"I Am New"

I lay my life down
For the sake of You my King
You laid Your life down
You gave me everything

I am new
I am new
All because of You

I am new
I am new
All because of You

I lay my life down
For the sake of You my King
You laid Your life down
You gave me everything

I am changed
I am changed
You made the Great Exchange

I am changed
I am changed
You made the Great Exchange

I lay my life down
For the sake of You my King
You laid Your life down
You gave me everything

I am changed
I am changed
You made the Great Exchange

I am changed
I am changed
I'll never be the same

Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
You made the Great Exchange

Hallelujah!
Hallelujah!
I'll never be the same

"Biscuit"

I will do as you ask
I must, however,
Preface this task:
“This is a color?”

I know it as food
Served warm with butter
Fluffy, flaky, wonderful mood
“May I have another?”

Sausage, hot, with gravy
And an egg—boil it!
To the store, for savings!
“Will you buy a toilet?”

"Hearing Father's Glory"

Simon and Cleopas
Walking to Emmaus
Saddened consternation

Up came a stranger
Asked about the danger
Joined conversation

Stranger told a story:
“Hearing Father’s Glory”
The plan of salvation

Men couldn’t be kinder
Broken bread reminder
Personal revelation

Walking from Emmaus
Simon and Cleopas
Witnesses to the nations

"No More Circles"

Those people followed Moses
They went around in circles

I worked driving buses
I went around in circles

Now we've crossed the Jordan
God brought us to our Promised Land

"I'm So Drunk On God"

I'm so drunk on God
I'm so drunk on God
You might call it odd
But me?
I call it God

"Jesus On My Mind"

You take my breath away
My heart is all aflutter
I'm weak in the knees
I'm undone
Take me, Lord!
Take me!
