Father of Lights (track 1)

What is lost I pray you find 
What has gone from yours to mine 
What is this I seek in the islands like a dream… 
     Jealous of your space and time 
     We chase fortunes and sublime 
Home is brilliant streets, after ages, after seas 

Father of brilliant lights, 
on Your street I’m longing to bless THE LORD oh my soul 

Here’s an ear to hear the truth
In forever, what’s to do? 
Can I stay with You in Your house of many rooms? 
Guided by some mystery lines, 
Is my way so well defined? 
And eternity?
Here is Eden, like a dream 

Father of brilliant lights, 
on Your street I’m longing to bless THE LORD, oh my soul

Shem (track 2)

Behold the City of THE LORD, 
it is beautiful
Behold the plains of Yerushalayim,
the place of the soles of His feet
where HE drinks and eats
where HE drinks and eats, HE is there

Behold – 
the servants of my GOD

Behold – 
HE reigns in Israel

Behold –
the Captain of all of us, HE is there
in the place of His Name
in the house of His friends
where HE drinks and eats, HE is there

My Father’s Courts (track 3)

The laws of THE LORD show His mercies on the ones HE loves
and His favor on the land HE chose
Father bring us to the House where you will reign on earth

And oh let there be justice coming from my Father’s courts in Zion
In Zion
In Zion, HE will reign 
for good

Father, lead us to the House where you will reign for good
and oh let there be justice coming from my Father’s courts in Zion

I Will Cast My Cares (track 4) 

One word
one sign
one thing that’s mine, mine
above the atlas that I’ve known 
as long as the evening comes
as long as the sun’s up above
as far as the eye goes 
while my soul cries out
while my soul cries out
while my soul cries out,
HE hears me.

And I will cast my cares upon THE LORD forever

Beautiful, beautiful is the love of my LORD
Beautiful, beautiful is the love of my LORD
HE makes it all joy
and HE is a staff
by this I stand

My Relief (track 5)
– Psalm 37:23-25 – 

LORD my relief
LORD my deliverer
Keep my heart steady
Steady for the course

LORD my desire
YOU are my Savior
Behind my Rock
Safe from all harm

Though the righteous may fall, he is not cast down from THE LORD
for the arm of THE LORD upholds with His hand
and HE is not weak
His Arm is able
to keep these hearts steady 
and move us along

Remove the veil O LORD in front of us
So we can see and be assured
all my life…
Immanuel.
GOD is with us.
Immanuel.
you better be sure, though you are young, though you are old,
you’ve never seen the righteous forsaken by GOD

Though the righteous may fall, he is not cast down from THE LORD
for the Arm of THE LORD upholds with His hand
and HE is not weak
His Arm is able
to keep these hearts steady 
and move us along.

Bless THE LORD The King who leads His souls in righteousness
Bless the Holy One who guides us with His voice

All Travelers (track 8)

Now all you travelers, come home
Now all you travelers, come home

If by air 
or if by train,
if by word,
or if by grace
as my Father leads the way.
Leave your ruins to their fate,
all your loss is to your gain,
and my Father leads the way.

THE LORD is Beautiful (track 11)
– Acts 3:1-10, 2 Kings 6:15-17 – 

THE LORD is beautiful
like the gates in which a beggar sits 
receiving more than what his mouth requests 
when looking to the eyes of one who had seen the King
he’s carried in but leaping out
he follows close, a rich man now 
“THE LORD is beautiful” the song he sings

THE LORD is beautiful
like the river of my dreams
whose wavy path embraces land
and now baptized, it’s lush and green
THE LORD is beautiful for what HE sees and what HE ignores –
a child of GOD, his former course –
HE sees a child of GOD, ignores his former course

THE LORD is beautiful
when he opens up my eyes
and to surrounded man, HE shows the guard
that oversees the fearful heart
because HE guides with hands unseen
from every trial and error
and if HE loves, it’s unto death

I’m never sure what I need with all the thistles in me…
Right now I’m running to a river that is crystal and clean…

THE LORD is beautiful, like no other
no one’s beauty compares to my Father’s
THE LORD is beautiful, patient and just
HE makes wise a simple mind
and breaks my heart with simple love

HE’s beautiful

Soldier’s Prayer (track 12)
– Revelation 3:18 –

If I rise, circling thoughts, barrel eye, cure my heart
If I sleep, cover me with all the things that fools refuse to keep
In the afternoon, if afterthoughts are born,
like the silence kills the consequence of words, and I can’t sleep
Remind me of the metal I forgot
A child but still a soldier in a war

If I rise, trailing thoughts, rusty seams, steel my heart
If I sleep, stand between me and the swords that live to trouble dreams
In the afternoon perimeters I walk,
protect my eyes, the view is quite a world, and all I see
Remind me of the metal I once bought
A child is still soldier in a war

***

In the World (track 13)

Let HE who made the world forever acknowledge you, His own
And cover all that you endeavor with favor from His throne
And make us secure, my Father GOD, in the world
That we may be sure of His grace and we be sure of His power
And always know our GOD
No matter what these ears hear
No matter what these eyes see
No matter what the world appears to be
For HE knows the sheep of His pasture
And those of His flock fear His voice
And no one can take us from His hands
In the world, we rejoice
For in the world, HE will come.

***

Walls (track 14)
– Isaiah 62:7, Revelation 21:23 –

Let His walls be built in righteousness
Let His people walk the land
Let all the precious of THE LORD appear in His hand
And though the world burns, 
In Zion, let it come
for you are greatly loved and a light when it’s done

Let a house be built in righteousness 
when HE dwells among all men
Make it a praise among the nations once again

My GOD does not sleep
We give Him no rest
till this house is raised
on His holy land
and till His praise come from Zion once again
for You are greatly loved and the light of men

***

New (track 16)

Through many fires,
we come
before the King of Kings
in the land
after ages
and all is done
to sing our song of love to the Lamb
who made us new

And the joy of my life is waiting for You

***

Beyond My Understanding (track 17)

Don’t close these eyes in grief
I will wait for the one who says “follow Me”
that I might see the house of my LORD
the one who fills the earth and makes a home beyond my understanding
How then can I weep…
when you sing songs of joy over me?

***

Imi – With me (track 21)

Of whom shall I be afraid when my GOD is with me? 
Whom shall I fear?
Of whom shall I be afraid when my GOD is with me? 
HE moves mountains by His mouth.

When my GOD is with me, I will not be afraid
When my GOD is with me, I will not be afraid

***

Imkha – With You (track 22)
– Isaiah 41:10 – 

What if I don’t sleep tonight?
What if I lift my voice and cry out loud?

Do not fear, HE’s by your side
Do not turn your eyes and look all around
saying “Where is my GOD?”
HE is with you
saying “Where is my GOD?”
HE is here.

LORD on dry land, You are able to water us 
Deliver from thirst my Father
Wounds are open anguish, rescue us
And bring assurance in the night of all that can’t be seen now…

HE is my song
in the morning
The night is done
and the dawn come
when my eyes
are enlightened by my King
Father…
I’m remembered of HE..

Where is my GOD?
HE is with me.
Where is my GOD?
HE is here.
HE will also give you strength and courage
HE will also be your help and hold you fast
in the right hand of His righteousness,
in YASHUA.

My Father’s Words (track 41)

Even if the air inside of me
struggles with the air I’m trying to breathe
I’ll be there forever running outside in His world

Nothing lasts forever, nothings free
Except for every word HE gave to me

And I’ll never fall asleep wondering now
HE gave His Word,
and it’s done

As Long As You’re With Me (Everything’s Good) (track 42)

I’m hooked on
I’m losing time
I want no remedy to satisfy and ease my mind
I won’t worry now
As long as You’re with me

Too many words and heavy signs to say it wasn’t true
If my intention was to sell it all to be with You
I won’t worry now
As long as You’re with me

We stand in lines of heavy fire
And put our trust in You
His righteous ones, He’ll never let be moved
Help me out in this world

I need a way
to breathe
And everything, everything’s good
As long as You’re with me

Father in Heaven of brilliant lights
Don’t You see me with my heart on my sleeve tonight
I got nothing but a simple request
Clothe me in strength
Give me Your rest
Cos I wanna see all Your kingdoms in glory
I wanna be on the ground that You told me
I won’t worry now
As long as You’re with me

I wanna see all Your kingdoms in glory
I wanna be on the ground that You told me
Help me out in this world

I need a way
I need a way to breathe
I know You’d say to me
“Everything, everything’s good
as long as you’re with Me”

I need a way
I need a way to breathe
I know You’d say to me
“Everything, everything’s good
as long as you’re with Me”

Father, as long as Your kingdom comes
Father, as long as Your will is done
Everything, everything’s good
As long as You’re with me

Generations (track 44)
– Psalm 33 – 

THE LORD looks from heaven
HE sees all the children of men
From the place of His dwelling HE looks
on those who dwell on the earth

No king is saved by his arms,
his sword won’t deliver his soul
But on those whose hope is His mercy,
HE is our help,
and every hope rests in THE LORD

THE LORD lives forever,
through all generations of men
Let the people of the earth
fear the One who made this world

His eyes, they search to and fro,
for all those who trust in THE LORD
and for those whose hope is His mercy
HE is our help
And every hope rests in LORD

Blessed is the nation whose GOD is THE LORD,
People HE chose for His own
All those who stand and remember His words
Blessed are the children of God
Blessed is the Maker of Heaven and Earth
Blessed is YASHUA The Word
All those who wait for You here on the earth
We bless THE LORD

This soul, it waits for THE LORD,
for our help,
our shield,
and our hope,
and this heart rejoices in His mercy
HE is our help
And every hope rests in THE LORD
