Set Sail
Set Sail
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
It looks to you like a storm may be brewin’
Out on the water ahead
You’re still in the harbor, it’s time to get moving
You’re tempted to turn back instead
But if you know that you’ve heard from the lord
Why are you still so close to the shore?
Set sail
Even though you’re afraid
that the waves will come crashing down
Set sail
Feel the wind in your face
The moment to live life is now
God’s love is faithful, His compass is true
No need to fear that you’ll fail
Set sail
I know it feels like the place that you’re going
is a journey you’re making alone
Oh but the one who walks on the water
is closer than you’ll ever know
Hold on to courage, move forward in faith
Keep your eyes fixed on him, stay the course and be brave
CHORUS
When the waters are troubled
and the way is unclear
Perfect love casts out all fear
CHORUS

Where is My Faith
WHERE IS MY FAITH
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Tony Wood, & Steve Siler
How many problems are of my design?
Shadows of trouble I’ll never find
How many hours have I lied awake
wrestling with things I could never change?
How many times have I caused my own thirst
forgetting that you are supposed to come first?
Where is my faith?
Where is the trust?
Where is my obedience?
Why all this doubt?
Why all this fear?
Is my religion insincere?
It’s as if I don’t believe the promise you’ve made
Oh, where is my faith
How many times have you been there for me?
Right on time with the very thing I need
How many miracles do I need to see
before I’m convinced that you care for me?
How many teardrops do you have to dry
before I remember your sacrifice?
CHORUS
You could not have said it more clearly
Don’t worry
Don’t worry

Look into My Eyes
LOOK INTO MY EYES
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
We’re texting past each other
We’re talking on the run
I can feel the distance
Bet I’m not the only one
Love and trust
Take communication
But staring at these screens
Something’s lost in translation
Look into my eyes
The windows of my soul
You will see my heart
and all the things I want you to know
We all deserve attention
We long for deep connection
You have to set everything aside
Look into my eyes
Let’s take a walk together
Put away the phones
Take some time to listen
Hear what’s really going on
Face to face
Just us with no distractions
When we make some space
There’s something real that happens when you
Repeat CHORUS
No wonder we’re so lonely
Out of sync and out of touch
We can do this
Please care enough
to look into my eyes
The windows of my soul
You will see my heart
and all the things I want you to know
We all deserve attention
We long for deep connection
You have to set everything aside
Look into my eyes

Joy in the Mess
Joy in the Mess
Words & Music Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, and Tony Wood
Chaos and confusion
Trying to keep my head above the water line
Drowning in distractions
Everyday I fall farther behind
But you’re giving me a glimpse of where this all might lead
I’m seeing possibilities
that I just can’t believe
I’m finding joy in the mess
Beauty in the pain
Peace when life is driving me insane
Letting go of control and finding a place of rest and joy
I’m finding joy in the mess
It’s not easy
We get weary
Living in the tension of these days
But I’m finding it’s the shadows
that help me see the light a different way
I’m finding joy in the mess
Beauty in the pain
Peace when life is driving me insane
Letting go of control and finding a place of rest and joy
I’m finding joy in the mess
Holding pieces of a puzzle yet to be complete
A picture starts to come together that I never thought I’d see
I’m finding joy in the mess
Hope in the grief
Calm in the storm knowing life’s not always clean
Letting go of my will and trusting you know best
There’s joy
I’m finding Joy in the mess

In All Things
IN ALL THINGS
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
Gratitude
May be easy for you
But a lot of days it’s hard for me
My soul bleeds
My faith is weak
and I can’t bear the agony
In the middle of the nightmare
I’m still not alone
So I pray
In all things
In all things
Even in the worst life brings
Deep in pain
On my knees
Jesus you are here with me
In all things
So I catch my breath
and take one step
“cause that’s all that I can do today
Help me trust
your strength’s enough
‘Cause what I’m facing hasn’t changed
There may be things I’m not thankful for
But I can be thankful in
CHORUS
Thank you father for what you’re doing in me
Thank you father for what you’re doing in me
In all things
In all things
Thank you Father
Deep in pain
On my knees
Thank you Father
In all things
CHORUS
Thank you father

I Promise to Be with You Today
I PROMISE TO BE WITH YOU
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, And Tony Wood
You pack your bags with the guilt and shame
of a thousand bygone days
You re-rehearse the pain and hurt
of long ago mistakes
But yesterday’s sins are a thing of the past
With every dawn I give there’s a new chance
To live in the moment
To breathe in the blessings
To gather your burdens and leave them at my feet
Abundant joys and mercies wait
in every dawn that breaks
I promise to be with you today
I’m not giving you your yesterdays
What is done cannot be changed
Tomorrow isn’t yours to live
until I turn the page
Regrets are like clouds they just block out the sun
Instead why not cherish the day that has come
And live in the moment
Breathe in the blessings
Gather your burdens and leave them at my feet
Abundant joys and mercies wait
in every dawn that breaks
I promise to be with you today
You’ve never been alone
You’ll never be alone
Don’t you know how much I care?
Take time to pray
And seek my face
You will see me everywhere
If you live in the moment…

Wrong Conversations
The Wrong Conversations
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
I walk in to the room
I’m quick to assume
That I’ve made some kind of mistake
and I make a leap
That you’re mad at me
Simply by a look on your face
Then a comment gets made
and things escalate
and just like that
We’re having the wrong conversations
or saying nothing at all
Feeling the same old frustrations
and nothing ever gets solved
Me and you
We dance around the truth
too afraid to name what we feel
We’ll never heal
Having the wrong conversations
You don’t say a word
But I know what I heard
So I put the words in your mouth
Then you get upset
at what I just said
How do we find our way out
When will we see
What’s underneath
If we keep
Having the wrong conversations
or saying nothing at all
Feeling the same old frustrations
and nothing ever gets solved
Me and you
We dance around the truth
too afraid to name what we feel
We’ll never heal
Having the wrong conversations
What are we so afraid of
My love, my love
We’re having the wrong conversations
or saying nothing at all
Feeling the same old frustrations
and nothing ever gets solved
Me and you
We dance around the truth
too afraid to name what we feel
We’ll never heal
Having the wrong conversations

It’s My Heart You Want to Change
It’s My Heart You Want to Change
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
I’ve always believed prayer changes things
I’ve said it a thousand times or more
But now on my knees
It’s so unexpected
The way that you’re dealing with me Lord
I was feeling wronged by what someone did to me
I’ve been praying that you’d change his heart
but suddenly I see
It’s my heart you want to change
’til my anger melts away
and I come in search of peace
Laying pride down at your feet
It’s not about who’s wrong or right
It’s about the love of Christ
You’re asking me to pray instead of blame
’cause it’s my heart you want to change
It’s easy to be kind
and give what I’ve been given
to return a smile for a smile
But you say speak love
to someone who has hurt me
Lord, that’s so hard to reconcile
I could talk behind their back
or come before your throne
This time I think I need to talk to you
and you alone
CHORUS
Come In
Come In
Words & Music by Scott Krippayne, Steve Siler, & Tony Wood
I know your voice
We’ve been here before
You’ve called to me
I’ve locked the door
Afraid of pain
Didn’t want to be hurt
This isolation
is making it worse
Been so alone
But I know I need
Everything
You have for me
I’m turning the key
Come in
God I’m asking you
Come in
Do what you want to do
I give you permission
No more resisting
I’m finally ready to live
Come in
The gift of grace for what’s in my past
The light of hope to end this night at last
You’ve longed for me to make a move
Now it’s time
I’m choosing you
The hiding is through
CHORUS
Come in – change what needs to change
Come in – help me trust your ways
Come In
Come In
Come In
God I’m pleading with you
Come in
Do what need to do
I give you permission
No more resisting
I’m finally ready to live
Come in
