WALK AGAIN WITH GOD

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – I stood disgraced with downcast face, covered in fruitless sweat

The crushing load, the balance owed on my ancestral debt

V2 – Leaves from the trees that were diseased fashioned my covering

Yet guiltless skin covered the sin with robes fit for a king, with robes fit for a king

V3 – Men’s brows still wet, their faces set to tame the stubborn sod

Yet none the worse for Adam’s curse, I walk again with God

Tag – I walk again with God, I walk again with God

CALLING ALL SAINTS

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – We are royalty, we are the fragrance of heaven,

We are the salt of the earth, we are the light

We are united, the same blood covers our sin

And we walk with God again, we are in Christ

Bridge – Renew your mind and be transformed

In Christ you died, to new life you’ve been born

Chorus – Calling all saints, rise up and join the holy race

Why so downcast? He’s the lifter of your head

His banner is love and His glory shines on your face

A lost world awaits, Jesus is calling all saints

V2 – So why do you listen to the accuser of the brethren

All the while our Shepherd beckons, do you hear His voice?

So let God be true, and let your mind be renewed,

All his fullness dwells in you, it’s time to rejoice! (chorus, solo over chorus)

Bridge 2 – Renew your mind and be transformed

In Christ you died, to new life you’ve been born

Renew your mind and be transformed

In Christ you died, to new life you’ve been born (chorus)

LET ME HIDE

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – Aching for rest tonight on a floor of stone

The swords of my enemies chased me far from home

All those who’ve pledged their love have left my side

Your oil of anointing on my head has dried

Pre-Chorus 1- From the end of the earth I call with fainting heart,

From the end of the earth I call with fainting heart, I call, I call…let me hide

V2 – Take up thy rod and staff and comfort me

Lead me to green pastures and grant me sleep

May those who pursue me make their search in vain

I have your call on me and I call on your name

Pre-Chorus 2- From the end of the earth I call with fainting heart,

From the end of the earth I call with fainting heart, I call, I call…

Chorus – Let me hide (let me hide myself in thee)

In the tower (in the tower of your strength)

In the shadow (in the shadow of your wings I hide) I hide myself in thee

Bridge – Still my hope is in you, you have remained faithful (you will remain faithful)

All my hope is in you, you have remained faithful (you will remain faithful)

All my hope is in you, you have remained faithful (faithful) faithful

(solo, then pre-chorus 2 and chorus)

I SING OF HOME

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – Rootless as a tumbleweed my humor has run dry

I roll across the plains until I hit a fence, it makes more sense

To think that home is where I’ve never been, where I’ve never been

V2 – I headed for the west until I came into the east

I searched a hemisphere or two then three and four, my feet were sore

And still I did not find a place to rest, I found no place to rest

Chorus – So I sing of home, home, I sing of home

I sing as one who looks beyond the day all days are done

When days turn into one

Bridge 1 – And while this body burns and aches and yearns beneath the sun

And trembles ‘neath the moon, redemption’s coming soon

And ‘til I make my home with You, You’ve left eternity to make Your home with me

You’ve made Your home with me

Bridge 2 – Now all my fences are gone, now I have freedom to roam where you take me

No longer guided by stone, no longer walking alone but in step with You

And I’ll ask Your kingdom to come, I’ll seek Your will to be done through this clay body

Since now Your purpose is mine, the heavy-laden to find and lead to You

V3 – I’ll walk the ground beneath me ‘til it’s me beneath the ground

And when that day arrives then I will say, “I’m on my way to where

I’ll see and know You as I’m known, in my forever home”

(repeat Chorus)

PEACE BE STILL

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – Young night blue, light of heaven shines on me, this day of fullness comes to close

I’m staring down fears that the darkness makes me see

While the rest of the world lies in repose

V2 – Thoughts of not yet, and the thoughts of days before,

Sleep seems to stay a dream away

My mind is a boat and I’m straining at the oars

Through a tempest that keeps your peace at bay

Pre-chorus – Oh, the wind and the waves (the wind blows and the waters rise)

The wind and the waves (they salt my tears and they blind my eyes)

But you’ve told me to go (I go and I am going on Your word) speak, Lord

Chorus – Peace, be still, I Am, I Am, peace, be still, I Am, I Am, I Am

V3 – You’ve lifted me up as a city on a hill, a candle to shine on through the dark

And I have been sent like an arrow from your bow,

And You are not one to miss Your mark (pre-chorus and chorus)

Bridge – My body is Your temple, my life is Your throne,

Your law is on my mind, my heart, not on condemning stone

Your Spirit lives within me, Your touch comes through my hand

And with Your words, and in Your name I say

Chorus 2 – Peace, be still, I am because You are, peace, be still, I am because

You are I Am (repeat)

AS I LAY ME DOWN

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – My soul, my soul will be satisfied by You

My soul, my soul will be satisfied by You

Pre-chorus – And You I’ll praise, I’ll sing to you with joyful lips

And meditate on You in the watches of the night

And sing in the shadow of Your wings, I will sing in the shadow of Your wings

Chorus – As I lay me down, I will remember You, I will think of You for You are my help

My soul clings to You, Your right hand holds me up, I will sing to You for You are my help

V2 – I thirst for You in a dry and weary land

I thirst for You in a dry and weary land

Pre-chorus – And You I’ll praise, I’ll sing to you with joyful lips

And meditate on You in the watches of the night

And sing in the shadow of Your wings, I will sing in the shadow of Your wings

Chorus – As I lay me down, I will remember You, I will think of You for You are my help

My soul clings to You, Your right hand holds me up, I will sing to You for You are my help

Tag – I sing to You, You are my help, I sing to You, You are my help

I sing to You, You are my help, I sing to You

A DOVE ON DISTANT OAKS

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – Blameless because You have cleansed me, chainless the shackles are gone

Shameless in telling the story, I know that you’re for me, You’ve said it and shown me

(1st time only) Over and over and over (over and over) over and over (over and over)

V2 – Tireless in how You pursued me, ceaseless in singing my song

Fearless because of Your love, I know that You’re for me, You’ve said it and shown me

Bridge – Like a dove on distant oaks, I’ve flown to You,

I’ve hurried to my place of shelter from the tempest and the storm I rest in You, in You

Chorus – In You, the righteous stand and are sustained

So I put my trust in You

The depths of love have been contained

So I find my place in You

(repeat song, then solo over bridge pattern, repeat chorus)

ARMS OF JESUS (ROCKY’S SONG)

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1- You were already sunk when I met you

A vessel wrecked and in the depths of Divine love

You in Him and He in you

You had a much brighter view of our Father

You took me in, left me with Him and Divine love

Now my view is brighter, too

Chorus – What a ride you took us on, you carried us to solid ground

Then you were gone, back from where you came

to the arms, to the arms of Jesus

V2 – With the days you were given you were faithful

You sowed your seed, a harvest reaped a hundred fold

And your branches bore much fruit

When the sea rose and turned we were not ready

But you fixed your gaze, a song of praise was on your lips

His Holy Spirit walked you through (repeat chorus)

Bridge – On the waves of salt and sound you carved your name

In the hearts of lost and found you left His grace

Through your song, and through your laugh, through your embrace

You crowned our heads so we would walk like kings

(instrumental break, then chorus)

TEARS IN A BOTTLE

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1- Looking up at the mountaintop again, in the valley of the shadow I stand

I’m hungry and I want to taste the feast

That You’ve prepared in the presence of my enemies

Pre-chorus – But I’m counting it, counting it all, I’m counting it all joy

Yes I count it joy ‘cause I’m counting on You, Lord

Chorus – You put my tears in a bottle and mix Your sweetness in

You bring the fruit of Your Spirit as my hurt and Your joy blend

And time will tell, as time has told

I’ll raise a toast and drink to Your goodness, and Your favor, and Your mercy

Your sweet salvation, Lord

And You fill my cup as You fill me up, You fill me up again

V2 – You have filled my lungs with breath

You have delivered my soul from death

You have caused me to walk in Your light

So my feet will not stumble in the dead of night (repeat chorus)

Bridge – Every promise finds its amen in You

Every promise is yes and amen in You (2X)

MADE RIGHT

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1- I was born with a curse on my head and a debt I could never pay

I was afraid of the blinding darkness and more afraid of the judgement day

Death was alive inside me, my throat was an open grave

I was a prisoner to my desires, I was my master and my own slave

Chorus – But I heard (I know, back when) the Son of God was lifted up

To draw all men to Him, Jesus is the way to life for all to enter in

By the love of God, I walk in the light

So I want to sing my song of joy and hope to let the whole world know

That all my chains are gone and sin and death no longer have control

By the blood of God, I have been made right

V2 – Then I brought slavery to my new freedom, I was working to earn my grace
And when the Son shone down upon me, I felt that I could not show my face
Sometimes the dead man came back to haunt me,
Sometimes I gave him a place to stay, so deep inside was a pile of dead man’s bones
And on the outside a white-washed grave (chorus, then solo over chorus pattern)

V3 – When I stopped looking at my unsightliness and looked instead at the eyes of love
Those eyes regarded me as righteous once I was covered by God’s blood
So now I walk as a man forgiven, and I wait with faith like a child,
And I mount up on wings as eagles since to my God I’ve been reconciled (chorus)

Tag- By the blood of God, by the love of God,

By the blood of God I have been made right

CROWN

words and music by Chuck Elmore copyright 2010

V1 – May the snares that you’ve stepped in fall open,

May the wounds there not leave any scars

The affection that you’ve long been chasing, may you realize it’s already yours

V2 – May you not offer sweat for redemption

May you instead accept Divine blood

May the stones that are thrown turn to water and bury you under the flood

Chorus 1 -You may go down with covering in tatters,

You may go down abused and forlorn

You will rise as a child of your Father, you will rise up renewed and reborn

V3 – May the lies you have bought start to crumble

May regret and remorse disappear

Let the fear and the hopelessness tremble, and your light cause the darkness to clear

V4 – May you run to the souls who once shunned you

To the captives in chains deep inside

May you show them their locks have been broken

May you open their prison doors wide

Chorus 2 – You will proclaim the news of His favor, you will carry a name of renown

May your hands raise up those who are downcast and your head bear the weight of a crown

May your head bear the weight of a crown, You’re the King’s child, put on your crown
