Burning Bridges


Here I go again burning bridges
HE goes around saving the world
I can’t seem to get anything right
And HE still gave IT ALL for me!

Then there’s the world fighting for their self-made gods
Arrogant and self-absorbed they are
Me, myself and I became their ‘trinity’
And they marvel and boast that they’ve come so far

Here I go again burning bridges
HE goes around saving the world
I can’t seem to get anything right
And HE still gave IT ALL for me!

So don’t conform to this world, transform
By the renewal of your mind
Turn in horror from the wickedness
Hold fast to that WHICH IS GOD

Meanwhile there was a MAN, washing the feet
Of men discussing who was greatest among them
Just dropped to his knees, cleans the sin and filth
ALL in his final hours on the earth

Here I go again burning bridges
HE goes around saving the world
I can’t seem to get anything right
And HE still gave IT ALL for me!

For years I would search somewhere else
Through mountains and valleys, in the dark
Not ever knowing how blind I’d become
Until the day HE brought me to the light

Here I go again burning bridges
HE goes around saving the world
I can’t seem to get anything right
And HE still gave IT ALL for me!

So don’t conform to this world, transform
By the renewal of your mind
Turn in horror from the wickedness
Hold fast to that WHICH IS GOD

Meanwhile there was a MAN, washing the feet
Of men discussing who was greatest among them
Just dropped to his knees, cleans the sin and filth
ALL in his final hours on the earth

Here I go again burning bridges
HE goes around saving the world
I can’t seem to get anything right
And HE still gave IT ALL for me!

From the world’s fear and its lies, we would search somewhere else
Through mountains and valleys, in the dark
Not believing how blind we were, transformed
WE are ALL together in HIS LIGHT

Here I go again burning bridges
HE goes around saving the world
When we feel we can’t get anything right
He gave it ALL for US!

Building bridges through me

The Mouse that Wanted to Fly


Warmed by the sun, coming off the horizon
Not a care in the world, gonna spread my wings
Might be shaking for a moment, I’ll soon be free, I’ll soon be free

In my dreams, I’m flying free
I look down to see who’s carrying me, who’s carrying me

My village prays for a safe return as I form my wings
I say to them it will be all right, when I’m home with The King

Eternally, I am flying free
I look down to see who’s carrying me
The breeze catches me, between the blue and green
Suddenly, I am free, flying fearlessly
On the wings of an eagle, blessed trinity

I’m flying free, I look down to see who’s carrying me
The breeze catches me, between the blue and green
I am free, I am free

This mouse is free indeed
No matter what’s behind me, my faith gives me wings
I soar like an eagle, and my spirit sings!

Signs


The first that I met you, you’d think I’d stick around
But I guess I had better things to do
Always doing the things the hard way to the beat of my own drum
A chip on my shoulder and something more to prove

The second time you came to me, the sand almost gone
My world had come crashing in as I was checking out
So you took me under your wings, said it will be ok
And for the first time in my life I hadn’t any doubt

Jesus, Jesus
You’re my hope
You’re my strength
Rouse my faith
Light the way

You think after that I would have caught on
Maybe realize there’s a better way
The scars that are left, tear stains that are real
The dark and desperation alone here I am

You bless me again with a miracle, I don’t understand
Thinking I’m useless, you’ve shown up again and again
You brought light to the darkness
You brought/led me through my storms–haven’t left me yet

I will forever serve you–you’ve always been with me.
You have been faithful–over and over
Though I wasn’t ready, you patiently stood there
And lit the darkness when there was no way out
