Mountains To Climb
Verse 1:
It seems I've always yearned for, more than I deserve.
One thing then another, my masters I have served.
I've made a choice at every road, which way I would turn,
I had Mountains to Climb and Bridges to Burn.
Chorus:
Mountains to Climb, Bridges to Burn
making decisions in life here on Earth.
My final days I hope and pray the Lord will hear these words,
I had Mountains to Climb and Bridges to Burn
Verse 2:
Each of us will have regrets for things we do or say,
The blood of Christ and Grace of God will wash our sins away.
Until we reach that final day and kneel beneath His thrown,
we'll have Mountains to Climb and Bridges to Burn.
Chorus 2:
Mountains to Climb, Bridges to Burn.
Held by the Shackles of life here on Earth
Until we reach that final day and kneel beneath His thrown,
There'll be Mountains to climb and Bridges to burn.

Live it in Me
Verse 1:
Life can get you down, turn you all around.
Chill you to the bone, leave you all alone, I know.
Things don't Go as planned, more and more demands,
need a friend to call, someone who can break the fall!
It's your life, Lord live it in me.
PreChorus 1:
I don't need a million dollars, just need a plan to follow,
Lord lead me.
Don't even know the answer, to things that really matter,
Lord teach me.
It's your life, Lord live it in me.
Chorus:
Live it in me. Fill the emptiness inside of me.
Live it in me. Let living water flow all over me.
It's your Life. Lord live it in me.
PreChorus 2:
Take away all my distractions, give me a plan of action,
Lord use me.
Take away my contradiction, give me a new conviction
Lord choose me.
It's your life. Lord live it in me.
Chorus:
Live it in me. Fill the emptiness inside of me.
Live it in me. Let living water flow inside of me.
It's your Life. Lord live it in me.

I Just Need You
Verse 1:
I don't need a fancy car,
Armani suits or fine cigars.
Showing off to the other guys,
Just ain't my style.
I was raised on the simple life,
and I'm amazed by the morning's light.
Girl it's you that I can't live without,
you make it all worthwhile.
Chorus:
I just need you,
like flowers need the morning dew.
Like rainbows need the rain,
a song needs to be sang,
I Just need You.
Verse 2:
Not a part of high society,
I don't go out for notoriety.
Keeping up with the Jones,
don't mean a thing to me.
I was raised the simple way,
honest days for honest pay.
I know it's you that I can't live without,
you mean the world to me.
Repeat Chorus:

Change Me
Verse:
Caught the news the other day, Amazed at what I'd seen.
Babies snatched, students killed, a car chase on TV.
The world is such a hateful place, not like it used to be,
Not safe at work or home, or walking down the street.
Chorus:
You stepped into that cave and brought Lazarus to his feet.
Raised your hand one stormy night and calmed a raging sea.
I know there is a plan and it's not left up to me.
If You can't change the world I'm living in...Change Me.
Verse:
I recall a different time, not so long ago.
Sunday school, prayer in school, and chores for us to do.
Friends stopped by to pass the time and visit for a while,
respect for all your neighbors, and friendship was in style.
Chorus:
You stepped into that cave and brought Lazarus to his feet.
Raised your hand one stormy night and calmed a raging sea.
I know there is a plan and it's not left up to me.
If You can't change the world I'm living in...Change Me.
Bridge:
Make me the kind of man I know you wanted me to be.
With gentle strength to live the words in John verse 3:16
Chorus:
You stepped into that cave and brought Lazarus to his feet.
Raised your hand one stormy night and calmed a raging sea.
I know there is a plan and it's not left up to me.
If You can't change the world I'm living in...Change Me.

Teach us How to Love Again
Verse:
Tonight, all I ask is your indulgence.
Hear me out and I know you'll understand.
It's not for me I make this humble argument,
for you've blessed me more than I can understand.
Verse:
I see the wold around us filled with evil,
people torn between what's right and what's wrong.
Life's rules that used to be so very simple,
now get confused, we forget where we belong.
Chorus:
Father teach us how to love again.
To love our wives, love our kids, say a prayer and act like men.
To recognize each other in a world wrapped up in sin
Father teach us how to love again.
Verse:
Time has dimmed my sight but cleared my vision.
I can see You always had a plan.
The world's now in a great division,
but the ones You love, You're holding in your hand.
Chorus:
Father teach us how to love again.
To love our wives, love our kids, say a prayer and act like men.
To recognize each other in a world wrapped up in sin
Father teach us how to love again.
