I wish there was a way to start again Just blink and count to ten In the land of beginning again Where no one knows the bad things that you've done The past is truly gone In the land of beginning again And I see a child returning to the sky We'll all play simple games And all the hard things there are soft as rain I wish there was a way to start again To wake up among friends In the land of beginning again And I love my brother more than my own life And no one feels mean All things are new Behold the slate is clean ... I wish there was A way to start again Just blink and count to ten In the land of beginning again In the land of beginning again

Let me take you back to where it all began Out there on the fast track Where the mountains stand Against the sand... in L.A. Music every night Hung-over everyday I was gonna make the big time I could feel it in my fingers when I'd play I woke up in motel rooms under western skies Living for the summer moon and the party life There's nothing worse than L.A. days But those California nights They barely kept me alive As the years rolled on The humor got really dry If I played that terrible Eagle's song One more time I thought I was gonna die The one man good night Longing to seize the day That big record deal in the sky Surely was just a heart beat away I woke up in motel rooms under western skies (wester skies) Living for the summer moon and the party life There's nothing worse than L.A. days But those California nights Oh, they barely kept me alive I woke up in motel rooms under western skies When I think of the things I did On those party nights It's only by the Grace of God that I'm still alive I believe God's grace kept me alive

Grace kept rolling off Like so much rain into a broken cup It stayed a while but soon was on its way Just like a prize fighter Who can hear the count but can't get up I'll sleep a while and fight another day Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window Closed to everyone Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window I was growing colder in the sun Mirror, mirror, in the sky I look to you But you can't hear me cry Sometimes you seem so far away Why give me this ocean That nobody wants to get too near And why, oh God can I not seize the day? Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window Closed to everyone Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window I was growing colder in the sun Years kept blowing by like so much rain into my heart Dreaming of the day When I might get that major part And when things didn't go my way I did what I did yesterday There wasn't any way to change my heart Like a lock to the door Like a latch to the window I was growing colder in the sun Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window (Just enduring my life in silence) Closed to everyone Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window (I kept living my life inside) I was growing colder in the sun Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window (Just enduring my life in silence) Closed to everyone Like a lock to the door, like a latch to the window (I kept living my life inside) I was growing colder in the sun

But during that time Of darkness and doubt I began to search for something Looked up and down But I barely knew the difference Between the sky and the ground Sleeping Jesus Awaken in the man Send your spirit Touch him with your hand He can't feel you He cannot see the sky Sleeping Jesus Awaken in his mind The veil of tears Was wearing quite thin The weight of wasted years Left no way to win But I began to feel his guidance While I was deep in my sin Sleeping Jesus Awaken in the man Send your spirit Touch him with your hand He can't feel you He cannot reason why Sleeping Jesus He's reaching for the sky Sleeping Jesus Awaken in the man Send your spirit And touch him with your hand He can't feel you He cannot see the sky Sleeping Jesus Awaken in his mind

With one hand retreating like one that would drink to forget I sunk to the depths of the deepest black forest of death I was under the Fatherly care Of the prince of the power of the air The prince of the power of the air Was calling me back out there The prince of the power of the air Was taking me anywhere It's the way of the movement that flies in the face of the son Live what you feel and watch out for what you might become It can seem like you're doing just fine But the creep's creepin' into your mind The prince of the power of the air Was calling me back out there The prince of the power of the air Was taking me anywhere The prince of the power of the air Can bring you down anywhere The prince of the power of the air Can break you down anywhere, anywhere, anywhere

Princes, principalities, legals and legalities They have no more power before us Dark is their reality There's a light that we can see Lighting up the pathway before us There's so much that we can know There's a godly way to go Can't you feel he's reaching down for us His is the best place to be He's the truth that makes you free Can't you feel he's keeping his promise Princes, principalities, legals and legalities They have no more power before us There's a light that we can see There's a new reality Can't you feel he's keeping his promise now? Princes, principalities, legals and legalities They have no more power before us There's a light that we can see There's a new reality Can't you feel he's keeping his promise, promise, promise now? The prince of the power of the air Was calling me back out there The prince of the power of the air Can lead you down, can lead you down The prince of the power of the air Can lead you down anywhere The prince of the power of the air He led me almost anywhere

Hearts can turn away And the roots of bitterness can carry the day And I was done, it was over I'd become Just another heart without a home And I was angry that God had left me alone Since I had No hope of living I began And started giving My life, my shame I gave it all to him My heart, my strife Can you change this wasted life? Time took time away But he was reaching when I was so far away Through many years Through death's valley He knew my tears I believe he allowed me My life, my sin Oh, I gave it all to him My heart, my strife Can you change this wasted life? My life, my shame Oh, I gave it all to him My heart, my strife Can you change this wasted life? My love, my shame Oh, I gave him all my pain The truth inside Can you change this wasted life? My life, my shame I gave it all to him With tears in my eyes I gave him my wasted life

Long before he came to claim me Things had started changing in my life (in my life) I began the day by praying God help me to lay myself aside (lay aside) Show me your will for my life Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Long before he came to hold me I looked up to heaven and I cried (yes I cried) Why it was I didn't know; My heart and soul just had to apologize And my eyes looked up to the Father of Lights Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Night falls away - night falls away Longing for the break of day Unlock the door and walk inside And find the truth you seek to hide He chased you down and brought you low To work the change no one can know But to go on you must let go Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day Night falls away - night falls away Longing for the break of day Dreams pass away - Dreams pass away Longing for the break of day

Somewhere down inside me there's a new sensation Out there on the edge there is no turning back I began to feel aware Of a different kind of power in the air Like a key in the door, like an opening window Something had begun Like a key in the door, like an opening window I found something new under the sun God began to deal with me in different circles I began to hear him like I never had While I was playing Rock 'n' Roll He began to fill the silence in my soul Like a key in the door, like an opening window Something had begun Like a key in the door, like an opening window I found something new under the sun Though the seeds of happiness Had been planted in my bones The soil had too much emptiness To ever have a home And when things didn't go my way I went right back to yesterday And no one seemed to know the way back home I'll just find my way alone I'll just find my way alone I'll just find my way alone So the key in the door, like an opening window At some point I lost the glory Like a key in the door, like an opening window I went back into my story Like a key in the door, like an opening window Open just a crack Like a key in the door, like an opening window When things got rough I started looking back

Breath blew right out of me Like wind across a window ledge My old forgotten ways Came rushing back on me The world that held no interest Gave way to somber days So many somber days I felt so all alone (In my suffering I was home) So many somber days I was so unaware Of almost anything but my suffering How can our sight become so severely limited We cannot see beyond The step we're about to take, the love that we did not make The years so swiftly gone So many somber days I felt so all alone (In my suffering I was home) So many somber days I was so unaware Of almost anything but my suffering And I felt unsure under a winter sky And I would waste away Coldest sun seemed so far away Who can heal a heart that's made of clay? If you're feeling down today If you're dreading your next breath You hurt down to the bone There is someone here with us God is close as your next breath He won't leave you alone Through your somber days when you feel all alone (All your suffering he has known) Through your somber days When you feel like no one cares (Touch your memory: he is there) Through these somber days All these somber days (He will walk with you all the way) No matter how it hurts please stay here one more day Help is on the way There'll be no more suffering

To make this story even longer Life began to cut me down to size Down to size Things got tough and they got tougher The California sun had burned me blind Made me blind, so blind, yeah Some of us are hard of hearing There I was nearing 35, 35 All the clubs that used to pay me Now began to say they got no time How would I survive? Oh 1, 2, 3, 4 1, 2, 3, 4 1, 2, 3, 4 With a host of weekend warriors dancing in the underground Someone stole my guitar and made it out of tinsel town Surrounded by rejecters and bill collectors circling all around The girl I loved went off and got married to a millionaire For fifty dollars I'd play five hours in the desert air Some of us have to hit bottom before we'll ever see above the ground

It's all I can do to get up in the mornin' And get through another day It's all I can do to just get off to work And not hurt anyone today It's all I can do to get by in this world There's so many dues to pay I used to believe I had so much to give But now all I have to say Is this is all I can do It's all I can do to come home at night And get myself undressed It's all I can do to sleep with the zombies and give my mind a rest I used to believe I could be anything And make it a big success My dreams got smaller and smaller until they were gone And now I guess This is all I can do Oh God, why have you forsaken me? Please don't leave me now Please don't leave me now Oh God, why are you so far from me? Can you save me now? Can you save me now From this world of tears? It's all I can do to get up in the mornin' And get through another day It's all I can do to sell all my junk Pack up and leave L.A. There's no future that I can see here The dream has gone away Don't cry for me mother, don't shed a tear I'll probably be back someday And this is all I can do

I drove out to Nashville in the pouring rain With revolution in the air With just my guitar, my dog and my tape machine I thought I might have some luck out there 'Cause I was ready to try anything Maybe my life was somewhere waiting I had nothing to lose and less to bring I was ready to try almost anything I spent my first night there with a friend of mine She was from that old party set I unpacked my bags and all I couldn't leave behind As it turned out I never left And I was ready to try anything Maybe my life was somewhere waiting I had nothing to lose and less to bring I was ready to try almost anything She's a good girl Loves Jesus like the song says And through my madness My heart began to say yes, yes One day she brought me to her childhood church Old time religion filled the air The preacher said you're saved by faith and not by works I thought "that's good 'cause I haven't worked in a year" But I was ready to try anything Maybe my life is right here waiting I've got nothing to lose and less to bring I was ready to try almost anything I was ready to try anything (Don't want to be a lock to the door) Maybe my life is right here waiting (Don't want to be a latch to the window) I've got nothing to lose and less to bring I was ready to try almost anything

Can somebody shout Hallelujah? Can somebody give an amen? The church sang and danced And the band cranked up to ten They talked about living water Oh, they sang about Jordan wide I never felt so out of place in all my life Sing it high, sing it low Sing it everywhere you go Jesus will deliver you from suffering He's the way, he's the goal He's the song in your soul Listen with your spirit and you'll hear it ring Can't you hear it ring now? Somethin' kept calling me back there Oh, the love of the people so strong Soon I was dancing and clapping and singing along, yes I was Sing it high, sing it low Sing it everywhere you go Jesus will deliver you from suffering He's the way, he's the goal He's the song in your soul Listen with your spirit and you'll hear it ring Oh, you'll hear it ring Come on, wooh, come on Woo hoo, wooh Sing it high, sing it low Sing it everywhere you go Jesus will deliver you from suffering He's the way, he's the goal He's the song in your soul Listen with your spirit and you'll hear it ring Sing it high, sing it low Sing it everywhere you go Jesus will deliver you from suffering He's the way, he's the goal He's the song in your soul Listen with your spirit and you'll hear it ring Oh you'll hear it ring?

Cherie and I got married In my bass player's old back yard My Mom and Dad tried But they took my moving hard We still didn't have much money And soon kids were on the way But more and more I would go to church and pray Like an opening door Like a breeze through a window Prying me apart Like an opening door Like a breeze through a window Something started moving in my heart The band started doing better Back in 1998 I started to think Well maybe it's not too late That big round ball of death inside Something that I'd always had I woke up one day And realized I wasn't sad anymore And the opening door Like a breeze through a window Prying me apart Like an opening door Like a breeze through a window Something started moving in my heart Oh Lord, my God are you calling me now? Oh Lord, my God I can feel you now, oh

Jesus, is it true what they're saying You know in my heart I've been praying 'Cause I feel something, is it you that I feel?

In the middle of the breaking through There was still more that I was clinging to That fear you feel like when you're almost gone When you want to jump but you're still hanging on Come on! And as I stood there praying in my mind I saw the things I couldn't leave behind The heart conceals what we cannot know As he revealed I cried out, "Let it go." Let's go!

In quiet solitude I lift my heart to the sky To the mountain so high My life is on the altar With music all around His spirit enters my soul Like nothing I've ever known Like stillness on the water And I knew it was him I knew it was Jesus The beauty of his love inside Letting all my pain be crucified And I knew it was him I knew this was Jesus There my heart was cleansed of sin I could have the world but oh, to feel him In a moment lost in time My life in front of me lay From my birth to that day I caught a glimpse of freedom And there I stayed While the people prayed Until he came in at last I waved goodbye to my past And walked into the kingdom And I knew it was him I knew it was Jesus Like the wind you cannot see I felt his spirit touching me And oh, to feel, to feel him I knew this was Jesus There my heart was cleansed of sin I could have the world but oh, to feel him To feel him Oh, to feel him, I can feel Jesus Like the day of Pentecost His love poured out to all the lost And oh, to feel him, oh to feel Jesus The power of his love inside Letting all my pain be crucified Oh, to feel him, oh, to feel Jesus There my heart was cleansed of sin I could have the world but oh, to feel him (To feel him) To feel him
