Letter From My Father - Song Lyrics
How`ve you been son
Heard life`s not been well
Are you reading My word
Or are you trapped in your shell
Come step off your path
And walk with me on mine.
Things that are so tough
Will work out just fine
All you need is some faith
And you just need my will
Then your path will be straight
I`ll be waiting until.........
Chorus:
I`ll wait til you find me
I`m not very far
Just open your heart
And reach up to the stars
If you want to believe
It`s all just a dream
But it is much more simple
Than you think that it seems
I remember back when
I was betrayed by my friend
And everyone thought
I had come to an end
It was where I began
It was part of my plan
And I love you so much
I am the Son of Man
Chorus X 1
My words of truth
They will not deceive
Come walk on my water
I will make you believe
So please take my hand son
I will give you much more
Than you`re life ever gave you
Just walk through my door
Chorus X 2

Walk Through Fire
(howe/thomas)
I used to see those red tail lights, heading for another town
And wish that I was on my way
Looking back on these summer nights, wasting time, fooling round
And there was nothing here to make me stay
But that night I met you, the night you came through made me realise
Theres no way I can leave, you made me believe
And now when I look in your eyes
Chorus:
I could walk through fire, I can feel it burning
And I could walk through fire, (to get) right back to you
And as the flames get higher, you know Ill get stronger
Baby I could walk through fire
Its crazy how these things work out, I used to think I had no chance
And I somehow thought youd slip away
You pulled me through the fear and doubt, gave me all Im looking for
Everything I needed to stay
How could something so good, something so simple, get serious
How could someone so right come into my life, and now I just want you to
Know
Chorus:
I could walk through fire, I can feel it burning
And I could walk through fire, (to get) right back to you
And as the flames get higher, you know Ill get stronger
Baby I could walk through fire
And I would go anywhere, I would do anything, I do what you want me to
You know that I would, I want you to know this, whenever you need me
Ooh wherever you are, no matter how far, you know Ill be coming for you
Chorus:
I could walk through fire, I can feel it burning
And I could walk through fire, (to get) right back to you
And as the flames get higher, you know Ill get stronger
Baby I could walk through fire
Baby I could walk through fire, right back to you
And I could walk through fire, and I could walk through fire
And I could walk through fire, right back to you, yeah

Walk Like A Man
Man, the fights they had
He'd cover up his ears
He thought, "big boys don't cry"
Fought back all the tears
Mama'd use her makeup
To hide the bruises on her face
In the morning they'd pretend
That there'd never ever
Been a trace
His old man woke him up
To help him find the car
Take the bus uptown
Outside some run-down bar
Swore that he was quitting
And then he'd start to cry
And though the boy knew the truth
Sometimes he'd still believe that lie
[chorus]
When the sins of the father
Are the sins of the son
All you do is crawl
When you wanna run
But God gave boys their mamas
Cause they always see their promise
And they help them understand
How to walk like a man, walk like a man
They moved a lot of places
They never settled down
It got pretty old, being the new kid in town
He'd always tell his friends, "My daddy's sick today"
Said, he'd be rich if he had a nickel every time
He heard his mama say
[chorus]
The sins of the father
Are the sins of the son
Crawl before you walk boy
Walk before you run
Come on, stand up straight
I'm proud of you
Take my hand, I know you can
Walk like a man, walk like a man
Your daddy's demons are callin' your name
Don't you listen to them, cause they got no claim
Temptation may come, that ain't no sin
You get stronger everytime that you don't give in
The sins of the father
Are the sins of the son
You can't undo what has been done
You'll have to retrace his footsteps through the sand
And pray you'll find the love of a girl
And take her by the hand
And walk on
Walk like a man

Walk On

Oh aint life wonderful
When everything is right
But sometimes wonderful
Can fall apart sometimes
When your troubles knock you down
Pick yourself up off the ground and
Chorus:
Walk on
Walk on
Nothing ever stays wrong that long
Walk on
Oh walk on
Dont just stand there in the storm
Walk toward the light till you find the sun
And youll be better off in the long run
And walk on
Oh its a heartache when love comes to an end
But even though your heart breaks
You know its gonna mend
Keep the faith right through goodbye
And dont you ever break your stride

Ill Be Around
Words & music: michael w. smith and bob farrell
Hey boy - did you find out
Whatcha had to know - n what its all about
When you started to move - just a step at a time
You never wanted to fall
You took a chance on the wild side
Hey, girl - cantcha come down
Are ya way at the top - afraid of somethin you found
Then you try to go back - not as easy to do
Did you find who you are
From a dance on the wild side
I know sometimes its hard for you
To keep your feet upon the path that youve chosen
Its not for you to walk alone
Together we can take this road where its going - hang on
Chorus 1:
Stand by me - stand right here
The time has come to say it clear
Now dont give up - but dont give in
We will stand together to the end
And Ill be around - Ill be around, yeah
No joke - the sooner you find
It happens all the same - for every mothers child
When you walk in the dark - then you stumble and fall
Its a part of it all
When we dance on the wild side
But everybody needs someone
Who loves em through the toughest times - while theyre growing - yah
Who keeps a candle burning
When the darkness covers up the path where theyre going - hang on
Chorus 2:
Stand by me - stand right here
The time has come to say it clear
Now dont give up - dont give in
We will stand together to the end
And Ill be around - come what may
Heaven hears us when we pray
So dont give up - but dont give in
We will stand together to the end
I will be there, my good friend
And Ill be around
Be around, Ill be around...
Ill walk this road with you
Wherever it may wind
And Ill be around

As God as my witness
I will carry this through
Till death do us part, I promise to you

And start a family with you, baby

Im Up
Words & music:mike hudson and michael w. smith
I am holding to the joy of my salvation
I am glad to have a life that always grows
And if the word of God is any indication
I am doing even better than I know
I am doing even better than I know
Theres a joy that even people of the world find
In every good and perfect gift the father sends
So I thank the lord that I was born the first time
But I thank him more that I was born again
Oh, I thank him more that I was born again
Chorus:
I am up
Like the sun is up
I can feel my life on a rise
I am up
Like the stars at night
I get up on bein alive
I am up
Like the lord is up
And my life is filled with his life
I was freed and I am saved
I am up
I am up
There are times life is so fine I cant contain it
Everywhere I look I see what God had done
And I dont have to work and worry to sustain it
When I walk with God his joy will always come
When I walk with God his joy will always come

A Way
Words & music: gary chapman, tim marsh, and michael w. smith
Caught in a dream of where I want to be
Wrapped in a web of where I am
I feel a wall between what is and what should be
You find me waiting for a miracle
You hear me praying for a plan
You are the only one prepared to rescue me
Chorus:
Then you take away the distance
Found between the truth and me
And you give a simple reason to my restless rhyme
Whoa, hide me in the heaven
You have held within your hand
And make a way to find a way to soothe my mind
There is a way that might seem right to me
A dim reflection of whats good
Just an illusion of the best that I can be
But theres another path you offer me
I wish I always understood
Some way you see right through my thoughts
And know my needs

Swingin Doors
(chapin hartford/bobby boyd/jim foster)
You have worn a path
Right up to my heart
You come in for a while but you dont stay
And Ive come to realize
That your promises are lies
To buy you time when you want to get away
Chorus:
You must think my heart has swingin doors
The way that you keep comin back and forth
I can feel its getting close to closing time
And I wont be leavin my heart open any more
Well, Ive heard youre back in town
I suppose youll come around
When nights are cold and friends are hard to find
You always seem to wait
til all the pieces are in place
Then you walk back in and rearrange my life

So if youre walking down my street just keep on walking by
Im hangin out a sign sayin this well has run dry

song - Back To Galloway
Back to Galloway
If you’ll come with me, I’ll go back
To where the River Luce falls blue
Through glens of Hazel to the sea
Where my heart lies and yours lies too
If you’ll go with me, I’ll go too
To sit and watch the Fulmars soar
Beyond the cliff towards the sun
Beyond the horn that roars no more
If you’ll come with me, I won’t wait
The Lost Road reaches all the way
Through all we’ve known, through all we’ve shared
And we must walk that way again
(chorus)
We’re going back to Galloway
Back to the simple life we knew
When we were young and love was true
We’re going home to Galloway
If you went with me, I would stay
Amongst her cliffs and glens so free
Or walk the sands of Ardwell Bay
Until the sun sets over me
If you’ll stay with me, I won’t leave
I dream that some day we might share
A humble cottage by the sea
Where we can sit and watch the waves
If you could come, I know you would
To walk beneath the stars we knew
To see the sights we loved back then
When we were young and love was true
(chorus)
I’m going back to Galloway
Back to the simple life we knew
I’m going back to Galloway
I’m going home to wait for you

Run, Run, Run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run
Well baby, better take my advice
A black cat crossed your path twice
The moon came out next to the 1
Then you opened your umbrella in a room
Chorus:
You better run, run, run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run
Run, run, run
Well you aint the luckiest girl I know
And you wont get luckier the way youre going
Your horseshoes rusty and your mirrors cracked
You walk under ladders then you walk right back
(chorus)
When you dropped that little pin
Never thought what a mess itd get you in
Little pin, little pin, bring me luck
Because I stopped to pick you up
(chorus)
Well now, little girl, Im helping you
I hope you believe what I say is true
Whenever you run, Ill be running too
Whenever you run, Ill be following you

Chasin The Wind
Did the best I could
To make you mine
If you ever felt anything for me
Well, you never gave a sign
Thought time would make you change
Make you want me
But baby I never had a chance
Now I know that theres just some things
Just not meant to be
(chorus)
No use
Making you care about me
No way
That Im gonna win
Oh darlin
I might as well be
Chasin the wind
Oh, Im just
Chasin the wind
Opened up my heart
Let you inside
If love was what you were lookin for
Well, I guess it wasnt mine
So I guess I better go
Its over and done
But you know Im not really sad at all
cause you cant really say its over
When it never had begun
(chorus)
Cant reach the sea
If you cant get past the sand
Cant touch the sky
If you cant reach up your hand
Cant give if you give nothing back

Anything Is Possible
I know that you've been thinking
I see it in your eyes
You're holding on to something
But still you don't know why
So walk by faith and not by what you see (not by what you see)
Trust your heart and let yourself believe
CHORUS
I can do things, things you never knew
Change your world, make it all brand new
I can do miracles if you want me too
Anything is possible for you
Anything, anything, anything, anything is possible
(Repeat)
I know your heart's been broken
You feel so all alone
But I will never leave you lonely
I'll never let you go
So walk by faith and not by what you see
It's up to you to let your heart believe
Chorus
If I can make the Heavens
IF I can make it rain
If I can make your heart beat
Then I can ease your pain
If I'm the only answer, the only one that's right
Tell me why are you still searching?
Why do you still fight?
When I can do

A New Love
(dave loggins)
Loves the only thing I know in this life
Thats cut me deeper than the sharpest knife
And once again here I am and Im paying the price for a new love
I still hurt the one I lost
Standing here on a bridge that I cant get across
And I cant burn but I will when I walk with a new love
Chorus:
I believe
Its gonna be better then ever before
Thats why Im looking for
A new love
For this old heart
A new love
And I just cant wait to start
I wanna feel that way again
Oh when I find a new love
For this old heart of mine
Say Im looking for a new love
Somebody tell me where I find a new love
For this old heart of mine
Loves the only thing thats ever made me cry
Nothings ever made me feel more alive
Thats why once again here I am
Looking for the eyes of a new love
I know that somewhere in this world tonight
Theres a guy (she goes high on this part and I have no clue what she
Says)
Id even look if I thought I might find a new love
Repeat chorus x2
Oh Im looking for a new love
For this old heart of mine
Oh Im looking for a new love
For this old heart of mine
Say I need a new love
For this old heart of mine
Oh Im looking for a new love
Somebody tell me where Ill find
For this old heart of mine

Here In My Heart
I keep on thinkin' I should be free
This time just leave it alone
With 17 reasons not to believe
Nothin' goes everybody knows like you always want it to be
But, here in my heart
There's a dream that's unbroken
And it get's in my way
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart the door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life (oohh oo-oo-ooh)
What I've been feelin' I can't explain
Lost in the muse of your eyes
An' I'm fallin' so hard
Just like the rain
Comes a time when ya cross the line and you know you got to believe
'Cos here in my heart
There's a dream that's unbroken
An' it gets in my way
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart the door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
I know!
(That) I may never sleep again
'Till I see you (ooh oo-oo-ooh)
Oh, baby, I know (I know!)
Life is too short and I can't pretend
It's not about you (not about you)
Can't do without you
wooo oo-oo-ooh
Here in my heart
There's a dream that's unbroken
And it get's in my way (gets in my way)
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart (here in my heart)
The door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
There's a dream that's unbroken
It gets in my way
But it won't be denied
Here in my heart (here in my heart)
The door is still open
Waiting for you to walk into my life
In my life (in my life)
In my life (in my life

Dont Walk Away
Cant believe were standing here
Saying that were leaving
While holding back the tears
I remember everything weve shared
Through all the years
Why does it have to end this way
Is this the bitter pill
That we have to take
And now weve come this far
Is this the price we pay
Can we win it back again
Chorus:
So dont walk away
We can save our love
If we just keep the faith
Lets turn the tide, before its too late
Dont let it go, dont walk away
Sometimes we dont see eye to eye
And in the past, we may have danced a little out of time
And after all the different roads weve walked together
Lets make it right
Lets start tonight
Chorus
All it takes is understanding
The answers right there in our hearts
We can reach a new horizon
If we keep the hope alive
And all the things will turn out right

More Than You Know
I know you walk around this life without hope
Just tryin' to figure out a way you can cope, well
You do so many things to escape your fears that you will never make it,
You'll always have to fake being happy
I know the truth you can believe it or not
There's a way out of this way of living,
But your trust must be giving willingly
Someone to rescue you from all your disgrace
Who will show you all his mercy, love and grace
Chorus:
More Than You Know,
More than you could ever dream
There's so much more,
Waiting for you than it seems
If you'll only believe
I know you wonder what your life's all about
When it comes to your future, you have your doubts
There's only one who can make you feel secure
Who will lead you through this life,
(Where you'll spend eternity you can be sure)
You think the only heaven you'll ever know
Is the little bit of blue sky you see when your troubles seem to go for a
little while
There's a lasting pleasure, a fuller measure...of joy and peace
When you look inside and know you've been set free

Remember The Alamo
Girl you were always my yellow rose
And I was your one lone star
We always said
Together til death do us part
We had a love bigger than texas
Where is that feeling now
Its taken some hits and some losses but its fighting on
And standing somehow
Chorus:
Remember the man who asked for your hand
In the moonlight of san antone
There by the mission you let your position be known
That you loved me so
Dont forget where it started
Remember the alamo
I think we can hold on and make it together
If we remember when
And get back to love
The way that it was back then
When we were hopeless romantics needing each other
Willing to take a chance
We strolled and we talked down the ol river walk
To the heart of where it began

Don't Let Her Get Away

Man, it's gonna come undone
Don't wait another minute

To walk all over you

Mine Again
I remember when you used to be mine
Way back when
I was too naive to love you right
But now if I only had the opportunity
I would do anything
Because my heart still believes
[chorus]
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life
It's irrelevant to dwell on the past
I'm accountable for what went bad
And I mean that
But I keep on praying for another chance
Just to have you back
Cause I've grown
And I know how to be your everything
[chorus]
Maybe you could be mind again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Maybe we could bring it back to life
No, no it ain't over yet
I just can't accept the possibility
We weren't made for each other's arms
I know you're my destiny
We can't erase what was meant to be
Part of you and part of me
If we try one more time
Maybe somehow we'll survive
Maybe you could be mine again
Maybe we could make that dream for real
Like way back then
When love was yours and mine
Boy maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back
Maybe we could bring it back to...
Life
Maybe you could be mine

Things just aint the same
But deep down inside I know you still care
So tell me what to do to get things back
