Hold Nothing Back

Come as you are, every area of your life exposed
Hold nothing back, every member of your body; sins untold

I hear your voice, the way in which to live
But guilt wages war as what I want and what I do are not the same within

So not just the whole, but each part alone
I bring to the Savior; saved... sanctified... whole

And as it is for me, let it be for Your Church
That the world may know the love-life of Christ
Available for all who search

Give Him Your Burdens

The burdens of life can be so heavy
Shoulders aching under the strain
The stresses of each day so many
No relief to be found for the day

But the is a Savior who carries our burdens away
"Bring them to Me," He said
"Exchange your yoke which is heavy,
And take up Mine which is light" today

"I will give you life," He said
Life abounding in joy
The burdens of this life that once seemed so heavy
Now laid down at the cross of Calvary no longer my life to sway

Give it to me straight

Words on a page mean a lot to you
They're a source of hope and truth, and strength for you

But those words on a page mean nothing to me
Until I see them lived out for the world to see

I want what you've got but my defenses are high
So advance His Gospel be force if His words cannot lie

Give it to me straight don't cover it up or make it PC
I live a different life then you and my life is in need of hope you see

If Jesus is the way and His word brings life
Then preach it to me hard giving me hope, removing sins strive

No Fear - I'm Free

Fear is a chain that binds
It locks us up
Body, soul, and mind

Its links are strong
Its lock secure
Jesus blood the key
That holds the cure

Salvation in Christ
Sets men free
Chains fall off
Locks broken on a tree

His cross of love
Prisoners set free
Spirit like a dove
Praise God, my Jesus loves me

The Love of Christ
Lavished on me
Perfect love that set me free
Perfect love - no fear remains
Freedom in Christ to be attained
So call on Christ, never be the same
