Words & Music by Scott Krippayne & Steve Siler
Sometimes it feels like the sun will never rise
Like the birds will never sing again
The night is dark, not one star in the sky
and no one you can call a friend
In so deep
It feels like you are drowning
So afraid
You can hardly catch your breath
Keep breathing
Take it in and let it out
Keep Breathing
It's gonna be OK
Believe in
A power greater than what you are going through
When you don't know what to dof.Keep breathing
You know the one that reaches through the hurt
A comfort for the broken heart
But in this place even prayers are painful
Life isn't 'sposed to be this hard
When relief is more than you can hope for
And the wounds seem deeper than your faith
CHORUS
Don't give up
Even though you want to
Don't give in
You've already come this far
It's alright
The Lord knows what you're needing
And he'll meet you where you are, justf.

MORE LIKE A WHISPER
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne & Steve Siler
Sometimes the mountain moves
and is thrown into the sea
Sometimes the lightening strikes
and a vision comes to me
But sometimes it's more like a whisper
Quiet and gentle, peaceful and still
When questions rain down like thunder
Sometimes the answer
is more like a whisper
Sometimes the waters part
and the path ahead is clear
Sometimes the angels sing
and it's music to my ears
CHORUS
Lord help me listen whenever you speak
If the river runs wild or silent and deep
Sometimes one candle burns
and a light glows in the dark
Sometimes a flower blooms
and your love grows in my heart
'cause
CHORUS

NOT TOO FAR FROM HERE
Words & Music By Ty Lacy & Steve Siler
Somebody's down to their last dime
Somebody's running out of time
Not too far from here
Somebody's got nowhere else to go
Somebody needs a little hope
Not too far from here
and I may not know their names
But I'm praying just the same
That you'll use me Lord to wipe away a tear
'Cause somebody's crying
Not too far from here
Somebody's troubled and confused
Somebody's got nothing left to lose
Not too far from here
Somebody's forgotten how to trust
Somebody's dying for love
Not too far from here
It may be a stranger's face
But I'm praying for your grace
To move in me and take away the fear
'Cause somebody's hurting
Not too far from here
Help me Lord not to turn away from pain
Help me not to rest while those around me weep
Give me your strength and compassion
When somebody finds the road of life too steep
Now I'm letting down my guard
and I'm opening my heart
Help me speak your love to every needful ear
Jesus is waiting
Not too far from here
Jesus is waiting
Not too far from here

SWEET COMPANY
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
In my bed of thorns
He is the fragrant rose
In my wilderness
He is the stream that flows
A shelter built with loving grace
His refuge shall be my dwelling place
Sweet company
Oh, how his mercy follows me
Sweet company
From now through all eternity
Jesus is my sweet company
In my deepest night
He is the guiding star
In my sinfulness
He is the forgiving heart
A willing ear for each silent prayer
A shoulder for burdens I cannot bear
CHORUS
There is nothing to be gained
Apart from Christ
Even in the face of death
He is life
CHORUS then Tag/
My anguished soul has been set free
In the presence of his sweet company

Psalm 23
The Lord is My Shepherd
I shall not want
He makes me to lie down in green pastures
He leads me beside the still waters
He restores my soul
He leads me in the paths of righteousness
For His name's sake
Yea, though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death
I will fear no evil
For you are with me
Your rod and your staff, they comfort me
You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies
You anoint my head with oil
My cup runs over
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me
All the days of my life
And I will dwell in the house of the Lord
Forever
