Healing on Planet Earth

Sunlight
Shine on us again, we've got to have it
But now the darkness
Is all I ever see, it's like a habit

But we are destined to shine again
We're destined to love again

We need healing on planet Earth
We need healing on planet Earth
A hope for tomorrow
To trade in my sorrow for You

Healing on planet Earth

Anger
Is flowing in the air just like a fountain
And hatred
Is growing everywhere just like a mountain

But I know we can heal again
If we could just see the light again

We need healing on planet Earth
We need healing on planet Earth
A hope for tomorrow
To trade in my sorrow for the truth

Healing on planet Earth

If My people who are called by My name
Will humble themselves and pray
And seek My face and turn from their wicked ways
Then I will hear from Heaven
And I will forgive their sins and restore their land

Healing on planet Earth
We need healing on planet Earth
A hope for tomorrow
To trade in my sorrow for You

Jesus
Shine on us again, we've got to have you

My Old Best Friend

Goodbye to my old friend
To the heartache and the pain
To the broken record playing
To the words I used to sing

I joined in with the band
I grabbed my instruments and played
We found new songs to sing
Seeking peace they'd never bring

And we sang it over and over and over again

Don't wait around for me
'Cause I won't be coming back
No prison cell for me
Thank you Jesus I am free

You broke the chains that bound me
And you washed away my shame
With all my sin abounding
You came along and took the blame

So I'll praise you over and over and over again

Good night my old best friend
I don't need you anymore
I don't need you anymore

When all you have is something
Then you hold onto it tight
'Cause something's more than nothing
And it gets you through the night

But now you've changed my heart
And the old things quickly dim
A friend so close to me
And a love that never ends

So I'll thank you over and over and over again

Good night my best friend
I don't need you anymore

Goodbye to my old best friend
I don't need you anymore
Goodbye
I don't need you anymore

You Are Free

Everywhere I go I feel ashamed
Cause I'm a sinner
I'm no good
I'm no good
And if you only you knew the things that I know
You'd reject me, as you should
As you should
As you should

But Jesus died for you
All the sins you've done
And will ever do
You are forgiven
Your heart and mind are filled with lies
But the biggest lie is you'll never be free
'Cause you're already free
You are free
Satan told you a lie and you believed it
But you are free
You are free
Yes you're already free

I keep trying to make a change
But I'm no different
Now I'm still the same
Yeah the same
And I can't help but wonder if God is real
Or maybe I'm the one to blame
For all my shame
For all my shame

But Jesus knows your heart
All the times you've tried
And how you've failed
But you've been mistaken
Don't fight on your own
These demons of sin
Let Jesus fight them for you
That's how you will win
There is your freedom
You are free

The Spirit of the Lord's upon me
He's anointed me to bring
Good news to the poor
And the prisoners be freed
And recovery of sight
To the blind that they might see
And to all that are oppressed
To be free

You are free

Moving In and Moving Out

She was a beauty and her beauty
Lured in all the mice
There’s some with armor, some with honor
And some plagued with lice

Moving in and moving out
Where are you going
Moving in and moving out
I'm not your little baby anymore
See me leaving out the back door
I'm not your baby

And in her tower, she had power
There was favor there
And then the spider sat beside her
Tangled up her hair

Moving in and moving out
Where are you going
Moving in and moving out
I'm not your little baby anymore
See me leaving out the back door
I'm not your baby

I'm going to tie her up in knots
And chain her to my soul
Every place I've ever been
Now she has to go

Moving in and moving out
Where are you going
Moving in and moving out
I'm not your little baby anymore
See me leaving out the back door
I'm not your baby

He acts so charming
But he's harming her
He blinds her eyes
He spins his web over her bed
And now she's paralyzed

Moving in and moving out
Where are you going
Moving in and moving out
I'm not your little baby anymore
See me leaving out the back door
I'm not your baby

Never Gonna Stop

You can try but you're never gonna stop My love
I might not be the one you're always thinking of
You can run so far away from where you've been
And you might be collapsing under weight of sin

But you're never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love for you
You're never gonna stop My love
It's true
No matter what you do
I'm always waiting here for you
It's true
I'm never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love for you

There is nothing you could do to change My heart
I love you ‘til the end, I've loved you from the start
I only want what's best for you in every way
The love I have for you will never go away

And you're never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love for you
You're never gonna stop My love
It's true
No matter what you do
I'm always waiting here for you
It's true
I'm never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love for you

There's nothing you could do
Nothing you could do
Nothing you could do
Nothing you could do
There's nothing you could say
Nothing you could say
Nothing you could say
To make me go away

I'm never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love for you
You're never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love
It's true
No matter what you do
I'm always waiting here for you
It's true
I'm never gonna stop
Never gonna stop My love for you

Can You Feel My Pain

There is no more I can feel
And my sky's are clouded grey
I long for the night to fall
'Cause I can't face it
Yes I long for the night to fall
'Cause I can't face another day

And as I look for consolation
I just drowned in the pouring rain
And here I'm standing broken
Asking you
Asking you
Yes, here I'm standing broken
Asking you
Can you feel my pain

Well can you feel my pain
Can you hear my rage
Can you see the state I'm in
Can you feel my pain
Can you hear my rage
Can you feel my pain
Can you feel my pain
Tell me

I am broken
I've fallen
I'm struggling
From the ground the dust I breathed
Desolate until I heard
A voice speaking
So desolate until I heard
A voice speaking from the tree

I have grown in the barren wasteland
Endured flames from every age
And here I stand once broken
Telling you
Telling you
Yes, here I stand once broken
Telling you I have felt your pain

And yes I feel your pain
And I can hear your rage
And I can see the state you're in
Yes I have felt your pain
I gave it all so you could gain
Yes I will take your pain
I'll make you whole again My precious love
I see you precious love

That's What He Said

I made a deal with the Devil so long ago
I signed away my heart, my mind and my soul
And everything that I ever need
Is waiting at my feet, so he said
Yeah that's what he said

I gave away what I thought was unvaluable
Things he wanted I thought were disposable
When I started to see things straight
He told me no it was much too late
And I bled
From the things that he said

And he said there's no turning back
There's no going home
Everything about you
Belongs to me, you're not your own
No, no

And so I wandered aimlessly through my life
Believing all the lies that haunted my mind
Then precious blood like a fountain came
When Jesus called me out by my name
And he said I love you
That's what He said

And he said you could always come back
I'll always take you home
There's nothing you could ever do
To change the love I have for you
It's true

Now I see the answer has always been there
To love the One who loved me first in my despair
'Cause freedom comes from the blood He shed
And life begins when you hear the things that He said
I love you
That's what He said
I love you
I love you
That's what He said
I love you too
That's what I said

Just Beyond the Clouds of Grey

Come inside, you're welcome
You know it's warm here
Cast your cares, your worries
You know it's safe here

I'll shield the fiery arrows that always come your way
And I can turn your midnight into a brighter day

Just beyond the clouds of grey
The sky is always blue
And I believe with all my heart
That miracles come true
Even for you...

You can stay protected against the acid rain
All the fear and torment
My love releases pain
There's healing in the promise
That I have made to you
I will never leave you
Nor will forsake you

And just beyond the clouds of grey
The hope is there for you
And I believe with all my heart
That miracles come true
And just beyond the clouds of grey
There's so much we can do
I believe with all my heart
That miracles come true
Even for you...

I will give you beauty
For all your ashes
And on my back it's written
With bloody lashes
A price too high to pay for
But I'll be your currency
A purchase that was made so My children can be free

And just beyond the clouds of grey
Your healing waits for you
And I believe with all my heart
That miracles come true
Even for you...

Come away
Far away
Believe me when I say
I will never leave you
Nor will I forsake you

Just beyond the clouds of grey
The hope is there for you
And I believe with all my heart
That miracles come true
And just beyond the clouds of grey
There's so much we can do
And I believe with all my heart
That miracles come true
Even for you...

Break Me Down

I don't know where to go
I don't know what to do
My lonely heart is aching
These empty days are breaking my heart

I wrestled the angels
I fought my calling well
And all I have to show for it
Is sadness, sorrow and deep regret
So hear my prayer Jesus

I said take my down
I said break me down
Yeah take these pieces of my emptiness
I lay them before you in humbleness

I tried to be what You wanted
But I always end up here
I trusted in myself again
But then I wake up bound in chains again

And now I know I'll never make it on my own
So here's my prayer

Take me down
I said break me down
Yeah, take these pieces of my emptiness
I lay them before you in humbleness

Jesus I give you my life
I don't want to waste it
Jesus I give you my mind
So you can change it
Jesus I give you my will
I'll let you break it
Jesus I wanna be real
Don't let me fake it
Just break it

Jesus I give you the pieces
Of brokenness and debris
I know you will restore me now
To what I was created to be

I give you my heart, and my mind, body and soul

Take me down
I said break me down
Yeah take these pieces of my emptiness
I lay them before you in humbleness

You Belong to Me

I see the little things you do
All of what makes you, you
You are so perfect, so precious to me
Can't you see

I saw you deep in the womb
And gave you a blessing so true
And no one can take it away because I gave it to you
And don't you know

You belong to Me
You always belong to Me
I know you made mistakes
But I don't care what they say
I'm gonna love you anyway
And nothing could ever take away My love for you

You think you're not wonderful
Someone told you you're not beautiful
But the one who designed you is living inside you each day

And He'll be a light to your path
Or show you the way to come back
And make you a light that will shine for all eternity
And don't you know

You belong to Me
You always belong to Me
You thought you were too far gone
But I don't care what they say
I'm gonna love you anyway
And nothing could ever take away
My love for you

And now nothing can separate us from His love
Not even demons below or angels from up above
Nothing I've done in my past or my present or things yet to come
Not even height or depth or anything in all creation
Could ever separate us

Rest in My arms little child
Come out from the wind and the rain
I'll give you protection
I don't need perfection from you
But you are perfection to Me
When I see you that's what I see
And we'll live together forever in eternity
And don't you know

You belong to Me
You always belong to Me
So rest in the truth that I say
'Cause I don't care what they say
I'm gonna love you anyway
And nothing could ever take away
My love for you
