Say Won’t You Say

Artist: Jennifer Knapp

Album: The Way I Am (2001)

Appears on: WOW Hits 2003 album

## Lyrics

(Chorus)

Say won't You say

Say that You love me

With love ever, love, love everlasting

All my devotion put into motion by You

Every morning I have the chance to rise

And give my all

Every afternoon I find

I have only wasted time

In light of Your awe

Isn't love amazing

I forgot how to speak

Knowing You are near and

I am finally free

(Chorus)

My eyes fear to close

This reckless letting go is hard to bear

On the edge of all I need

Still I cling to what I see

And what have I there?

Bred my own disaster

Who have I to blame?

All I need is waiting

To be fanned to flame

(Chorus)

I open up my eyes to see You standing there

Oh, I can barely breathe

I can hardly bear all the love that I feel for You inside

I hope You feel it now

Some, somehow

(Chorus)

## Lyrics

Well, I know this life is filled with sorrow

And there are days when the pain just lasts and lasts

But I know there will come a day

When all our tears are washed away with a break in the clouds

His glory coming down and in that moment

(Chorus)

Every knee shall bow, every tongue confess

That God is love and love has come for us all

Every heart set free, everyone will see

That God is love and love has come for us all

For anybody who has ever lost a loved one

And you feel like you had to let go too soon

I know it hurts to say goodbye

But don't you know it's just a matter of time 'til the tears are gonna end

You'll see him once again and in that moment

(Chorus)

Oh, and on that day we will stand amazed

At our savior, God and king

Just to see the face of amazing grace

As our hearts rise up and sing

(x2)

Glory, glory, hallelujah

Thank You for the cross

Singing glory, glory, hallelujah

Christ has paid the cost

(Chorus)

Love has come for us all

Love has come for us all

## Lyrics

Led beyond the walls I know to poverty

Now I see You gave me what I really need

I never really knew what You were gonna do but I went away

I couldn't really see how it was gonna be but now I'm swept away and

(Chorus)

Through the eyes of a child

In this desolate land

I've seen Your spirit run wild and I've seen the

Healing in Your hand

There is power in Your hand

Howd You know that it was time to draw me close?

Now I see You gave me what I need the most

I've always been the kind to try to bind You in a little box

Apparently You chose to step and break through the lines I've drawn and

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I know You worked in me I know

My faith my faith did surely grow

Why You why You had me go

I know see I was in need

I never really knew what You were gonna do but I went away

I couldn't really see how it was gonna be but now I'm swept away and

## Lyrics

Savior, please take my hand

I work so hard, I live so fast

This life begins, and then it ends

And I do the best that I can, but I don't know how long I'll last

(Chorus)

I try to be so tough

But I'm just not strong enough

I can't do this alone, God I need You to hold on to me

I try to be good enough

But I'm nothing without Your love

Savior, please keep saving me

Savior, please help me stand

I fall so hard, I fade so fast

Will You begin right where I end

And be the God of all I am because You're all I have

(Chorus)

Hallelujah

Everything You are to me

Is everything I'll ever need

And I am learning to believe

That I don't have to prove a thing

'Cause You're the one who's saving me

## Lyrics

City sidewalks, busy sidewalks

Dressed in holiday style

In the air there's a feeling of Christmas

Children laughing, people passing

Meeting smile after smile

And on every street corner you'll hear

(Chorus)

Silver bells, silver bells

It's Christmas time in the city

Ring-a-ling, hear them sing

Soon it will be Christmas day

Strings of streetlights, even stoplights

Blink of bright red and green

As the shoppers rush home with their treasures

Hear the snow crunch, see the kids bunch

This is Santa's big scene

And above all this bustle you'll hear

(Chorus)

(Instrumental break)

(Chorus)

Soon it will be Christmas day

Soon it will be Christmas day

Meditate

Artist: Out of Eden

Album: This Is Your Life (2002)

Appears on: WOW Hits 2003 DVD

## Lyrics

Just sit back and meditate

(I just want to think about it, just think about it)

Just sit back and think how great

(The love you give, oh)

Just sit back and meditate

(I just want to think about it, just think about it)

There is no way, no one compares to you

No way no one compares to you

It's raining I don't really have no place to go

Hear a voice of quiet in my soul

Saying I should go on just stay home

Saying I should talk to you

Tell you everything that's on my mind

Tell you what's going on inside

I don't even know when's the last time that I

(Made time to talk to you)

I've been so busy runnin'bout

Always trying to kick it go hang out

(But there's no one else but you)

Oh it's you I truly I want to see

Cause of all the love you give to me and I

(Chorus)

Just sit back and meditate

On your goodness, your mercy, your grace

Right now I want to just sit back and think how great

Your love that will never change

I know I'm gonna just sit back and meditate

You have given me all that I need and there is no way

No one compares to you

No way no one compares to you to me

My tower in times of refuge, my source of life and peace

Your love it falls like raindrops and never seems to cease

You're the god of all creation; you're the lover of my soul

Given me the air that I breathe

No way I could ever let you go so I

(So I give thanks to you)

More than just for everything you've done

But for how you've shown me you're the one that I

(Can put my trust into)

So no matter who it is that calls

I'm not leaving till your spirit falls one me

(Chorus)

Who could I have in heaven, Lord, but you?

There's no one, there's no one

Lord who could love me like you do (there's no way)

Be who you are or do what you do

Your beauty Lord I long to see (every day)

In your presence I find joy and peace, so to be close to you

(Chorus)

Better is one day in your courts.

Better is one day in your house.

Than a thousand somewhere elses

I could never do without.

Your grace and your mercies,

the air that I breathe;

your promises are residing abundantly.

## Lyrics

Chorus

Sing your praise to the Lord

Come on everybody

Stand up and sing one more hallelujah

Sing your praise to the Lord

I could never tell you just how much

Good that it's gonna do

Just to sing

Anew

The song your heart learned to sing

When He first gave His life to you

Well life goes on and so must the song

You gotta sing again the song born in your soul when

You first gave your heart to Him

Sing His praises once more

Chorus

About the song that someone is dying

To hear down in the madding crowd

That you once were before you heard the song

You gotta let them know the truth

Is a light to shine upon the way that maybe they could go

And sing His praises once more

Chorus

Just to sing

Your praises to the Lord

And everybody sing

Your praises to the Lord

From the rising of the sun

To the place where it sets

The name of the Lord is to be praised

The Lord is exalted over all the nations

His glory above the heavens

Who is like the Lord out God

The One who sits enthroned on high

He who stoops to look down upon

Down upon this earth and its sky

And that is why you gotta sing

(Chorus)

Just to let the name of the Lord

Be praised both for now and ever more

Praise him oh ye servants

Chorus

Praise the name of the Lord

Come on everybody

Stand up and sing one more hallelujah

Sing your praise to the Lord

I could never tell you just how much

Good that it's gonna do

Just to sing

Your praises to the Lord

And everybody sing

Your praises to the Lord

Jesus I am broken now

Before you I fall I lay me down

All I want is you, my all

I cry out from the ashes

Burned with sin and shame

I ask you Lord to make me whole again

(Chorus)

For you say if I will come and will

Pray for you

There's forgiveness when I

Turn from me and pray

For you say if I will come and will

Pray to you

You hear me and heal me when I pray

Your ways are not my own

But I long for them to be

So this what I pray

One with you you'll make me

Melt me away 'til only you remain

(Chorus)

Jesus I am broken now before you

Take me I am yours

## Lyrics

Wake up, baby, look around

Birds sing, ooh that sound

Reminds me of a line

From unchained melody

Feel like I'm a little girl

Best thing in the whole wide world

Is I can see the makings of a memory

I remember how it used to be

Well I'm still dreaming

(Chorus)

'Cause I dream of simple things

I can believe in

Like the feeling this day brings

True love and the miracle of forgiving

I believe in simple things

Ain't nothing like a sunny day

Chit-chat at a street cafe

Just paint the picture, baby

Where you wanna be

Take a walk, take a ride

So far, you and I

Don't need a plan

But we can share

This reverie

I remember how I used to want it all

Funny now the big things seem so small

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Through all the days

The blues, the greys

A ray of light keeps shining

(Instrumental break)

I believe in simple things

(Bridge)

(Chorus)

I dream of simple things

I can believe in

I believe in simple things

Saving Grace

## Lyrics

She had her father's blue eyes

He left home before she arrived

Momma named her Grace

Just getting by on their own

When Grace was 15

She ran from home

One December day

Grace is lost and alone

In a world as cold as stone

God is counting on us

To reach her with his love

(Chorus)

It's all about saving Grace

All about living love

Being Jesus

To those He came to save

Sharing life

And giving our own away

All about serving God

All about saving Grace

She'd never darken the door

Of any church

She would say "What for?

No one there would care for me"

We Have to go where she lives

Simpy show her who Jesus is

Watch him set her free

For grace flows down from above

And faith requires a self-less love

For a world

That's dieing to see

The hope in you and me

(Chorus)

There are countless millions

Just like Grace

Who need a merciful embrace

They won't believe our god is real

Until they feel his touch

(Chorus x2)

Oh, yeah

There is no guilt here

There is no shame

No pointing fingers

There is no blame

What happened yesterday has disappeared

The dirt has washed away and now it's clear

(Chorus)

There's only grace

There's only love

There's only mercy

And believe me it's enough

Your sins are gone

Without a trace

And there's nothing left now

There's only grace

You're starting over now

Under the sun

You're stepping forward now

A new life has begun

Your new life has began

(Chorus)

And if you should fall again

Get back up, get back up

Reach out and take my hand

Get back up, get back up

Get back up again, oh

Get back up again

(Chorus x2)

So get back up, get back up again

Get back up again

And if I told you there's somebody who loves you

Would you say, "Hey, show me that face"?

And if I told you that true freedom was actual

Would you say, "Hey, take me to that place"?

And if I said, "There is a family

A body that moves as one." Oh

Do you feel the love that invites us, liberty excites us?

The disco has just begun, has just begun

Give me love, give me liberty disco

The place everybody in the family's found

On that day we will all be happy people

When love liberty disco's in town

Woohoo

And as we step into the light of the lover

We're all the same, there's no rich or poor

And you know it's never been good for a man to be alone

So come on in, your name's on the door

What are we waiting for?

Fall down, and meet your maker

## Lyrics

Here's to you

You were pink or blue

Everything I wanted

Here's to you

Never sleeping through

From midnight till the morning

Had to crawl

Before you walked before you ran

Before I knew it

You were trying to free your fingers from my hand

'Cause you could do it on your own now

Somehow

(Chorus)

Slow down

Won't you stay here a minute more

I know you want to walk through the door

But it's all too fast

Let's make it last a little while

I pointed to the sky and now you wanna fly

I am your biggest fan

I hope you know I am

But do you think you can somehow

Slow down

Here's to you

Every missing tooth

Every bedtime story

Here's to Barbie cars

Light saber wars

Sleeping in on Sunday

Had to crawl

Before you walked, before you ran

Before I knew it

You were teaching me the only thing love can

Hold hands through it

When it's scary, you've got me

(Chorus)

Please don't roll your eyes at me

I know I'm embarrassing

But someday

You'll understand

You'll hold a little hand

Ask them if they can

Oh-oh-oh-ohhh

'Cause it's all too fast

Oh-oh-oh-ohhh

I am your biggest fan

I hope you know I am

But do you think you can

Somehow

Slow down

Praise is what I do

Because praise is what I do

'Cause I owe it all to you

Praise is what I do

Even when I'm going through

I've learned to worship you

Know my circumstance

Doesn't even stand a chance

My praise outweighs the bad

And I vow to praise you

Through the good and the bad

I'll praise you

Rather happy or sad

I'll praise you

In all that I go through

Because praise is what I do

'Cause I owe it all to you

The higher you build your barriers

The taller I become

The farther you take my rights away

The faster I will run

You can deny me

You can decide to turn your face away

No matter, cos there's....

(Chorus)

Something inside so strong

I know that I can make it

Tho' you're doing me wrong, so wrong

You thought that my pride was gone

Oh no, something inside so strong

Oh oh oh oh oh something inside so strong

The more you refuse to hear my voice

The louder I will sing

You hide behind walls of Jericho

Your lies will come tumbling

Deny my place in time

You squander wealth that's mine

My light will shine so brightly

It will blind you

Cos there's......

(Chorus)

When we know better

## Lyrics

Dull as dirt, you can't assert the kind of light

That might persuade a strict dictator to retire

Fire the army, teach the poor origami

The truth is in, the proof is when

You hear your heart start asking

"What's my motivation"

And try as you may, there isn't a way

To explain the kind of change

That would make a Eskimo renounce for

That would make a vegetarian barbecue hamster

Unless you can trace this

About to face a certain sign

Chorus

Shine

Make 'em wonder what you've got

Make 'em wish that they were not

On the outside looking bored

Shine

Let it shine before all men

Let 'em see good works and then

Let 'em glorify the Lord

Out of the shaker and onto the plate

It isn't Karma, it sure ain't fate

That would make a deadhead sell his van

That would make a schizophrenic turn in his crayons

Oprah freaks and science seeks a rationale

That shall excuse this strange behavior

When you let it shine, you will inspire

The kind of entire turnaround

That would make a bouncer take ballet

Even bouncers who aren't happy

But one of the glare with nowhere to turn

You ain't gonna learn it on, "What's My Line?"

## Lyrics

Sometimes this world starts breaking me down

I get so lost I think I’ll never be found

And there are moments of fear and doubt

Even the best fall to the ground

(Chorus)

I am a mess, I am a wrecking ball

I must confess that I still don’t get it all

Lord I believe that all Your words are true

Doesn’t matter where I’m going if I’m going with You

I press on, I press on, I press on

When I still don’t get it

I see the world through my jaded eyes

I get frustrated when there is no why

I put my focus on worthless things

Even the strong fall to their knees

God only knows what we all need

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Life goes on, life goes on

But Your love will prove

All I need, all I need

I will find in You

Life goes on, life goes on

But Your love will prove

All I need, all I need

I will find in You

I press on

(Chorus)

Life goes on, life goes on

But Your love will prove (But Your love will prove)

All I need, all I need

I will find in You

Life goes on, life goes on (Life goes on, life goes on)

But Your love will prove

All I need, all I need

When I still don’t get it

I press on

## Lyrics

Came in from a rainy Thursday on the avenue

I thought I heard you talking softly

I turned on the lights, the TV and the radio

And still I can't escape the ghost of you

(Pre-Chorus)

What has happened to it all?

Crazy, some would say

Where is the life that I recognize?

Gone away

(Chorus)

But I won't cry for yesterday

There's an ordinary world

Somehow I have to find

And as I try to make my way

To the ordinary world

I will learn to survive

Passion or coincidence once prompted you to say

"Pride will tear us both apart"

Well now pride's gone out the window

'Cross the rooftops, run away

Left me in the vacuum of my heart

(Pre-Chorus 2)

What has happened to me?

Crazy, some would say

Where is my friend when I need you most?

Gone away

(Chorus)

(Instrumental break)

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

Everyone is my world

I will learn to survive

Everyone, everyone

Somehow I have to find

## Lyrics

People get ready

There's a train a comin'

You don't need no baggage you just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesel comin'

Don't need no ticket you just thank the Lord

People get ready

For the train to Jordan

Picking up passengers from coast to coast

Faith is key

Open up the doors and board them

There's hope for all among the love the most

There ain't no room for the hopeless sinner

Who would hurt all mankind just to save his own

Have pity on those whose choices grow thinner

There ain't no hiding place from the Kingdom's throne

People get ready

There's a train a comin'

You don't need no baggage you just get on board

All you need is faith

To hear the diesel comin'

Don't need no ticket you just thank the Lord

I believe, I believe, I do believe

I believe, I believe, I do believe

I believe, I believe, I do believe

I believe, I believe, I do believe

## Lyrics

Though at times it seems like I'm coming undone

This walk can often feel lonely

No matter what until this race is won

I will stand my ground where hope can be found

I will stand my ground where hope can be found

(Chorus)

Oh!

O'Lord, O'Lord I know You hear my cry

Your love is lifting me above all the lies

No matter what I face this I know in time

You'll take all that is wrong and make it right

You'll take all that is wrong and make it right

Your strength is found at the end of my rope

Your grace it reaches to the hurting

Still through the tears and the questioning why

I will stand my ground where hope can be found

I will stand my ground where hope can be found

(Chorus)

(Post-Chorus)

Make it right (right, so right)

Make it right, right (right, so right)

## Lyrics

I've had my share of heartache

I've felt the sting of pain

From standing out in the desert

Praying for rain

I've seen my lonely teardrops

Fall down my lonely face

Oh, how I long to hear the

Thunder roll again

And I want to be

Swept away in Thee

Only You know what I need

(Chorus)

So, open up the sky, rain down Your love

I don't care if I never get enough

I just want to be caught in that flood

So, open up the sky, yeah

Open up the sky

I've had my disappointments

I've cried a time or two

These showers of love I long for

They only come from You

Now I want to go deeper

Fall in over my head

So, send Your Holy downpour

And let the healing begin

And I can't wait

To be swept away

Only You can stop the pain

(Chorus)

Wash me away

(Wash me, wash me)

'Cause I don't think I can wait another day

(Chorus x2)

## Lyrics

You hold the weight of the world

Still I don't slip through your hands

Your love is bigger

Than just an ocean built by man

I fall again and again

But You whisper, "You're still mine"

You feel the pain of the world

But You never push mine aside

And You reach for me

With a love that quiets all my fears

And You reach for me

Like a Father wipes away the tears

So many people in this world

But I hear You calling out my name

You reach for me

Now I'm never gonna be the same

You know all of my fears

There's nothing Your eyes can't see

When I tried to give up

Lord, You never gave up on me

I give You all of my hopes and dreams

I lay them down

Of all the place I've looked

You're the one truth I have found

(Chorus)

You hold the weight of the world

Still I don't slip through Your hands

You put the stars in the sky

You know every grain of sand

Opposition, contradiction tries its best to get in your way

Don't let it tell you what you can't do

You don't have to participate.

Cause what comes through you

This is the day that the Lord has made

This little Light of mine, gonna let it shine

Everywhere I go, I'm gonna let it show.

This little Light of mine, gonna let it shine!

Forgetting the power in what you say.

For every action, there's a reaction

Why don't you choose a better way?

You can either do wrong or you can do what's right

Every seed you sow, you'll reap

This is the right time to shine your light.

## Lyrics

Alone in a room, it's just me and you

I feel so lost, cause I don't know what to do

Now what if I choose the wrong thing to do

I'm so afraid, afraid of disappointing you

(Chorus)

So I need to talk to you

And ask you for your guidance

Especially today

When my mind is so cloudy

Guide me until I'm sure

I open up my heart

My hopes and dreams are fading fast

I'm all burned out

And I don't think my strength's gonna last

So I'm crying out, crying out to you

Lord, I know that you're the only one

Who is able to pull me through

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

So show me how to do things your way

Don't let me make the same mistakes

Over and over again

Your will be done and I'll be the one

To make sure that it's carried out

And In me, I don't want any doubt, that's why

(Chorus)

I wanna talk to you (yes I do)

And ask you for your guidance

Especially today

When my world seems just a little bit cloudy

Lord, you, you can guide me through

That's why I open up

I open up my heart, my heart, my heart, my heart

Oh, all I need to do is just

Hear a single word from you

I open up, I open up

Open up my heart to you, to you

You're the lover of my soul

The captain of my sea

I need a word from you

That's why I open up my heart

## Lyrics

Life's a masquerade filled with so many faces

Faces that aren't so real

Hearts that really cannot feel

The problems that I face each and every single day

Tell me that I'm not where I'm supposed to be

I remember how tight we used to be

And I want you to draw me closer to thee

Lord, I've tried to live an honest life

So why do I try to fool God's people all the time?

(Chorus)

I just wanna be real with you

I just wanna live a life that true

I just wanna be real with you

I just wanna be real with you

I just wanna live a life that true

I just wanna be real with you

I know just what it takes

And Lord, I don't want to be fake

Cuz there's another side of me

Lord I've got to get it straight

And it is my desire to be more like you each day

But the enemy keeps trying to lead me further astray

When I come into your presence let me feel You

And when I leave the sanctuary I want to live true

Lord, I've tried to live an honest life

So why do I try to fool God's people all the time?

(Chorus)

I wanna be real when I sing

I wanna be real when I preach

I wanna be real when I minister

I wanna be real with you Jesus

I wanna be real in season

I wanna be real with with you Jesus

I wanna be real not just on Sunday

God I wanna be real on Monday too

I wanna be real

I gotta be real

I've gotta be real with you Jesus

When I sing

When I preach

When I minister

Wanna be real with you

Gotta be real

Gotta be real

Gotta be real

With you Jesus

Every day of my life

I wanna walk in the light

Walk in the beautiful light

Where God's glory shines bright

I wanna be real

I've gotta be real

I've gotta be real

With you Jesus

Lord, I just wanna be real

Pray that I cant be real

With my family discipline and consistency

I wanna be real

I've gotta be real

I've gotta be real

With you Lord

No more ducking and dodging

No more creeping and hiding

No more running from shadows

I'mma fight all of my battles head on

I'mma fight all of my battles head on

From this day forward

I vow to myself to keep it real

You can love it or hate it

You can love it or hate it yeah

But I'm gonna keep it real

This is not the scene for me

I wanna live authentically

Does anyone out there agree with me?

I wanna be real

I've got to be real

I've gotta be real

Real with you Jesus

Every day of my life

I wanna live my life

Pleasing before you

Pleasing before you

Let the words of my mouth

And the meditation of my heart

Be acceptable in thy sight

Oh Lord my strength

Oh Lord my redeemer

Oh Lord my strength

Hope is here, just lift your head

For love has come to find you

Somewhere in your silent night

There is no distance the Prince of Peace won't go

From manger low to Calvary's hill

When your pain runs deep, His love runs deeper still

He has always loved you, child

And He always will
