Compass 05:54
Your Spirit speaks but I don’t want to go Until I know where you will lead And I’m learning slow that it’s better When I let it all go and my heart goes free I’m longing for the day my traveling is done And every mountain moves When the road gets steep You let my soul retreat anywhere with you I know I’m free but I’ve been living as a captive Lord Because that’s all I’ve seen I know there’s comfort in the dark But my eyes light up When I see my king who’s come to ransom me Everywhere I go your voice Will be my compass Lord Jesus you are my due north and all I see You carry me to worlds unknown Like a long lost love To watch my heart run easy wild and free Come away my love come away my bride To the place that I have made for you Come away my love come away my bride To the place that I have promised you
2.
I Still 03:54
I still just want to wander I still get dragged away by my desires I still keep one eye on my idols But you still call me your beloved bride I still hear thunder in the evening And my heart gets troubled at the thought That your wrath is louder than your mercy But you still every storm within my heart I still get all dressed up in my history I’m too afraid to wear the hope of what could be I still don’t understand the mystery That you’d call one like me to bear your name Be still and know that I am with you Be still and know that I’m your God Every scar that you’ve given and been given I lay my hands upon them all
3.
Father Son and Ghost Lion lamb and dove Everything you are Set right in front of me Strength over the storm Peace for my troubled soul And a heart that won’t let go Of this restless runaway I was yours before the earth Yours before my birth And yours the day I heard About what you did for me Now I’m trying to rise above What I have and haven’t done I’m hanging on your words I need something to carry me I’m looking steady at your face All the glory all the grace I’ve been steered all the wrong ways By my wild imagination And it’s time that I believe That the honor of my king Doesn’t rise and fall on me It’s all yours Lord You’re gonna do what you’re gonna do Everything good it comes from you
4.
Fever 04:04
I’ll wait here in the valley In the cold in the dark Though my mind is racing as fast as my heart I’m scared and I’m lonely But I won’t give up Lord I trust you My God how I trust you Oh glimmer of hope Come out from the clouds Oh seeds of new life spring up from the ground My eyelids rise When I hear the sound of your voice I’ve been longing for a change of scenery Just a tangible taste of a world far away I guess the valley of the shadow of death Is not just for the dying Is it darkness that gives me Eyes for the dreaming Of a life where my heart my body and soul They all look like the same thing Is it sorrow that leads me To hope for the morning When the fever will break And your mercy will make Something good of my longing
5.
It’s the love in your heart that drives me forward The grace in your eyes that calls me home And the presence of God just rests on my shoulders Like a father’s hands they rest on his son You’ve heard every prayer that I prayed out of my faith Lord And you’ve heard every prayer that I prayed out of my fear And still you bend your ear to hear what I’m saying No matter what state my heart is in Oh love that you’d love a heart that gets troubled And grows dark like the sight of a gathering storm And you watch me get myself caught up in the struggle But you’ve always been my rescuing arm Nothing to prove Nothing to do But wait here for you to tell me who I am Nothing to prove Nothing to lose It’s all in your hands As much as I try to hold up my posture Because crumbling Lord feels weak and exposed Your wide open arms and your strong tender heartbeat Invite me in close to let myself be loved
6.
Scars 04:18
Scars on my heart They lead me to believe that I’m blind That you just won’t be seen Remove the veil Because I bought into a horrible lie About what you think of me All I ever seem to do is climb a little higher only to find The poison of my family line has waged a war over my whole life All my scars they steer my mind like false prophets in a good disguise But you’re my healer my defender and Lord my light Lord your scars They run a little deeper than mine Would you show your hands to me
7.
My Deliverer 04:40
Quench this thirst in my bones I’m yours forever This restless desire to roam Down roads that lead to nowhere When fear suffocates And I cannot find my way to the Father I’ll fix my gaze On the words that won’t change And believe your promise You are my deliverer You’re calling my desperate soul To freedom in surrender You’ve offered a hand I can hold To walk boldly together Your word is a lamp to my feet And a light to my path Oh God let me never make light Of the things that You’ve said
8.
Lift My Head 05:17
Quiet me with your love Quiet me and my restless heart again I’m made for you Lord I was made to be found and pardoned I will lift my head To the one who lays his glory on me I will lift my heart To the one who makes me righteous in his sight Come to me my saving grace Would you teach me how to see your heart I’ve been hiding far away You’ve invited me to hide under your wings oh God Wash me in the river glory Until all my fears are gone Tell me that ancient story How I’ve never been alone Remove the veil from my face
9.
I’m trying to catch a ghost To find the edges of its glow With eyes that cannot see and hands that cannot hold I’m trying to catch a ghost I’m trying to hear you Lord Trying to listen through the noise But all I hear is fear in the tone of my own voice I’m trying to hear you Lord Your love keeps coming with a louder sound I don’t know what keeps me down But I can hear the winds of change blowing over This heart of torment I’ve been holding out Trying to wrap my mind around And I can see the hands of heaven reaching down Show yourself to me As my lips carry your name Sometimes I think that I can almost see your face Would you show yourself to me Oh deep call out to deep in the middle of my grief I’ve been chasing after shadows but Lord I need the real thing And when I don’t hear you speak over my uncertainty I hear the echo of your promise You’re still right here next to me
10.
Letting Go 06:14
Lord I trust you because I know you And I know you because you’ve made yourself known All my faith is born of grace Lord And all your grace is born of love You give me strength to give myself away And in the letting go I find The pleasure of my Father’s company And a quiet confidence inside Like you’ve got something else in mind I can feel the tension rising in the waiting Fear in my left hand Lord and faith in my right And I may be broken God and poured out like an offering But nothing’s ever wasted in my life And the story’s never been my own to write Lord I’m finding in the end there’s a beginning And a reason that you give and take away And everything I think I’ve lost along the journey Has led me to an even greater gain And you’re all I’ve ever wanted anyway
