"Maybe Tomorrow" (Nouveaux)

"Heaven speaks a silent symphony
As Orion shines for me.
Are you there feelin' the same as I?
Wisperin' love songs to the lonely sky.
And though I don't know where you are,
I know you must be there.
So for now, 
I'll lay me down to sleep and dream,
and maybe tomorrow,

I'll kiss the air that covers you,
I'll watch the moonlight dance in your eyes,
I"ll hold you safely in my arms,
Maybe tomorrow, you'll be mine.

I said a prayer for you today,
May troubles be far away.
And I'll be here on bended knee,
Until the day you say you'll marry me.
And though I don't know who you are,
I know you're beautiful
So for now, 
I'll lay me down to sleep and dream,
and maybe tomorrow,

I'll be waiting patiently.
Promise you will wait for me.
Noone else to hold onto
Until I'm holding you."

"Two Are Better Than One" (Petra)

"I'll be there when you call,
Lift you up when you fall.
Two are better than one.
You will pray when I'm weak,
Help me back on my feet.
Two are better than one,
Two are better than one.

When I start to cross the line,
You just seem to read my mind.
And then you bust me,
Then turn around and trust me.
Come to the rescue.
I'll do the same for you."

"Faithful," by Mylon LeFevre

"Some people say
They think that absence makes
The heart grow fonder.
Well I don't know it that's true.
But I know that every time I start to wander
My heart cries for You.
My mind is finally settled
After searching high and low
'Cause deep inside I know 
that you are

Faithful, faithful
Keeping every promise You've made
Living in my broken heart
I know you came to stay
Because you are so faithful to me
And you love me so faithfully..."

"Give It Away" (Michael W. Smith)

"She asked him for forever, 
And a promise that would last.
He said, "Babe, you know I love you. 
But I can't commit to that." 
She said "Love isn't love, 
'Till you give it away." 
A father lived in silence, 
Saw his son become a man.
There was a distance felt between them, 
'Cause he could not understand,
That love isn't love, 
'Till you give it away.

As we live,
Moving side by side,
May we learn to give,
Learn to sacrifice.

We can entertain compassion
For a world in need of care. 
But the road of good intentions 
Doesn't lead to anywhere.
'Cause love isn't love, 
'Till you give it away."
 

'Stars,' by Parrish (detail)
 

"The Message" (4Him)

"If we all will work together
We can make this world a better
Place to live.
We can make a difference
If we try

To love a love that never fails
Love my neighbor as myself
And give until there
Is nothin' left to give..."

"Center of the Mark" (4Him)

"Draw back your bow,
Let love go.
Shoot straight for the heart.
With all of your might,
Set your sight
Take aim from the start.
To love God, love people,
That's the center of the mark."

"I Could Sing of Your Love Forever"
(Billy Sprague)

"I could sing of your love forever,
I could sing of your love forever.

Oh, I feel like dancing,
And it's foolishness, I know.
But, when the world has seen the light,
They will dance for joy, 
Like we're dancing, now..."

I could sing of your love forever,
I could sing of your love forever.
 Through the day, through the night,
'Til I'm outta breath, 'til I'm outta time,
I could sing..."

"Don't Be Afraid" (Avalon)

"There's a wall surrounding you
Love alone can make it through.
Caught up in the circle you drew.
And when your world starts tumblin' down
I'll pick the pieces off the ground.
I wanna be there for you..." 

"Let It Be Forever" (Avalon)

"In a world of broken hearts, 
Love is just a word
Used so often, what it means is blurred.
People grow so hungry 
For a love they can believe.
Will they find it here in you and me?

If you're gonna call it love,
Oh, then let it be forever,
Let it be forever.
Love has come from God
And in this love we share.
People see an image of Him there.
It can be an invitation 
That leads to deeper truth
The kind of love they find in me and you.

Oh, but we can be a withness
Right before their eyes.
A living love that's rooted in
The very love of Christ.

I don't know what this world 
May think of love,
Oh, but let our hearts remain true
To the notion that love
Goes beyond just emotion
Into faith, into hope, into trust..."

"Testify to Love" (Avalon)

"All the colors of the rainbow,
All the voices of the wind,
Every dream that reaches out,
Reaches out to find where love began.
Every word of every story,
Every star in every sky,
Every corner of creation lives to testify.

For as long as I shall live,
I will testify to love.
I'll be a witness in the silences
When words are not enough.
With every breath I take,
I'll give thanks to God, above.
For as long as I shall live,
I will testify to love...

From the mountains to the valleys,
From the rivers to the sea,
Every hand that reaches out,
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace,
Every simple act of mercy,
Every step to Kindom Come,
All the hope in every heart will
Speak what Love has done."

"I Will Be Here For You"
(Michael W. Smith)

 "When you feel the sunlight 
 Fade into the cold night, 
 Don't know where to turn, 
 You don't know where to turn. 
 And all the dreams you're dreaming 
 Seem to lose their meaning, 
 Let me in your world, 
 Let me in your world. 
 All you need is someone you can hold. 
 Don't be sad, 
 You're not alone. 

I will be here for you, 
Somewhere in the night, 
Somewhere in the night. 
I'll shine a light for you, 
Somewhere in the night. 
I'll be standing by. 
I will be here for you. 

In this world of strangers, 
Of cold unfriendly faces, 
There's someone you can trust, 
Someone you can trust.
I will be your shelter. 
I'll give you my shoulder. 
Just reach out for my love, 
Reach out for my love. 
Call my name, 
And my heart will hear. 
I'll be there, 
There's nothing to fear."

"Love Broke Through" (Keith Green)

Like a foolish dreamer
Trying to build a highway
To the sky,
All my hopes would come tumblin’ down
And I never knew just why.
Until today,
When You pulled away the clouds
That hung like curtains on my eyes.
I’ve been blind all these wasted years,
When I thought I was so wise.
But then You took me by surprise.

All my life I’ve been searching
For that crazy missing part,
And with one touch
You just rolled away
The stone that held my heart.
And now I see that the answer
Was as easy as just asking You in,
And I am so sure
I could never doubt
Your gentle touch again.
It’s like the power of the wind!

Like waking up from the longest dream
How real it seemed!
Until Your love broke through.
I’ve been lost in a fantasy
That blinded me,
Until Your love broke through!
