Pray 04:56
Eyes closed hands clasped I take myself away The outside stays outside with the chaos and dismay Ears home in on my heart beating While the world fades into grey It’s time – this time Mind shifts to another place beyond sitting on the fence Whispers in the subconscious starting to make sense No man can come with me only God can make the difference And it’s time – yes it’s time Pray Say all that I really feel Listening to the One that’s real Don’t leave such a place until I touch the sky – I reach the Geat I Am Pray Leave nothing that shatters sin Take all with me that cleans within Help me to speak and make life begin So as you pass me by you can touch the sky Don’t you just want to pray too? Step out of the darkness of my room into His light Here I fear no evil or defeat from any fight Straight away the Son shines strong to dissipate the night It’s time – what a time I’m not aware of anything in the space surrounding me Caught up in the Spirit and lost in visions of eternity Petitioning for the poor lost soul is all that I can see For it’s time – please God let it be this time Pray Say all that I really feel Listening to the One that’s real Don’t leave such a place until I touch the sky – I reach the Geat I Am Pray Leave nothing that shatters sin Take all with me that cleans within Help me to speak and make life begin So as you pass me by you can touch the sky Don’t you just want to pray too God? Close your eyes and clasp your hands and take yourself away

Oh mother Eve mother Eve, why did you eat from that tree See what you’ve done to me, now I’m cursed now I’m cursed And it’s darkened all my days, in my addicted ways Now my God I can’t see and it’s just getting worse You’ve got to be kidding me This life is killing me And if I’m not dying to meet You Lord Then what am I dying for? This world’s been gripping me This life’s been tripping me And if I’m not dying to meet You Lord Then what am I dying for? I’m dying to meet You Lord I’m dying to meet You Jesus I’m dying to meet You Father God Oh hear me God of grace, I am down on my face See what the world’s done to me and now I‘m cursed now I’m cursed And there’s darkness in my days, You see my sinful ways Now it is You I can’t see and it’s just getting worse Well I used to blind, see, but all of that’s behind me Now the place you will find me, is close to Christ close to Jesus And I’m living in the Kingdom, the Lord with Him has made me one And now I’m walking in freedom, I see with spiritual eyes that…. I am dying to hear You I am dying to see You I am dying to hold You , and have You hold me near I am dying just to sing out I am dying to dance forever And Jesus I am dying to get out of here It kills me when I just won’t die It scares me when I just won’t fear You It hurts me when I never feel Your pain

New Day 05:10
Forget about the past it’s just not worth it One thing that I’m doing is looking ahead I know I’m not perfect I got no excuses Though part of me is living part of me is dead Forgive me for being a fool to ignore You I know it must hurt in the things that I say Though I can’t forget it I don’t want to let it Ruin our love for each other I pray it’s a new day (a new day) it’s a new day You know I’m fed up with losing against little foxes In the little battles because little is gained Then one day I wake up the distance between us Has become a chasm and the soul so stained I’m fed up with falling and stopping and stalling It’s time to stand up and be counted with Him The enemy’s under my feet so I’ll plunder Lost souls from the gates of hell living in sin it’s a new day (a new day) it’s a new day The years I have lost feeling sorry for myself Living under a cloud and just licking my wounds Return to me the joy of Your salvation Spreading my wings to fly from my cocoon I wanna know in my heart that God is for me Cheering me on through each battle each day So give me the strength Lord to come through the fire That I may lead others to glory I pray it’s a new day (a new day) it’s a new day

Believe 07:14
All around I see – self-indulgency Mankind lusts and covets crying - me, me, me Yet the One I trust - offered up His all To redeem mankind to life – Instead of staying in the curse of the fall Who do we believe if it isn’t God? Who do we believe? All there is for man - under worldly rule Is to be king of his castle - even among fools But there beyond the pale - where holy angels sing Is a Risen Saviour we know He’s the one true God the King of kings Who do we believe if it isn’t God? Who do we believe? We can see a way - that we know is true Where all of mankind - has been invited to There the blind will see - there the lame will run Death and disease will cease to exist - Our victory is in Christ, God’s Son Who do we believe if it isn’t God? Who do we believe?
