I have journeyed through the long dark night Out on the open sea By faith alone, sight unknown And yet His eyes are watching me The anchor holds, though the ship is battered The anchor holds, though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm. I've had visions and I've had dreams I've even held them in my hands But I never knew they would slip right through Like they were only grains of sand The anchor holds, though the ship is battered The anchor holds, though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm. I have been young, but I am older now There has been beauty these eyes have seen But it was in the night, through the storms of my life Oh that's when God proved his love to me The anchor holds, though the ship's been battered The anchor holds, though the sails are torn I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds, in spite of the storm. I have fallen on my knees as I face the raging seas But the anchor holds (the anchor holds) In spite of the storm.

You promised me the world Filled my mind with hope and empty dreams You promised to protect me But I now realize. I'm better off without you I'm better off without you You took advantage of my innocence and optimism A child looking through rose Wanting nothing more than harmony in a Broken world I looked up to you. Your confidence hid your intents so well An empty reflection that gave me a false sense of comfort I don't have the words to say But I hope that one day You will see what you did to me And all the pain you've made You fooled me into thinking I was your reason why I craved your presence. Hung onto every word and lie That skipped across your lips Your shallow decadence Skewing the reality of my consciousness You made me believe I couldn't do this without you That you were the missing piece to my life You made me think you could fix all The damage done and love me all the same Covered my eyes from the truth to hide who was really left to blame I don't have the words to say But I hope that one day You will see what you did to me And the pain you made I just wanted you to know that I put my faith in you I wanted to believe, but you threw it all away I see what I am to you A pawn in a game only you knew Living to be the hero in the light Striving as the menace while I sleep at night Digging your fangs deeper in my heart Convincing me, while you play the part You're the remedy to wounds left by you Grinning at all that you've put me through I'm better off without you I don't have the words to say But I hope that one day You will see what you did to me And the pain you made I just wanted you to know that I put my faith in you I wanted to believe, but you threw it all away

I live by the ocean And during the night I dive into it Down to the bottom Underneath is all currents And drop my anchor And this is where I'm staying This is my home I live by the ocean And during the night I dive into it Down to the bottom Underneath is all currents And drop my anchor And this is where I'm staying This is my home

I dreamed I went to heaven And you were there with me We walked upon the streets of gold Beside the crystal sea We heard the angels singing Then someone called your name You turned and saw this young man And he was smiling as he came And he said friend you may not know me now And then he said but wait You used to teach my Sunday School When I was only eight And every week you would say a prayer Before the class would start And one day when you said that prayer I asked Jesus in my heart Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave Then another man stood before you And said remember the time A missionary came to your church And his pictures made you cry You didn't have much money But you gave it anyway Jesus took the gift you gave And that's why I'm here today Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave One by one they came Far as the eyes could see Each life somehow touched By your generosity Little things that you had done Sacrifices made Unnoticed on the earth In heaven now proclaimed And I know that up in heaven You're not supposed to cry But I am almost sure There were tears in your eyes As Jesus took your hand And you stood before the Lord He said, my child look around you For great is your reward Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave Thank you for giving to the Lord I am a life that was changed Thank you for giving to the Lord I am so glad you gave I am so glad you gave...

They tell me Jesus died for my transgressions That He paid that price a long, long time ago When He gave His life for me on a hill called Calvary But there's something else I want to know Does He still feel the nails Every time I fail? Can He hear the crowd cry, "Crucify" again? Am I causing Him pain? Then I know I've got to change I just can't bear the thought of hurting Him It seems that I'm so good at breaking promises And I treat His precious grace so carelessly But each time He forgives what if He re-lives The agony He felt on that tree? Does He still feel the nails Every time I fail? Does He hear the crowd cry, "Crucify" again? Am I causing Him pain? Then I know I've got to change 'Cause I just can't bear the thought of hurting Him Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord Do You still feel the nails Every time I fail? Have I crucified You Jesus with my sins? Oh, I'm tired of playing games I really want to change I never want to hurt You again Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord Holy, holy Holy, is the Lord

Walking On the Road To Jerusalem, The time had come to sacrifice, Again. My two small sons, They walked beside me down the road, The reason that they came, Was to watch the lamb. "Daddy daddy, What will we see there? There's so much that we don't understand," So I told them of Moses, And Father Abraham, And then I said dear children, "Watch the lamb. There will be so many, In Jerusalem today, We must be sure the lamb Doesn't run away," And I told them of Moses, And Father Abraham, And I said "Dear children, Watch the lamb." When we reached the city, I knew something must be wrong, There were no joyful worshippers No joyful worship songs. I stood there, With my children, In the midst of angry men, Then I heard the crowd cry out, "Crucify Him!" We tried to leave the city, But we could not get away. Forced to play in this drama, A part I did not wish to play, Why upon this day were men condemned to die? Why were we all standing here, When soon they would pass by? I looked and said, "Even now they come," The first one pleaded for mercy, The people gave him none. The second one was violent, He was arrogant and loud, I can still hear his angry voice, Screaming at the crowd. Then someone said, "There's Jesus," I scarce believed my eyes, A man so badly beaten, He barely looked alive. Blood poured from His body, From the thorns on His brow, Running down the cross, And falling to the ground. I watched as He struggled, I watched Him as He fell, The cross came down upon His back, And the crowd began to yell. In that moment I felt such agony, In that moment I felt such loss, Till the roman soldier grabbed my arm and screamed, "YOU! Carry his cross!" At first I tried to resist him, But his hand reached for his sword, So I knelt and I took The cross from the Lord. I put it on my shoulders And started down the street The blood that He'd been shedding, Was running down my cheek. They led us to Golgatha They drove nails, Deep in His feet and hands. And on the cross, I heard him pray, "Father, forgive them..." Never have I seen such love In any other eyes "Into thy hands I commit my spirit," He prayed, And then He died. I stood for what seemed like years, I lost all sense of time, Until I felt two tiny hands Holding tight to mine. My children stood there weeping, And I heard the oldest say "Father please forgive us, The lamb, Ran away. Daddy daddy, What've we seen here, There's so much that we don't understand," So I took them in my arms, We turned and faced the cross. And I said, "Dear children Watch the lamb."

Sometimes I wake up in the morning To red, blue, and yellow skies It's so crazy I could drink it like tequila sunrise Put on that Hotel California Dance around like I'm insane I feel free when I see no one And nobody knows my name God knows I live God knows I died God knows I begged Begged, borrowed and cried God knows I loved God know I lied God knows I lost God gave me life And God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried Sometimes I wake up in the morning To red, blue and yellow lights On Monday they destroyed me But by Friday I'm revived Put on that hotel California Wear my blinders in the rain I've got nothing much to live for Ever since I found my fame God knows I live God knows I died God knows I loved God knows I lied God knows I begged Begged, borrowed and cried God knows I lost God gave me life God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried So let there be light Let there be light Light up my life Light up my life Let there be light Let there be light Light up my life Light up my life God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried God knows I tried

I pledge allegiance to the lamb With all my strength With all I am I will seek to honor His commands I pledge allegiance to the Lamb I have heard how christians long ago Were brought before a tyrants throne And they were told that he would spare their lives If they would renounce the name of Christ But one by one they chose to die The Son of God they would not deny Like a great angelic choir sings I can almost hear their voices ring I pledge allegiance to the Lamb With all my strengh With all I am I will seek to honor His commands I pledge allegiance to the Lamb Now the years have come and the years have gone But the cause of Jesus still goes on And now our time has come to count the cost To reject this world, to embrace the cross And one by one let us live our lives For the One who died to give us life Till the trumpet sounds on the final day Let us proudly stand and boldly say I pledge allegiance to the Lamb With all my strength With all I am I will seek to honor His commands I pledge allegiance to the Lamb To the Lamb of God who bore my pain Who took my place, Who wore my shame I will seek to honor His commands I pledge allegiance to the Lamb I pledge allegiance to the Lamb With all my strength With all I am I will seek to honor His commands I pledge allegiance to the Lamb I pledge allegiance to the Lamb (With all my strength) With all my strength With all I am (With all I am) I will seek to honor His commands (I pledge allegiance) I pledge allegiance to the Lamb I pledge allegiance to the Lamb (To the Lamb) With all my strength With all I am I will seek to honor His commands I pledge allegiance to the Lamb
