Help is closer than you think Help is knocking at your door With water for the thirsty sojourner And healing for the bruised reed Chorus: His arm is not too short to reach where you are His arm is not too short No, His arm is not too short to reach where you are His arm is not too short to reach you Help is closer than you think Help is knocking at your door Calling to you in the circumstances Reaching to you in your weakness Bridge: Let all the walls fall down Give up relying on your own strength Open your arms and receive the embrace of God Let all the walls fall down Give up relying on your own strength Open your arms and receive the embrace of God Right there where you are The embrace of God Right there where you are

Surely Nothing
We’ve tasted joy And we’ve tasted pain And through it all Your love remained Surely nothing can separate us from Your love Feelings have soared Then crashed to flame Yet through it all You stayed the same Surely nothing can separate us from Your love Father of lights Heaven in hand You hold my life It’s one grain of sand And yet You see And yet You hear Each whispered prayer Each falling tear Surely nothing can separate us from Your love

Don’t you worry Morning is coming And a new day Blooms on the horizon Blooms on the horizon And weeping may go on for a night But joy comes in the morning Joy comes in the morning Bridge: The tears you weep They fall like rain The tears you weep They’re not in vain For in the deepest part of you A seed of hope begins to bloom Bloom And weeping may go on for a night But joy comes in the morning Joy comes in the morning

- Out of the Rain
Out of the Rain
Out of the rain / into the sun Another turn in this journey we’re on Out of the fog / into the clear Sun on my skin and Your voice in my ear Faithful and true - You’re faithful and true Out of the pain / character blooms A deepened resolve to go forward with You An earnest desire / with deepening roots To go through the fire and come out looking More and more like You / Faithful and true Through the darkest nights the hardest fights You held us tight and said “Don’t give up, don’t give up, don’t give up.” In a weary land as dry as sand You held our hands and said “Don’t give up, don’t give up, don’t give up.”

Finding out You care about what’s going on inside of me And not so much what people around me might see I guess I’m learning about my Father I’m learning about my Father’s love I’m learning about my Father’s love for me Clearing out the cobwebs from my mind in corners deep And leaving wrong assumptions far behind Because I’m learning about my Father I’m learning about my Father’s love I’m learning about my Father’s love for me Bridge 1: And on this road I’m on my expectation is not perfection That ending won’t come till we’re face to face But with every step You’re coming into view I see more of You And I’m learning about my Father I’m learning about my Father’s love I’m learning about my Father’s love for me Bridge 2: Light of the world shine down on me Shine down and set me free Light of the world shine down on me As I’m learning about my Father I’m learning about my Father’s love I’m learning about my Father’s love for me I’m finally learning about my Father I’m learning about my Father’s love I’m learning about my Father’s love for me
- April Showers
April Showers
If April showers bring May flowers Maybe my tears are falling for a reason If April showers bring May flowers Maybe my tears are falling for a reason They’re watering seeds of hope … And dreams You’ve sown deep inside me And dreams You’ve sown deep inside A season’s turning / A deepened yearning A child that’s learning to rest in her Father’s arms A trust that’s growing / A heart that’s showing A peace in knowing You’re faithful as the morning sun Shining on seeds of hope … And dreams You’ve sown deep inside me And dreams You’ve sown deep inside How I long to see them grow to what You’ve made them to be How I long to see them grow to what You’ve made them to be After the winter comes the spring After the death comes new life April showers bring May flowers April showers bring May flowers April showers bring May flowers

This song was inspired by a sermon given by Pastor Roc Bottomly at Bridgeway Church, Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on November 21, 1999. Thanks Roc. When I survey the midnight sky with all its stars Who am I that You think of me? And when I see Your handiwork displayed on high What is man that You consider him? Even children sing Your praise Lord, O Lord, how majestic is Your name Even children sing Your praise Lord, O Lord, how majestic is Your name Made in Your image we are kissed with dignity You crowned our heads with glory Entrusting to our hands the earth, the sky, and sea O Living God, come reign in me Hear the children sing Your praise Lord, O Lord, how majestic is Your name Hear the children sing Your praise Lord, O Lord, how majestic is Your name Lord Your majesty fills the earth Lord Your majesty fills the earth Lord Your majesty fills the earth Lord Your majesty fills the earth

Table for Two
It’s just you and me tonight A table for two and candlelight It’s nice to hold your hand in mine and dream over coffee It’s so peaceful here tonight You and me and candlelight Put your hand in mine Lets dream over coffee Remember the days gone by When you and I felt like we could fly Together there were days that were hard when we felt like we were barely treading water Yeah, we felt like we were barely treading water And maybe we don’t know all that’s to come But we know the One we can trust in And when the journey of this life is done We will see Eternity It’s just you and me tonight A table for two and candlelight It’s nice to hold your hand in mine and dream over coffee dream over coffee dream over coffee
- Here
Here
Inspired by Habakkuk 3: 17-19 and a conversation with Diane Spencer, who has lived it. Here, even here Where there is pain Yet I will praise You Here, even through tears Even in pain Yet I will praise You For where else could I go to find the words of life to drink the living water I drink the living water in Your presence here Bridge: Though the fig tree does not blossom Though there’s no fruit on the vine Though the olive fails and the field yields no food Though the flock is cut off and the stalls are all empty Yet I will rejoice in the God of my salvation Yes I will rejoice in the God of my salvation In the God who is my strength In the God who makes me brave In the God who makes my feet walk on high places

Autumn
Leaves whisper winter comes Long days of summer sun have gone And as the memories run I see the love of One Over and over again Remember autumn breeze Past photographs captured leaves of time whisper through my mind I see a love divine over and over again Like a rose unfolding Kissed with morning dew The beauty of this life comes from You O Giver of my days O Weaver of my ways I give to You my praise Over and over again
