------------------------------------------------------------- Top Of Page He is a Song The lonliness is bitter They tell me you have known No parents and no children, No-one to call you home I pray for you a family Within the Father's plan But even more, I pray that you will come to understand CHORUS That He is a light in the deepest shadow And the wings of a spirit in flight He is a stream in the dry, burning desert He is a song in the longest night There is a holy kinship That you tell me you have known But in the rush of serving You wonder where it's gone I pray you will remember A younger heart's desire I pray that He will blow upon The embers of this fire REPEAT CHORUS BRIDGE He is the dearest friend While others come and go He is the dearest friend That you will ever know, May you ever know REPEAT CHORUS He is a song He is a song He is a song in the longest night ----------------------------------------- Top Of Page He is No Fool There once was a man born of high circumstance Heir to advantage, He had every chance to succeed But light from the cross made his dreams appear small And to their surprise he went far--from it all For the love of his Savior, for one priceless jewel They could not understand so they called him a fool Chorus He is no fool If he would choose To give the thing he cannot keep To buy what he can never lose To see a treasure in one soul That far outshines the brightest gold He is no fool, He is no fool He is no fool, He is no fool There once was a boy who could run like the wind Given to lead, every man was his friend at the line But light from the cross made his race appear small And to their amazement, he followed the call For the love of his Savior, for one priceless jewel They could not understand so they called him a fool He is no fool If he would choose To give the thing he cannot keep To buy what he can never lose To see a treasure in one soul That far outshines the brightest gold He is no fool, He is no fool He is no fool, He is no fool Show me the fool who abandons his life To walk in the steps of our Lord Jesus Christ He is no fool If he would choose To give the thing he cannot keep To buy what he can never lose To see a treasure in one soul That far outshines the brightest gold He is no fool, He is no fool He is no fool, He is no fool ---------------------------------------------- Top Of Page How Beautiful How beautiful the hands that served The wine and the bread and the sons of the earth How beautiful the feet that walked The long dusty road and the hill to the cross How beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ How beautiful the heart that bled That took all of my sin ande bore it instead How beautiful the tender eyes That choose to forgive and never despise How beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ And as He laid down His life we offer this sacrifice That we will live just as He died, willing to pay the price Willing to pay the price How beautiful the radiant bride Who waits for her Groom with His light in her eyes How beautiful when humble hearts give The fruit of pure love so that others may live How beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ How beautiful the feet that bring The sound of good news and the love of the King How beautiful the hands that serve The wine and the bread and the sons of the earth How beautiful, how beautiful, how beautiful is the body of Christ --------------------------------------------------------------- Top Of Page I Saw Three Ships I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day, on Christmas day I saw three ships come sailing in On Christmas day, in the morning O, they sailed into Bethlehem On Christmas day, on Christmas day O, they sailed into Bethlehem On Christmas day, in the morning The Lord was born in Bethlehem On Christmas day, on Christmas day The Lord was born in Bethlehem On Christmas day, in the morning And all the bells on earth shall ring On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the bells on earth shall ring On Christmas day, in the morning And all the bells in heaven shall ring On Christmas day, on Christmas day And all the bells in heaven shall ring On Christmas day, on Christmas day On Christmas day ----------------------------------------- Top Of Page I See You Standing Every day I hear it evil is abroad Making even children enemies of God Yet somehow I always find above the crowd Other voices pleading, crying truth aloud And I don't know your name But I think I see your face CHORUS I see you standing in the fire Standing on the Word remembering the call I see you standing, standing I see you standing tall In the dire struggle you have held your ground Wisdom and the passion form a mighty sound Thunder in the distance, you are not alone Winds of courage rushing from the righteous throne And I don't know your name But I can see your face REPEAT CHORUS BRIDGE You're bringin hope inside my heart And motion to my feet I know my friend that someday we will meet And I don't know your name But I can see your face REPEAT CHORUS ----------------------------------------------- Top Of Page I Will Never Go So many people we know And even more that we don't Have decided "together" is worse than "alone" And I believe it is time That I am taking a stand Love, I gave you my word when I gave you my hand And I haven't the right to tear us apart To break this vow, to break His heart Chorus I will never go I will never go I want you to know I will never go And so with tears in their eyes They turn and stumble away But they cannot be alone in the price that they pay I gave a promise to you We took a vow before Him A solemn covenant shared with family and friends And I haven't the right to tear us apart To break this vow, to break His heart I will never go I will never go I want you to know I will never go I understand that crazy things can happen I understand that life can take a toll I know how it can hurt to keep a promise But man-made options only scar a soul I will never go I will never go I want you to know I will never go ----------------------------------------------------- Top Of Page I Will Wait I will wait on the Lord I will wait for His word Because I fear His holy name I will wait I will wait I will wait on the Lord I will wait for His word Before I move Before I speak Perfect wisdom I will seek And I will wait As long as it takes I will wait on the Lord I will wait on the Lord --------------------------------------------- Top Of Page It's the Thought And a loving thought sends us out to find Something special for someone on our mind And we think of friends and family As we hang our gifts on the Christmas tree It's the thought that counts when the thought is love It's the thought that counts when you're thinking of How the money flows in vast amounts When the thought is love it's the thought that counts And a loving thought sent a snow white lamb To a little town known as Bethlehem And the little lamb thought of you and me As He hung His gift on the Christmas tree It's the thought that counts when the thought is love It's the thought that counts when you're thinking of How the money flows in vast amounts It's the thought that counts when the thought is love Think of the precious gift He gave Think of the life He thought to save And the blood flowed in vast amounts When the thought is love, it's the thought that counts When the thought is love, it's the thought that counts When the thought is love, it's the thought that counts ------------------------------------------------------- Top Of Page Midwinter In bleak midwinter, frosty wind made moan Earth stood hard as iron, water like a stone Snow had fallen, snow on snow on snow In the bleak midwinter, long ago Our God, heav'n cannot hold Him, nor earth sustain Heav'n and earth shall flee away when He comes to reign In the bleak midwinter, a stable place sufficed The Lord God Almighty, Jesus Christ What can I give Him, poor as I am If I were a shepherd, I would bring a lamb If I were a wine man, I would do my part Yet, what I can, I give Him, give my heart ---------------------------------------------- Top Of Page Neverending Love I am here to confess the same old thing How can He still be listening How many times will He forgive Rescue me from the way I live What does it take To weave a net that will not break Chorus Everlasting, neverending love without condition Everlasting, neverending, neverending love It can seem every time you turn around Somebody else has let you down How many times must we forgive Following Him, how should we live What does it take To weave a net that will not break Everlasting, neverending love without condition Everlasting, neverending, neverending love Love that chose to die for those Who don't deserve to live As we are forgiven So must we forgive Everlasting, neverending love without condition Everlasting, neverending, neverending love Love is neverending, Love is neverending Love is ever forgiving, Never ending love -------------------------------------------------- Top Of Page Nothing But Love He was an independent son Always on the run No time to listen To the Father He stood alone to face the gale So afraid to fail Afraid to listen to a brother Then suddenly Like a memory The candle in his heart Burst into flame And patiently, Oh so patiently The voice of mercy, truth and light Spoke once again into the night How can this be? What do you see? CHORUS Nothing but love, In its purest form Nothing but love Could enter the storm Challenge the pride Clouding his eyes Nothing but love Could lead him in Nothing but love Could do it again Is there an independent son Always on the run? Be still, and listen To the Father Underneath the weight you bear So afraid to share, Open the curtain To a brother Then suddenly More than memory The candle in your heart Can be a flame And patiently, Oh so patiently The voice of mercy, truth and light Will speak again into the night How can this be, Oh, do you see?
