The Good Lord Knows
03:33

The Good Lord knows what is right and what is true
Yes, the Good Lord knows what I need
There may come a day when things don't go your way
There may come a time with no more sunshine
But when the clouds come rolling in, I'm reminded
When the path is narrow and less defined
And when the horizon is out of sight
Though it may be muddy, wet and cold, I'm reminded
'Cause When it rains oh, it really rains
And it's falling on my head
And the hill I climb, I'm sliding down instead
I'm Reminded
Da da da, da da da, da da da da da, da
Da da da, da da da, da da
The Good Lord knows what is right and what is true
Yes, the Good Lord knows what I need

Colorado

When I look back on those good old days I used to know, used to know
Those tall green stalks in their perfect rows rolled on and on, on and on
and Ohhhhhh, Colorado
A game of hide and seek around and with our good tree friend, our good tree friend
A feast of wild wheat and purple thistle for dessert, for dessert
and Ohhhhhh, Colorado
Our fun soon ended when the sky began to weep and moan, weep and moan
Our friend foresaw the doom and quickly sent us on our way, on our way
and Ohhhhhh
and Ohhhhhh, Colorado

My Freedom
03:36
|
|||
|
I'm inclined to open up my mouth
and let the words fall out you've given me
to sing along to
So darling give an ear to hear this,
song of sweet forgiveness
waiting in the river, wading to our
waste
in the sweet and still water
where i'll stay in the cool of the day
So take me over flowered hill tops
dancing in the blossoms as the sunlight filters through
the trees along the grass bank,
growing ever closer to the one who's always loved
I finally found my freedom, my freedom I have finally
I finally found my freedom, my freedom I have finally
Grant me a gentle heart of mercy, you've opened up my eyes to see that
you are all I need
I finally found my freedom, my freedom I have finally
I finally found my freedom, my freedom I have finally
I finally found my freedom, my freedom I have finally
I finally found my freedom, my freedom I have finally
In the sweet and still water
where i'll stay in the cool of the day

When my life is a mess
And I don't know what's next
I will call Your Name
Cry out for, Your hand
When the feeling's all gone numb
And I don't know how come
I will call Your Name
Cry out for, Your hand
Home, is where you are
Home, is where you are
Where you are
There'll be joy everlasting
There'll be peace never ending
There'll be rest for the weary and oh how we need it
There'll be no more sorrow, no more pain
When I call Your name
When I can't see it all
and I barely do recall
I will call Your Name
Cry out for, Your hand
When I can't do any good
And I don't think I could
I will call Your Name
Cry out for, Your hand

You've Become
03:52
|
|||
|
I've been dreaming for some time
I've been wishing for a while
That i'd see you standing there
Standing next to me
I've been hoping all these years
That you'd see me standing here
I've been waiting so you know
Pining after you
It's time to move on
Leave you in my past
It's time to move on
'Cause holding onto you,
Once a way to pull me through
s'become a weight that pulls me down,
a weight that pulls me down, pulls me down
I've been thinking for some time
It might work the two of us
If you'd come back soon enough
We might just after all
But realistically
we're worlds so far apart
i'd like to say i'm done
hoping endlessly
It's time to move on
leave you in my past
It's time to move on
It's time to move on
Leave you in my past
It's time to move on
'Cause holding onto you,
Once a way to pull me through
s'become a weight that pulls me down,
s'become a weight that pulls me down,
a weight that pulls me down, pulls me down

Roots of a Tree
04:08
|
|||
|
My hands are numb, My feet are cold
From walking round this mountain
Time and time again…
I've been hunting searching digging,
Been looking for that treasure,
Buried in the ground
So far and few between…
But truth be told, what I need right now
is to build my house in the roots of a tree
Oh the warm glow of fire Burning in the hearth
Is closing out the darkness of the forest
All around…
I've grown too old, trying to do what's right
been second guessing, doubting
every step to take...
There's one thing I know,
I may know very little at that
I am always growing
and that will never end
But truth be told, what I need right now
is to build my house in the roots of a tree
Oh the warm glow of fire Burning in the hearth
Is closing out the darkness of the forest
All around… All around…
if I could hope, if i could dream, if I could see beyond what's here
I would climb with you
To the mountain top, hey,
where the sun is shining bright mmbright, mmmbright
But truth be told, what I need right now
is to build my house in the roots of a tree
Oh the warm glow of fire Burning in the hearth
Is closing out the darkness of the forest
All around… All around…

Wade in the Water
Wade in the Water children
Wade in the Water,
God's gonna trouble the Water
Who's that yonder dressed in red
Wade in the Water
Must be the Children that Moses led
God's gonna trouble the Water
Wade in the Water
Wade in the Water children
Wade in the Water,
God's gonna trouble the Water
Who's that yonder dressed in white
Wade in the Water
Must be the Children of the Israelites
God's gonna trouble the Water
Wade in the Water
Wade in the Water children
Wade in the Water,
God's gonna trouble the Water
Who's that yonder dressed in blue
Wade in the Water
Must be Children that's coming through
God's gonna trouble the Water
You don't believe I've been redeemed
Wade in the Water
Just see the holy ghost looking for me
God's gonna trouble the Water
Wade in the Water
Wade in the Water children
Wade in the Water,
God's gonna trouble the Water
Wade in the Water
Wade in the Water children
Wade in the Water,
God's gonna trouble the Water

Will Not Grow Weary
02:56
|
|||
|
Sometimes I look at the waves
and I look at the storm
how I'm anxious and worn
Got nothing done today
things aren’t in there place
that's ok, that's ok
no matter what will come my way
whatever they say
i'll take some grace for my day
But I will not grow tired, I will not grow bitter, I will not grow weary of doing what is right
I can't see the other side
i get stuck from time to time
but i won't stop no i won't stop
But I will not grow tired, I will not grow bitter, I will not grow weary of doing what is right
I will stand my ground, I will stand my ground, I will stand my ground
On this solid rock, on this solid rock, on this solid rock

Love Me
03:14
|
|||
|
If I knew just how to make you love me,
I mean really love me for who I am, not just what I do
If I had just the right complexion
The perfect hairdo and shoes, and popularity
If I were just a few years older
And with that wiser perhaps, just not what I am
Would you fall, fall, fall for me
Would you love, love, love me
If I were to show you all my failings,
All my short-comes and mistakes, would you dare to come near me
And if I were to let you look inside
What a close look reveals, would you love me just the same
And if I were to tell you all my problems
Would they be too much to bear, would you run, run far away
Can I ask you for a favor, Can you help me understand
Can you tell me exactly who I am… That you would…
Fall, fall, fall for me
That you’d love, love, love me
That you’d fall, fall, fall for me
That you’d love, love, love me

Everything
03:38
|
|||
|
Everything that you are wanting, comes to you at some great price
Today your happiness,
tomorrow’s your shame
Don’t give it all; don’t give it all for nothing
Don’t give it all; don’t give it all to waste
You are waiting, for something to change
For something to break
(repeat)
Nothing now seems to help, simply covers for a moment
The pain you wish to hide, the loneliness inside
Don’t give it all; don’t give it all for nothing
Don’t give it all; don’t give it all to waste
You are waiting, for something to change
For something to break
Do you see that how everything brings you down
Do you see that how everything brings you down
You are waiting, for something to change
For something to break
Don’t just wait for something to change
Before you realize you’ve got so much to live for
Don’t just wait for something to break
Before you realize you’re worth so much more
