Love's Been Following You

Artist: Twila Paris

Album: Where I Stand (1996)

Appears on: WOW 1997

## Lyrics

I know sometimes It's hard to believe it

But Love's been following you

From where I stand I'm able to see it

And love's been following you

All through the stormy night

Didn't you see the light

Goodness and mercy

Right there behind you

Love's been following you

Some days your heart just couldn't be colder

But love's been following you

All you have learned just makes you feel older

But love's been following you

You think that no one cares

Still love is always there

He would go anywhere

Just to find you

Love's been following you

Love has been following you

Love's been following you

Love has been following you

Following you, following you

Somehow the road just seems to get longer

But love's been following you

Wait for the One who will make you stronger

'Cause love's been following you

Wherever you go from here

Run far away from fear

Keep one thing very near

And believe it's true

Love's been following you

Love's been following you (x2)

Love's been following you (x5)
Lift Your Head Weary Sinner (Chains)

Artist: Crowder

Album: Neon Steeple (2014)

Appears on: WOW Hits 2017

## Lyrics

Lift your head weary sinner, the river's just ahead

Down the path of forgiveness, salvation's waiting there

You built a mighty fortress 10,000 burdens high

Love is here to lift you up, here to lift you high

(Chorus)

If you're lost and wandering

Come stumbling in like a prodigal child

See the walls start crumbling

Let the gates of glory open wide

All who've strayed and walked away, unspeakable things you've done

Fix your eyes on the mountain, let the past be dead and gone

Come all saints and sinners, you can't outrun God

Whatever you've done can't overcome the power of the blood

(Chorus 2)

If you're lost and wandering

Come stumbling in like a prodigal child

See the walls start crumbling

Let the gates of glory open wide

If you're lost and wrecked again

Come stumbling in like a prodigal child

See the walls start crumbling

Let the gates of glory open wide

Oh oh

Let the chains fall

Let the chains fall

Let the chains fall

Let the chains fall

Let the chains fall

Let the chains fall

Let the chains fall

Let the chains

Chains, chains

(Chorus 2)

Let the gates of glory open wide

Let the gates of glory open wide

## Lyrics

Oh, the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since we’ve no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn’t show signs of stopping

And I’ve brought some corn for popping

The lights are turned way down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

When we finally kiss good night

How I’ll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home I’ll be warm

The fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we’re still goodbying

As long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

She doesn't care if it's in below

She's sitting by the fires glossy glow

She don't care about the cold and the winds that blow

She just says, let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Ooh, wee, goes the storm

Why should she worry when she's nice and warm?

Her guy by her side and the lights down low

She just says, let it snow, let it snow

Oh, the weather outside is frightful

But the fire is so delightful

And since we’ve no place to go

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

It doesn’t show signs of stopping

And I’ve brought some corn for popping

The lights are turned way down low

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Let it snow

When we finally kiss good night

How I’ll hate going out in the storm

But if you really hold me tight

All the way home I’ll be warm

I'll be warm

Oh, the fire is slowly dying

And, my dear, we’re still goodbying

As long as you love me so

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow

Would you stay with me and let it snow
Never Gone

Artist: Colton Dixon

Album: A Messenger (2014)

Appears on: WOW Hits Party Mix (Capital Kings remix)

## Lyrics

Lights off

A shot in the dark, we get lost

When we’re playing a part, we lay blame

Like we know what’s best, it’s a shame

We break

When we fall too hard, lose faith

When we’re torn apart, don’t say

You’re too far gone, it’s a shame

It’s a shame

(Chorus)

I’m still standing here

No, I didn’t disappear

Now the lights are on

See, I was never gone

I let go of your hand

To help you understand

With you all along

Oh, I was never gone

There’s space

Between our lives, hard to face

But I know we try to revive

Bring it back to life

Don’t walk away

Don’t walk away

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

I never ever left you, never ever left you, no

He said, "I never ever left you, never ever left you, no"

Jesus never ever left you, never ever left you, no

He sees us, even in the darkness, now you know you’re not alone

(Chorus x2)

## Lyrics

Lord, You are more precious than silver

Lord, You are more costly than gold

Lord, You are more beautiful than diamonds

And nothing I desire compares to You

Lord, Your Love is higher than mountains

Lord, Your Love is deeper than seas. Lord

Your Love encompasses the nations

And yet, You live right here inside of me!

Who can weigh the value of knowing You?

Who can judge the worth of who You are?

Who can count the blessings of loving You?

Who can say just how great You are?

I Wonder

Artist: Leeland

Album: The Great Awakening (2011)

Appears on: WOW Hits 2012 album

## Lyrics

At the stars in the night, I wonder

At Your lightning in the sky, I shudder

Your glory is a blanket that covers

Every living thing

I'm in awe at the majesty of who You are

Your love is a seal burnt inside my heart

All of the day I want to be where You are

Holy Father

And it feels like there's not enough praise inside of me

With all these words, all my heart can sing is holy

You are holy

Jesus Christ

You bled Your love, laid down Yourself

And gave me life

In naked shame You hung and You were lifted high

Here I lay in awe and wonder

I am afraid

For no one's ever sacrificed and loved me this way

So on my face I fall under Your heavy grace

Here I lay in awe and wonder

And I wonder

I'm in awe at the majesty of who You are

Your love is a seal burnt inside my heart

All of the day I want to be where You are

Holy Father

And it feels like there's not enough praise inside of me

With all these words, all my heart can sing is holy

You are holy

Album: Let Them Fall to Love (2017)

Appears on: WOW Gospel 2018

## Lyrics

Waking up

Another heavy heart, and burdens I can't bear

Does any body care?

Seeing more

Of what I'm missing less, or what I have to share

Miles away

From what I need and yet, so close when I'm in prayer

(Chorus)

That's when I close my eyes

Take sometime and realize

That He was always there

The truth is He never left

That is what the Spirit says

And I believe it so

I never have to be alone

Waking up

Another cross today, the weight's a lot this time

So much is on my mind

Lonely heart

Don't desert the One, you know will love you best

Open up, so He can breath again

And put the storm to rest

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

Lonely heart

Don't desert the One

You know will love you best

Open up, so he can breath again

And put the storm to rest

(Chorus)

Never have to be alone

Artist: Petra

Album: No Doubt (1995)

Appears on: WOW 1996

## Lyrics

There are times when you feel like you can't go on

There are times when you feel like giving in

And there are time when you feel like you can't try anymore

There are times of trouble in believing

The test of your faith will last

As long as it takes to pass

Til you have no more doubt to endure

And your faith will emerge true and pure

(Chorus)

No doubt it'll be alright

With God it'll all work together for good

No doubt in the end it will be understood

No doubt it'll all work out

With faith He can move any mountain for us

No doubt in the power of Jesus

And after all is done we find out

All we really need to have is no doubt

There's a time to take a reckless leap of faith

There's a time to be cautious and wait

And there's a way of learning from the past

That this time of trouble won't last

And sometimes we want to think we know

The ways He will choose to make us grow

But it's never the way of our choosing

And we can't always see what He's doing

(Chorus)

There will be winters in the season of our soul

With a cold and bitter wind that chills our lives

But our faith can be building a fire

That will warm us till spring time comes

(Chorus)

Album: Speak (2006)

Appears on: WOW Next 2007

## Lyrics

How could You see what You see and not totally

Want to discontinue me for all eternity and then some

It bothers me so that I could be so

Completely unaffected when connected to the holy One

And so I sit here and stare at this page and wonder

At what age it will become clear to me

So for now I am clueless to how You do this

And how You move this Spirit in me

(Chorus)

I'm going Your way

Even though I cannot see in front of me

I'm going Your way

Even though I feel lost at sea, yeah

How could Your favor be the flavor I savor

When the fruits of my labor are so unfavorable

And old pages are setting the stages for something outrageous

A Man who can save all our souls

And You know and You know, You know

And You know, You know

(Chorus)

Ride the wave, wave goodbye

By the way did I mention today that I don't know the way home

So could You take me by the hand and lead me to the dryer land

So I can finally breathe again instead of sinking like a stone

And now I will diligently and not religiously, but affectionately come

Before the throne of Your grace in this place and seek Your face

For all eternity and then some

(Chrous)

(Chorus)

## Lyrics

We're passengers aboard a train

Silent little lambs amidst the pain

That's no longer good enough

And when it's time to speak our faith

We use a language no one can explain

That's no longer good enough

And God knows it's a shame

'Cause if we look to pass the blame

We are not the worthy bearers of His name

Chorus

For the world to know the truth

There can be no greater proof

Then to live the life, live the life

There's no love as quite as pure

There's no pain we can't endure

If we live the life, live the life

Be a light for all to see

For every act of love will set you free

There's something beautiful and bold

The power of a million human souls

Come together as one

And each, in turn, goes out to lead

Another by His word, His love, His deed

Now the circle is done

It all comes back to one

For it is He and He alone

Who has lived the only perfect life we've known

Chorus

It will set you free

Don't let our love grow cold

I'm calling out light the fire again

Don't let our vision die

I'm calling out light the fire again

You know my heart my deeds

I'm calling out light the fire again

I need Your discipline

I'm calling out light the fire again

I am here to buy gold refined in the fire

Naked and poor

Wretched and blind I come

Clothe me in white

So I won't be ashamed

Lord light the fire again
More Than You Know

Artist: Out of Eden

Album: More Than You Know

Appears on: WOW 1998

## Lyrics

I know you walk around this life without hope

Just tryin' to figure out a way you can cope, well

You do so many things to escape your fears

That you will never make it

You'll always have to fake being happy

I know the truth you can believe it or not

There's a way out of this way of living

But your trust must be giving willingly

Someone to rescue you from all your disgrace

Who will show you all His mercy, love and grace

Chorus

More than you know

More than you could ever dream

There's so much more

Waiting for you that it seems if you'll only believe

I know you wonder what your life's all about

When it comes to your future, you have your doubts

There's only one who can make you feel secure

Who will lead you through this life

Where you'll spend eternity you can be sure

You think the only heaven you'll ever know

is the little bit of blue sky you see when your troubles

Seem to go for a little while

There's a lasting pleasure, a fuller measure of joy and peace

When you look inside and know you've been set free

Chorus

You think the only heaven you'll ever know

is the little bit of blue sky you see when your troubles

Seem to go for a little while

There's a lasting pleasure, a fuller measure of joy and peace

When you look inside and know you've been set free, free

Chorus (x2)

If you just let it go

If you just let it go

It's waiting just for you

If you open up your eyes

If you realize, it's waitin' for you

## Lyrics

Don't know where to begin, it's like my world's caving in

And I try but I can't control my fear, where do I go from here?

Sometimes it's so hard to pray, when You feel so far away

But I am willing to go where You want me to

And God I trust You

(Chorus)

There's a raging sea right in front of me

Wants to pull me in, bring me to my knees

So let the waters rise if You want them to

I will follow You, I will follow You!

I will follow You!

I will swim in the deep, 'cause You'll be next to me

You're in the eye of the storm and the calm of the sea

You're never out of reach

God, You know where I've been and You were there with me then

You were faithful before, You'll be faithful again

I'm holding Your hand

(Chorus)

(Bridge)

God Your love is enough

You will pull me through

I'm holding onto You

God Your love is enough

I will follow You

I will follow You!

## Lyrics

Chasing a dream

So many things

Capture my affection

Running ahead I've been a mess

Loosing my perspective

This is my obsession

Always chasing the wind

Left with nothing in the end

(Chorus 1)

It's meaningless without You

Meaningless these treasures I possess

Only You, You satisfy

Only You sustain my life

Without You

It's meaningless

Feeling You near

It's coming clear

You've got my attention

Filling the void

Killing the noise

Focus my direction

With intimate insistence

You overwhelm my senses

All I need is before me now

(Chorus 2)

It's meaningless without You

Meaningless these treasures I possess

'Cause only You, You satisfy

Only You sustain my life

Without You

(Bridge)

I'm breathing but I can't survive

I'm living but I'm not alive

Without You

Without You

(Chorus 2)

(Chorus 1)

Without You

It's meaningless

Without You

It's meaningless
Not Lucky, I’m Loved

Album: Make Room (2018)

Appears on: WOW Gospel 2019

## Lyrics

Maybe I succeeded a little

I jumped up from the floor to the middle

You think I want the credit, I don't

'Cause the glory ain't made for me

But I know who sits on the throne

Who makes the stage and writes the songs

And I know I couldn't do this on my own

And as much as I complain, I've seen more sunshine than rain

(Pre-Chorus)

And I could thank my lucky stars

But that's not where my blessings are

No, they come from the Father's heart

Not the sky, not chance

The truth is

(Chorus)

I'm not lucky, I'm loved

I'm not lucky, I'm loved

I'm not lucky, I'm loved

I'm not lucky, I'm loved

Today I'm in a happy place

And I know it didn't happen by mistake

I love how He wrote my life

And I love how He sees my heart

So I fall to my knees and I say that I'm grateful when every morning starts

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus)

From the very beginning, this life that I'm living

Was part of Your plan all along

(Pre-Chorus)

(Chorus x2)

Sing, "Yes, Jesus loves me"

Yes, Jesus loves me"

Sing, "Yes, Jesus loves me"

Sing, "Yes, Jesus loves me"

(Interlude)

(Bridge 2)

I thank You for always loving me

I thank You for always loving me

I thank You for always loving me

Yeah, I thank You for always loving, loving me

The way that You love me

See, I don't thank my lucky stars

'Cause that's not where my blessings are

No, they come from the Father's heart

Not the sky, not chance

The truth is, I'm not lucky, I'm loved

In my kitchen there's a lady on TV

Beneath the burning sun so far away

And her baby's eyes are staring straight at me

With all the innocence that seem to say

(Pre-Chorus)

Check, what you gon' do to help me

Check, like the water jar my belly's empty

Check, what can you do to make it better

Check, gotta do something so I can tell him

(Chorus)

Gotta message for my sista girls

Gotta message for my baby girls

Gotta send it, send it 'round the world

'Cause I got a message for ya

Gotta message for my brother man

That we gotta give it, give it all we can

Justa' spread the love of God around the land

'Cause gotta message for ya

There's little brother livin' down the street

Struggling to do the best he can

His mama gives him clothes and food to eat

But can't show him how to be a man

(Pre-Chorus)

Check, whatcha' gonna do to reach 'em

Check, lookin' for someone to teach him

Check, an everyday kind of hero

Check, another way that we can let him know

## Lyrics

People talk about the way I dance, dance, dance

They think it's funny when I lift my hands, hands, hands

All the things I've been going through

I'm telling you if you only knew

This joy is real something you can feel

All my heartbreaks and my heartaches

Though I couldn't take, You were there

Holding me and molding me reminding me that You care

You're on time, never coming at the wrong time

Always there that's a long time

I'm not ashamed can't help

But wanna praise Your name

(Chorus)

No matter what the people may say

You can praise Him anyway

You may have to cry sometimes

But I promise you'll be alright

My brotha if you just hold on

All this pain it'll soon be gone

Can't nobody, nobody

Nobody do me like You do me, nobody, nobody

Tia doro Jese

(I worship You Jesus)

Can't nobody love me like You

(Like You)

Give me joy like the way You do

(You do)

When I'm alone and my faith's gone

I heard be strong, I knew it was You

A spiritual love affair

Knows how much I can bear

Can't nobody, nobody, nobody

Nobody, nobody, nobody, nobody

(Chorus x2)

Pienso en ti

When I think of You Father

Y mi corazon se llena de elegria

My heart is filled with joy

No se pueden medir tus bendiciones

You have blessed me beyond measure

Nobody no, nobody no, nobody no, no

Nobody no, nobody no, nobody no, no

Nobody no, nobody no, nobody no, no

Rap, what the deal now

Holy spirit you can feel now

Cats want to keep it real now

But love is spiritual

I'm giving you knowledge

Because it's critical and lyrical

You know I'm on your heels now

I won't stop I can't stop

'Cuz you know His grace and mercy

It'll never drop who flop? Not me

To Metropolis ain't no stoppin' this

Ain't no poppin' this

And all my ghetto children who be rockin' this

I'm runnin' back to Your promises one more time

Lord, that's all I can hold onto

I've got to say this has taken me by surprise

But nothing surprises You

Before a heartache can ever touch my life

It has to go through Your hands

And even though I keep askin' why

I keep askin' why

(Chorus)

No matter what, I'm gonna love You

No matter what, I'm gonna need You

I know that You can find a way to keep me from the pain

But if not, if not, I'll trust You

(Post-Chorus)

No matter what

No matter what

When I'm stuck and there's nothing else by myself

I'm just sitting in silence

There's no way I can make it without Your help

I wont even try it

I know You have Your reasons for everything

So I will keep believing

Whatever I might be feeling, God, You are my hope

And You will be my strength

(Chorus)

(Post-Chorus)

Anything I don't have, You can give it to me

But it's okay if You don't

I'm not here for those things, the touch of Your love

Is enough on its own

But no matter what, I still love You

And I'm gonna need You

(Chorus)

I know that You can find a way to keep me from the pain

I wasn't looking

All the colors were gray

It's hard to notice

When You're out in the rain

All of a sudden, colors are starting to change

You brought the light

Now the darkness is gone

The search is over now I know You are the one

Somebody tell me

Where did an angel come from?

Cuz You're more than just the one

(Chorus)

Yeah, You're more than what I wanted

Everything I never had

Gotta get right to Your heart

You can show me where it's at

You are the miracle I needed so bad

You're more than what I wanted

Everything I never had

Somethin about You

Can't say what it is

Thought You should know that

You are the reason I live

I would do anything to make You believe me somehow

So I'm telling You now that…

(Chorus)

Just let me say I would die for You

Give all I have to prove my love is true

And I'll never let You go...

More than what I wanted (x2)

More than I wanted

## Lyrics

When I was just a kid, my mom was on my back

She used to snatch me out of bed on Sunday morning

Head to Sunday School then straight to church

When the preacher starts, I start yawning

I was tired and read' to go

I couldn't wait to leave

But the choir sang - they were off the chain

I started feeling differently

They were swinging from side to side

Some lady said pass the mic

They were singing His praises I cried

Felt the spirit take over inside

It took over and made me shout

I caught myself and tried to close my mouth

I let it go and started shouting loud

I finally knew what the preacher's talking about

(Chorus)

I found the message in the music

I found the message in the music

I found the message in the music

I found the message in the music

When I was old enough, I used to hit the clubs

Me and my girls spent all night partying

When I got in the house, finally laying down

Couldn't make myself get up on Sunday morning

It came to me in a tragedy I needed God to see

So I found my way back to the church

And the choir spoke to me yeah

You're the only voice my heart can recognize

I'll never be the same

I'm caught inside the memories

The promises, our yesterdays

When I belonged to you

I just can't walk away

'Cause after loving you

I can never be the same

And how can I pretend I never knew you?

Like it was all a dream?

No

I know I'll never forget

The way I always felt with you beside me

And how you loved me then

Yeah

You led me here

But then I watched you disappear

You left this emptiness inside

And I can't turn back time

No, stay

Nothing compares to you

Nothing compares to you

I can't let you go

Can't let you go

I can't let you

I'll never be the same

Not after loving you, not after loving you
