Just a boy with something in his heart
Says life doesn't add up
The dreams inside
Are telling him, seek and you will find

He caught a ride and he left this town
And he never came back around
Lord I miss him now
But he had to reach, to make sense of his world

Cause we are all searching for a savior
No one else will do
When the sky is calling you
Cause we are all searching for savior
No one else will do
When the sky is calling you

Another town a half world away
There's a child who just can't stay
Cause something else
Is calling her, to another place

She believes that nothing they could say
Would ever take away the pain
Of living life
Without knowing love, or amazing grace

Cause we are all searching for a savior
No one else will do
When the sky is calling you
Cause we are all searching for savior
No one else will do
When the sky is calling you

Something's missing from us all
Something's missing from us all

Cause we are all searching for a savior
No one else will do
When the sky is calling you
We are all searching for savior
No one else will do
Now the sky is calling you

Yeah

. . .


No, I don't understand and I can't comprehend
This power that draws me to You
But I know for the cross, I'll consider it all lost
In an effort to tell of the truth

That the world may know
That the world may know
You have been heaven sent to us

I'll be fearless for You
I'll be fearless for You
Take me, I'm Yours
I'll be fearless for You

All the times that I've failed
When my doubt has prevailed
These are the moments I'm giving to You

Because I can't be ashamed
No, I can't fear the pain
When it comes time to be living proof

So the world may see
That the captives are free
'Cause You have been heaven sent to us

I'll be fearless for You
I'll be fearless for You
Take me, I'm Yours
I'll be fearless for You

Unwilling to bend, unwilling to break
And headstrong I'll stand
No matter what it takes

Fearless for You
I'll be fearless for You
Take me, I'm Yours
I'm fearless for You, yeah, yeah, hey

. . .


It's written in your eyes
I can see the face you hide
It's getting harder every night
To want to be alive
Thinking thoughts inside your mind
Of leaving us all behind
Leaving us all behind

But you're not quite home yet
You're not quite through
It's not your time
He's got a plan for you
There's still a plan for you
It's everywhere you hide
'Cause the shadows follow you
You think you can't escape
But you're running anyway
And you're thoughts all break my heart
There's a chapter left to write
There's a chapter left to write

Won't you run, fly open up your lungs tonight, breathe freedom for the first time in your life
Won't you run, fly, open up your lungs tonight, breathe freedom for the first time in your life

. . .


I stand astounded by your unfailing love
your grace imparted it rings freedom in my soul
so i lift a voice to reach into the heavens
trying to find a way to say how much i love you

You spoke my world into existence
designed my mind and soul even knowing
that i would be the one to break your heart
but you sent your only son to be our savior
you sent the living king to be our servant
and bought me with a price i cant imagine
so i belong to you

so let the world crash down all around me
cause i'm not affected by all the words that they spew
i only live to sing, praises to my king
i only live to prove how much i adore you

Because
You spoke my world into existence
designed my mind and soul even knowing
that i would be the one to break your heart
but you sent your only son to be our savior
you sent the living king to be our servant
and brought me with a price i cant imagine
i belong to you

. . .


Crying on the inside and it cuts me deep
'Cause I know you're gonna smile when I fall
I can't help but feel the fear when I'm standing here
'Cause I know you're gonna laugh if I have to crawl

Can you see the desperation?
But you don't know my situation

'Cause I, I'm fighting to survive
Can't you see it in my eyes?
Please don't push me anymore
But I, I'm still fighting to believe
That there is hope for me
Somewhere beneath the very least of these

And I can't help but feel ashamed when I know the truth
That there was more than I surmised inside your heart
I want to make it go away but you bear the proof
My words burnt through your skin and left you scarred

I didn't see the desperation; somehow I didn't see your situation

Because I've been fighting to survive
I didn't see it in your eyes
But I won't hurt you anymore
And I, I'm fighting to believe
That there is hope for me
Somewhere beneath the least of these

. . .



You ought to know that I am here (near)
You ought to know I'll be here to love you
Just to love you
Through all the pain and through the years
I'll be the one to dry your tears
I love you, I love you
Because you're mine

Child of mine I know that you're hurting
And I've seen you try to soldier on
I am here to lift away your burden
And I will hold you till the pain is gone

So today I promise forever
Tomorrow I'll say it again
You would give it all to know the answers
And I know you've heard this all before
I'm just here to help your heart remember
That no one else could ever love you more

So today I promise forever
Tomorrow, I'll say it again

So don't you ever doubt
You are my precious child
my glory in the making
The years will bring you many trials
But I will never let you down

. . .


Walk blindly to the light, reach out for His hand
Don't ask any questions and don't try to understand
Open up your mind and then open up your heart
And you will see that you and me, we aren't very far apart

'Cause I believe that love is the answer
And I believe love will find a way
And I believe that love is the answer
I believe, ohh, love will find a way

Violence has spread worldwide and there's families in the streets
We sell drugs to children now, why can't we just see?
That all we do is eliminate our future with the things we do today
Money is our incentive now and that makes this okay

But I believe that love is the answer
And I believe love will find a way
And I believe that love is the answer
I believe, ohh, love will find a way, yeah

Another sign, now real sign

Walk blindly to the light, reach out for His hand
Don't ask any questions and don't try to understand

I believe that love is the answer
I believe that love will find a way
And I believe that love is the answer
I believe, ohh, that love will find, love will find a way
I know love will find a way, yeah

Jesus is the Answer for the world today
Above Him there's no other
Jesus is the way

Jesus is the Answer for the world today
Above Him there's no other
Jesus is the way

What's a boy supposed to see
When he's staring in the mirror at 13
Where's the man that he wants to be
He must be hiding behind the lies that he's too weak

I was there when they pushed you down
Wiped the blood from your knees when you got up off the ground

No one ever knew you the way I did
They never saw the man you'd be
When they laughed at the awkward kid
No on else believed that you could fly
They couldn't see the man you'd be
But it's wonderful to watch you rise
What could make a child a man (help him understand)
When he's looking at the scars that mar his gentle hands
Where's the mercy that he needs
It must be hiding behind the pain that they can't speak
(It must be hiding behind the cut that makes them bleed)

I was there when they pushed you down
Wiped the blood from your knees when you got up off the ground

I was there when they crowned you king
Wiped the blood from your feet when you hung from the tree

No one ever knew you the way I did
They never saw you in the child
As they laughed at his awkwardness
No one else believed that you could fly
They couldn't see the man you'd be
But it's wonderful to watch you rise

. . .


I brace my heart for the relapse
I'm waiting now for the shame
I've been somewhere and I won't go back again

I'm holding out for some mercy
I'm praying that you'll forgive
I've said something and I can't take it back again

I'm sorry now, now that it's over
You're world crashed down, and I ran for cover
I'm sorry now, now that it's over

How I wanted to show the way
So I pushed you aside I wanted to save the day, but I let you cry

How I stood there so silently
And let the moments pass by
I was too late to change the phrase and it crushed your life

I'm sorry now, now that it's over
You're world crashed down, and I ran for cover
I'm sorry now, now that it's over

We all want to lead but we're falling behind
Everyone wants to save themselves
We all want to lead but we're falling behind
Everyone wants to save themselves

. . .



I know what lives inside
When I hide far behind
The eyes that are so bright
Wanting our worlds to coincide
I know how much it costs
To fall prey, to be one lost
But I'll give my heart wholly
Even if I fall to the lies

I'll find peace with you again
When I'm holding out my sinful hands
Delivered and captured again
Though I was living like an empty man
You're washing me, while you're leading me home again

I know the soul of me
And everything that tempts me
So I guard my heart closely
I won't be falling for the lies

‘Cause I found peace with you again
When I was holding out my sinful hands
Delivered and captured again
Though I was living like an empty man
You're still teaching me, as your leading me to the end

But the world
Would love me to believe
That it revolves around me
I can finally see
That the world
Would love to captivate
A childlike heart that aches
To fill the empty space

But I've found peace with you again
Though I'm holding out my sinful hands
Delivered and captured again
Though I was living like an empty man

. . .


Can you believe, that all this time has passed us
And all we were has left us, wishing we were there again
We're all older now, but we still fall down and scrape our knees

Well I can't believe that all these lines keep getting deeper
I watch children become fathers as their mothers weep
And I can see somehow, that it's all about here and now
But I feel something rushing over me and I'm alive
I'm alive
I feel something rushing over me and I'm alive
I'm alive
Thank God I'm alive

You're speaking to me through the beauty of creation
from the highest elevation, to the depths of seas
So I'm not afraid to face this life of brevity

'Cause I feel something rushing over me and I'm alive
I'm alive
I feel something rushing over me and I'm alive
I'm alive
Thank God I'm alive

We're alive, to glorify
We're alive, to glorify
We're alive, to glorify, the maker of this life
We're alive, to glorify, the maker of this life
