We Are A Beginning May our standing ask permission To be a kind of benediction To a love we know is bigger than ourselves The spirit and your witness Is bearing light upon our weakness Giving weight to what we cannot see alone We come with what we are We come with what we've done We come with what we are We are a beginning In faith we look to Comfort She is laying her old hands upon our souls as we discover We are waking more to hope Your committed celebration Is part of our salvation Holding on to what we know we cannot hold alone Because we are not that strong Sometimes afraid of what we've done We are not that strong But we are a beginning We are a beginning Pray for the bravery To act upon the kindness of forgiveness And the mystery of clarity sometimes Mercy is grateful to go under all our failures Thanks be to Christ for severity That's kissed us on our cheeks May our standing ask permission To be a kind of benediction To a love we know is bigger than ourselves Because we are not that strong Most times afraid of what we've done Oh we are not that strong But we are a beginning We are a beginning We are a beginning We are a beginning Girl On Fire we're coming to a standstill you think you're magic with your strong will but this is love and not justice he's hurting everything he touches you cannot carry what he clutches he needs a mother and confession and he does not tell you you are precious well how about some love and clarity a sense that you are family I'd like to help but you're on fire how about some peace and honesty some hard-core hope and clarity you are a precious girl on fire we're coming to a standstill i think you're magic with your strong will but this is love and not justice he's hurting everything he touches you cannot carry what he clutches he needs a father and some healing and he forgets his own words well how about some love and charity a sense that you are family you are a precious girl on fire how about respect and dignity some hard-core hope and clarity you are a precious girl on fire and there is so much in forgiveness but he is sticking with his business how about some love and charity a sense that you are family you are a precious girl on fire you are a careful mystery not someone's cheap commodity you are a precious girl on fire The Valley When it seems that darkness covers you In the valley I'll pray the kingdom comes soon When daylight is a distant memory In the valley I'll pray that Jesus comes soon In the valley In the valley Try not to be afraid for long if you can help it In the valley I'll send you a picture of my little girl And like a flower you can burst forth smiling Even in the valley Still, I'll pray that Jesus comes soon In the valley In the valley In the valley In the valley Ah Ah Ah Ah When it seems that you have nothing left to offer but your sorrow Remember where there is grace there is no shame And as it happens light has nowhere else to happen but The valley And maybe something's trying to break through Love Is Breathing life's come out from inside all caught up in a brand new smile alive love's come out from inside carefully willingly and you are alive so alive love is breathing like a child come out life suspended in the gravity of care never ending does the child come out hope's come out from inside and we are all caught up trying to hide but you are alive more alive love is breathing like a child come out life suspended in the gravity of care never ending does the child come out you're more alive when you try growing down, enter the kingdom!, child move the buildings to the fire and color our most desperate cries with ease, please, child Love is breathing like a tree on fire consuming violent and tender life love is breathing...alive...breathing Give A Little Bit Give a little bit Give a little bit of your love to me I'll give a little bit I'll give a little of my love to you There's so much that we need to share So send a smile and show you care I'll give a little bit I'll give a little bit of my life for you So give a little bit Give a little bit of your time to me See the man with the lonely eyes Oh take his hand You'll be surprised Give a little bit Give a little bit of your love to me I'll give a little bit of my life for you Now's the time that we need to share So find yourself, we're on our way back home Give a little bit Give a little bit of your love to me Give a little bit I'll give a little bit of my love to you Give a little bit Give a little bit of your love to me I'll give a little bit I'll give a little bit of my love to you Midnight The sun went down that's when she started seeing things Midnight souls with top hat cloaks and diamond rings Undertaker suitors staring like they knew her She was not impressed She opened up the window where she met the wind Time and time again she is her closest friend Coming and going the wind she brushed her forehead She was not afraid In the desert of the heart let the healing waters start In the doubting place of dark she is holding Walking on a sidewalk alter time unkept She is trying to remember what somebody said Her arms long forward even when the longing is already in her arms In the desert of the heart let the healing waters start In the doubting place of dark she is holding Holding Hit And Run i got caught up in my own right i didn't notice all the search lights and getting caught up in my own right i think i killed a man i was on my way...i was on my way should i stop or should i stay i didn't know him anyway should i see if he's okay i got caught up in my own sight i didn't notice all the search lights and getting caught up in my own sight i think i could lose my soul i was on my way...i was on my way should i stop or should i stay i didn't know him anyway should i see if he's okay does he even have a name i got caught up in my own rights She Stumbles Through The Door She looks over her shoulder with a half specific glare As if it were the past An interception of intentions from a once familiar path A promise broken in half On the pages of a memo are picturesque cliches she once called providence Fragments of Picasso with running lines undone That wrecked her confidence Is there any sense why she let go It was what she thought was right Through all the gloom and might of living in between And it was like she said A chance to learn instead Of staying in the lines and never knowing why She stumbles through the door Were the angels fighting demons in the corner of her room Or was it happenstance That she would catch a glimpse of loving safety more than life A faithless circumstance So she let go It was what she thought was right Through all the gloom and might of living in between And it was like she said A chance to learn instead Of staying in the lines and never knowing why She stumbles through the door Now her reasoning is theory living out a grand crusade Of greater magnitude And the consequence of failure is a possibility But will it break the truth Oh she won't know Until she lets go And it what she thought was right through all the gloom and might of living in between And it was like she said a chance to learn instead Of staying in the lines and never knowing why She stumbles through the door She stumbles through the door She stumbles through the door Hope We'll be taking off our clothes to sing We'll be wearing our own skin We'll be taking off a whole lot more Just so we can sing Just so we can sing Hope is coming out tonight Knocking at the door You've got to let that stranger in Looking at your soul Looking at your soul A peeling and a shedding mind Changing what we are worth Blessed are the meek somehow Taking in the earth They are taking in the earth And all this talk of love and peace And wanting something true Well peace can cut the rope sometimes That's holding on to me and you That's holding on to me and you Hope is coming out tonight Knocking at the door You've got to let that stranger in Looking at your soul Looking at your soul No sentimental bags of gold To occupy the hurt It's knowing what the demons sold When falling to the earth When falling to the earth Now I am stretching out across the land Trying my best to understand While fear is barking like a dog But I am holding out my hand Still holding out my hand Hope is coming out tonight Knocking at the door You've got to let that stranger in Looking at your soul Looking at your soul Home I'd like to sleep for one more hour or two Hour or two You look like dad when he slept really hard Through everything Now everything's gold and like Christmas Home This all feels so familiar Home Are we really getting older Home I wish I could remember That little hill seemed like a mountain then We were shorter then And we'd wonder just how it was going to be When here we are And it's not too bad Quite good in fact We are Home You are like poetry and feathers Home The way you button up your sweater Home The one you chose for colder weather Home This all feels so familiar Home Are we really getting older Home I wish I could remember everything cool I'd like to sleep for one more hour or two Hour or two
