The WindThe Fray
Oh my gosh, I think I’m lost at sea
These silent waves are my company
And, I lost the lines between sky and sea
I’m wondering will the wind ever come for me. Yeah…
‘Cause I don’t know, I don’t know where I am
Can you tell me, will I break or will I bend?
Will the wind ever come again?
I feel the sun coming up, rising from the east
I see the empire falling to her knees
I lost the line between her and me
My troubles are gone if the wind ever coms for me.
Yeah.
‘Cause I don’t know, I don’t know where I am
Can you tell me, will I break or will I bend?
Will the wind ever come again?
I dreamed I found the shoreline
You’re standing there
I dreamed I found you waiting.
You were waiting for me, waiting for me.
I try to kiss the emptiness,
I lost the line between sky and sea
I feel the sun coming up, coming up coming up.
‘Cause I don’t know, I don’t know where I am
Can you tell me, I will break or will I bend
Will the wind ever come again?
Unpack Your HeartBy Phillip Phillips
Meet me where the sunlight ends
Meet me where the truth never bends
Bring all that you’re scared to defend
And lay it down when you walk through my door
Throw all of it out of the floor
Your sorrow, your beauty, your way
I want it all, I want it all
Bring your secrets, bring your scars
Bring your glory, all you are
Bring your daylight, bring your dark
Share your silence
And unpack your heart
Show me something the rest never see
Give me all that you hope to receive
Your deepest regret dies with me
The days when you stumble and fall
The days when you grind to a crawl
The treasure that hides behind your walls
I want it all, yeah I want it all
Bring your secrets, bring your scars
Bring your glory, all you are
Bring your daylight, bring your dark
Share your silence
And unpack your heart
Unpack your heart
Oh, I’m on your side
So shed your shadow
And watch it rise
Oh, I’m on your side
So shed your shadow
And watch it rise
Into your darkness
I’ll shine a light
Bring your secrets, bring your scars
Bring your glory, all who you are
Bring your daylight, bring your dark
Share your silence
Bring your honor, bring your shame
All your madness, I will tame
Won’t you lay down, down your guard
Share your silence
And unpack your heart
Mountain to Valley
Ben Smith
Plagued by your promises, words you have spoken
Desires you’ve placed in me, faithfully you will complete
From the mountain to the valley
From the desert to the raging sea
IN the silence or the city streets
Oh your presence always covers me
Hope you will lead the way,
peace you will be my strength
To sing in the midst of storms,
and believe in your goodness Lord
From the mountain to the valley
From the desert to the raging sea
In the silence or the city streets
Oh your presence always covers me
(Repeat)
You take me in, you lead me out
You take me in, you lead me out
You take me in, you lead me out
Such a journey walking with you now
(Repeat)
When I don’t know what steps to take
When I don’t know what moves to make
This one thing I can’t escape
Your love
When I don’t have the words to say
When I can’t seem to find my way
This one thing I can’t escape
You love
From the mountain to the valley
From the desert to the raging sea
In the silence or the city streets
Oh your presence always covers me
Vulnerable Gift
Matthew 10:16-31 (CEB)16 “Look, I’m sending you as sheep among wolves. Therefore, be wise as snakes and innocent as doves. 17 Watch out for people—because they will hand you over to councils and they will beat you in their synagogues.18They will haul you in front of governors and even kings because of me so that you may give your testimony to them and to the Gentiles.19Whenever they hand you over, don’t worry about how to speak or what you will say, because what you can say will be given to you at that moment. 20 You aren’t doing the talking, but the Spirit of my Father is doing the talking through you. 21 Brothers and sisters will hand each other over to be executed. A father will turn his child in. Children will defy their parents and have them executed. 22 Everyone will hate you on account of my name. But whoever stands firm until the end will be saved.23Whenever they harass you in one city, escape to the next, because I assure that you will not go through all the cities of Israel before the Human One[b] comes.
b.) Matthew 10:23 Or Son of Man
24 “Disciples aren’t greater than their teacher, and slaves aren’t greater than their master. 25 It’s enough for disciples to be like their teacher and slaves like their master. If they have called the head of the house Beelzebul, it’s certain that they will call the members of his household by even worse names.
26 “Therefore, don’t be afraid of those people because nothing is hidden that won’t be revealed, and nothing secret that won’t be brought out into the open. 27 What I say to you in the darkness, tell in the light; and what you hear whispered, announce from the rooftops. 28 Don’t be afraid of those who kill the body but can’t kill the soul. Instead, be afraid of the one who can destroy both body and soul in hell. 29 Aren’t two sparrows sold for a small coin? But not one of them will fall to the ground without your Father knowing about it already. 30 Even the hairs of your head are all counted. 31 Don’t be afraid. You are worth more than many sparrows.
You Are Love and Love AloneAll Sons and Daughters
God and Father, great and holy, fearing not, we come to Thee
Fearing not, though weak and lowly for Your love has set us free
And by the blue sky bending over, by the green earth’s flow’ryhome
Teach us, Lord, the angel chorus: You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone, You are
Though the worlds in flame should perish, sun and stars in ruin fall
Trust in Thee our hearts should cherish, O Lord, be our all in all
With Your name the heavens praising, angels hymns no sweeter tone
Than the songs our hearts are raising: You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone, You are
(Repeat)
Oh oh oh
How perfectly our hearts are made for love
How perfectly our hearts are made for love
How perfectly our hearts are made for love
You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone
You are love and love alone, You are
Oh oh oh
How perfectly our hearts are made for love
How perfectly our hearts are made for love
How perfectly our hearts are made for love
Oh oh oh
Oh, you are
