No! I'm Not Afraid
03:10

No! I'm not afraid
I won't be the one that gets in your way and
No! I won't be ashamed
Shout it from the rooftops that you save
And I, I will not be moved
I'm not afraid
I won't be the one that gets in your way 'cause You
You alone are true
You speak the truth
I won't believe the lies coming in my view
And I will face the day
When my guilt has gone, my guilt has gone away
And it's all because of the price you paid
The stone's been rolled away
The stone's been rolled away
Behold! You are the King
There is no one else in who's name I sing
Bold! I do believe
I will not be silenced by anything
My strength, my strength comes from the Lord
Of everything
He will make the frost turn into spring; I'm cold
But soon I will be warm
Wrapped up in Your
Overwhelming love knocking at my door
And I will face the day
When my guilt has gone, my guilt has gone away
And it's all because of the price you paid
The stone's been rolled away
The stone's been rolled away
And I see you beneath the troubles that I face
I want to raise you above all my ways
No! I'm not afraid
I won't be the one that gets in your way and
No! I won't be ashamed
Shout it from the rooftops that you save
And I, I will not be moved
I'm not afraid
I won't be the one that gets in your way 'cause You
You alone are true
You speak the truth
I won't believe the lies coming in my view
I'll obey the purpose that you move
I'll follow all the truth and love you prove in me

Tribute

It’s always hard to find the words
To describe the man who gave me
A life that has a humble heart
In this world of hate
A light that never seems to fade
I cannot relate to hate
I cannot relate
Cause he gave me Christ
I remember many times
When sacrifice was not a rare find
He would always sacrifice
Jesus, take the wheel and steer
He would always be my guide
Even when I wouldn’t hear his cry
When I wouldn’t hear
He showed me Christ
You were always filled with faith
You were always filled with wisdom
You were always living free
You were always living Jesus’ way
So I give these words to you
And watch as you prepare to live through
Life as an example free
And for this I am so proud
You’ll continue to believe
Even when what’s wrong is loud
Even when what's wrong is loud
Even when what's wrong is loud

No Other Hope
04:02
|
|||
|
God might kill me, but I have no other hope
He is within me and I hold nothing to scope
I am dead to all my own decisions
I am dead to all my “human rights”
I give it all to You cause none of it is worth anything to me
Compared to the glory of Your grace; it sets me free
Love me with the depth of the sea; come and stretch me till I’m buckling at the knees
I need You more than anything; You set me free
(Free me)
Please come stay with me
I can’t believe in me without You
Don’t let me be
I need You now
I need You now
I will not be swayed by my own imperfections
I’ll place my faith in my Savior’s resurrection
I am dead to all the sins I’ve made
I’m alive because of my Savior’s grave
I give it all to You cause none of it is worth anything to me
Compared to the glory of Your grace; it sets me free
Love me with the depth of the sea; come and stretch me till I’m buckling at the knees
I need You more than anything; You set me free
The anger of my Lord
Lasts only for a moment
The favor of my Lord
Forever holds
The anger of my Lord
Lasts only for a moment
The favor of my Lord
Forever holds
Forever holds
Forever holds
Forever holds

Just Like Me
03:49
|
|||
|
I don’t think I want a funeral when I die
I’d rather you forget my whole screwed up life
Cause everything I did for you tonight
I did it all for all the wrong reasons
And I don’t mean to be
A hater of what’s me
Cause I love myself almost as much as you
But I can’t take credit for
Everything that you adore
Most of it’s lost to my sore
Fallen heart
I try to be humble and pure
Everything that you are sure
Is the whole reason to be
Just like me
But I give to the poor just to try and get more
From the one who delivers me
And I love you so just so that you’ll show
Me your love and you’ll cherish me
I am a faker, it’s true
Everything I do for you
I selfishly do for my own
Flawed agenda
It’s not that I’m always out for me and mine
But I can’t keep my heart clean inside
It’s not that I don’t love you; I really do
But my Savior’s love is perfect and mine falls through
He’s forgiven me
For everything you’ve seen
And he loves me still despite my falling through
But I can’t take credit for
Everything that you adore
Most of it’s lost to my sore
Fallen heart
I try to be humble and pure
Everything that you are sure
Is the whole reason to be
Just like me
But I give to the poor just to try and get more
From the one who delivers me
And I love you so just so that you’ll show
Me your love and you’ll cherish me
Yeah, I give to the poor just to try and get more
From the one who delivers me
And I love you so just so that you’ll show
Me your love and you’ll cherish me
I am a faker, it’s true
Everything I do for you
I selfishly do for my own
Flawed agenda
But my Savior is true
He will always love you
He will love you for who you are
He will love you for who you are

Least of These
05:39
|
|||
|
But for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing
Oh how I long to be free from the weather
Free from the snow and the rain
Oh how I long to be free from desire
The freedom of nothing to gain
Remember, remember
Our lives are but only a moment in time
We were designed for much more
But for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing
I will enjoy all the blessings you give me
I’ll play in the snow and the rain
Though I am ready to be done here
Your work over here isn’t done
So use me, Lord use me
I will fall and I’ll crack myself open
But that’s how your love will shine through
So for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing
And I know that you’ll show
Me the way to be to deliver me
To the broken and outspoken
To reveal to all how your mercy calls
So for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing

Reason to Grow
04:50
|
|||
|
I don’t mean to impose
But I need to know
Where you find
Your reason to grow
Your reason to grow
I need mine
I’m failing everything just because I refuse to try
I’m losing all the faith in myself that I could find
And I’m trying hard to keep on my good side
But I’m finding out how deep the issues lie for
What feels right doesn’t fit the game and now
I’m fighting just to stay the same somehow
When all I need is a transformation
And all I want is a defamation
Face forward
Move onward
Tomorrow
Will follow
Left my pride on the door step
Ten years ago
When I found
These addictions that keep me
Locked and controlled
I’m still bound
I’m bloodied and I’m bruised from the wounds that I’ve applied
I’m broken and confused by the thoughts that I’ve supplied
And I’m trying hard to keep on my good side
But I’m finding out how deep the issues lie ’cause
What feels right doesn’t fit the game and now
I’m fighting just to stay the same somehow
When all I need is a transformation
And all I want is a defamation
What feels right doesn’t fit the game and now
I’m fighting just to stay the same somehow
When all I need is a transformation
And all I want is a defamation
Face forward
Move onward
Tomorrow
Will follow

Believe
04:07
|
|||
|
See the burning bush
Hear the voice of God
Bow before the throne
You stand on holy ground
Believe it’s real
How could you doubt, Thomas?
You stand before your God
You see his nail-torn hands
You see his pierced side
Believe it’s real
You never cared to listen
You’re blind to all religion
And while the morning glistens
You curse the sun
Believe it’s real

Fighting for the Day
04:51
|
|||
|
I’m sorry to comply
It’s hard to think that I
Would ever find myself in others’ shoes
And though I’m haunted by
This conformity of mine
I can’t release the faith I have in Christ
He’s no tradition; traditions fade
He’s no religion; religions change
I’ve questioned everything under the sun
And really there’s not that much that’s won
But every time I try to question Christ
I somehow always seem to come out blind
Now I’m not one to lie
On the backs of others’ lies
In fact I’d rather be completely blind
But listen to me now
I’ll never fail to lounge
On the back of He who never lets me down
For
I’m just a sinner, and I will change
But my decision is to be saved
So listen to me now
I’m fighting for the day
When we can see that Christ is
Not a dumb cliche
Forgive me if I come
Across a bit to strong
But I am sick and tired of
The rap that’s going down

It Wasn't Worth It
04:41
|

|
Could I have known
That she felt that way
Could I have known
I would never have said it that way
And the blame
It rests upon my head
It’s the same thing
As if I shot her dead, shot her dead
An early grave for my best friend
I should have listened when she said
It’s not worth it
And now I’m stuck here in pain
And she has died in vain
Could I have been there
Maybe she would still
Be right here
And we could grow old and frail
An early grave for my best friend
I should have listened when she said
It’s not worth it
It wasn’t worth it
It wasn't worth it

Nevermind the Aftermath
03:20
|
|||
|
Nevermind the aftermath of war
Justify the consequence of your
Decision to get into this, this war
Look at all the dead bodies you ignore
Force yourself to realize you’re the author
Of this mess you walk through, you’re so sore
Would you teach your children this truth?
And would they grow up to be just like you?
Who would they kill?
Who will they kill?
When they grow up
Only if you could forget what’s right and wrong
Then you could run this place so strong
Take on every obstacle with your arm
Life just doesn’t work that way, my friend
And death’s what happens when you try to pretend
That life’s just one big competition
Cause only one survives then, would it be you?
So you go teach your children this truth
And watch them grow up to be just like you
Watch them kill their sons and daughters too
Watch them make the same mistakes as you
