Title: The Real Jesus

Jesus on the radio, Jesus on a late night show
Jesus in a dream, looking all serene
Jesus on a steeple, Jesus in the Gallup poll
Jesus has His very own brand of rock and roll

Watched Him on the silver screen
Bought the action figurine
But Jesus is the only name that makes you flinch

Oh, can anybody show me the real Jesus?
Oh, let Your love unveil the mystery of the real Jesus

Jesus started something new
Jesus coined a phrase or two
Jesus split the line at the turning point of time
Jesus sparked a controversy
Jesus, known for His mercy, gave a man his sight
Jesus isn't white

Jesus loves the children, holds the lambs
Jesus prays a lot
Jesus has distinguishing marks on His hands

If anybody walks behind the Good Shepherd
If anybody holds the hands that heal lepers
And if you recognize the eyes that see forever, please...

Jesus, Jesus
Oh, can anybody show me Jesus
Oh, let Your love unveil the glory, the real Jesus

Oh, can anybody show me the real Jesus?
Oh, let Your love unveil the glory of the real Jesus, the real Jesus

[Scribe D'Nucov]

I am solo in this world of water
Only the tip of a sunrise visible
Like the morning light in a little girl's eyes
I crave this freedom
I find it only in this little ship
Just my soul and this bread and buttler
I am comfortable

But there is a treason at sea
Is it me?
It is a wonder, supernatural cover of war
The dark ones who eternal in damnation grow
Set about me now
How they whine and crow
I am solo In this world of wet
And bittler is my temperament
I close the door to sentiment
And I relish all my youth

I realize that I am doomed
Fear of love and fear of you
But you give me the keys to paradise
It is you who sympathize
You and your perfection grow
I am cradled in your ocean's throw
I crave your freedom in this little ship
For you alone can chart my trip
And like these waves I lose my grip
And I sink into your arms

[Treason at Sea, DC Talk, Supernatural Album]

Title: What It's Like

In my life all the strife is getting in the way
Frankly I did not plan on getting hurt today
From Your chair in the clouds
Benevolent are Your ways
While the beggar bleeds, the children play
Everyone wants to know why
Isn't it always the question?
How do You know my condition?
You came down to me to know what it's like
To know what it's like to hurt
You came down to me to know what it's like
To know just what it's like to
Be me, to be us
(To be one with the dust and to be lost)
(To be one with the dust and to be lost... to be found)

In the wake of the last decades and centuries past
Who's to blame for this mess?
And who's gonna take the rap?
We're quick to judge and discard
A God who lets you choose whom and what to love
Isn't it always the question?
Do You really know my position?

You know what it's like to thirst, to bleed
You know what it's like

Title: Audience of One

I come on my knees, to lay down before You,
bringing all that I am, longing only to know You,
seeking Your face and not only Your Hand,
I find You embracing me, just as I am.

And I lift these songs to You and You alone
as I sing to You in my praises make Your home.

To my audience of one, Your are Father and You are Son
As your Spirit flows free, let it find within me
a heart that beats to praise You
and now just to know You more, has become my great reward
to see Your Kingdom come and Your will be done
I only desire to be Yours, Lord.

So what could I bring, to honour Your majesty
what song could I sing, to impress the heart of royalty
when all that I have, is the life that You've given me
so Lord let me live for You, this song with humility,

And Lord as the love song of my life is played
I have one desire, to bring Glory to Your Name.

[Bob B]

The Desparation Band is one of my favorite worship groups, Here in your presence is a song that reminds me that it is all about Him and not about me.

[christopher lingk]

This song really touches my heart and makes me think about what is truly important in this world.

[Roxliverpoolfan]

This song I love it is called Beautiful One

[felixpadua]

you've just heard it. lol. God bless you always.

[Ginnybee]

This was not written for the purpose of church worship, but I love it because the song is so intensely heart felt by the artist and by all who listen--especially if they know the story behind it. Here, I'll share..(by Eric Clapton)

[lynne]

WHO AM I? by CASTING CROWNS. Amazing words - the first line goes who am i that the Lord of all the earth should care to know my name, should care to feel my hurt. It really speaks to my heart about the real and amazing love our God has for us. its on my page if you'd like to visit and listen. God bless, lynne.

[Roxliverpoolfan]

this is my favourite christian song

I cannot tell why He whom angels worship
Should set His love upon the sons of men
Or why, as shepherd, He should seek the
wanderers
To bring them back, they know not how
or when
But this I know, that He was born of Mary
When Bethlehem's manger was His only
home
And that He lived at Nazareth and
laboured
And so the Saviour, Saviour of the world
is come.

I cannot tell how silently He suffered
As with His peace He graced this place
of tears
Or how His heart upon the cross was
broken
The crown of pain to three and thirty
years
But this I know, He heals the
broken-hearted
And stays our sin and calms our lurking
fear
And lifts the burden from the heavy
laden
For yet the Saviour, Saviour of the world
is here.

I cannot tell how all the lands shall
worship
When at His bidding every storm is stilled
Or who can say how great the jubilation
When all the hearts of men with love
are filled
But this I know, the skies will thrill with
rapture
And myriad, myriad human voices sing
And earth to heaven, and heaven to
earth will answer
At last the Saviour, Saviour of the world
is King!
