Shades Of Grace

Bob Carlisle Shades Of Grace歌詞
1.i'm gonna be ready

Right over here, noe children
Talk to me
We can talk about anything at all
What so you see?
I can see all the lonely people
all of them looking for the answer
all of them listening for that call

Poverty
The likes of which I can't seem to remember
Desparity
The likes of which I just can't recall
So how can it be?
THat even with the hope we have inside us
Still we seem to let those things divide us
that don't amount to anything at all

All your life, you've been prepared
for this single, precious moment in time
When Jesus calls, what will you say?
I'm here, and I'm yours, and my answer,
Lors, is

Yes,
I'm gonna be ready
I wanna be able
To answer you're every call,
Oh, yes

I'm much more than willing
I've got a desire that's burning like a flame
I'm gonna be ready when you call
my name

Right over here, now, children
Talk to me
ANything that's on your mind
What do you see
I can see all the hungry children
being denied a decent meal to fill them
through no fault of their own

All it takes is simple faith
to turn the situation around
Love can break the strongest chains
So I'm here, and I'm ready
and my heart is saying yes..

Just let me be your hands
Let me touch the hears of this broken world
Father just give me your command
And I'll do anything, I'll go anywhere.


2.living water

I feel Your touch, I can feel Your heart,
As I'm lying here, alone in the dark.
I feel Your voice gently say, "Come to Me."
I long for Your love as the earth longs for the rainfall.
I'm weary - Lord, I've wandered this desert too long.

Chorus
So come, living water, flow through me like a river,
My heart's been thirsting so long.
Flood through my soul, and pour out your mercy.
Come, living water, fill me.

Lord, so many times You've called my name,
And I've turned my face the other way.
Yet before I even saw the womb, You loved me.
How can I be so blind
When I alone have created my darkness.
Forgive me, and wash me clean again


3.man of his word

In the final days of summer, 1944
With just a preacher and a witness
And a humble band of gold
They set out to find the future
Not a penny to their name
Still with all the unknown danger
She knew her heart was safe
Cause...

He was a rock
He was the one that she ran to
And when he said the word 'forever'
She knew that it was true

He wasn't a saint
But he was saint enough for her
He was a man
A man of his word

The final days of summer, 1964
Found a family undivided, divided on the war
Turning son against his elder
Debating wrong and right
He was the image of his father
Though they wouldnt not see eye to eye
Still...

He was a rock
He was the one the boy ran to
Cause when he said the words 'I love you'
He knew that it was true

And even in the worst of storms
There was an anchor in his world
He was a man
A man of his word

Clutching a strong belief in the Bible
Through all the sweetness in his life
And the bitterness of war
He knew what God had made him for...

In the final days of summer, 1994
Surrounded by his family, and the presence of the Lord
He set out to find his future
The one he'd always known
He didn't want to leave his family
But he knew deep in his soul
The Lord had called him home...
Cause...

He was the rock
He was the one the man ran to
And when He said the word 'forever'
He knew that it was true

He wasn't a saint
He is the one the saints bow to
Receiving a man
A man of his word

He is the one that I run to
Cause when he says the word 'forever'
I know His word is true

He isn't a saint
He's the one the saints bow to
Come to the Man
The Man of His word


4.on my knees

Stand
with all my might and still I seem to fall.
I try to walk before I even crawl.
Oh it seems I'm like a child in need again.
A helpless heart
A broken man.

Strength
is something that's so very hard to find.
But still I know that true faith must be blind
So I sacrifice my heart to God in prayer
Lay my weakness down
and I'll find you there

I can stand tall
On my knees
I can see forever
On my knees
I can face it all... I feel like
I can climb a mountain
Cause on my knees the world's a little smaller
And I stand taller
On my knees

See a man,
in a garden long ago, kneeling alone,
as the weight of his sins unseen and lives unknown
come to rest upon His weary shoulders
He knew my name
He took my pain, so...

There's a peace that shadows anything
I've known
I lay down every burden
And I'm free...


5.on my way to paradise

My soul's in motion
movin' on a righteous thing
you're doin' in me, here in me.

My sole devotion
bout' to makin' mw wanna
sing in harmony, harmony.

Singing bout' the joy I've found
Walkin' on holy ground
Don't you know, there's absolutly
no room for doubt.
I'm counting on the promises
you made, the life you gave.
That's where I want to go.

Oh me, oh my
I'm on my way to paradise
So sweet, so nice
I'm on my way to paradise

Good Lord I'm ready.
Ready for anything,
anything at all.

I'm movin' steady.
I'm walkin' on the narrow road
that's gonna lead me home,
right on home.

I can almost see myself walkin'
onthe streets of gold
I can almost hear the angels
calling my name.
I'm gonna see Him face to face,
eye to eye. That's where I wanna go


6.one man revival

No greater love, no lesser grace
No great distance than the one that I have made
You crave my heart and miss our quiet time alone
Have I become as hard as stone?

Chorus
I need a one-man revival
A renewing of my heart
To capture me before I stray too far
It's the one thing I cry for
And the only way I know
Is a one-man revival in my soul (heart)

I know I've turned away it seems
But You pursue me while I'm busy chasing dreams
My dreams aren't worth the sacrifice of my first love
What I should be dreaming of...

Repeat Chorus

I'm disappointed at how my perfect world should be
But if I'm gonna see a change (really gonna see a change)
There's got to be a change in me


7.you must have been an angel

I was the lonely one inside
Seemed like my prayers had been denied
IЪFFFF92d come to the decision
To never find a love thatЪFFFF92s true

Down on my knees again, in prayer
Oh Lord, please send someone to care
My best imagination
Could not have dreamed someone like you

You must have been an angel, I can tell
By the heavenly way my heart fell
Oh, it was spiritual, a miracle
That an angel
Would fall in love with me

YouЪFFFF92ve got that heart of gold, I swear
You are the answer to my prayer
And so much heavenly power
To make a mortal dream come true

Oh you were heaven sent, I know
For even when the lights are low
I can almost see a halo
Girl IЪFFFF92m so in love with you

You must have been an angel, I can tell
By the heavenly way my heart fell
Oh, it was spiritual, a miracle
That an angel
Would fall in love with me

Girl, IЪFFFF92m so glad I found you
Gonna wrap my whole world around you
Oh, itЪFFFF92s gonna be
So heavenly
Just you and me
