1. A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
doth seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,

You think I’d have it down by now
Been practicin’ for thirty years
I should have walked a thousand miles
So what am I still doin’ here
Reachin’ out for that same old piece of forbidden fruit
I slip and fall and I knock my halo loose
Somebody tell me what’s a boy supposed to do?

Come thou fount of every blessing
Tune my heart to sing Thy grace
Streams of mercy never ceasing
Call for songs of loudest praise.
Teach me some melodious sonnet
Sung by flaming tongues above.
Praise the mount
I'm fixed upon it

Weak and wounded sinner
Lost and left to die
O, raise your head, for love is passing by
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus
Come to Jesus and live!

Now your burden's lifted

A purple sky to close the day
I wade the surf where dolphins play
The taste of salt, the dance of waves
And my soul wells up with hallelujahs

A lightning flash, my pounding heart
A breaching whale, a shooting star
Give testimony that you are

Here come those eyes
There goes my ability to breathe
Those legs are walking her to me

Well, tell me I ain't dreaming

Here comes that smile
I can't even move, can't even blink

Oh Lord my God, when I in awesome wonder
Consider all the worlds Thy hands have made
I see the stars, I hear the rolling thunder
Thy power throughout the universe displayed

When Christ shall come with shout of acclamation
And take me home, what joy shall fill my heart
Then I shall bow in humble adoration

Can you see the moon tonight
Sugar-white perfection
Radiant beams of purest light
Our hearts' connection
Carries me back to a lullaby
The sweetest song in my memory
Of Mama's voice on moonlit nights
To hush her babies, singin'...

It Is Well With My Soul

When peace like a river, attendeth my way,
When sorrows like sea billows roll;
Whatever my lot, Thou hast taught me to know,
It is well, it is well, with my soul.

Refrain:

So go ahead and ask her
For happy ever after
'Cause nobody knows what's coming
So why not take a chance on loving
Come on, pour the glass and tempt me
Either half-full or half-empty
'Cause if it all comes down to flavor
The glass is tipping in my favor

Love, how did I find you'
Was I even breathing before I knew your name'
Who could ever have planned this'
Arranged a whole planet to all turn out this way.
Hey, only Heaven knows
The dreams behind these things I'm aksing
Even our angels look surprised
To bump their wings in passing

I can’t feel You movin’ inside
I don’t hear Your voice whisperin’ in the night
And I’ve never seen You with these eyes
Am I a fool, am I just a fool?
They ask how I follow what I can’t see
Why I trust in a love that my arms won’t reach
I don’t need You, don’t need You, to prove it to me
I’ll be a fool, yes I’ll be a fool

I heard about the day You went away
You said You had to go prepare a place
And even though I’ve never seen Your face
I’m missin’ You
I lie awake tonight and I watch the sky
And I wish it didn’t have to be so high
‘Cause I’m belonging on the other side
And I’m missin’ You

Nothin' can wash away my sin
Nothin' can wash away my sin
Nothin' can wash away my sin
Nothin', nothin'
Nothin' but the blood of Jesus

Nothin' can make the devil run
Nothin' can make the devil run

Pardon my dust, excuse the mess
we're making somethin' new out of all of this
I'm saying my prayers, and I'm trying to change
so give me some time, 'cause I'm still finding my way

Why are you lookin' at me this way?
pointing your finger, shakin' your head
how 'bout some love along the way, instead

Feel the sun in my eyes
Swat that clumsy fly
Woke me up from a dream about Heaven
Smellin' coffee downstairs
Yawn a quick little prayer
And get up at a quarter to seven

Mirror catches my stare

I would take no for an answer,
Just to know I heard you speak,
And I'm wondering why I've never,
Seen the signs they claim they see,
A lotta special revelations,
Meant for everybody but me,
Maybe I don't truly know You,
or maybe I just simply believe...

Last thing I remember, sayin bye to yesterday
Glad to see it over, pullin covers over my head
But what were You doin while I dreamt the night away
Cause I can tell that somethins different
and my eyes aint even open yet

Im smellin coffee

How far are you, how close am I
I know your words are true and I don't feel them inside
Still I believe you'll never leave
So where are you now

You're all I have, You're all I know
Your breath is breathing in my soul
Still I am gasping, aching, asking

The first thought through my sleepy head when I fell outta my bed is I
Hope the sky is grey I'm gonna write a sad song today.
So I make up my mind, slip on my shoes,
I'm gonna pick up a paper and read the news
Cause I'm sure to find enough blues to write my sad song
But when I open the door and the sun spills through
Takes away my breath and I think of you and the only blues to hit my eyes are those beautiful blues in the clear blue sky

Вы все улыбается и глупый разговор
А если в этот солнечный день пришел как раз для вас
Вы крутите ваши волосы, вы улыбаетесь, и ты отводишь глаз
C' mon, скажи мне, что такое право, с вами
Теперь меня осенило, вероятно, все talkin'
И здесь есть нечто, Что я должен реализовать
Потому что ваш секрет, и вселенной смеется над его шуткой на меня
Я просто поймал его в ваших глазах, то это прекрасный сюрприз

Chris Rice - When Did You Fall
From the album Amusing

You’re all smiles and silly conversation
As if this sunny day came just for you
You twist your hair, you smile and you turn your eyes away
C’mon, tell me what’s right with you
Now it dawns on me probably everybody’s talkin’

Великий Бог, коли на світ погляну,
І бачу все, що Ти створив в красі,
Як кожен квіт Тобі складає шану,
І як обняв любовю Ти усіх.

Тоді, Господь, мій дух співа Тобі:
Великий Ти великий Ти!

ВЕЛИКИЙ БОГ! когда на мир смотрю я,
На все, что Ты создал рукой Творца,
На всех существ, кого, Свой свет даруя,
Питаешь Ты с любовию Отца, -

Тогда поет мой дух, Господь, Тебе:
Как Ты велик, как Ты велик!
