Eastern Promises
Verse 1
Sun shining on the sea
Wading through the waves
Washing me in warm waters from your shores
Fill my soul with your eastern promises
Let your tide rise to meet my western shore
Take the fire from your soul and set the sea ablaze
Let it light up… light up the night
Fill the sky with your flames
Chorus
Let it reach higher
Higher
Take me higher
Higher
Fill my mouth
With your eastern promises
Verse 2
You’re a pearl plundered from the sea
Your skin is warm Arabian sand
Stretched out before me
You’re a snake charmer
You've got me crawling on the floor
Hidden in splendor…shrouded in mystery
You’re the rhythm that moves me
Chorus
Take me higher
Higher
Move me higher
Higher
Clothe me
In your eastern promises
Bridge
I need a new revelation
Give me hope in my desperation
You’re a familiar place
In a foreign land
Let me find refuge
In your eastern arms
Teach me your ways…Teach me your ways
I won't seek my fate in the stars
Or put my trust in a crescent moon
I just need your eastern promises
I will believe in you…I believe in you
All I need is you
Chorus
You raise me higher
Higher
Lift me higher
Higher
Save me
With your eastern promises
Heaven and Earth
Verse 1
The sun… is burning out
One day it will go dark
You’re the light
That fills the sky
You’re the heat
That keeps me through the night
Chorus
Hold me tight
In your eyes
Heaven and earth collide
Hold me close
You take me higher
Beyond heaven and earth tonight
Verse 2
From the day I was born
I've been drowning in the sea
You’re the waves
Beating against my shore
You go out like the tide
Leave me begging for more
Chorus
Hold me tight
In your eyes
Heaven and earth collide
Hold me close
You take me higher
Beyond heaven and earth tonight
Bridge
I built my kingdom in the sand
I was swept away
By your hurricane
It’s hard for me to understand
Why this boy
Can never become a man
Verse 3
The universe is strung out
With a common thread
You align the stars
Like a string of pearls
You are the hope
That overcomes my world
Chorus
Hold me tight
In your eyes
Heaven and earth collide
Hold me close
You take me higher
Beyond heaven and earth tonight
Velocity
Verse 1
Colors flashing
Bodies crashing
You’re a whirlwind
Blowing through my mind
Take me higher
You’ve got me wired
Overflow my cup with your wine
Chorus
Velocity…
Take me faster than the speed of light
Velocity…
Don’t let go hold me tight
Velocity…
I’m lost in your slipstream tonight
Verse 2
Racing through your narrow streets
I’m on fire every time we meet
Send me into orbit
Roman candle lighting up the sky
You give me a rush
Taste your cherry red lush
Shooting for the stars in your eyes
Chorus
Velocity…
Take me faster than the speed of light
Velocity…
Don’t let go hold me tight
Velocity…
I’m lost in your slipstream tonight
Bridge
I’m burning up on re-entry
You've got me spinning around
Strung out like a vapor trail
I’m going down…I’m going down
Don’t let me hit the ground
I need your speed…I need your speed
You’re what I need
I’m a high wire flyer
Give me your velocity
Chorus
Velocity…
Take me faster than the speed of light
Velocity…
Don’t let go hold me tight
Velocity…
Find me in your slipstream tonight
You’re a Revolution
Verse 1
You’re a revolution in my soul
Burn down the old facade
There’s a new world coming
I've been listening to your propaganda
Chorus
You’re a revolution…you’re a revolution
Baby…deep in my soul
You take me captive…I’ll be your hostage
Verse 2
Turn my life upside down
Burn all my bridges and plunder my towns
Tear down every brick
Kick in all my doors
Chorus
You’re a revolution…you’re a revolution
Baby…deep in my soul
You take me captive…I’ll be your hostage
Verse 3
I’m waving a white flag
I’ll surrender to your will
Ransom me tonight
I pledge myself to your new world order
Chorus
You’re a revolution…you’re a revolution
Baby…deep in my soul
The End of the World
Verse 1
It’s the end of the world
Or haven’t you heard
It came in like a lion
But it’s going out like a Lamb
All the churches are panicked
But there’s no faith in the land
It’s not something to watch
You won’t see it on T.V.
But when it is over
The captives will be free
It’s the end of the world
Surely you've heard
There are signs in the sky
The media prophets gave us their word
The sun will grow dark
And the moon will turn red
The pious will rejoice
They won’t weep for the dead
It’s the end of the world
Do you know what I mean?
The Kingdom is coming
But it’s not what it seems
It doesn't’ have bombs or missiles and planes
It opens blind eyes and it heals the lame
It gives life to the dead
And it opens the graves
You’re the end of my world
Yes it is true
You appeared in the sky
With a glorious light
You raptured my soul
Like a thief in the night
You laid waste to the kingdoms of my past
What was first is now finally last
It’s the end of the world
It’s the end of the world
There’s nothing I can do
It’s the end of the world
Let me live forever with you
Here and Now
Tonight…tonight
Here and now
Stay with me tonight
If I could make the sun stand still in the sky
Change the flow of rivers and turn back the tide
Oh just so I could be with you tonight
Give up the future and its possibilities
Change the course of history
Just to be in your arms tonight
Turn my back on it all…turn my back on it all
What should I care?
If the sky tumbles and falls
Or the mountains melt away into the sea
Burn all my hopes and dreams
Oh…just to have you here with me
Here and now
Tonight…tonight
Tonight…tonight
Here and now
Stay with me tonight
If I could make the sun stand still in the sky
Change the flow of rivers and turn back the tide
Oh just so I could be with you tonight
Give up the future and its possibilities
Change the course of history
Just to be in your arms tonight
Turn my back on it all…turn my back on it all
What should I care?
If the sky tumbles and falls
Or the mountains melt away into the sea
Burn all my hopes and dreams
Oh…just to have you here with me
Here and now
Tonight…tonight
Radiance (you take away the sun)
Verse 1
A million stars fill the sky
But none of them shine like your eyes
Clothed in virtue and grace
Your beauty fills my soul with light
Turn my world upside down
Give me new realities
As the sky crashes to the ground
Shimmer and sparkle
Dance with delight
Everything I had lost
Is found in you tonight
Chorus
Radiance
You take away the sun
Every time you walk into the room
When I look into your eyes
You melt away the moon
You’re so radiant
Verse 2
I want to worship in your temple
Entering in on my hands and knees
Like a beggar at your feet
Mesmerize…hypnotize me
Show me the wonders of your mysteries
You turn the sun to ash
Make the moon a ball of wax
You turn my chaos into a symphony
From the center of the earth
To the edge of the universe
You are the poetry inside of me
Chorus
Radiance
You take away the sun
Every time you walk in the room
When I look into your eyes
You melt away the moon
You’re so radiant
Bridge
The oceans roar
And the nations rage
The mountains crumble
As the night begs for the day
Bring me to life…bring me to life
You raise me from the dead
Make me come alive
The stars go dark
The moon is running red
Soul…it’s your soul
It’s your soul
Soul….you’re so radiant
You’re so radiant
You’re so…
Come undone…you take away the sun
Radiance…you’re so radiant
High Love
Verse 1
Daybreak
Earthquake
You make my soul shake
Flood my heart like a river
Whisper in my ear
Secrets I want to hear
Illuminate my mind
Staring at the sun
Until I go blind
Chorus
High Love
Raise me up
To your higher love
Set me free
You’re the only place
I want to be
Far above
In your higher love
Verse 2
Show me colors
I’ve never seen
Take me places
No one has ever been
Higher than the sky
Deeper than the sea
Beyond everything that I can touch
Fill me with the beauty
Of your reality
Chorus
High Love
Raise me up
To your higher love
Set me free
You’re the only place
I want to be
Far above
In your higher love
Bridge
Shine your light
Transform me tonight
The sun rises
A thousand times in your eyes
Shed my skin
Where I end
You begin
My soul is a fire
Consumed with unearthly desire
Lift me up
Far above
To your high love
Give me your higher love
Hidden Grace
I traveled across the world
Searching for costly treasure
Precious gold and jewels
Eternal value beyond measure
Across the highest mountains and down to the valley below
Desperate to satisfy my soul
Empty handed I was losing hope
Until I tasted the charms of your soft embrace
And the wonders of your hidden grace
I was wandering through the desert
Following no particular road
Deaf, dumb and blind
I didn't know where to go
But you led me by the hand
Took me down to the stream
You gave me your sweet living water to drink
Gently washed my face
You gave me new eyes to see
You opened my heart and shared your hidden grace
Across the evening sky you blazed a trail
Leading me past the horizon chasing a comet’s tail
Free now of all the bonds that entangled and held me to the ground
Soaring past the stars
Take me to your higher place
Fill my soul with love divine
And the beauty of your hidden grace
