Don't Worry; He Promised Us

It's a new day
It's a new slate
Everything seems like it's gonna
Turn out great
Until we say
"I can do it on my own
I don't need anyone's help"
Then it feels as though
Everything we have ever known
Just vanished before our eyes

Don't worry
He promised us
That we would be adopted
As His own children
And He would never
Abandon us as orphans
No matter what we do or say
So why does it take a tragedy
To bring us back to you

Going through trials
And becoming miserable
Is the road we've walked for miles
The only comfort we could find
Was through prayer
And reading our Bible

Don't worry
He promised us
That we would be adopted
As His own children
And He would never
Abandon us as orphans
No matter what we do or say
So why does it take a tragedy
To bring us back to you

We fall to our knees
Singing about Your mercy and grace
Making up our minds
That You are all we need
Thank God, You are all we need

Don't worry
He promised us
That we would be adopted
As His own children
And He would never
Abandon us as orphans
No matter what we do or say
So why does it take a tragedy
To bring us back to you

Live Like Yo Mean It

Shine your light so bright
So everyone can see
That it's all about You
It's not about me
Live like you mean it
Live like you mean it

We never get a vacation
From our reputation
'Cause everyone's watching us
Always making a big fuss
When we mess up
But nobody is perfect
So we need to be wise
Making the most
Of every opportunity
No matter what problems arise
We'll be ready
So...

Shine your light so bright
So everyone can see
That it's all about You
It's not about me
Live like you mean it
Live like you mean it

We can say no
To what is wrong
Caught up in the moment
Just going along
And doing stupid things
That later
We're left wondering
Did you really

Shine your light so bright
So everyone can see
That it's all about You
It's not about me
Live like you mean it
Live like you mean it

It's all about You
So live like you mean it

I Want To Know

How can they be this strong
They've been through so much
It's just a hunch
But I think love is the key

Why do they love
Why do they care
What's the big deal

I come in and want friends
They want change
But not sure
What to think of me
I'm just in range
For them to see
I want what God sends

I want to know
(echo: Want to know)
Why do they love
I want to know
(echo: Want to know)
Why do they care
I want to know
(echo: Want to know)
What is the big deal
We all want change
Can this be real

It's a whole new start
A whole new game
We play the part
But it's not the same

Those who were apart
Of our lives are gone
But not forgotten
Separated by miles
But not by the love
In our hearts
It's not jive
So what is it then

I want to know
(echo: Want to know)
Why do they love
I want to know
(echo: Want to know)
Why do they care
I want to know
(echo: Want to know)
What is the big deal
We all want change
Can this be real

I had to cast my anxieties
Under His mighty hand
He always lifts me up
In due time
And it didn't cost a dime

I'm still wondering
Why we accept each other
It's God's plan
That's all I have to say
'Cause there's no other way

He Came Back

My Jesus lives
My Jesus saves
My Jesus is coming back for me
My Savior lives
My Savior saves
My Savior is coming back for me

This kind of gift
Can never wear out
But don't wait
Until it's too late
'Cause when comes
The last call
We'll find out
That the Bible
Was true after all

My Jesus lives
My Jesus saves
My Jesus is coming back for me
My Savior lives
My Savior saves
My Savior is coming back for me

On one clear night
I suddenly heard angels proclaiming
That Jesus was returning

Before I could
Even blink my eye
Or say good-bye
I saw Him
Face to face
Oh, what a glorious sight

My Jesus lives
My Jesus saves
My Savior lives
My Savior saves

My Jesus lives
My Jesus saves
My Jesus came back for me
My Savior live
My Savior saves
My Savior came back for me

My Jesus came back
My Savior came back
He came back for me

Home To You

It seems like they don't care
Going on walking in this world
With so many stories to be told
Trying to find a place to hide
If only they knew you by their side

Give me strength to tell
Give me the words to say
To end the devil's spell
To point to the right way
Help me bring them home to You

I'm your servant
Use me for Your will
Keep me strong and reverent
To honor You until...
I'm with you forever
But until then
I ask you to

Give me strength to tell
Give me the words to say
To end the devil's spell
To point to the right way
Help me bring them home to You

Bring them home
Bring them home

Give me strength to tell
Give me the words to say
To end the devil's spell
To point to the right way
Help me bring them home to You

Help me bring them home to You
