1.I Can
lookin on the sad times, the guilt and all the shame i have learned to submit my existing hurts and pains
all the grief i've learned to set aside 'cause i am, i am, i am- feeling underrooted, feeling undermined can
this grace of god conver me this time?
when i fell the pain i know why i feel strange, when i hear the rooster crow i am ashamed
jesus on the cross and this cross upon my back i have learned to sumbmit then i whine about my lack,
somtimes i drop my cross, deserve a little rest that's when i run to you and i nail your feet and your wrist-
i'm feeling underooted, feeling undermined, can this grace of god cover me this time?
do you really love my soul, even after i hated you? and do you really know my name, can i really come to
you? and are you really more faithfull than the changing of the seasons and the morning sun?
do you really know my name, can i really come to you?
I CAN(repeated several times)
i don't care if the rooster crows (the rooster crows 3 or 4 times)
I CAN
2. Gasoline i'm sitting with my heart out on the table and i'm doing a face to face with
god- he picked up my heart and said, "what u want me to do with this?"
i just blinked my eyes no smile, no laugh, no tears,
no shrugging my shoulders--
it crossed my mind, yeah i got an idea you coulk take my heart
and put it in a padlocked box what if they grab it too hard or smash it,
or throw it down i'm scared of being hurt, i just want to live,
live a happy life!
you want to, you want to soak my heart in gasoline light a match
and consume me soak my pride in gasoline all of you and none of me--
i was reminded my hearts reeks of gasoline it bears the mark of a
slave committed for life--
anyone who wants it will have to grab it from a real big god try to touch me,
you'll be consumed i want to, i want to--
i'm sitting with my heart out on the tabe next to a bloody mess that was once
a man's heart i looked at god and said, "what you want me to do with this?"
he said, "already done, already done, already done"
that heart was jesus...
3. Saturn
i ask him- when will i- be free- he said- i am askin him- when will i- change he said-
no mater now, no mater now
saturn has a ring around it but you can never see it with your eyes,
saturn has a ring around it, many moons know this to be true
you ask him- how can you- be real he- said you'll be- knowin him- how you do-
now he says rest in this,
rest in this
saturn has a ring around it but you can never see it with your eyes, saturn has a ring around it
many moons know this to be true-
saturn has a ring around it but you can never see it with your eyes,
saturn has a ring around it many moons know this to be ture-
heaven has a ring around it-
and the angels sing a song over you,
heaven has a ring around you-
if you dont see it know that it's true- if you dont see it know that it's true-
if you dont see it know that it's true-
4. My Beautiful Robe
i want pleasure in your sight and i want to subcribe to your delight
so hold on and see what i do for you oh by the way, did you see me dressed in my beautiful robe?
my head was bleeding so red but of all the thorns in my crown, the roses blended instead with my
beautiful- robe-
carries on, i'll carry on i cut down a tree said,
"man would you look at me"
i stuck my head in a thron bush man i was deceived
oh my brother, your hands are full of sores
but god bless u brother, my nails are longer than yours-
i ws crucified with christ but how come i'm not dead-
god gave me a cross but i made my own instead-
my beautiful cross carries on, i'll carry on
i cut down a tree, nailed myself to the wood, i screamed in agony 'cause the glory wasn't so good
i fell to my knees and i remember the words of god pierced so hard, "your righteousness is like filthy rags"
and i fell to my knees and said,
"god, my filthy robe" "god, my filthy robe"
5. Promise blender
when i was a young boy i saw a vision of your face
i made my first promise to you yeah ya know it took some time but i love you now
i realize-
i am a promise maker
i am a promise breaker
on the road to faithfulness i sometimes forget your name but i can still see your face
and time after time i hear you calling my name
i gotta name for me, i gotta name for me, i gotta name for me, i gotta name-
i am the promise maker
i am the promise breaker
on my knees for the last time
i could rip my heart out every day
i made my last promise to you
yeah i could cry, i could cry a million tears a day
and all i would hear you, all i would hear you say is you are the promise taker
you are the promise taker you are the promise taker
put them in your promise blender
you took me, and you own me and you bought me, and you love me
promise keeper, keeper, keeper
6. Paint
we take a walk in the garden, we share the fruits of life, we lie benath this canopy
why did we take that bite?
we cover up our shame, we walk in black and white we turn this ground for hunger
why did we take that bite?
paint me with an endless sunrise paint me-
paint me, open my eyes, paint me with the color of love
you took a walk on the planet, you gave us shade and light, you create mood and substance
how can i take a bite?
paint me with an endless sunrise paint me, paint me, open my eyes
paint me with the color of love
paint me, mark me up, in these frail, dot-to-dot lines-
color me from one red stream from which all others flow-
take my black and white and yellow brown and pink and hate and sorrow, paint me with an endless sunrise
paint me
paint me, open my eyes, paint me with the color of love
7. Safe With You
learning inside i will be safe with you tonight
cause the smile and the reardrops in my eyes locked inside your every movement
will i stand or will i fall? trapped inside your walls of glory
i am just as the dead leaves fall- chaos in my head
the whole universe is at rest
when i'm in your arms is when i feel the best
locked inside your creative being whirled about in your unfailing truth
attaked with power by ferocious love
salvation alone belongs to you!
lifting up my voice to the God who is consumed with loving thoughts of me the screaming winds
and the crashing of the oceans
shifting sands and the changing of the seasons as i stand in awe and wonder
nothing in the world has prepared me for you!
Jesus, Jesus, i'm safe with you
8. You Thought
you try to answer slow
you put your head down low
c'mon take your time try to choose the most believable lie
you try to walk away and tell me everything's okay
you think you're saved by words but you're drowning in the absurd
but to me it's no big surprise
you thoguth i never saw your eyes- departed with a smile
just like walking down the aisle you shook the preacher's hand
but your smile can't hide your sin
your eyes tell me what you feel
your eyes tell me what is real
nobody's perfect is your prediction
your life is proving you convition! to me it's no big surprise i saw the emptiness in your eyes
9. Boundaries
i stand here closed and open praying for the summer rains-
reaching in to pull back the curtains-
ruling in this desolate land
i will let me go my walls melt away
you have no boundaries
you cross my borders
you have no boundaries
you crash my borders
i lie here clothed and naked-
dam bursts to cool ocean waves-
black water cleans the highway
resting in the washing away i will let me go
my walls melt away
you have no boundaries you cross my borders
you have no boundaries you cross my borders
you are more than all that is outside of me
you are more than that which is inside of me
you have no boundaries i have no borders from you
you have no boundaries
i have no borders
10. Splinter
here i lie again inside this broken body
wrestle against the tree, my muscles aching to get up now is death
to die is to really live fleash is restless, twisting
splinter me, splinter me
my heart, my head
splinter me
here i think again to try to solve this puzzle
what is not yours i don't want
my mind aching to reconstruct my thoughts or let it blow away
you are all-knowing, changing, yeah you're
killing my
splinter me, splinter me
my heart, my head
splinter me
jesus whispered softly,
jesus shouted it out
his kingdom body coming but we nail him up and hate each other
splinter me, splinter me
my broken body
splinter me
