In you I find everything, but in my mind I'm empty and everything is failing. All I see is you. Standing in the darkness over my shameful progress. Worth nothing but pain and heartache. All I see is you.
Return! Return! The light returns!
Return! Return! Your child returns!
Everything is broken. Your light will show the way and you rebuild the pieces. Your life, your son, the way. See the distance, I'm coming. You were never far. The prodical son returns. You are always there.
Return! Return! The light returns!
Return! Return! Your child returns!
And my heart is guarding, but peace you bring. It will still be harder. Now you are my king. My mind is now against me. Your truth is awhat I fear. I try to question everything. Your truth is always near.
Return! Return! The light returns!
Return! Return! Your child returns!

Be Still
Let the heavens open up. Let your mercy rain on us. Your grace, it lasts forever. Your hope will light the world. Everything connected is good. Look what God has shone. Anywhere there is truth, there is God. He saves, He wakes us, He is, always will be.
Be still and know that He is God.
Be still and know that He is God.
And All God's People Said:
Where would we go... and what direction would lead us... and why would be walking? The lights turn on and off. Close the door! Open the door! This way, no, that way! You can trust us! No you can't! The "righteous" lead the way?!
And all God's People said, "Ne Na Ne Na, Ne Na Ne Na, Ne Na Ne Na."
And all God's People said, "Ne Na Ne Na, Ne Na Ne Na, Ne Na Ne Na."
Purpose Too by Dan
It's funny how we analyze things, make things smaller than us. We have a God whoh's bigger than us. So we make atoms and quarks and tiny measurements.
But look at the sky, so much bigger than us. In its magnitude, only God could have make that.
So far away, seems, so far away.
It's the times when we realize how small we really are that we can redirect. Focus! Bring about the change in our lives so that we can change others.
Trust God. Love God. Love him with action.
And once we jump off, we can serve as a spring, a stepping stone for others to make the jump. Not higher - the spring or stepping stone. We humbly proclaim that He is God and we are not. We are small. We will be walked on, trampled, smothered, used. Just like Jesus. So that others can know his name. Worship - Body, Spirit, Action, Behavior, Thought, Feel, Touch, Smell, Life.
Let your light shine through us. Entirely.

The Purpose by Ethan
To Redirect the idea of worship. Worship not only as a song of praise but as an entire life change. A service with worship music, worship preaching, worship worship. We will strive not to get louder and louder in the presence of God but to get quieter and quieter in the reality of how large He really is. As a group we must realize that God is not lucky to have us. We are lucky to have him anad we must live that way. Redirection is the ultimiate goal. We strive only to bring Jesus into the lives of others. We cannot bring change into the world without first being changed ourselves. This is easier said than done. Jumping off is the purpose. In order to redirect we must jump off. Jump off ourselves, jump off a cliff, jump off our doubt, just jump off. THe problem with juming off is that it takes a commitment. An absolute commitment. We love you Jesus. In our flaws you love us. Worship.
You are my breath.
You are my life.
You are my death.
You are the Christ.
You are my breath.
You are my life.
You are my death.
You are the Christ.

How do you change a church?
I haven't seen angels descending down ladders, but I know He's here with me, always with me, and apparently I'm here for a reason. Not the best, most talented, and most qualified person. Me. I've been chosen like those before me to bring about a change in some way. In which way is a mystery. The road ahead is foggy and dark. I feel like I'm being led along, blindfolded, yet He squeezes my hand tight and never lets go.
I am changing. I am not the same person anyone knows, not even those closest to me. The time has come, the time is now.
I'm running...
Everything we do is for Him and no one else. I don't believe in religion, I have faith in the Lord our God. It isn't my religion, it is my faith. I don't mold, I stick out. I transcend instead of conforming. There is a greater purpose here, I can not see. I continue to run. Still blind, but led along.
It's coming like a storm front. I can feel the winds blowing, and the sky begins to change. But it isn't dark, the sky is lit up in His majesty for all of the world to see. Under the stars, His mighty Kingdom, the sky is inviting and we rise.
Now's the time to start something, as we approach the dawn. Our God reigns, his mercy and grace fall like rain.
We surrender all we are, forever.
The moment you realize you don't care about what it is you alone want to start, God starts something in you. You truly start something. We are a part of something unexplainable, unimaginable, unquestionable. Can you feel it coming? We're on the brink of something large.
