7. New Lease On Life

Lyrics:

Oh Lord, have mercy on this weary soul
Come and take me to the river and make me whole
It’s down with the old and up with the new
The hard reset my life take two
Oh Lord, have mercy on this weary soul
I got a new lease on life
They say you only live once
But I live twice
I got a new lease on life, I got a new lease on life, yeah
Oh Lord remind me of who I am
My chains have been shattered I’m a brand new man
I’m free indeed, I’m dead no more
At my worst I’m still adored
Oh Lord remind me, this is who I am
I got a new lease on life
They say you only live once
But I live twice
I got a new lease on life, I got a new lease on life, yeah
The enemy knows where I call my home, but he’s still trying
To mess up my life in the meantime, so Lord remind me
I got a new lease on life
They say you only live once
But I live twice
I got a new lease on life, I got a new lease on life, yeah


8. Wishful Thinking

Lyrics:

Lord is it possible to get this far,
And just now understand who You are?
Feeling foolish yet relieved as well
Cause what I bought before, I just can’t sell
But now my eyes are open wide
If this is wrong, I don’t wanna be right
Could it be that on my worst day?
How you love me still will not change
What if it’s really not about what I do but what you did, oh what if
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
Well I guess I’m better late than not at all
Or did You plan it this way all along
Cause without suffering grace is hard to see
So maybe I’m right where I’m supposed to be
And now I'm thinking You so differently
And all I can say is finally
Could it be that on my worst day?
How you love me simply will not change
What if it’s really not about?
What I do but what you did oh what if?
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
It’s how it is
But now my eyes are open wide
If this is wrong Lord do not make me, don't you make me right?
Now I know that on my worst day
The way you love me it ain’t never change
It’s never really been about what I do but what you did
Yes it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is
This ain’t wishful thinking it’s just how it is


9. Burn Baby Burn

Lyrics:

And do we know exactly who we are?
We hold the light but we still listen to the dark
And it tells us we that don’t measure up
And it tells us that we’ll never be enough, tell me
Do we know exactly who we are?
We are the light, light of the world, light up the night
When will we learn, now is our time, now is our turn?
To burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
And do we know exactly what we have?
Why don’t we let it shine while we have the chance?
It’s not so we can earn our place, we shine cause we’ve been saved by grace, tell me
Do we know exactly what we have?
We are the light, light of the world, light up the night
When will we learn?
Now is our time, now is our turn
To burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
Oh we’re a city on a hillside
So bright keep on shining
Oh take that fire from the inside
Outside keep on burning
We are the light, light of the world, light up the night
When will we learn now is our time?
Now is our turn
To burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby
Oh, oh, oh
Burn baby, burn baby


10. Dear Younger Me

Lyrics:

Dear younger me, where do I start?
If I could tell you everything that I have learned so far
Then you could be one step ahead
Of all the painful memories still running thru my head
I wonder how much different things would be
Dear younger me, dear younger me
I cannot decide
Do I give some speech about how to get the most out of your life?
Or do I go deep and try to change
The choices that you’ll make cause they’re choices that made me?
Even though I love this crazy life, sometimes I wish it was a smoother ride
Dear younger me, dear younger me
If I knew then what I know now, condemnation would’ve had no power
My joy my pain would’ve never been my worth
If I knew then what I know now, would’ve not been hard to figure out
What I would’ve changed if I had heard
Dear younger me, it’s not your fault
You were never meant to carry this beyond the cross
Dear younger me
You are holy you are righteous you are one of the redeemed
Set apart a brand new heart you are free indeed
Every mountain every valley, through each heartache you will see
Every moment brings you closer to who you were meant to be
Dear younger me, dear younger me
You are holy you are righteous you are one of the redeemed
Set apart a brand new heart
You are free indeed
You are holy you are righteous you are one of the redeemed
Set apart a brand new heart, you are free indeed
You are holy you are righteous you are one of the redeemed
Set apart a brand new heart you are free indeed
