Stars go down in the western sky
The light fades in as the darkness dies
Sunlight, sweet sunlight
Brings the day that You’ve created
Perfect remedy
For all that tears at me
Arise, arise with the morning
Arise, your mercies are new
Arise, arise with the morning
That finds me running back to you
Darkness comes and covers all my faults
Tears fall down, sting my wounds like salt
Hopes fade, till I’m caught
In the day that You’ve created
pre-chorus * chorus
I’m anxiously waiting
Redemption is brimming
With stories created
Each new day
I know you are coming
chorus

You could never understand
Just how scared I am
I’ve lived and loved and lost a thousand times
Is this a second chance
Just to make it past all my doubt and fear
I don’t wanna cry tonight
Don’t wanna hang my heart on my sleeve
But you’re everything my soul could ever need
Don’t wanna cry tonight
It’s just a little faith
Gets us further in this race
We both know trust don’t come too easily
Is this just romance
Or will we take a chance on something beautiful
chorus 1
I don’t wanna cry tonight
Don’t wanna know my heart’s broke in two
‘Cause all I ever need right here is you
I don’t wanna cry tonight
Don’t say it’s hard enough to be myself
‘Cause all I ever need is you All I need is you…
chorus 1 * chorus 2

 I’m Clean

Love is just a picture of your glory
And my best tries at love have fallen short
I pretend these dirty clothes are holy
Knees patched up with grace from you, O Lord
No one is righteous,
But I’m not the one you see
I’m clean,
I’m covered by forgiveness here
And only You can forget all I’ve done
I’m clean
Through no good of my own
But when you look at me You see Your Son
And I am clean
Looking back, my past is worth forgetting
But every try brings me to my knees
Where I can see the shades of your forgiving
Each color covers a sinful memory
I can’t be righteous
But I’m not the one You see
chorus
On my own,
I’m simply man, at best
But my sin’s
As far as east from west
Covered by the blood
That Your Son shed:
His perfection now defines me
chorus

I’ve had just enough
Of the spotlight when it burns bright
To see how it gets in the blood
I’ve tasted my share
Of the sweet life and the wild ride
And found a little is not quite enough
I know how I can stray
And how fast my heart could change
Empty me of the selfishness inside
Every vain ambition and the poison of my pride
And any foolish thing my heart holds onto
Lord, empty me of me so I can be filled with you
I’ve seen just enough
Of the quick buys of the best lies
To know how prodigals can be drawn away
pre-chorus * chorus
‘Cause everything is a lesser thing
Compared to you, compared to you
‘Cause everything is a lesser thing
Compared to you, so I surrender all
solo * chorus

There’s something beautiful
About the way you don’t make sense
A crown for a cross, heaven for earth
Beauty for ashes in the dirt
There’s something marvelous,
Some kind of mystery in your grace
Love comes from pain, joy comes from loss
Still we find beauty in the cross
And hope from what was lost
Though I can’t wrap my mind
Around the mysteries I’ll be fine
There’s something beautiful in all I can’t see
through
Though I don’t understand today
The mysteries of grace I’ll be okay
There’s something beautiful in all I can’t see
through
There’s something wonderful
About the way you break my heart
This world for a cross, riches for shame
Trading this glory for your name
And success for lovely gain
chorus
Oh, something beautiful
Oh, something beautiful
chorus * bridge

Lost in the windows of time,
You see a time of change
Don’t it all feel strange?
Stuck in the reverb of me,
I hear echos of myself
But I can’t say what I see.
I’m finding the answers
To my great divide
Someday when the sky is falling I will let you
know
Someday when my dreams are caving in I will let
you know
I’ll let you know
Forget the first verse of life:
There’s nothing learned at all -
At least until you fall.
Stratospheres and atmospheres collide,
Worlds come to an end
And there’s nowhere left to hide.
pre-chorus * chorus
...when I’m falling
I’ll let you know when I’m calling
I’ll let you know when I’m breaking
I’ll let you know when I’m making it through.
chorus

In a moment, love can pass you by
And in a moment, a heart can come alive
Every moment’s getting better
Every moment brings me closer to you
Can I hold you till the morning light
Takes away the dead of night
And sunrise shines on you?
Can love take all these fears away
Till morning comes with brand new day?
It’s love that pulls us through
In a moment.
In a moment love can tear you down
And in a moment a heart can come around
pre-chorus * chorus
I feel you in my heart
I feel you in my soul
Oh, you make me whole
In a moment…
chorus

 Are You Pleased

Can you see through all these filthy rags
That I like to call my good
And see the mirror of my heart reflecting you
I know you listen to me, but what do you hear
Am I lovely to your ear?
All I want is to hear you say “well done”
Are you pleased with me?
Am I everything you want for me to be?
Are you pleased?
I know that I am nothing
Outside of who you are
And it’s you I should be striving to become
I know you’re watching over me, but what do
you see
Am I moving towards the grace that covers me?

pre-chorus
Are you pleased with me?
Am I everything you want for me to be?
Am I drawing closer to you?
Is my heart deciding you are all I need?
Are you pleased?
Oh, I know I could never do enough on my own
But still you see me through the precious blood
Oh, it’s only the blood of Jesus…
All I want is to hear you say “well done”
pre-chorus * chorus 2
