Real love--True love to last for a lifetime
I fell head over heels for her
Tell me--Do ya think we could grow old together
Broken--She said that she loved another
Heartache--Feeling despised and rejected
Jesus--I heard you felt it, too
Perfect--She said her first love was higher
Jesus--Her perfect love--Is it You
Chorus
Oh if Jesus takes over the heart of your love
When it comes t...

Psalm 101:3/Matthew 6:22-23
I haven't seen it all but I've seen enough
Got some memories--Some I pray, one day, I'll forget
You wipe the vision clear and here it comes again
Try to hide your eyes 'cause you realize...it's sin
Chorus 1
Charmers from the left and right
They fight for my attention
"Hey-Hey, mister...look over here"
I've declared my stand...no
Chorus 2
I will set no e...

It's good to be lonely every now and again
To be parted from the ones you adore
To sit at a table for two all alone
And take a look at the world around you
At people with no one to go home to
Some with a place to belong
Others consumed by their weakness
And another when weak seems so strong
Chorus
Lord, let me be at peace wherever I am
Satisfied with all I have--A faithful friend

Claire Cloninger and Wayne Watson
Smile--Make 'em think you're happy
Lie--And say that things are fine
And hide that empty longing that you feel
Don't ever show it
Just keep your heart concealed
Why--Are the days so lonely
Where can a heart go free
And who will dry the tears that no one's seen
There must be someone
To share your silent dreams
Chorus
Caught like a leaf in the wind
Lookin' for a...

John 15:5/Psalm 73:25-26
I could live without You
I know I could get by
Millions of people do
Why couldn't I
I could live without You
Through the motions once again
Maybe even laugh and smile
Oblivious to sin
But why should I merely survive
Content with just being alive
The best life can offer
The world and its gold
Is nothing to the treasure of Your hold
I could live without You

Wayne Watson and Paul Mills
One thing I remember from the time I was a child
Rollin' off to Sunday school
There I'd learn about the Bible
Learn about the Lord
And I'd learn about the Golden Rule
"Write it down on your heart" they'd say
So when you're tried you're never caught of guard
And to this very day even when I go astray
I never wander off too far
Well, livin' in the '80s can be a little...
Wayne Watson and Phil Naish
Water into wine--Weeping into laughter
In another time--Another age
Healing of the blind--Stillness from disaster
Lookin for a sign--We turn the page
And the pressures of a reckless society
Are enough to make a strong man's knees go weak
And the questions from the masses
Filled with anxiety--Seem to be sayin'
You can hear them prayin'
Is there no harbor--Is there no...
Wayne Watson
Chorus
Jesus sings easy from my heart
Sweet from my soul
Jesus falls softer on my ear
Than others I know
Inscribed across my dark places
Or carved forever in stone
He seems to be most at home
Written deep in me
Jesus in neon or written across the skies
Sung out in praises--Whispered in lullabys
One thing we agree on
No other name can bring such calm
No other one more worthy to be ...
Wayne Watson
Pressure's on--I can't slow down
Got to make it--'fore the best years pass me by
Up before dawn--building my crown
In my own eyes it's a noble sacrifice
I spend my time
Tryin' to make a little hay
Before the sun stops shinin'
Chorus
Material magic
Got a spell on me
One more time
Pile it high
Save it up for a rainy day
For surprises--unexpected tragedy
Funny thing is
It can all blo...

Isaiah 29:13/Jeremiah 51:17-18/Exodus 20:3
My temple is built on wood and of stone
Each space is filled with the things that I own
Idols and gods that call me to bow
I try to be free but there's no freedom now...No freedom now
The ones I hold dear--Those most precious to me
Some days I set them afloat on an indifferent sea
And these things in first place--They're worth nothing at ...
Wayne Watson
Heavenly Father--Have You got a moment
There's something I don't understand
How from Your window--Watchin' Your children
You hold back the wrath of Your hand
Does Your window pane--Bear a lasting stain
That a sinful rain can't wash away
Chorus
His gaze always passes thru rose coloured glasses
Everytime He looks on my heart
And thru love's forgiveness
Thru purity's fire
I am my God...
Wayne Watson
I Corinthians 10:12/I Peter 2:21-22
I read the mornin' paper
To my surprise and shame
Said a black eye of embarrassment
Been attached to Jesus' name
Some mortal man convicted of some moldy moral sin
And the skeptics wage their tongues and say
"There goes that Jesus again"
The story graced the TV
And the magazines too long
And if my heart ain't broken yet
There must be somethin' wr...

Ephesians 5:15/I John 2:6/Philippians 4:11-12
There's a fine line
Between contentment and greed
Between the things that I want
And the things that I need
Between "enough is enough"
And where desires feed
It's a fine line
How do I live with so much
Here with the spoil of the blessed
And not abandon this boat
For the sea of excess
To aspire to great things
Yet be filled with humblen...
Wayne Watson
What shall we do with this Jesus
Out of control people screaming "crucify"
But they can't tell me why
What has He done--Name His transgression
Tell me His crime--That He should die
Sisters and brothers caught up in the hunger
Mothers and fathers quick to make claim for the blame
Who then is guilty--Who's gonna answer
Voices cry out demanding the shame
Chorus
Let the blood--Let the...

Psalm 139:7-12/Isaiah 50:2
A million dark alleys you can hide in
Dig a tunnel to the center of the earth
Convinced you've got nobody to confide in
Got you questioning the sum of what you're worth
People label you the black sheep of the family
Come collect upon your prodigal reward
Chorus
'Cause you can never outrun
Or go beyond the reaches
Of the long arm of the Lord
I've been ash...
Wayne Watson
There are watercolour ponies
On my refrigerator door
And the shape of something I don't really recognize
Brushed with careful little fingers
And put proudly on display
A reminded to us all of how time flies
Seems an endless mound of laundry
And a stairway laced with toys
Gives a blow by blow reminder of the war
That we fight for their well-being
For their greater understanding
To ...
Jeff Nelson
Galatians 2:20/Isaiah 43:1-3
How can we live in sin
Knowing he died to free us
>From the chains within our soul
Let us give the Lord control
Of all the things that quickly bind us
And walk no longer in darkness
We belong to Him--We belong to Him
Crucified right by His side
Bought with a price through one sacrifice
We belong to Him
Now is the time to understand
That sin has no reign...
Wayne Watson
Would I know You now if You walked into the room
If you stilled the crowd--If You light dispelled the gloom
And if I saw Your wounds--Touched Your thorn pierced brow
I wonder if I'd know You now
Would I know You now if You walked into this place
Would I cause You shame--Would my games be Your disgrace
Or would I worship You--Fall down upon my face
I wonder if I'd know You now
Or h...
