In the secret, in the quiet place
In the stillness, You are there
In the secret, in the quiet hour I wait
Only for you, 'cause I want to know you more.

I want to know you
I want to hear your voice
I want to know you more
I want to touch you
I want to see your face
I want to know you more

In the secret, in the quiet place...

Music For Today

The pathway is broken
And The signs are unclear
And I don't know the reason
why You brought me here
But just because You love me the way that You do
I'm gonna walk through the valley
If You want me to

Cause I'm not who I was
When I took my first step
And I'm clinging to the promise
You're not through with me yet
so if all of these trials bring me closer to you
Then I will go through the fire
If You want me to

It may not be the way I would have chosen
When you lead me through a
world that's not my home
But You never said it would be easy
You only said I'd never go alone

So When the whole world turns against me
And I'm all by myself
And I can't hear You answer my cries for help
I'll remember the suffering
Your love put You through
And I will go through the valley
If You want me to

When I cross over Jordan,
I'm gonna sing, gonna shout
I'm gonna look into Your eyes and see
You never let me down
So take me on the pathway that
will lead me home to You
And I will walk through the valley
If You want me to

Yes, I will walk through the valley
If You want me to

hungry I come to You


for I know You satisfy

I am empty

but I know Your love does not run dry

and I wait

and I wait

so I wait for You

so I wait for You



I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for



broken I run to You

for Your arms are open wide

I am weary but I know Your touch restores my life

so I'll wait for You

so I'll wait for You



I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

Oh, I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for



and I wait for you

and I wait for you

and I wait for you

and I wait



I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for

Oh, I'm falling on my knees

offering all of me

Jesus, You're all this heart is living for



hungry I come to you,

for I know You satisfy

Give Me Your Eyes


By: Brandon Heath, Jason Ingram



Look down from a broken sky

Traced out by the city lights

My world from a mile high

Best seat in the house tonight



Touch down on the cold black top

Hold on for the sudden stop

Breath in the familiar shock

Of confusion and chaos



All those people going somewhere

Why have I never cared



Give me your eyes for just one second

Give me your eyes so I can see

Everything that I keep missing

Give me your love for humanity

Give me your arms for the broken hearted

The ones that are far beyond my reach

Give me you heart for the ones forgotten

Give me your eyes so I can see



Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah



Step out on a busy street

See a girl and our eyes meet

Does her best to smile at me

To hide what's underneath



There's a man just to her right

Too ashamed to tell his wife

He's out of work, He's buying time



Give me your eyes for just one second

Give me your eyes so I can see
Everything that I keep missing
Give me your love for humanity
Give me your arms for the broken hearted
The ones that are far beyond my reach
Give me you heart for the ones forgotten
Give me your eyes so I can see



I've been here a million times

A couple of million eyes

Just move and pass me by

I swear I never thought that I was wrong

I need a second glance

Give me a second chance

To see the way you've seen the people all along

What the Artist Has To Say: "I wrote a lot of songs for this new record. 'Give Me Your Eyes' was one of the first that really stuck out. I co-wrote it with Jason Ingram, and musically, it has a hip-hop flavor to it. The song was inspired from the idea that every once in a while, God gives us His eyes. You tend to see a lot of different kinds of people in places like airports. Sometimes, usually only for a few moments, I feel like God gives me true compassion for those people around me. I think that the longer I get to know the character of Jesus, the more compassion I personally have for others. 'Give Me Your Eyes' is saying; 'Jesus give me your eyes so that I can see people the way you see people, so I can love people the way you love people.' One of the core goals of my ministry is focused on striking up conversations about social injustices around the world and being a voice for those who have often been silenced by poverty or lack of influence. I want to challenge people more. 'Give Me Your Eyes' does that. It is one thing to have compassion and quite another to act on it. Most times, it starts with the people around you."

stolen from lane, memories from Wesley, heart of worship I desire

how deep the Father’s love for us
how vast beyond all measure
that He should give His only son
to make a wretch His treasure

how great the pain of searing loss
the Father turns His face away
as wounds which mar the chosen One
bring many sons to glory

behold the Man upon a cross
my sin upon His shoulders
ashamed i hear my mocking voice
call out among the scoffers

it was my sin that held Him there
until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
i know that it is finished

i will not boast in anything
no gifts, no power, no wisdom
but i will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection

why should i gain from His reward?
i cannot give an answer
but this i know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
