God that opens seas Every flower, even me You’re all I need, You’re all I need
Chorus
I’m drawn to everything that You do Nothing compares with You
Chorus My Heavenly Father Loves Me From the album Beautiful Dawn
Whenever I hear the song of a bird Or look at the blue, blue sky Whenever I feel the rain on my face Or the wind as it rushes by
Whenever I touch a velvet rose Or walk by a lilac tree I’m glad that I live in this beautiful world Heavenly Father created for me
He gave me my eyes that I might see The color of butterfly wings He gave me my ears that I might hear The magical sound of things
He gave me my life, my mind, my heart I thank him reverently For all his creations of which I’m apart Yes, I know Heavenly Father loves me
He gave my life, my mind, my heart I thank him reverently For all his creations of which I’m apart Yes, I know Heavenly Father loves me Echoes From the album Beautiful Dawn
Long ago and faraway You were held in another place And you were whispered sweet words of peace And you were wrapped in the Arms of Mercy Soon you won’t remember those days Soon you won’t recall His voice or His face But baby, sometimes if you’re still…
Chorus: You will hear echoes Heavenly echoes Reminding you of another time and place Like waking from an old familiar dream You will hear echoes
You may have feelings hard to understand Like you’re a stranger in a foreign land When your homesick spirit feels alone Remember, remember this was not your first home
Chorus
There may be times it seems Heaven never happened But baby, there will be angels Waiting to send you
Chorus
For All You’ve Done From the album Beautiful Dawn
Oh cleanser of the mess I’ve made Upon the hill our places trade Stretched on a cross Your body crushed By human hands You formed from dust
Chorus How wonderful Your mercy is How awesome are Your ways I come, I come To worship You For all You’ve done
Oh cleanser of the mess I’ve made Your boundless love for me portrayed With patience for my learning curve By holding back what I deserve
Chorus
Oh cleanser of the mess I’ve made With everything at Your feet laid I watch as all my cares erode And from my soul these words explode
Chorus
