SOMETHING BEAUTIFUL
Jars of Clay:
If you put your arms around me,
Could it change the way I feel?
I guess I let myself believe
That the outside might just bleed its way in
Maybe stir the sleeping past
Lying under glass
I'm waiting for the kiss
That breaks this awful spell
Pull me out
Of this lonely cell

Close my eyes and hold my heart
Cover me and make me something
Change this something normal
Into something beautiful

What I get from my reflection
Isn't what I thought I'd see
Give me reason to believe
You'd never keep me incomplete
You untie this loss of mine
That easily defines me
Do you see it on my face
That all I can think about is how long
I've been waiting to feel you move me

Close my eyes and hold my heart
Cover me and make me something
Change this something normal
Into something beautiful
Into something beautiful
Into something beautiful

And I'm still fighting for the word to break these chains
And I still pray when I look in your eyes
You'd stare right back down
Into something beautiful

So close my eyes and hold my heart
Cover me and make me something
Change this something normal
Into something beautiful
Into something beautiful
Into something beautiful
Into something beautiful

History Maker: Delirious?

Is it true today, that when people pray
Cloudless skies will break; kings and queens will shake
Yes it's true and I believe it!
I'm living for you! I’m living for you!

Is it true today that when people pray
We'll see dead men rise and the blind set free?
Yes, it's true and I believe it!
I'm living for you! I’m living for you!

CHORUS
I'm gonna be a history maker in this land.
I'm gonna be a speaker of truth to all mankind.
I'm gonna stand, I'm gonna run
Into your arms, into your arms again.


Well, it's true today that when people stand
With the fire of God and the truth in hand
We'll see miracles, we'll see angels sing
We'll see broken hearts making history!

Yes it's true and I believe it!
I'm living for you! I’m living for you!

Chorus (x2) 

///Into your arms, into Your arms again! ///
// I’m gonna run into Your arms//
My Savior! My Savior! I’m gonna run into Your arms!

I NEED YOU Jars of Clay

Strangely out of place,

there is a light filling this room,

where none will follow before.

I can’t deny it burns me up inside

I fan the flames to melt away my pride.

Do I want shelter from the rain

or the rain to wash me away?

CHORUS

/// I NEED YOU ///

/// I NEED YOU ///

You’re all my living for,

I might sound like a fool,

but I think I felt you moving closer to me.

Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut.

I fight the weight, I feel you lift me up.

You are the shelter from the rain

and the rain to wash me away.

CHORUS

/// I NEED YOU///

/// I NEED YOU ///

(You’re all I’m living for)

/// I NEED YOU ///

You’re all I’m living for

(You’re all I’m living for)

(You’re all I’m living for),

You’re all I’m living for,

Face to the ground to hide the fatal cut.

I fight the weight,

I feel you lift me up.

I can’t deny it burns me up inside,

I fan the flames to melt away my pride.

I only had a second to spare,

but all the time in the world

to know you’re there.

You are the shelter from the rain

and the rain to wash me away.

CHORUS

/// I NEED YOU///

(You’re all I’m living for)

/// I NEED YOU ///

(You’re all I’m living for)

/// I NEED YOU ///

You’re all I’m living for

(You’re all I’m living for),

You’re all I’m living for

(You’re all I’m living for)

You’re all I’m living for

(You’re all I’m living for)

You’re all I’m living for

(You’re all I’m living for)

You’re all I’m living for

Who am I: 38th parallel

Made like a mirror to reflect his glory
But the glass got smashed, bought a counterfeit story
We gave into pride
Sacrificed life, on that day we died inside
Outside we ignited a rebellion
An infectious disease that labels us felons
Cold and alone, ever wandering in search of a home


Hearts breaking, hands shaking
In time with our hearts vibrating
We say bridges to yesterday are burned
Seasons over, all those leaves have turned
But we cannot look down
We can never keep our gaze locked on the ground
And we stand with wide wide eyes
As our world comes crashing down


// Who am I to say I'm right?
Who am I to say you're wrong?
Play judge, look you in the eye
Who am I to throw the stones? //

Now, remember when trust went for free
Sold for a smile on the face of a fantasy
Truth found her home in the pages of fairy tales
Decadent words formed the phrases for dreams that failed
Now trust is a costly commodity
Giving it away is the mark of absurdity
And truth is a homeless traveler
Hoping in the night to be found

// And we wave goodbye to our innocence
And we wave goodbye to our ignorance
And we wave goodbye to our nursery mindsets
Abandoning cribs of complacence //

Colored People

dc Talk
Jesus Freak

[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, mr
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin
We've gotta come together
And thank the Maker of us all

(chorus)
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted place
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
We've got a history so full of mistakes
And we are colored people who depend on a Holy Grace

[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

A piece of canvas is only the beginning for
It takes on character with every loving stroke
This thing of beauty is the passion of an Artist's heart
By God's design, we are a skin kaleidoscope
We've gotta come together,
Aren't we all human after all?

(repeat chorus)

Ignorance has wronged some races
And vengeance is the Lord's
If we aspire to share this space
Repentance is the cure

[1, 1, 1, 1... 2, 2, 2, 2... 3, 3, 3, 3... 4, 4, 4, 4]

Well, just a day in the shoes of a color blind man
Should make it easy for you to see
That these diverse tones do more than cover our bones
As a part of our anatomy
(repeat chorus)
We're colored people, and they call us the human race
[Oh, colored people]
We're colored people, and we all gotta share this space
[Yeah we've got to come together somehow]
We're colored people, and we live in a tainted world
[Red and yellow, black and white]
We're colored people, every man, woman, boy, and girl
[Colored people, colored people, colored people, colored people, yeah]
