Waiting

Verse 1

I see You waiting

Waiting on me still

Waiting on me still

But wait, but wait…

I’m not compliant

I’m not compliant to Your Will

I’d rather die than have to kill

My hate, my hate

Of being out of control! 

Chorus 1

I wanna believe that

It’s all about me and

Finding out what I think I need

Verse 2

I said I'd follow

I said I'd follow to no end

And on Your grace I would depend...

Always, always

But when it comes to pressure,

I've always wound up givin in

[I] forget about You to please them

I caved and I cave
And now I'm out of control!

Chorus 2

I wanna believe that

There's still hope for me and

God I can do something of use!
I wanna believe that
It’s not about me and
God it’s cuz You wait patiently

(Please break through to me!)

Bridge

When will I stop all this?

I’ll come around soon!

I keep on promising it to You!

End Chorus

I now can see that

It’s not about me and

I am not my own!

I wanna believe that
It’s not about me and
God it’s cuz You wait so patiently

Hello Jesus

Verse 1

Hello Jesus

Here I am, just a sinner

And I’ve been thinking about

This cold, bitter winter

That has been

In my heart, in my soul, in my mind

I’ve been thinking all the time

Thinking all the time

Pre Chorus 1

Well how’d I get here (?)

In this corner that built;

Chained in these shackles

That I forged from guilt

Chorus

Well it’s good to know

That I’m alone

On the matter, the matter of being alone

And it’s nice to find

You here by my side

Even when my flesh ain’t listening

Verse 2

Hello Father, here I am Your prodigal son

And I’ve been thinking about all of the things I’ve done

Against Your name

Still somehow You remain, saying you love me

Yet I’m feeling so ashamed, so ashamed

But why do I feel ashamed?

Pre Chorus

Oh how’d I get here (?)

In Your love and grace

Wrapped in Your mercy

Saved from my old ways

Chorus

And it’s good to know

That I’m alone

On the matter, the matter of being alone

And it’s nice to find

You here by my side

Even when my flesh ain’t listening

Agapé Love

Verse 1

That girl with ‘Agapé’ on her right wrist

Got me in a bind and she don’t know it

And if she does, that’s quite a shame

Though it’s a crush, it’s not a game

When I say, when I say

Pre-Chorus

I’m searching for Agapé

And it is found in Christ

His love’s more than sufficient

And at the same time

She’s hidden in Him now

And what’d I say I’m searchin out?

Chorus

Agapé love (4x)

Verse 2

Seeking Him more as I go on, day by day

It’s my purpose, pleasure, life in every way

Oh I wish I could use this reasoning:

If her heart’s His and I know the King

Then we may be much closer than I thought

Pre-Chorus

I’m searching for Agapé

Thank God it’s found in Christ

His love’s more than sufficient

And at the same time

She’s hidden in Him now

And what’d I say I’m searchin out?

Chorus

Agapé love (4x)

Bridge

I want that love, I need that love

I’m seekin’ out that love

I want that love, I need that love

Seekin’ out that love!

And it’s only found in Christ

Oh and you’re there

At the very same time

Chorus

Agapé love (4x)

Come on now, sing it with me!

Agapé love (2x)

Letting You Go

Verse 1

Wishin’ I’d said all the words in my head to you now

Now I’m mulling o’er ‘what ifs’ and dwelling too long

On my hopes of the sound of music to your ears

From my earnest heart, to you endeared

Chorus

Oh, letting you go shouldn’t be so hard

Since I never held you

And now I must seem, I must seem like a draft

Something to revise or just a wind blowing by

Oh but letting me go, I wish it weren’t so easy for you

Verse 2

All of my hopes and my fears intertwine as you turn, they are tied up

Into a knot in the pit of my stomach, I choke and I find

That if confidence is king­- then you’ve overthrown its reign in me

Chorus

Oh but letting you go shouldn’t be so hard

Since I never held you

And now I must seem, I must seem like a draft

Something to revise or just a wind blowing by

Oh but letting me go, I wish it weren’t so easy for you

Bridge

I’ve only myself to blame

For giving my heart away

To someone I don’t know

I guess I’m a fool

For being a fool for you

End Chorus

Oh, letting you go shouldn’t be this hard

Since I barely know you

And now I just seem, I seem like a draft

Something to revise; Am I a wind blowing by?

Oh letting me go, I wish it weren’t so easy for you

Fault Line

Intro Chorus

Meet me on the fault line, darling

Meet me back on the fault line

I know this is where

It all went downhill

Oh and it’s where

We’ll part ways still

Verse 1

Yeah, I’ll tell you the truth

About the lies that I’ve told to you

My pride it blinds me like a light

So what’s there to shed

Other than our tearful cries?

Chorus

Meet me on the fault line, darling

Meet me back on the fault line

I know this is where

It all went downhill

Oh and it’s where

We’ll part ways still

Verse 2

Breaking ground

But ground’s breakin’ fast

Much faster than we can last

So can we move on elsewhere?

Or do we only move on

Cuz we fall down again?

Chorus

Meet me on the fault line, darling

Meet me back on the fault line

I know this is where

It all went downhill

Oh and it’s where

We’ll part ways still

Bridge

Oh we need a reallocation

Of our words in this situation

They’ve pulled us away

Like tectonic plates and

I need you, too!

I need you to…

Chorus

Meet me on the fault line, darling

Meet me back on the fault line

I know this is where

It all went downhill

Oh and it’s where

We’ll part ways still

End Chorus

Meet me on the fault line, darling

Meet me back on the fault line

I know this is where

It’s all gone downhill

Oh but let’s not part ways here still

Porch Lights (Make No Mistake)

Intro

In your eyes fire resides

Burning me on the inside

Virulent, it gets under my skin

And I don’t know why

I can’t get you

Out of the confines of my mind

In the dimmest corners you reside

Verse 1

There’s a porch light

Way off in the distance,

And I realize

Darkness is our condition.

Can you take me there (?)

Where I can finally see

All the people behind facades,

Drinking themselves to sleep

Chorus 1

And I say, “Make no mistake,

I have been there.

Make no mistake,

It’ll end your life.

I know I just wanna save you

But you’ve got to make the choice to survive

Verse 2

Now arriving,

I see myself again.

But it’s different,

My perspective, it starts to change.

This kind beacon and

It’s ‘illuminated’

Start a’changing and I’m wondering

Where’s the right porch to stay?

Chorus 2

And I say, “Make no mistake,

It will kill you.

Make no mistake,

It’ll end your life.

Through deceit, confusion, false religion,

There is still time to see the bright light.”

Chorus 1

And I say, “Make no mistake,

It will kill you.

Make no mistake,

It’ll end your life.

I know I just wanna save you,

But you’ve got to make the choice to survive

Try to Picture Perfect

Verse 1

Door closed, oh it never felt so good

Lies, sin and failures- they all sound like you

What is this emotion but a house built on sand

There goes the backburner again

It’s boiling over, it’s boiling over

Whoa, watch it overflow

Chorus

And I can’t be sure

So I’ll keep on this road

Cuz everything looks just like you

Just like you, boy

Verse 2

Cut frames; leave the carvings on the floor

Try to picture perfect but you can’t anymore

So who are these figures, traipsing around?

Will they find purpose or will they just drown

In a sea of our confusion

Whoa, I hope it ain’t so

Chorus

And I can’t be sure

So I’ll keep on this road

Cuz everything looks just like you

Just like you, boy

End Chorus

And I want to be sure

So I’ll keep on this road

Cuz everything else looks just like me

Just like me, just like me (the boy)

Just like me, it looks like me, just like me

But I wanna look like You, just like You

Just like You (God)!
