Be Still 03:51
I’ve heard a bit about you But I still don’t know what’s true Do you make the rain Can you, calm the storms Oh what, oh what am I to you? If you are who you say you are I’ll come runnin If you show me you’re real If you are who you say you are I’ll come runnin But for now I’ll be still They say you’re powerful And they’ve seen miracles And then they tell me, you know my name Oh what, oh what am I to you? Cause sometimes the waves are so wild Sometimes the storm is inside What if I were caught in the tide? Would you come and make it quiet? If you are who you say you are I’ll come runnin If you show me you’re real If you are who you say you are I’ll come runnin If you are who you say you are I’ll come runnin If you show me you’re real If you are who you say you are I’ll come running, Oh oh! But If I can’t see you Lord I just don’t know If this heart can trust that you would make it whole And I’ve got questions I’m not sure you see But God if you are there, help me believe.. in... you.... I’ve heard a bit about you But I still don’t know what’s true I wanna believe that, you can save me But Jesus what am i to you?

Zacchaeus 03:34
You were just passing through my home town I’d only heard of You I climbed the highest tree that I could find Just to see You But I was hiding I hope that you don’t know much about me I’m no good Don’t trust me I just came to get a glimpse of You Then I’ll leave You, I swear Then from the crowd You called my name (hey-ey) You must be making some mistake but then You said “Come down from where you’re hiding Cause I know everything Let all your walls come crumbling I choose you, come with me” I used to feel like a waste of space If I’m being honest I’ve been wrong, I know that I’ve messed up And I expected to be punished But from the crowd You called my name I thought You had made a mistake But then You said “Come down from where you’re hiding Cause I know everything Let all your walls come crumbling I choose you, come with me Forget about your past, now & Leave everything behind Cause I’ve got plans for you And I choose you so come with me” I’m not gonna waste any time Won’t look back for nothing You see, I’ve waited all my life for a hope and A meaning From the crowd You called my name And said that it was no mistake

You're Mine 04:41
Take all your pictures and find within the grain, where I have signed my name Look in the mirror The curves upon your face Are not there by mistake And I know that you don’t think its true That I see so much beauty in you But I’ll fight for you darling, believe That there’s no one who loves you like me You’re mine You’re my masterpiece You’re mine You’re a part of me You’re mine I made your heart, its my fine art I know you And all your scars, your broken heart What you feel, I feel it too, and I ache with you This world is twisted, And its beat you down Its turned us around But I’ve defeated All your fears, and I’m waiting here And I’ll fight for you darling, believe That there’s no one who loves you like me You’re mine You’re my masterpiece You’re mine You’re a part of me You’re mine I made your heart, its my fine art Love, there’s nothing I would not do To be close to you To be by your side I gave my life You’re mine You’re my masterpiece You’re mine You’re a part of me You’re mine I made your heart, its my fine art

The Rain 04:01
Its all gotten A bit hazy I can’t remember when the rain started But its been coming down for years I keep thinking maybe It will let up But after so long I’ve given up the gun It keeps comin.. I can’t do This alone I‘ve tried everything I know I can’t stop the rain I can’t stop the rain Its aright if you Go on without me My inside’s aren’t right See I’ve been bleeding It’s been this way 12 whole years Just let me reach for A miracle, they say he’s got healing Strong enough for me…. But I can’t do this alone I’ve tried everything I know I can’t stop the rain I can’t stop the rain I can’t stop the pain I can’t I can’t stop the rain Touched the edge of the great truth Just the hem and I’m made new I’ve waited years for the one who Who can stop the rain You have healed my pain I can’t do this alone I tried everything I know I can’t stop the rain I can’t stop the rain I can’t stop the rain Only You can stop....... the rain

VERSE 1: There’s a table being set There’s a host standing by Looking over every chair With the kindest eyes PRE: Y’can’t earn your place here Just have to believe That you are a child Who’s loved by the king CHORUS: Welcome to the feast for failures Home for hopeless cases Come and taste the wine for the weary & The Bread that’ll make your heart new The table is set for you VERSE 2: If you’re hungry …For some mercy And for goodness that never ends Come on in here, where You belong You’ll find peace and his friends (PRE) (CHORUS) BRIDGE: Pull up a chair If you feel unworthy This table is yours, rest assured All the rejected and humbled on the earth The King will seat you first last pre: No need to be perfect You can’t earn your seat Cause You are forgiven Set free by the King

I'm Yours 05:29
You who are beauty itself how'd you find it in me? Filling my lungs up with breath So that I can sing Your story don't make no sense cause this love is so deep I break your heart once again then you reach out for me…for me I am nothing… and you're everything and you gave everything for me When I try to wrap my mind around you I am spinning like the earth Beauty that bursts at the seams of the Universe All of your glory came down inside a baby boy Only to die on a tree In my place, and with joy… joy I am nothing… and you're everything and you gave everything for me Hallelujah I'm yours Hallelujah hallelujah ( do it loud and ascending ) So this time its me calling out your name like a melody Somehow you know my name, too, and you call me "Free" If you make all things new well please take this broken soul And hold my heart inside your hands Until it turns to Gold chorus now I am something cause you're everything and you gave everything for me hallelujah I'm yours

about

I once heard it said that "Christianity is not a country club for the qualified, it is a feast for failures" and that is the spirit I intended to share through this project. These songs reveal the processes of different individuals in the New Testament, all invited to feast at the table of the King.
