Lyrics

This Moment In Time
Composed January, 2007

At this moment in time
Jesus' love, so divine
Reaches down, washes over me
Reaches down, washes over me

Can it be that the Lord above
Knows me by my name?
Can it be that the Son of God
Died to rake my place?
Can it be that this broken soul
Can somehow be made whole?
Can it be, can it be?

At this moment in time
I lift my hands, and close my eyes
And I am free, I am free again
I am free, I am free again

Amazing love, amazing grace
Jesus Christ took my place


Quiet Place
Composed June, 2004

This is my quiet place
This is my quiet place
And I meet You here
And I meet You here

And You are here with me
And You are here with me
And You are here with me, Lord

This is my freedom place
This is my freedom place
And I praise You here
And I praise You here

This is my painful place
This is my painful place
And I need You here
And I need You here


My Heart Is His
Composed December 31, 2001

The Lord is my refuge when times are hard
He takes my hand and is my guard
He is my stronghold and my defense
And He will lead me to righteousness

My heart is alive, my hands raised high
Thanks to my Lord I will never die
He will forever my portion be
My God, with whom I'll spend eternity

Shout for joy; my Savior lives!
Shout for joy; my heart is His!


Listen
Composed August, 2004

Listen, can you hear the prayer
Of hurting children everywhere?
All their hearts look here and there
Searching for someone to care

Can you hear their voices saying,
"Jesus hear my prayer"?
Can you feel the tears they're crying,
"Will someone just care?"

Listen, can you hear the cries
Of all the ones with broken lives?
Oh, how sorrowful their eyes
Soon their hopes and hearts will die

Listen, can you hear the sound
As Jesus whispers to them now?
Words of love felt all around
And in Him they can be found

And the rain falls down
The tears of the Father
And it's healing rain, it heals the pain

He said, "Come to me,
Let them come to me”


Declaration (Good To Me)
Composed December, 2005

May my life in the Lord be unceasing
May His praise consume my heart
May my spirit be warmed by His presence
And His fire, may it never depart

My heart is Yours, it’s Yours, my God
My soul is alive in Thee
My cup overflows with thanksgiving, my God
For You have been good to me
