Amazing Grace by Carrie Underwood


Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see

'Twas grace that taught my heart to fear
And grace, my fears relieved
How precious did that grace appear
The hour I first believed

When we've been there ten thousand years
Bright shining as the sun
We've no less days to sing God's praise
Than when we first begun

Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
That saved a wretch like me
I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see

I once was lost, but now I'm found
Was blind, but now I see

the Thunder Rolls by All That Remains



Three thirty in the morning
Not a soul in sight
The city's looking like a ghost town
On a moonless summer night
Raindrops on the windshield
There's a storm moving in
He's heading back from somewhere
That he never should have been

And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls

Every light is burning
In a house across town
She's pacing by the telephone
In her faded flannel gown
Asking for miracle
Hoping she's not right
Praying it's the weather
That's kept him out all night

And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls

The thunder rolls
And the lightning strikes
Another love grows cold
On a sleepless night
As the storm blows on
Out of control
Deep in her heart
The thunder rolls

She's waiting by the window
When he pulls into the drive
She rushes out to hold him
Thankful he's alive
But on the wind and rain
A strange new perfume blows
And the lightning flashes in her eyes
And he knows that she knows

And the thunder rolls
And the thunder rolls

The thunder rolls
And the lightning strikes
Another love grows cold
On a sleepless night
As the storm blows on
Out of control
Deep in her heart
The thunder rolls

She runs back down the hallway
To the bedroom door
She reaches for the pistol
Kept in the dresser drawer
Tells the lady in the mirror
He won't do this again
Because tonight will be the last time
She'll wonder where he's been

I Saw the Light by Todd Rundgren


It was late last night
I was feeling something wasn't right
There was not another soul in sight
Only you, only you

So we walked along
Though I knew that there was something wrong
And a feeling hit me, oh so strong
About you

Then you gazed up at me
And the answer was plain to see
'Cause I saw the light
In your eyes, in your eyes

Though we had our fling
I just never would suspect a thing
Till that little bell began to ring
In my head, in my head

But I tried to run
Though I knew it wouldn't help me none
'Cause I couldn't ever love no one
Or so I said

'Cause my feelings for you
Were just something I never knew
Till I saw the light
In your eyes, in your eyes

But I love you best
It's not something that I say in jest
'Cause you're different, girl, from all the rest
In my eyes

And I ran out before
But I won't do it anymore
Can't you see the light in my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes
In my eyes

Heart to Stone by Stellar Revival



I always knew that I'd end up being the bad guy
If I broke down your walls and I made you feel safe
Fairytale inspiration
Choking on your expectations
I see you falling apart and it's hard to feel the same

And I'm sorry I can't pick up all the pieces
I'm sorry you feel burned and I'm so cold
I told you from the start that I'd be leaving
And I warned you that I'd turn your heart to stone

I always hate that I end up being the bad guy
When you swore up and down that we're on the same page
All those strings, did I miss something?
All those strings attached to nothing
I see you crumbling down, but you know I can't stay

And I'm sorry I can't pick up all the pieces
I'm sorry you feel burned and I'm so cold

I told you from the start that I'd be leaving
And I warned you that I'd turn your heart to stone

Don't ever think that you're not good enough
It always falls on me
And when I'm gone, I know you'll carry on
You're stronger than you think
Didn't want to break you
But I guess I had to
I couldn't let this get too deep

I'm sorry I can't pick up all the pieces
I'm sorry you feel burned and I'm so cold
I told you from the start that I'd be leaving
And I warned you that I'd turn your heart to stone
Heart to stone

I told you from the start that I'd be leaving
And I warned you that I'd turn your heart to stone
Turn your heart to stone

Kashmir by Led Zeppelin



Oh, let the sun beat down upon my face
With stars to fill my dreams
I am a traveler of both time and space
To be where I have been
Sit with elders of the gentle race
This world has seldom seen
Talk of days for which they sit and wait
All will be revealed

Talk and song from tongues of lilting grace
Whose sounds caress my ear
But not a word I heard could I relate
The story was quite clear
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Ooh, baby, I been flying
No yeah, mama, there ain't no denying
Oh, ooh, yeah I've been flying
Mama, mama, ain't no denying, no denying

Oh, all I see turns to brown
As the sun burns the ground
And my eyes fill with sand
As I scan this wasted land
Trying to find, trying to find, where I've been

Oh, pilot of the storm who leaves no trace
Like thoughts inside a dream
Here is the path that led me to that place
Yellow desert stream
My Shangri-La beneath the summer moon
I will return again
Sure as the dust that floats high in June
When moving through Kashmir

Oh, father of the four winds, fill my sails
Across the sea of years
With no provision but an open face
Along the straits of fear
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

Ooh

Oh, when I'm on, when I'm on my way, yeah
When I see, when I see the way, you stay-yeah
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, when I'm down
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, but I'm down, so down
Ooh, my baby, ooh, my baby, let me take you there
Oh come on, oh, let me take you there... let me take you there
Ooh, yeah-yeah, ooh, yeah-yeah, let me take you there... let me take you there

Jenny Says by Cowboy Mouth



Jenny, darling, you're my best friend
But there's a few things that you don't know of
Why I borrow your lipstick so often
I'm using your shirt as a pillow case

I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I don't know how to say this
'Cause you're really my dearest friend

Jenny, darling, you're my best friend
I've been doing bad things that you don't know about
Stealing your stuff now and then
Nothing you'd miss, but it means the world to me

I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I don't know how to say this
'Cause you're really my dearest friend

I wanna ruin our friendship
I don't know how to say this
'Cause you're really my dearest friend

Jenny, take my hand
'Cause we are more than friends
I will follow you until the end

Jenny, take my hand
I cannot pretend
Why I never like your new boyfriends

Oh, your love for them won't last long
(Forget those amigos)
Oh, your love for them won't last long
(Forget those amigos)

Forget those amigos

I wanna ruin our friendship
We should be lovers instead
I don't know how to say this
'Cause you're really my dearest friend

Oh, your love for them won't last long
(We should be lovers instead)
Oh, your love for them won't last long
('Cause you're really my dearest friend)

Jenny...

Oh, love like that won't last
(We should be lovers instead)

Jenny...

'Cause you're really my dearest friend

Jenny...

Born This Way by Thousand Foot Krutch



Because I was born this way,
I got lightning running through my veins,
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train,
So hop on board, or get out the way
'Cause I was born this way,
I got lightning running through my veins,
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train,
You can't stop us, we can't be stopped

Ever since I was an infant, I spit it,
Ate mics, and rocked Lennon,
In first grade, I drank my juice with rocks in it
Never looked down, 'cause up, had more stains in it
Always been about the heart, never cared who's winning'

Ha!… I chase the light, like emcees on the wrong mic
My blood was the wrong type, so I had to give my life
And relearn, the minute that I felt real life
I'd rather create, than follow, welcome to the knife

Because I was born this way
I got lightning running through my veins
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
So hop on board, or get out the way
'Cause I was born this way
I got lightning running through my veins
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
You can't stop us, we can't be stopped

Feel that smoke rise, to the sky
Split, like a dollar sign
Flip, when ya hear that beat, rip like it's dynamite
Cold, like a winter street, loud, 'cause I wanna be,
The mic is my weapon, so I spit this artillery

Ha!… I chase the light, like emcees on the wrong mic,
My blood was the wrong type, so I had to give my life
And relearn, the minute that I felt real life,
I'd rather create, than follow, welcome to the knife

Because I was born this way
I got lightning running through my veins
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
So hop on board, or get out the way
'Cause I was born this way
I got lightning running through my veins
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
You can't stop us, we can't be stopped

Let's go,
Hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
Hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
Put 'em up,
Hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
Hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
Hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
Hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
Put them hands up in the sky, hands up you can learn to fly
So hop on board or get out the way

Because I was born this way
I got lightning running through my veins
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
So hop on board or get out the way
'Cause I was born this way
I got lightning running through my veins
Ain't nobody gonna stop this train
You can't stop us we can't be stopped

All In by Lifehouse



All night staring at the ceiling
counting for minutes I've been feeling this way
So far away and so alone

But you know it's alright
I came to my senses
Letting go of my defenses
There's no way I'm giving up this time
Yeah, you know I'm right here
I'm not losing you this time

And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I've fallen harder than a landslide
I spent a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life

There's no taking back
what we've got's too strong,
we've had each other's back for too long
There's no breaking up this time
And you know it's okay, I came to my senses
Letting go of my defenses
There's no way I'm giving up this time

And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I've fallen harder than a landslide
I spent a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life

I want it, I want it, I want it
I want it, I want it, I want it, yeah
I want it, I want it, I want it, yeah

And I'm all in, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in, I'm all in for life
And I'm all in, nothing left to hide
I've fallen harder than a landslide
I spent a week away from you last night
And now I'm calling, calling out your name
Even if I lose the game, I'm all in
I'm all in tonight, yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life
Yeah I'm all in, I'm all in for life

Back in Black by AC/DC



Back in black I hit the sack
I've been too long I'm glad to be back
Yes I am
Let loose from the noose
That's kept me hanging about
I kept looking at the sky cause it's gettin' me high
Forget the hearse cause I'll never die

Abusin' every one of them and runnin' wild
Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back back
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black
Back in the back of a Cadillac
Number one with a bullet I'm a power pack
Yes I am
In a bang with the gang
They've got to catch me if they want me to hang
Cause I'm back on the track and I'm beatin' the flack
Nobody's gonna get me on another rap
So look at me now I'm just makin' my play
Don't try to push your luck just get out of my way
Cause I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back
Yes I'm back
Well I'm back back
Well I'm back in black
Yes I'm back in black

No More Words by Berlin



You're talking, it all sounds fair
You promise your love, how much you care
I'm still listening and still unsure
Your actions are lacking, nothing is clear

[CHORUS]
No more words
You're telling me you love me while you're looking away
No more words
No more words and no more promises of love

Remember when the words were new
They carried a meaning, a feeling so true
Well, I'm looking for a long romance
Not a picture of passion or one time chance

[CHORUS]

But don't fool yourself
Your empty passion won't satisfy me, I know
So don't pretend that you want me
You don't want me, no

[CHORUS]

We make love, and it's all the same
Your eyes show nothing, no lover's flame
Well, don't promise we can work it out
You can leave right now if you're feeling doubt

[CHORUS]

No more words
You're telling me you love me and looking away
No more words and no more promises
No more words and no more promises

[CHORUS]

No more words and no more promises
No more words and no more promises of love
No more words and no more promises of love
No more words and no more promises of love

Maggie May by Rod Stewart



Wake up Maggie I think I got something to say to you
It's late September and I really should be back at school
I know I keep you amused but I feel I'm being used
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
You lured me away from home just to save you from being alone
You stole my heart and that's what really hurt

The morning sun when it's in your face really shows your age
But that don't worry me none in my eyes you're everything
I laughed at all of your jokes my love you didn't need to coax
Oh, Maggie I couldn't have tried any more
You lured me away from home, just to save you from being alone
You stole my soul and that's a pain I can do without

All I needed was a friend to lend a guiding hand
But you turned into a lover and
mother what a lover, you wore me out
All you did was wreck my bed
and in the morning kick me in the head
Oh Maggie I couldn't have tried anymore
You lured me away from home 'cause you didn't want to be alone
You stole my heart I couldn't leave you if I tried

I suppose I could collect my books and get on back to school
Or steal my daddy's cue and make a living out of playing pool
Or find myself a rock and roll band that needs a helpin' hand
Oh Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
You made a first-class fool out of me
But I'm as blind as a fool can be
You stole my heart but I love you anyway

Maggie I wish I'd never seen your face
I'll get on back home one of these days

El Shaddai by Amy Grant


[Chorus:]
El-Shaddai, El-Shaddai [means "God Almighty, God Almighty"]
El-Elyon na Adonai [means "God in the highest, Oh, Lord"]
Age to age, You're still the same
By the power of the name
El-Shaddai, El-Shaddai
Erkamka na Adonai [means "We will love You, Oh, Lord"]
We will praise and lift You high
El-Shaddai

Through Your love
And through the ram
You saved the son
Of Abraham
Through the power
Of Your hand
Turned the sea
Into dry land
To the outcast
On her knees
You were the God
Who really sees
And by Your might
You set Your children free

[Chorus]

Through the years
You made it clear
That the time of Christ
Was near
Though the people
Couldn't see
What Messiah ought to be
Though Your Word
Contained the plan
They just could not understand
Your most awesome work was done
Through the frailty of Your son

[Chorus]

Just What I Needed by the Cars



I don't mind you coming here
And wasting all my time
Cause when you're standing oh so near
I kinda lose my mind
It's not the perfume that you wear
It's not the ribbons in your hair
And I don't mind you coming here
And wasting all my time

I don't mind you hanging out
And talking in your sleep
It doesn't matter where you've been
As long as it was deep, Yeah
You always knew to wear it well
And, You look so fancy I can tell
And I don't mind you hanging out
And talking in your sleep

I guess you're just what I needed
(Just what I needed)
I needed someone to feed
I guess you're just what I needed
(Just what I needed)
I needed someone to bleed

I don't mind you coming here
And wasting all my time, time
Cause when you're standing oh so near
I kinda lose my mind, Yeah

It's not the ribbons in your hair
I don't mind you coming here
And wasting all my time

I guess you're just what I needed

Signs by Tesla



And the sign says "Long-haired freaky people need not apply"
So I put my hair up under my hat and I went in to ask him why
He said you look like a fine outstanding young man, I think you'll do
So I took off my hat, I said "Imagine that, huh, me working for you"

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

And the sign says "Anybody caught trespassing will be shot on sight"
So I jumped the fence and I yelled at the house
Hey! What gives you the right!
To put up a fence and keep me out, or to keep Mother Nature in
If God was here, he'd tell it to your face, man, you're some kind of sinner

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Oh, say now mister, can't you read
You got to have a shirt and tie to get a seat
You can't watch, no you can't eat, you ain't supposed to be here

And the sign says "You got to have a membership card to get inside" - uh!

[Solo]

And the sign says "Everybody welcome, come in, kneel down and pray"
But then they passed around a plate at the end of it all
And I didn't have a penny to pay
So I got me a pen and a paper and I made up my own fuckin' sign
I said, "Thank you Lord for thinking 'bout me, I'm alive and doing fine", oh

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Signs, signs, everywhere there's signs
Blockin' out the scenery, breakin' my mind
Do this, don't do that, can't you read the sign

Yes! Some old song, called "Signs Signs", I wish we did write that one, but
We didn't - wow!

Alright

We Are Warriors by ETW



This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is

Our world is changing, things are rearranging
The fires of war and peace are now flaming
Revelation Generation, can you hear the sound?
The trumpet's blowing, and it's blowing loud

Tolling time as the pages turn
To he who has an ear, let him hear and discern
Between the oil and the wine
Read the signs, it's harvest time

It's about to get dark, but don't sweat it
The Word of God is light, so don't neglect it
Hear with your spirit, see with your spiritual eyes
That's the only way you're gonna read the signs

People, the clock is ticking
Put some oil in your lamps with quickness
As it was written, so it is
Revelation Generation, this is what time it is

This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is

This is the time, take a good look around you
What you see is guaranteed to astound you
Wars, and rumors of wars
American soldiers on foreign shores

Glasnost, Russian freedom, peace mania
But can we trust it? Ask Lithuania
Germany unified, Margaret Thatcher gone
The European Common Market is now strong

Multinational military forces
Come on people, you know what the course is
One-world government, New World market
It's prophesied in the Word, so we dropped it

Horses ride as the pages turn
Stars fall, and a nation burns
Poisoned waters, Ishmael cheers
Revelation Generation, this is what time it is

This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is

Cover your homes with the blood of the Lamb
The days of the Passover are here again
We pray for peace and wave the big gun
Even friends are saying peace when there really is none

Read the signs, the Lord is moving
Around the world, and He's proving
His Word is true, page after page
Like the playwright who walked up onstage

And the actors read the script
Revelation G, we know you feel it
Moving, from nation to nation
The need for Christ and you're the generation

Chosen to renew the standard
To carry the ark and the blood-stained banner
The time has come and the signs are clear
Revelation Generation, you know what time it is

This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is

This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is
This is what time it is

Slither by Velvet Revolver


Hey Hey Hey

When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope, fell to my knees
Born and broken every single time

Always keep me under finger
That's the spot where you run to me
Might see some type of pleasure in my mind

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see

Hey hey hey

When you seek me you destroy me
Rape my mind and smell the poppies
Born and bloodied every single time

Always keep me under finger
That's the spot where you might linger
But I see some type of pleasure in my mind

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry
This time with me

[guitar solo]

When you look you see right through me
Cut the rope, fell to my knees
Born and Bloodied
Every single time

Yeah, here comes the water
It comes to wash away the sins of you and I
This time you see
Like holy water
It only burns you faster than you'll ever dry
This time with me

Hey, hey, hey

I Wanna Be A Cowboy by Boys Don't Cry



Riding on the range
I've got my hat - on
I've got my boots - dusty

I've got my saddle
On my horse
He's called....T-t-t-t-t-trigger
Of course

I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy

(woman's voice)
Riding on the chuck wagon
Following my man
His name is Ted
Can you believe that?
(Male choir) Ted! Oh, Ted! Fighting off danger!
Camping on the prairie
Plays havoc with my hair
Makes me feel quite dirty
Though we all do sometimes
(Male choir) Ted gets so dirty!

I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy

Looking like a hero
Six-gun at my side
Chewing my tobacco
Out on the horizon
I see a puff of smoke
Indians on the warpath
(Indian voice) White man speak-em with forked tongue
Or not
I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl
I wanna be a cowboy

My name is Ted
And one day I'll be dead yo yo

Fire and Rain by James Taylor



Just yesterday morning, they let me know you were gone.
Suzanne, the plans they made put an end to you.
I walked out this morning and I wrote down this song,
I just can't remember who to send it to.
I've seen fire and I've seen rain. I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end.
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, but I always thought that I'd see you again.

Won't you look down upon me, Jesus, You've got to help me make a stand.
You've just got to see me through another day.
My body's aching and my time is at hand and I won't make it any other way.
Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain. I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end.
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend, but I always thought that I'd see you again.

Been walking my mind to an easy time, my back turned towards the sun.
Lord knows when the cold wind blows it'll turn your head around.
Well, there's hours of time on the telephone line to talk about things to come.
Sweet dreams and flying machines in pieces on the ground.

Oh, I've seen fire and I've seen rain. I've seen sunny days that I thought would never end.
I've seen lonely times when I could not find a friend,
but I always thought that I'd see you baby, one more time again, now.

Thought I'd see you one more time again.
There's just a few things coming my way this time around, now.
Thought I'd see you, thought I'd see you, fire and rain, now.

Asking For It by Shinedown


Can I have a moment of your time?
Just a single second so you see
That, indeed, we'll be leaving you behind
Far across that line
Turn it up so you can hear the bells
Crashing through the clouds
Acid rain down the drain
We know all too well
It's a living hell

Careful what you say and who you say it, who you say it to
Careful what you say and who you say it to
Maybe you talk too much
And you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
You can blame bad luck
But you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
When all is said and done
You need to tie your tongue
Cause when you spit on everyone
You are, you are you know you're asking for it, asking for it, asking

Caught up in the gutter once again
Thrashing through the mud
Flowin' lies, cuttin' ties
Til the sidewalk ends
And the truth begins
Power through the point of no return
Famously deranged
All the same hope you change
If the worm is gonna turn
It's none of my concern

Careful what you say and who you say it, who you say it to
Careful what you say and who you say it to
Maybe you talk too much
And you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
You can blame bad luck
But you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
When all is said and done
You need to tie your tongue
Cause when you spit on everyone
You are, you are you know you're asking for it, asking for it, asking

You are, you are, you are, you are
You are asking for it
You are, you are, you are, you are
You are asking for it

Careful what you say and who you say it, who you say it to
Careful what you say and who you say it to
Maybe you talk too much
And you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
You can blame bad luck
But you were asking for it, asking for it, asking
When all is said and done
You need to tie your tongue
Cause when you spit on everyone
You are, you are you know you're asking for it, asking for it, asking

You know you're asking for it, asking for it
You know you're asking for it, asking

Love You Like That by Canaan Smith



Hey, girl, I'm just a small town run around
I get my kicks out on the outskirts of town
I could never do it like a pretty city boy
I'm more a fishin' in the dark nitty gritty boy
So lay back and let me paint you a picture
The way I wanna kiss you is...

[Chorus:]
Slow as the Mississippi
Strong as a fifth of whiskey
Steady as a Tom Petty track
I wanna love, wanna love you like that
Deeper than a sunset sky
Sweeter than muscadine wine
All night 'til the sun comes back
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that

When I'm with you I can see down the road, girl
Not just the gravel when we're travelin' on, girl
And I'm bettin' that it's gonna be a wild ride
But I promise that I'm gonna be there by your side
I think we got another memory in the makin'
So, baby, let's take it, take it...

[Chorus]

I ain't gonna do it like a pretty city boy
I'm a fishin' in the dark nitty gritty boy
So let me love you...

[Chorus]

Baby, I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that

Yeah
I could never do it like a pretty city boy
I'm a fishin' in the dark nitty gritty boy

When I'm Gone by 3 Doors Down


There's another world inside of me
That you may never see
There are secrets in this life
That I can't hide

Somewhere in this darkness
There's a light that I can't find
Maybe it's too far away
Or maybe I'm just blind

Or maybe I'm just blind

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be

I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone

When your education X-Ray
Cannot see under my skin
I won't tell you a damn thing
That I could not tell my friends
Roaming through this darkness
I'm alive but I'm alone
Part of me is fighting this
But part of me is gone

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be

I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Or maybe I'm just blind

So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
Hold me when I'm scared
And love me when I'm gone
Everything I am
And everything in me
Wants to be the one
You wanted me to be

I'll never let you down
Even if I could
I'd give up everything
If only for your good
So hold me when I'm here
Right me when I'm wrong
You can hold me when I'm scared
You won't always be there
So love me when I'm gone

Love me when I'm gone
Love me when I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone
When I'm gone

Just the Way by Parmalee



I love you just the way God made you
Girl, he don't make mistakes
What you call your imperfections
I call beautiful, babe
(Tell 'em, Blanc)

The way your hair's in a mess in the morning when you open your eyes
The way an hour goes by when you say that you'll be ready in five, yeah, uh
The little dimple on the side of your smile when you're laughing
At a movie that you've seen about a thousand times
You know, girl, that I can't lie

I love you just the way God made you
Girl, he don't make mistakes
What you call your imperfections
I call beautiful, babe
So let my eyes be your mirror
And you're bound to see it too
'Cause I was made for loving
Just the way God made you

(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you
(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you, yeah

The flush in your cheeks when you're mad but you say that you're not (yeah)
And the shape of the face that you make when you're taking a shot (taking a shot)
The little white lie that you told the security guard
At the hotel pool when we got caught
Yeah, I was thinking, girl, you never looked so hot (you never looked so hot)

And that I love you just the way God made you
Girl, he don't make mistakes
What you call your imperfections
I call beautiful, babe
So let my eyes be your mirror
And you're bound to see it too
'Cause I was made for loving
Just the way God made you

(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you
(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you, uh

Girl, I ain't ever gon' try to change ya (come on)
My masterpiece, my Mona Lisa, and I need ya
To stay just the way God made ya
(Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you)
Just the way God made you
(Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you)

I love you just the way God made you
Girl, he don't make mistakes
What you call your imperfections
I call beautiful, babe
So let my eyes be your mirror
And you're bound to see it too
'Cause I was made for loving
Just the way God made you

(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you
(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you
(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you
(God made you)
Just the way, just the way
Just the way, just the way
God made you

Hand of Providence by Michael W. Smith



Providence, Providence
See it laying down the cornerstone
The Hand of Providence, it's evident
For we could never make it on our own
Apportioning the power
Weighing all that it entails
Giving us the fulcrum
And a balance to the scales

[Chorus]
Oh, the Hand of Providence
Is guiding us through choices that we make
Oh, the Hand of Providence
Is reaching out to help us on our way

Providence, ever since
Any thesis ever entered man
The Hand of Providence
Has been our best defense
Tho' his ways are sometimes hard to understand
From the dying of a hearbeat
To another soul reborn
From in between and circling
Our thoughts of love and war

[Chorus]
