Battle
There’s a battle within myself,
Lord help me to lose,
Through my loss, I will find myself,
I’d rather this than to lose you.
Am I just blind, am I a fool?
Why can’t I see it and not perceive it?
Lord help me to understand,
Why your ways are so true.
So take this world from me,
The Christ it’s you I seek,
Let me not forget,
The times you were there for me.
So there’s this battle within myself,
This time I think I’ll win,
Oh Lord, lead me to the battle,
Victorious I’ll be.
So take this world from me,
The Christ it’s you I seek,
May your name be glorified,
So others will see,
So others will see.
Before and After
At times like these I try,
To mend it all inside,
By my own I keep falling down aside.
When my worlds collide,
Feel like giving up the fight,
Surrounded by the dark I try to hide.
You are near me now,
You are dear to me,
You are all I need,
You’re everything to me.
The scarlet snow turns white,
All the stains are made bright,
So take my hand and show me the way.
The crimson rose nailed tight,
Forgiven, now I know why,
I’ll put my cross now, I’m here to stay.
Never leave my side,
Precious one of mine,
I’ll give you all of me,
I am yours to keep.
Remind me of the times,
Your gracious plans are made right,
In my life you restore my faith.
When things seemed to have gone wrong,
I’ll put my trust in you,
Magnify your faithfulness.
Fill me with your love,
Find myself in you,
And I will follow you,
Jesus Christ my Lord, my Lord.

You Are
When the grass withers and the flowers fall,
And the wind blows and the whirlwind sweeps away,
My glory’s all gone, gone with your breath,
You are the one I fear.
Surely I am like a drop in a bucket,
Nothing more than dust on scales,
Lift up my eyes, who made the skies?
You are the one I revere.
Do you not know? Have you not heard? Has it not been told?
You sit above all, above the earth and all enthroned,
To whom shall I compare to you?
You are my only hope.
When I’m tired and weak and out of breath,
It is you that I shall find new strength,
And I will soar, high like the eagles,
You are the one I trust.
You are the everlasting one,
The creator of all the earth,
Incomparable strength and with great power,
And I will soar with you.

In Your Name
It was that time,
When I went mine mine mine,
Unsatisfied,
without you in my whole life,
Now looking back,
At all the silly things that I regret,
Now you’re with me,
Show me the way, let your will be done,
It’s your love that satisfies,
No other, that makes me smile,
Compel us, with the love of Christ,
In your name, in your name, in your name.
I stand here before you,
Obedience is your delight,
In your name I will,
Tell everyone what you’ve done in my life.

My Heart Undone
Hear me now, my praise to You,
Humbly seek, to worship You,
I quiet my soul, I still my voice,
I bow before, my heart undone.
I close my eyes, begin to think,
The sacrifice, for saving me,
Amazing love was, truly free,
Glory to the Lord and King.
I love you, I need you
I want you, I adore you.
-Danny
