You Raise Me Up - sung by Josh Groban (as well as the group Selah)

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up: To more than I can be.

Promise of a Lifetime by Kutless

I have fallen to my knees
As I sing a lullaby of pain
I'm feeling broken in my melody
As I sing to help the tears go away
Then I remember the pledge you made to me

(Chorus)
I know you're always there
To hear my every prayer inside I'm clinging to
The promise of a lifetime
I hear the words you say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

Will you help me fall apart
Pick me up, take me in your arms
Find my way back from the storm
And you show me how to grow through the change
I still remember the pledge you made to me

(Chorus)
I know you're always there
To hear my every prayer inside I'm clinging to
The promise of a lifetime
I hear the words you say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

I am holding on to the hope I have inside
With you I will stay through every day
Putting my understanding aside
I am comforted

(Chorus)
To know you're always there
To hear my every prayer inside I'm clinging to
The promise of a lifetime
I hear the words you say
To never walk away from me and leave behind
The promise of a lifetime

(Chorus)
I know you're always there
To hear my every prayer inside I'm clinging to
The promise of a lifetime
Looking back at me
I know that you can see my heart is holding to
The promise of a lifetime

Come Home by Crystavox

My Lord started a fire, but it hurts to hold it out,
And I can't deny the pain when my heart wants me to doubt.
Sometimes in confusion, I choose to lose my way,
But never beyond his faithful grip where I can hear him say
Come home...

There's a thousand reasons why I can justify my ways
A temporary refuge where I hide but never stay.
Nothing is accomplished when I'm busy building walls.
Nothing but acceptance lights the way when Daddy calls

Chorus:
Come home, son, many nights my tears brought you the rain.
Come home, son, it hurts so much, but you are worth the pain.
Come home, son, I have so many things to give to you.
Come home, son, today we start, today all things are new
If you'll just come home.

I hold eternal fire that the world cannot put out,
And it burns away the desire to accept a life of doubt.
To find the world is sacrificed on an altar of vanity
Draws me to my Father's arms where he longs for me to be.

(Repeat chorus)

HI E, I was wondering if you listen to josha33...I have a list at work of the songs that I like...

Do you mean Jonah33?

If so, I have heard a few of their songs - All For You, All That Matters, Faith Like That (my favorite) and Watching You Die.

They are new to me.

I think you would really like Seventh Day Slumber. The lyrics of the songs I put on here are really brought to life by their music.

No Boundaries by Crystavox

Have mercy on me Father for I have done you wrong.
I've broken your heart again and I cannot carry on.
My legs are weak from running and I can't cry anymore.
I've given up pretending, I need you like never before.

Then in your arms I feel it, and in your face I see,
In your words I read it, just how much you love me.

Chorus:
And there is love that knows no boundaries
There is hope that sees you through
There is peace that passes understanding
When there's nothing I can do, there is love.

My world has crashed around me, I watched the castle I'd built fall.
Now I can't trust my own understanding when I cannot stand at all.
The time has left me stranded with the coastline out of view.
I've stroked against the current, like a ship without a crew

But in His arms I feel it, and in His face I see,
In His words I read it, how He loves you and me.

Chorus

When I seem to run on empty and I need a helping hand
The world may call me weak, but I know you'll help me stand
When I forget the things I do, your the friend that pulls me through
And when I feel I'm losing ground, I'm sure to run to you

Chorus

This Is Your Life by Switchfoot

yesterday is a wrinkle on your forehead
yesterday is a promise that you've broken
don't close your eyes, don't close your eyes
this is your life and today is all you've got now
yeah, and today is all you'll ever have
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes

this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
when the world was younger and you had everything to lose

yesterday is a kid in the corner
yesterday is dead and over

this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed that it would be
when the world was younger and you had everything to lose

don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes
don't close your eyes

this is your life are you who you want to be
this is your life are you who you want to be

this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, are you who you want to be
this is your life, is it everything you dreamed it would be
when the world was younger and you had everything to lose

and you had everything to lose

Ah, yes, Jonah33...Faith like that...you nailed it!

Yes, I do like seventh day slumber...and switchfoot...

I really like Switchfoot...

Just looking through my list of hard rockers - How about these:

Dare You To Move by Switchfoot

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everyone's here
Everyone's here
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?

[Chorus:]
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout
Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be

[Chorus]

Maybe redemption has stories to tell
maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Where you gonna go?
Salvation is here

[Chorus]

Cry on My Shoulder by Overflow

You say you're falling apart.
Reached the end of the line.
Just looking for your place in an ordinary life.
No one calls you friend.
No one even knows your name.
You just want to feel loved instead of all the pain.

You no longer have to say.
No one's listening anyway.

Come here and cry on my shoulder.
I'll hold you 'til it's over.
I'll rescue you tonight.
Let my arms be your shelter,
You're hiding place forever.
I'll love you more than life.

You're wearing a frown.
Given up on hope.
My heart is reaching out.
More than you will ever know.
Is your burden too much?
Is it more than you can bare?
I'll help carry the load if you're willing to share.

You have had some hard times.
Had thorns placed in your side.
I know about what you've been going though.
Tears of pain are falling down.
It hurts so bad you're crying out.
Your problems wont last forever.
Let Me put you back together.

Cry Out to Jesus by Third Day

To everyone who's lost someone they love
Long before it was their time
You feel like the days you had were not enough
when you said goodbye

And to all of the people with burdens and pains
Keeping you back from your life
You believe that there's nothing and there is no one
Who can make it right

Chorus:
There is hope for the helpless
Rest for the weary
Love for the broken heart
There is grace and forgiveness
Mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus, Cry out to Jesus

For the marriage that's struggling just to hang on
They lost all of their faith in love
They've done all they can to make it right again
Still it's not enough

For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains
You try to give up but you come back again
Just remember that you're not alone in your shame
And your suffering

Chorus

When your lonely
And it feels like the whole world is falling on you
You just reach out, you just cry out to Jesus
Cry to Jesus

To the widow who suffers with being alone
Wiping the tears from her eyes
For the children around the world without a home
Say a prayer tonight

Chorus

Well I had to add some Hip-Hop to the mix.

Atmosphere by TobyMac

I know you keep a journal and every page is rippled
From the tears that you cry, ain’t no meanin’ to your scribble
Cause words can’t describe what you’ve been feelin’ inside
It’s like thousand foot walls, and they’re still on the rise
But look up to a beautiful sound
And see for yourself you’re not that far down
And know this, I cannot love a little
My promise to you is unconditional

And I’ll keep the light on, for you
Just keep the course, you can weather the storm
I’ll keep the light on, for you
You’ve come this far, don’t you ever lose heart, now

Just turn around and I’ll be there
I’m moving into your atmosphere
Just turn around and I’ll be there
I’m moving into your atmosphere

I know you’re all alone in a crowd full of friends
I can see it in your eyes that your fadin’ again
Checking out, moving into your hole
Where the light can’t touch any part of your soul
But hold up and let the river rush in
You can turn around and start livin’ again
Cause your life is a beautiful bloom
In the image of the one that created you

I’ll be there

Said I’ll be there, said I’ll be there
Said I’ll be there always, forever

Going In Blind by POD

This life's not like you wanted it,
His eyes I can see again,
I need you here,
In your mind nobody's listenin',
It's your right not to feel again,
Just breathe again

Time after time,
I walk the fine line,
But something keeps bringing me back,
And time after time,
I'm going in blind,
I don't know which way I need to go

Feels like your world is cavin' in,
And I cry failing to understand,
I wish I can
It's alright if you're missin' him,
In His eyes you can live again,
Free within

Time after time,
I walk the fine line,
But something keeps bringing me back,
And time after time,
I'm going in blind,
I don't know which way I need to go,
Time after time,
I walk the fine line,
But something keeps bringing me back,
And time after time,
I can't see the signs,
I don't know which way I need to go

Do all these roads lead me back to You,
I don't know which way I need to go,
Do all these roads lead me back to You,
I don't know which way I need to go,

One day,
Some day,

Time after time,
I walk the fine line,
But something keeps bringing me back,
And time after time,
I'm going in blind,
I don't know which way I need to go,
Time after time,
I walk the fine line,
But something keeps bringing me back,
And time after time,
I can't see the signs,
Do all these roads lead me back to You,
And time after time,
Do all these roads lead me back to You,


One day

Day of Fire by Day of Fire

Walk in the flame again,
I’ll be there to hold your hand,
Keeping you safe until the end
And when the flood begins,
I’ll be there with you to stand,
Walking in faith until the end

Chorus:
I see you through the flood,
See you through the fire,
See you through the storms-a-raging.

Walking the darkest rain
I cover you by my name,
A shelter inside your world of pain
Step on the waters waves
Coming to me by faith
I am the light of better days

(Chorus)

I see you through the flood,
I see you through the fire,
I see you thorough,
the storms are raging

don’t be afraid
I’ll never leave you
I Am Forever yours

Forever yours
Forever yours I am

Mountain of God by Third Day

Thought that I was all alone
Broken and afraid
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me

And I didn’t even know
That I had lost my way
But You were there with me
Yes, You were there with me

‘Til You opened up my eyes
I never knew
That I couldn’t ever make it
Without You

Even though the journey’s long
And I know the road is hard
Well, the One who’s gone before me
He will help me carry on
After all that I’ve been through
Now I realize the truth
That I must go through the valley
To stand upon the mountain of God

As I travel on the road
That You have lead me down
You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me
I have need for nothing more
Oh, now that I have found
That You are here with me
Yes, You are here with me

I confess from time to time
I lose my way
But You are always there
To bring me back again

Sometimes I think of where it is I’ve come from
And the things I’ve left behind
But of all I’ve had, what I possessed
Nothing can quite compare
With what’s in front of me
With what’s in front of me

Stand in The Gap by Petra

There's no feeling
Like when you have a friend in need
Their heart is wounded -
And you can feel your own heart bleed
And you wonder
Will they pull through this attack
You feel so helpless - you want to be fighting back
Don't think it's over - don't pull away
It's time to stand in - it's time to pray
Set the wheels in motion
With your devotion

Stand in the gap
Coming boldly to His throne of grace
Stand in the gap
He will hear you when you seek His face
Put your weapon to its use
And believe it will produce
Stand in the gap
Until all ******...
Until all ****** breaks loose

In the conflict
It seems like He doesn't hear
Be encouraged - He still has an open ear
It's not for nothing
It's not in vain
Make your petitions
Call on His name
He will bring assistance
Through your persistence

The enemy is gonna have to fold his hand
When the army of the Lord begins to take command
Nothing in the heavens or the earth can stand
Against the fervent prayer of a righteous man

First Love by Petra

Sometimes I feel I'm pulled in so many wrong directions
Sometimes I feel the world seducing my affections
It's not that I don't know the way
It's just a heart that's prone to stray
But with my weaknesses admitted
You will keep all that I've committed
So I commit my heart to You
My First Love

First Love - First Love
My soul longs after You
First Love - First Love
I want my heart to stay so true
Because You first loved me
Jesus You will always be
You will always be
My First Love

It's taken me some time to try to comprehend
A love that doesn't change - a love without an end
A love that keeps forgiving
A love of sacrifice and giving
I delight myself in You
My First Love

If I ever lack endurance
I remember Your assurance
That Your only banner over me is love
If my heart begins to waiver
Woo me back, my loving Savior
Woo me back till I return to my First Love

Simply by Pillar

I’ve made it so hard on myself, turning my back on how You felt
Seeing a lie that led me on, leaving a love that did no wrong
That’s what it took for me to say

That You simply love
Despite all the stupid things I’ve done
It’s hard to remember
That You simply love
Even though I know not what I’ve done
It’s hard to remember
That You simply love

I’ve tried to do all this on my own
Not thinking once of what You’ve shown
All that I’ve done has blinded me
To everything that You have for me
I want You to know that I finally see

I don’t know why I can’t understand
I don’t know why I can’t comprehend

This is one of my favorites:

Jeremy Camp - Take You Back

The reason why I stand
The answer lies in you
You hung to make me strong
Though my praise was few
When I fall and bring your name down

But I have found in you
A heart that pleads forgiveness
Replacing all these thoughts
Of painful memories
But I know
That your response will always be

[Chorus]
I'll take you back always
And even when your fight is over now
Even when your fight is over now
I'll take you back always
And even when the pain is coming through
Even when the pain is coming through
I'll take you back

You satisfy this cry
Of what I'm looking for
And I take all I can
And lay it down
Before the throne of endless grace, now
That radiates what's true

I'm in the only place
That erases all these faults
That have overtaken me
But I know
That your response will always be

[Repeat Chorus]

I can only speak
With a grateful heart
As I'm pierced by this gift
Of your love

I will always bring an offering
I can never thank you enough

[Chorus Two]
You'll take me back always
And even when my fight is over now
Even when my fight is over now
You'll take me back always
And even when my pain is coming through
Even when my pain is coming through
You'll take me back always

Even when my fight is over now
Even when my fight is over now

You'll take me back always

Even when my pain is coming through
Even when my pain is coming through

You'll take me back
