BEAUTIFUL TIME
written by Stephen Gause/ Matt Stanfield
back
to list
The world is fast asleep and I am counting the stars
I can’t see how we wandered this far
It would be nice to move from this town
These big city nights are dragging me down
I see these stars are almost the same
The day the stars were specially made
And made like God intended to be
Like you and me falling in love
Ch
Life is not long enough just to live and die
Leaving all the reasons I could give to love you
Its a beautiful time to be alive
You and I through our own two eyes
Its a beautiful time to be alive
We hold this moment the moment is now
Run from this chaos where order is found
They say the sky is falling on us
A heart of survival the greater the love
Ch

COMING APART
written by Stephen Gause
back

Coming apart over you
I've been floating around on uncertain emotion
Riding the tide with a lack of devotion
My mind is a cloud but this voice is so loud
When will I finally see
See its not about me
It says that loves not a feeling
It gives without reason
All my reasons will end and I will see you again
And I will love you like I know I should
Love you like I said I would
Love me if you think you could
Ch
Coming apart at the seams
Don't know what it means to be free 'til we're almost broken
Coming apart at the seams
Its like finding our dreams at the end
When it all was over
Coming apart over you
Taking these chances afraid of the falling
Looking for questions with answers revolving
The summer is over I feel so much older
Like this coming of age like the light in your face
And I will love you like I know I should
Love you like I said I would
Love me if you think you could
Ch
I'm coming apart I'm losing apart of me each time I break your heart
This love meant to be and we're meant to be
The magic between you and I is once a lifetime
Ch

SO MUCH MORE
written by Stephen Gause/ Matt Stanfield
back
to list
I’m
trying to be all I can be
I know the phrase is so old
But I can see the good that’s in me
Seems to take me so long
And what I want is not what I need
I know its so overused
Buts its true the good that's in me
Is coming from You
Ch
Why do I complain when all the things You’ve ever done for me
Are more than anything that I deserve
Why do I continue to pull against Your ways because Your ways
Are so much more than I deserve
I thought that growing up I would change
Nothings changed but my age
Standing here I see You're the same
Like You were yesterday
Tomorrow I will make more mistakes
And all the words I will say
Tomorrow won’t remember today
And You will love me
Ch
I grab hold of my freedom and I run a while
All is well until I felt the need to fly
I let go of my senses try to make my own
I always try and fail to try and walk alone
But You are there
Ch
SON AGAIN
written by Stephen Gause/Gregg Scott (arrangement inspired by Shawn
Stroope and Greg Scott)
back

If you want to see this world going down in flames with a face
to blame
Then by all means please sign your name
But take your soapbox when you go
I think I finally see that the hope of love is the hope in me
And by all means see that life is good
And by all means move on
Ch
Don’t it feel good to be in the light
Don’t it feel good to be in the son again
Don’t it feel good to be out of the night
We would be blind
We’re given so much world given so much life not some big surprise
When the sun comes out in the here and now
It don’t seem so bad this time
Ch
Come please walk in the son my friend
Don’t have to be the end, leave tonight
God made all that's inside of you
All that's surrounding you simplify
The son has come

DIVINE
written by Stephen Gause
back
to list
She breaths and I fight to catch my breath
Believe me I long for no one else
She smiles and her world invades my eyes
My heart still orbits high in her skies
But see what she doesn’t know
I am so afraid to show
Only by the hands of God will the walls fall
This love confined its divine
Ch
She gives me life and a love that completes who I am
And when time makes her mine
All the searching will end
Be my lover my friend
Its divine
I’ve found in her hand a gentle touch
I fear that I feel too much
I pray for a peace of mind
Cause she’s all I see forever by my side
Its divine
Ch
Ch
Where two make one let no man come between this love
Its divine
GODSPEED
written by Stephen Gause

Take a breath breathe a sigh
Know that time can change all the rules
I build my home cheer my team
This American dream is too big to be swallowed
Nine to five pay my dues
Pull me through this year spend it all if I want to
Drive my Benzes join the club
Fall in love with a trophy and smile as she curtseys
Run while you can save yourself
Ch
Godspeed if we can make it out of here alive
Godspeed I think we’re almost in the clear my friend
Party line vote for me
Are they politicians or arguing monkeys
All the same Dow is fine
Market’s up over nine points to moral decline
Run while you can save yourself
Ch
Godspeed if we can make it out of here alive
Godspeed I think we’re almost in the clear my friend
Godspeed if we can bend to break this mold cause its getting old
And we’ve found a better way
The real world ain’t on the TV screen
If we live this lie modern fantasy
If goes to my head then I lose my dreams
Reality is God and love simplicity and we’ll all be fine
Ch
LET GO
written by Stephen Gause

>
We settle for less we don’t see what is out there
I say to myself will this come to an end
This reason and wrong impeccable timing
Just carry my own I don’t know where to begin
Leave the way that I know leave to God he is out there
He’s closer to me I can feel it tonight
This city moves on it’s beauty is frightening
I throw up my hands and I know I’m alive
Ch
To let go of these feelings stop fighting for reasons
Let go and believe this will end
To let go and to know that I’m older and wiser
I’m younger and I will begin
To let go and to begin
See the way we live life take you’re all or your nothing
This night sky is clear and I know I was wrong
Cause the way to live life is to dive into living
There’s grace in the air no I’m not here alone
Ch
God take this from me see its not what I need
It took time to believe it took time on my knees

COVER
written by Stephen Gause/ Sarah Jahn
back
to list
I saw you coming but I couldn't risk it
I want to tell you something
But I couldn’t find my keys
My heart is palpitating and I can’t stand it
If you only knew if you only
Ch
You do something girl
I’ve been watching you from a distance
Cause I might stutter
If I would speak to you, you would see right through
I might blow my cover, cover, cover
I’m tired of hiding what I’m really feeling
I want to tell you something
But I can’t control my knees
My mind is contemplating and I can’t take this
If you only knew if you only
Ch
If you only knew the truth
That I want to be with you
You see me looking you’re walking to me
I want to take off running
But you had to speak to me
My words are serenading and now I’ve done it
See its only you see its only
Ch
TRUTH
written by Stephen Gause
back
to list
We’re craving a little more life
Waiting on our guiding light
Our world’s working overtime
Believing that we’re doing right
Philosophy of sole existence
Calamity of what we’re missing
Freedom of the open minded
Tell me if you ever find it at all
Ch
Cause the truth that we seek is hard to find
Cause this truth is not found inside our mind
Then I hear you say you love me
And you see I try to love you
But can we say that love is freedom
Or is there something more we’re needing to be
Ch
And to leave your mind and to trust your heart
To believe your soul holds the smallest part
Of a greater mind of a greater love
Of a greater power not seen or heard
Ch
CHARMING LITTLE ORPHAN
written by Stephen Gause & Ryan McMillen
back
to list
She left the room tonight with charming eyes
Eluding her desires with tainted smiles
We talked only a while about love and life
But in that broken hour her words conveyed
That time had left a shell of hope
She saw her lovers change but learned that people don’t
She’s tired of fighting love only to rise and fall
She’ll carry all she can and keep her head of tall
Ch
She’s a charming little orphan
Denying what is real
She’ll make it on her own
As long as no one lets her feel
The face she wears is so surreal
And she wears it well
Charming little orphan never tells
But driving home tonight I fear the worst
Her words burned through my mind and for what its worth
I pray she’ll come to know she’s not alone
But easy said or done when you’re on your own
Cause life ain’t fair but learn that life goes on
You see her broken heart but don’t you look too long
Cause she’ll be gone she won’t get hurt again
Try to be strong but don’t let nobody in
Ch
If I could tell her now that God is all she needs
Its not cliché its not the false religion
I feel it every day
And graciously sufficiently He’s calling out her name
Ch
RIDE
written by Stephen Gause
back
to list
I’m smiling as you’re walking by my way
Hoping that this time you’re here to stay
Can it be there’s nothing left to say
For love to be so blind it found its way
We ride on we ride on
It seems that maybe you’ll forgive me yet
Can you still remember I forget
But what I know is I am here with you
I hope we stick around enjoy the view
We ride on we ride on
Ch
Cause we cried 'til our river’s running dry
And we wondered with questions we ask why
It hurt so bad we live and learn
That to be alive is to take our turn
And we ride life moves on it don’t slow down
Maybe we can leave this place behind
Drive with no condition change our mind
Forget about who’s wrong and who is right
Forget about this rain it will subside
We ride on we ride on
Ch
Driving through this rain I realize
That love ain’t always feeling good inside
But we can choose to love the way we know
We can choose to take love as we go
Ch
Cause we cried till our river’s running dry
And we wondered with questions we ask why
It hurt so bad we live and learn
That to be alive is to take our turn
And we ride life moves on I’ll love you
Ride life moves on you’ll love me
Ride we move on it don’t slow down
NEVER KNOWN
written by Stephen Gause

If you leave this way
See I won't try to make you stay
Your words ring clear
A way to hide your fears
But relying on your heart is like relying on an empty well
Nobody left to fill you up nothing’s ever good enough
But you’re drinking to your death
Trying to find your well of life
But you gotta live a life that's new
You gotta change your point of view
Ch
Cause this love you’ve never known
I pray in time your eyes will see
That this love you’ve never known
Is so much more than you can be
A wandering heart
Its cold and its empty where you are
You carry the blame
And sit here in all your shame
But relying on your heart is like relying on an empty well
Nobody left to fill you up nothing’s ever good enough
But you’re drinking to your death
Trying to find your well of life
But you gotta live a life that's new
You gotta change your point of view
Ch
This love is a life
This love is a sacrifice to you
The grace that you feel
Believe in a God that's real
But relying on your heart is like relying on an empty well
Nobody left to fill you up nothing’s ever good enough
But you’re drinking to your death
Trying to find your well of life
But you gotta live a life that's new
You gotta change your point of view
Ch
INSIDE OUT
written by Stephen Gause
back

When I’m left alone with the time to think clearly
And my fears are gone cause I know that you hear me
And I walk on my own this strength I am finding
This love that will carry me through
And its good to be home cause I’ve run for so long now
The mercy you’ve shown as I've cried on my way down
The grace I have known so endlessly flowing
With power that's saving my soul
Ch
And to walk with life that is new
And to give my praise unto you
And to breath a song of worship to you
And to see the world the way that you do
Lord grace abounds what's lost is found
Lord change my heart from the inside out
Until all that they see is your grace
I let go of myself such freedom in knowing
I need nothing else but the reasons you’re showing
To smile once again this joy overflowing
Your love is beyond my control
Ch
Lord change us now from the inside out
Until all they see is your grace
