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

. . .


(Michael W. Smith/ Tim Putnam/ Deborah D. Smith)

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 now
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

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

. . .



So many memories and 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

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'm saying 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

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'm saying I will be your friend

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

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'm saying I will be your friend

. . .



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
And fall on the mercy
And hear yourself praying
Won't you save me
Won't you save me

This is your time
This is your dance
Live every moment
Leave nothing to chance
Swim in the sea
Drink of the deep
Embrace the mystery of all you can be
(Repeat)
This is your time

. . .



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 day
But I was never meant
To walk this road alone
I can always trust you
When you say

I will carry you
Be your strength
And pull you through
Reach for me
And take my hand
We will pray
And 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 walk this road alone
we are bound together
When we say...

. . .



From the first breath of her life
She flew straight into my arms
I used to catch her from the swing
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...

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 am 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

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

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

. . .



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

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

. . .



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 living out a game of solitaire
Going up to a better day
I will be around

Hey world, it's me
I still have the heart, still have the dream

Come on, people
We've got to come together
It's you and me
Hope will make us stronger
Freedom it rings
Do you hear it calling?
Reach out and touch
And love will take us higher

Somebody threw a brick in my vision
Tried to sabotage my mission
Either way, I believe
I will be around
I wanna know, people, are you with me?
Open up your heart, and just believe
Take a step, let me hear you say
I will be around

Hey world, it's me
I still have the heart, still have the dream

Come on, people
We've got to come together
It's you and me
Hope will make us stronger
Freedom it rings
Do you hear it calling?
Reach out and touch
And love will take us higher

For He knows the plans He has for you
A plan to prosper and not harm you
To give you a future and a hope

Come on, people
We've got to come together
It's you and me
Hope will make us stronger
Freedom it rings
Do you hear it calling?
Reach out and touch
And love will take us higher

. . .



1st Verse:
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

2nd Verse:
Each time I look in your eyes
So glad you came into my life
Much more than an emotional high
Oh, this is love
I know that I've made up my mind
I'll stay for the rest of my life

Chorus

. . .



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

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

Little Anna, little star
That is what you really are
Cross my heart and hope to die
You're the apple of my eye

. . .



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?

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!

...Singin' "Ollie, Ollie, everybody free!"

. . .

Won't you save me

This is your time
