Christmastime

Hey You -- It's Me

(MWS and Nik Kershaw)
"Deb, you really are the love of my life."

Hey you
Things to do
Live the life for faith and family
It's tough
With all that stuff
Filling your head
We know
The undertow
Could get us so we don't remember, but
Lest we ever
Lest we ever forget

Chorus:
Hey you, it's me
True lovers are we
Children under the sun
Two spirits in the name of one

Hey me
Got to be
Places to go and people there to see
No space
For back to base
And no time at all
We talk
Walk the walk
Run the race
And climb the ladder, but
If we ever
If we ever should fall

Sometimes the smoke clears
And I see things how they are
I see how we have come so far

Worth It All

(MWS,Tim Putnam and Deborah D. Smith)
"Kanukuk, you continue to inspire me. Love you guys!!"

Sometimes I wonder
What it's like
To be living life
On the other side

Please don't make me feel
Like I don't know what's out there
Proof is written
In the sky

Hey won't you listen
To me
It makes no difference
If I wish upon a star

The only absolute
Is that the
Word of life is
Written on my heart

Oh I believe
Yes, I believe

Chorus:
Hey look at me, living life for you
When it's good, when it's hard
You know me, you know my heart
Yea, yea, yea, I give up
Anything at all, when you call
All I know it's worth it all

I know you're scared
To let me know you
I know you got
A heavy kind of soul

And I know it's
Harder to believe
In love when you're
Feeling all alone

They're taking bets
On who the lover
Of your soul and your heart
Is gonna be

They're taking on
All the things
That get you down and out
The moment you believe

I believe in you
Yes I believe in you

I Will Be Your Friend

(MWS and Cindy Morgan)
"Thank you to all of my closest friends and comrades for being consistent and not giving up on me."

So many memories so many miles
The road that stretches behind us
We've had some laughter and our share of tears
But all these moments unite us

Chorus:
I'll be your friend for a lifetime
Against the wind and the rain of every season
Won't walk away in the hard times
I will be your friend
I will be your friend

Sure as the river runs to the sea
High as the mountain that reaches
You were there by my side till the end
(and) helped me on my feet again

Repeat chorus

So in the valley walk on
Don't have to face it alone
Cause in the hard times
We keep growing strong
And we learn as we live
That we live when we give

This Is Your Time

(MWS and Wes King)
"Inspired and in memory of Cassie Bernall. I look forward to meeting you on the other side."

It was a test we could all hope to pass
But none of us would want to take
Faced with the choice to deny god and live
For her there was one choice to make

This was her time
This was her dance
She lived every moment
Left nothing to chance
She swam in the sea
Drank of the deep
Embraced the mystery
Of all she could be
This was her time

Though you are mourning, and grieving your loss
Death died a long time ago
Swallowed in life, so her life carries on
Still, it's so hard to let go

This was her time
This was her dance
She lived every moment
Left nothing to chance
She swam in the sea
Drank of the deep
Embraced the mystery
Of all she could be
What if tomorrow
What if today
Faced with the question
Oh, what would you say

This is your time
This is your dance
Live every moment
Leave nothing to chance
Swim in the sea
Drink of the deep
Fall on the mercy
And hear yourself praying
Won't you save me

I Will Carry You

(MWS and Eric Laughlin)
"We were never meant to walk this road alone. Let's begin to stand in the gap for one another."

Sometimes I wonder if my beating heart has a reason
The thought of breathing only takes my breath away
I've spent so many nights wrestling with this feeling
Do I have the strength to make it through the days
But I was never meant
To walk this road alone
I can always trust you
When you say

Chorus:
I will carry you
Be your strength
And pull you through
Reach for me
And take my hand
We will pray
We will stand
In a world
Crying out for peace
Let your heart be strong
For when I am weak
You will carry me

Sometimes you wonder if the road you're on has a reason
It's hard to go on, when you just don't know
We can shoulder all the weight of life between us
Until the fear of what we cannot see is gone
'cause we were never meant
To ever walk this road alone
We are bound together
When we say . . .

Repeat chorus

Walk With Me

(MWS and Beth Neilsen Chapman)
"Whitney, I hope you know how much I love you. This song's for you. Dad."

From the first breath of her life
She flew straight into my arms
I used to catch her from the swings
When she was five . . .
And now she dances on the wind
In a world as hard as stone
She's so anxious to begin
And ready to fly . . .

Chorus:
And she walks with me
And she talks with me
And I hold her hand in mine
I know she'll find her way
Like the light of day
Cause it's love that makes her strong

Though I cannot stop the rain
And I cannot turn the tide
And I'm sure there will be things
That break her heart
I can only let her know
I am always on her side
And even as I let her go
I'll never be far

Chorus:
And she walks with me
And she talks with me
In her eyes I see her truth
Born of her fire and grace
As she finds her place
Cause it's love that makes her strong

And as she walks with me
And she talks with me
In my eyes she'll see my prayer
Now she turns each page
Through this tender age
It is love that makes her strong
It's her love that makes her strong

I'm Gone

(MWS and Ginny Owens)
"March of 1981 is a time I will never Forget. I was completely gone (for you Deb!)"

I see you smiling at me
And I fall into a daydream
Don't know what all of this means
Oh, is it love?
Logic is slipping away
My heart's on a runaway train

Chorus:
I'm gone, yes I'm gone, yes I'm gone and it feels so right

Each time I look in your eyes
So glad you came into my life
Much more than emotional high
Oh, this is love
I know that I've made up my mind
I'll stay for the rest of my life

Repeat chorus

Still Have A Dream

(MWS, Raymond A. Boyd and Kevin Jonas)
"Don't you ever forget that he has given us a future and a hope."

Said it's sad, said it was a shame
Bet you thought I caught a boat to bombay
On the line just to let you know
I will be around

Underneath the bridge to nowhere
Like I'm livin' out a game of solitaire or but it's not where I plan
To stay
(but he promised not more than I could bear)
Goin' up to a better day (somewhere)
I will be around

Hey world, it's me
Still have the heart, (still) have the dream

Chorus:
(come on,) people
We've got to come together
(it's you) and me (it's you it's me)
It's our finest hour (hope will make us stronger)
(freedom) it rings (sings)
(do you hear it (the) calling)
(reach out) and touch (your hand)
Love will take us higher

(somebody threw a brick at my vision)
(tried to sabotage my mission)
Either way, I believe
I will be around

I want to know, people are you with me
Dare to open up your eyes and see or just believe and feel (see)
The destiny
Take a step, let me hear you say
I will be around

Hey world, it's me
Still have the heart, (still) have the dream

Repeat chorus

Breakdown: spoken
For he knows the plans he has for you
A plan to prosper and not to harm you
To give you a future, and a hope

Reach Out To Me

(MWS and Dan Haseltine)
"The battle is intense as never before. Lord, I need you and want you so desperately. Please hang on to me."

Another million miles from the truth now
I know there's peace but I can't figure out how
To stop this race that's taking over me I'm
Under the gun I wait for you to see

Chorus:
Oh, please reach out to me
Open my eyes to see
I'm running from you now
Come rescue me somehow

Another scar from fighting the truth now
Has left me like a stranger to my need now
A masquerade, a game to figure out now
A cruel charade I cannot scream aloud

Repeat chorus

A narrow stretch of road in the way now
A heavy load still hanging on to me now
I'm in a maze that I can't seem to get out
Without a view from these shoulders of doubt

Anna

(MWS and Wayne Kirkpatrick)
"Finally, this song made it on a CD. Anna, you are amazing! Thanks for the hugs and kisses.

Jack is in the corner
The dish is with the spoon
The sheep is in the meadow
The cow is on the moon
But I am here with you and I believe
There's no other place I'd rather be
And a promise not to leave you
Is a promise I can keep

Chorus:
You're my muse
You're my rhyme
You're the fire warming this heart of mine
When you hear me say "i love you"
Anna, do you know how much I do?

So I watch you from a distance
Getting lost within your world
You pretend to be a princess
As you flutter and you twirl
Fragile as the flower in your hair
Dancing in your castle, unaware
That a single day without you
Would be more than I could bear

Everybody Free

(MWS and Chris Rice)
"I belong to you and you belong to me. I truly am free. Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

The longing in my heart has stirred a faded memory
Of my young heart beating fast behind the willow tree
I was counting out loud, and I only peeked a time or two
And the only purpose in my life was finding you
Singing "ollie, ollie, everybody free!"
Now was I chasing you or were you chasing me?

We all grow up and put away our childhood games
But deep inside I wonder if we really change
"cause I'm still seeking, though I've learned to hide so well
And I can still remember how it felt
Singing "ollie, ollie everybody free!"
Will I ever find someone pursuing me?

Chorus:
And then you caught me by surprise
I found my tears are in your eyes
I hear my heart inside of you
At last I've found somebody who
Can free my soul
And love me too

I can't believe we hide so long and run so well
When all the while we're aching to be caught and held
But it's only in surrender that our freedom comes
And so I run abandoned to your waiting arms
Singing "ollie, ollie, everybody free!"
I belong to you and you belong to me!

Repeat chorus

singin' "ollie, ollie, everybody free!"

Cassie

(MWS)
"What satan intended for harm, god has turned into good. May you embrace the truth that will truly give you peace and set you free."
