Please to meet you, Mister, would you talk to a sister?
Aren't there laws to follow? Am I not too hollow?
Pleased to meet you, brother, I won't tell the others.
I just need a hand, you see; could you help me? Help me!
And hey, hey, is it okay, for me to say 'hey', hey, hey?
I come in shame and guilt, consider myself to be filth.
Would you even talk to me if you really knew me? If you knew me?
And hey, hey, is it okay, for me to say 'hey', hey, hey?
Hey, hey, is it okay, for me to say 'hey', hey, hey?
'Cause I know my place, I'm aware of my space and I've heard about yours.
Put away behind this veil, no one knows how I feel, but I don't feel too well and I wish I could tell you.
Put away behind this veil, no one knows how I feel, but I don't feel too well and I wish I could tell you. Wish I could tell you.
But I know my place, I'm aware of my space and I've heard about yours.
I know my place, I'm aware of my space and I've heard about yours.
And hey, hey, is it okay, for me to say 'hey', hey, hey?
Hey, hey, is it okay, for me to say 'hey', hey, hey?
Hey, hey, is it okay, for me to say 'hey', hey, hey?
I know my place, I'm aware of my space.
I know my place, I'm aware of my space, hey, hey!

What about it!
04:10
|

What about? What about the things we used to do? And what about? What about the trust I put in you? What about it? Is there a way to forget?
What about? What about the memories on my mind? And what about? What about the scars left behind? What about the wounds deep in my soul? What about it?
I've tried to run away, I've tried to overcome. Is there a way to make it okay, or is it: what's done is done? What about it?
And what about this pain I feel inside? And what about? What about the anger I still hide? What about: forgive and forget. What about it?
I've tried to run away, I've tried to overcome. Is there a way to make it okay, or is it: what's done is done? I'm trying to break free from this prison, I need to find new space. Finding my way out of these chains, so I can say: 'Hey, what about it! What about it! What about it! What about it! Hey, what about it!'

Those eyes
03:32
|
|||
|
You caught me with those eyes
caught me once and twice
and now I’m seeing
Captivated inner parts
my soul and heart
a different being am I, and
Those eyes, those eyes
Such lovely colours
Blue or green is not
what they’re made of
Rainbows and sparkling
diamonds they show
and they make me glow, inside
You caught me with that smile
caught me for a while
kept me longer
Unable now to turn away
this smile makes me stay
cause it’s stronger than I, and…
Lucky me that I did see
and seeing was believing
Lucky me, the veil was taken
away from my eyes…
Eyes like doves by rivers of water
washed with milk
Lips like lilies...and
Make me glow, on the inside
on the outside
Make me glow

Innocence
03:37
|
|||
|
See the man, following his own plans
Working day by day and
focused on what’s on his mind
Can he find the things he really longs for?
Love, peace, happiness and more
and even more
See the wife, struggling through her life
Trying every day, but focused on her past
What went wrong, what’s been done to her
She can’t let go, even though she knows
her memories spoil her life
They spoil her life, spoil her life
Where did the innocence go?
Where did the innocence go?
Help me find the innocence
a child was born with
where did it go?
See the boy, focused on his toys
If life could only be as easy
and as happy as it seems
for this little child, no sorrow on his mind
Or maybe some, seeing people fighting, dying
while he’s playing his game
And see the girl, fourteen years or less
Pretty looking and focused on her boyfriend
Trying to live up to the standards of her time
having more than just sweet thought on her mind
She’s living up, living up to what’s expected
To what’s expected
She’s living up, living up to what’s expected

Something seems to lack
03:04
|
|||
|
You said it would be easy
but I can’t grasp the thing
You said it would be simple
I cannot comprehend
You said uncomplicated
but hey, I don’t understand
You said it would be nice
though I don’t feel that way
You said you would lift up
but I don’t seem to rise
You said it would grow on me
well, I don’t see the fruit
And all this time I try to climb higher
all the time I seem to fall back and
All this time I try to get closer
something seems to lack
You told me not to worry
all would be okay
You took me as your daughter
for that would be your way
You told me not to hurry
but to just follow your trail
Climbing higher, moving closer
Reach out and grasp more and more and more
More and more and more

Eternal life
03:02
|
|||
|
Many ways for many days
for many men to go
to go, keep going and
turn around until they fall
Many lefts, many rights
for many days and nights
but which is the way to turn
if you want to go the way that’s right?
What’s right?
True, what’s true?
Is it what I believe or do, or you:
do you think you know what is
true to me, to you
or doesn’t this make sense?
If it’s good, all pure and honest
all that you are sure of
seen within the Light
and shining brightly, then you
could have, you might have found
Way and truth and life
Way and truth and life You are
Way and truth and life
All that’s breathing, all that’s growing,
turning good and better
more and more becomes older, wiser
richer and then it dies
If that is living, sounds like survival
I’ll have to show you
something more and more
and going on far beyond death
it’s: eternal life
If that is living
sounds like survival
I’ll have to show you
something more and more
and going on far beyond death
it’s: eternal life, eternal life, eternal life!
Don’t believe in lies…
Only one way, one truth, one life
One way, one truth, one life there is
One way, one truth, one life

all day
03:22
|

|
Morning light, I open my eyes
close them again to say ‘hi’
Another day, a bright new day
and new opportunities, hey, hey
I pick out my clothes, red and white
Get dressed on the in- and the outside
I clothe me with you and in garments of praise
to look my best, all day, all day
And every breath I breathe
breathes love from you
and every move is like a prayer
all day
During the day every now and then
I lift up my head again
Say ‘thanks, hi, help me’
or ‘show me your way
Don’t you leave me now
please, please stay’
At night in my bed, I’m going through the day
and all the rights and wrongs, and, hey
I’m finding myself in peace at your side
saying goodnight, night, night
All day

Longing
04:03
|
|||
|
I’m longing for Your love
I’m seeking Your heart
Your face I need to see
But some days I’m just not
able to go in
Too low to come to You
Though it’s You that I’m in need of
and I know You’re waiting
Your arms are opened wide
A smile on Your face
In everlasting love
You’ll meet me by grace
You know my every need
You know my weak, weak heart
Still there’s comfort in Your voice
when You say: ‘I love you’
I’m thirsty for Your love
My flesh, it longs for You
You’ll satisfy my soul
and it’s You, I cling to, I may
enter in Your presence
Hands lifted up
A blessing on my mind, my soul
will praise in silence

Song for orphans
04:06
|
|||
|
The cry of the orphan, cry of the abandoned
The cry of a child goes out like a spear
The cry of the broken, a cry of fear
goes out like a spear into the heart of love
‘Cause when a father, a mother, have forsaken you
God adopts you, he’ll adopt you as His child
When there’s no one on earth, who really cares for you
God will reach out, He will reach out
and bring you home into His heart
When you feel like the orphan, you feel abandoned
Just cry like a child, it goes out like a spear
When you’re broken, living in fear
Just send out your spear into the heart of love
God brings you home, He’ll bring you home
Home into His heart
A Father of orphans and to the abandoned,
His home is love
He’s a Father of outcasts and to the broken,
His home is love

The Lord, He is my shepherd
and I shall not want
He makes me lie down in green pastures
He leads me beside still waters
Restoring my soul in righteousness
for His sake, for His sake
Though I walk through the valley
of shadow of death
I fear no evil, for you are around
Your rod and your staff, they give comfort
You prepare a table for me
in the presence of the enemy
In the presence of the enemy
You anoint my head with oil
My cup runs over and over
Surely goodness and mercy will follow me
all the days of my life
And me, I’ll dwell in the house
of the Lord, forever
And me, I’ll dwell in the house
of the Lord, forever
Forever and ever, forever and ever
The Lord is my shepherd, forever and ever
Forever and ever

You and me
03:17
|
|||
|
And again it’s you and me
me and you alone
Not a friend, just you and me
me and you alone
The hardest days are best for growth
The most painful moments
you use to show me:
when there’s nothing left
nothing can distract me from you
And the deepest depths
and the highest hills
The most lonely moments
you use to draw me
and make me see that
you are the one to rely on
just you, only you
In the end, it’s you and me
me and you, alone
Not a friend, just you and me
me and you alone
You and me
We will stand, just you and me
me and you alone

Yeshua
06:36

Worthy, who’s worthy to open the
scroll and to loosen it ’s seven seals?
No one in heaven or on earth is able
to even have a peek
Behold, the Lion of the tribe
of Judah, David’s root
He has prevailed to open the scroll
and to loosen, to loosen it ’s seals
Yeshua, Yeshua, Yeshua, Yeshua
Out of every tribe and tongue, people,
nation, we’re redeemed by Your blood
You’ve made us kings
and queens to our God
and we will reign, we’ll reign on earth
Blessing, glory, honor, power
to Him on the Throne
And blessing, glory, honor, power
to His, to His Son:
Worthy is the Lamb of God
Lamb Who was slain for men
Worthy the Lion of Judah
He has prevailed, amen!
