1. Born
Into this world, short of life,
without breath, void of light.
Into this world, short of life,
without breath, void of light.
2. Vacant Room
There must be more, to this vacant room that i’ve been sitting in.
Scratching at the walls, imprisoned in this state of mind.
Brought into life with no hope in sight.
Scratching at the walls of my new found home, the paint sits deep under my nails,
A constant reminder of the attempts i've made,To escape from this place, to free myself from pain.
To loosen these chains.
To escape from this place, to free myself from pain,
To rid my heart of hate. Rid my life of hate.
My mind, an empty room with no windows to see through.
Isolated from the truth(from the truth).
Do my eyes deceive me by what they have not seen,
Freedom, the one desire that will never cease.There must be more to this life of mine.
There is something deep inside that testifies of a greater kind.
I cannot simply reach out for something better.
I sit here incapable of such a feat, predetermined defeat,
Unable to see past these walls around me.
My mind, an empty room with no windows to see through.
Isolated from the truth(from the truth).
Do my eyes deceive me by what they have not seen,
Freedom, the one desire that will never cease.
My heart, it needs to change.
I need a change.
3. Broken Hands
Purpose, isn't found in my broken hands or my selfishness.
Everything they have told me has broken my spirit,
and it has left me, without a plan or a purpose for this life that i am meant to lead.
I’m a broken man, I find no purpose in these hands, I can’t build anything for myself.
They have left me, with no guideline or outline of what or who I am meant to be.
Everythings unclear(everything that I see here), so tell me what, what do you expect from me?
Im just a broken man, gripping to life with a broken hand.
I wish, I had the strength to live a life, a life free of regret.
All these thoughts running through my head, in my own strength, I think i'd just wind up dead.
Lend me a helping hand, someone teach me to be a better man.
It’s like i've heard it all before.Give me a reason to breath or I won’t breath at all.
Living through all this pain, living amongst this hate, I cant bear another day.
What could I do, what could I say, that could make this pain go away,
What could I do, what could I say,I cant bear another day, and it’s eating me away.
I am alone and cold, hopeless and broken and wretched with no place to go.
I am alone and cold, in desperate need of a purpose and a chance of hope.
I wish, I had the strength to live a life, a life, full of hope.
To live a life, free of regret.
Give me the strength.
4. The Wide Path
You've been swept away, the little hope that we have is wasting away.
Swallowed up by the grips of the tide, submerged in treachery, fathoms from a single breath.
Your life expectancy is only measured in seconds.
The little hope we have, is wasting away.
The little hope we have, is wasting away, day after day.
I see past all the haze, all they have made you out to be.
So follow me to the surface, take a chance, take a breath, and follow me.
Would you rather be, the nameless, the faceless, the lifeless, a man with no eyes to see.
Would you dare stray from the wide path to see what you could become.
Would you dare.
Seek out truth, with your whole heart & it will find you.
Seek out truth, with your whole heart & it will find you.
There is no mistake to be made, He will find you, there is no mistake to be made.
Make your way to the surface, He will meet you there, He will find you.
Would you dare to become all that you were made to be.
Would you dare stray from the wide path to see.
I see past all the haze, all they have made you out to be.
Take a chance, take a breath, and follow me.
Would you rather be, the nameless, the faceless, the lifeless, a man with no eyes to see.
Would you dare stray from the wide path to see what you could become.
5. Solid Ground
Help to keep me, firmly on the ground, I need to feel the gravity.
I need solid ground under my feet, because I am drifting away.
I am drifting away, and it wasn't my intention to be this way, forever slipping away.
All they say they claim to be true.
Pull me closer to you.
Pull me closer to you, free me from the grips of those who aim to stop you.
The enemy paints these skies with lies to keep me off this floor.
Their persuasive ways have tricked me before.
They haven't stopped for years, they are pulling me away in desperation.
For fear of what i've found in you.
Be my gravity.
Help to keep me, firmly on the ground, I need to feel your gravity.
I need solid ground under my feet, because I am drifting away.
I know You planned it out, You knew that it would end this way.
I'm not easily swayed.
Ill stand here, immovable, firm in my footing, firm in my faith.
Away from the lies that they say, All that they said, all that they said.
Now its all clear to me.
Now its all so clear to me.
Standing right here.
6. Renewer
I’m crying out for, someone to take, to take this away from me.
My pain, it still remains.
Despite all the things I have seen,and all i've come to be.
I still struggle, my life is on the line.
So now I walk in this shadow, a few steps from the light.
I am so close to the decision that will change my life.
On the edge, I see my future out in front of me.
The only thing in my way is all I used to be.
Stand down, step aside, my wicked mind and my pride.
I’m done with you.
Take, take it all upon yourself.
To the man I was, to the man ive been, you are dead to me,
and I am dead to you.
So now I walk in freedom, and I see where i’ve been.
This heart, in my chest has been washed clean.
Now I am new,
My Renewer, my Healer, my Saviour, my God.
7. Bright Eyes
[Instrumental]
8. Awake To The Sound
This darkness, left me with nothing
I could not see, and I was captivated, in disbelief (in disbelief)
But now, my eyes are open. I have new sight and you are the light that I'm chasing
If only you were standing right in front of me
I hate this separation, this is not where I'm meant to be
We must be together, there's nothing else that this world can offer me
But I wont give up, and I wont give in.
Can you hear the sound [3x]
There's no sweeter sound than the footsteps of the Almighty
Coming to find me, coming to bring me home
Come find us, here we are.
Sitting and hoping and seeking your love to overflow
Because I owe everything that I am to you,
And everything I have belongs to your kingdom
I must bare the truth [2x]
Can you hear the sound?
There's no sweeter sound than the footsteps of the Almighty
Coming to find me, coming to bring me home
There's no sweeter sound [4x]
I can hear the footsteps,
I can hear him coming
I can hear the footsteps
I can hear him coming
To take us home.
There's no sweeter sound [3x]
I can hear the footsteps [2x]
Of the Almighty.
9. Strength
I will bare myself to the world.
In my truest of forms, I will stand firm in the things you have called me to.
The blood runs thick in these veins.
Blood that is not my own, not my own.
The very core, of who I am has shifted drastically.
My intentions have changed my outlook on everything.
Now I go by a different name, with a different face to the one that preceded me.
I am a whole new creation, all of me is devoted to You.
All that I was called to has come to pass.
Ive been given strength that I have never known before.
I will never back down again, never again.
All that I was called to has come to pass.
Your work in me, has changed everything.
I turned away from who I was, to realise who I truly am.
All that You've made me to be.
In my truest form, You have given me the strength.
You have given me a strength I have never known before.
I will bare myself to the world.
In my truest form, I will stand firm in all that You've called me to, in my truest form.
All the world will see what You have made of me.
Everyone will know that you are King.
10. All That Awaits
Truth is calling out, He is crying out your name,
What would it take for you to know,
What would it take for us to see.
Truth has paved the way, there is life to be attained, there is no reason to doubt you.
Show us Your ways, reveal to us, all that awaits.
All that awaits.
What would it take for us to lose grip of this mindless state, return to knowledge that was intended for us.
No longer, will we live in absence, no longer, no longer will we deny You.
We have not a single reason to doubt You.
By your grace, we see all that was kept from us.
I am a completely new man, with my eyes set on your plan.
What would it take, to explain what i’m feeling, understanding all that awaits me.
I have found something, that has changed every part of me.
The truth is our for the taking. The truth is ours for the taking,
As You have graciously shown.
What would it take for you to know(for you to know).
What would it take for you to see(for you to see).
We strive in life, to a place of nearness to our God.
All that awaits us, is at the foot of His throne.
All that I ask, all that I ask, is for you to, walk through the gates, walk through His gates.
Walk with us, walk with us.
I would give it all, to see this through. I would give it all, to see this through.
All I ask, all that I ask, all that i’m asking is for you to walk through the gates,
walk with us, walk through His gates.
Walk with us, walk through the gates.
11. Beyond The Gates
I open my eyes to the skies to see You standing there right in front of me,
wearing a light far too bright for my eyes to perceive.
You open the gates, take my hand and You guide me in.
Into your presence Lord and the the love that You hold within.
You were before and You are right now, You forever will be here with me.
Forget the world, all it has You surpass for You outshine it all.
Leaving behind my selfish mind still You never let me fall.
Absence of time now is mine spent forever by your side in your arms at your feet.
I will worship You my King, we are no more obsolete.
You were before and You are right now, You forever will be here with me.
You were before and You are right now, You forever will be here with me.
In Your presence I will sing songs that praise Your name,
I will singloudly with no shame of how You conquered the grave.
In Your presence is where I belong, grant my heart just this one song to sing You forever and ever.
Hallelujah You are my King, hallelujah to You I will sing.
Though I know not very much, I've known You not very long.
The little I can give I will give You through this song.
You were before and You are right now, You forever will be here with me.
You forever will be here with me.
12. Victory
After all these years, after all ive come to know, after eveything i’ve seen,
I am proud, I am proud of who You have made me to be,
and I know I can stand here,with fire in my eyes & my brothers at my side.
Nothing can defeat me.
I see through all the lies.
For in the name of Christ we declare our victory.
This truth I hold has destroyed my enemy.
Victory.
Jesus has come & paid the price for every single life.
On the cross, blood bought victory, we stand redeemed, we stand redeemed.
Victory.
By His blood we stand redeemed.
