On The Other Side

Michael w. smith
Im not how I used to be
When we hung around
Back when it was you and me
Tearin up this town
We used to live our lives running from change
Now we dont see eye to eye
I am not the same
Chorus:
And you wonder where Ive gone
Well, Ive found where I belong
Im on the other side
True - I used to walk your shore
But Im not there anymore
Im on the other side
Years fade like the setting sun
Turning us loose
They give us many ways to run
And many roads to choose
Well, I ran into saving grace

All Youre Missin Is A Heartache

Michael w. smith
Its over the line - a shadow of doubt
From outside looking at the in crowd
(tempting voices are calling you)
They look mighty fine - a sight to behold
But all that glitters is not gold
(still those voices are calling you)
Chorus:
All youre missin is a heartache
A disillusion for a keepsake
A life of living with your own mistake
All youre missin is a heartache
The water is high - youre out on a limb
Well, if you take the fall then its sink or swim
(clouds of reason will follow you)
Youre kissing the dark
Youre courting your pride
You wonder is it greener on the other side
(but they have nothing to offer you)
Chorus

Anna

Michael w. smith/ wayne kirkpatrick
Jack is in the corner
The dish is with the spoon
The sheep is in the meadow
The cow is on the moon
But I am here with you and I believe
Theres no other place Id rather be
And a promise not to leave you
Is a promise I can keep
Youre my muse
Youre my rhyme
Youre the fire warming this heart of mine
When you hear me say I love you
Anna, do you know how much I do?
So I watch you from a distance
Getting lost within your world
You pretend to be a princess
As you flutter and you twirl
Fragile as the flower in your hair
Dancing in your castle, unaware

Old Enough To Know

Words & music:michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
In the passion your heart is abused
He is pushing you, you have to choose
Oh, rebecca love is never
Easy anymore
Oh, rebecca so afraid of
Losing what is yours
Chorus:
Are you giving in to the pressure
Holding you again, now he tells you
What it takes to be in love
He believes youre old enough
But how you gonna feel tomorrow
When the day reveals
What you believed was for the sake of love
Dont you think youre old enough to know
Youre a breed of few and far between
Holding on to your romantic dream
Oh, rebecca, love is patient
Love would understand

Help You Find Your Way

Michael w. smith
It can be wise
Or it can be a paradox
To seek solace in your solitude
And when it feels
Like youre living in a box
You need someone who believes in you
A promise true when tried
Ill be right here by your side
So whenever your need be
Know that you can lean on me
Chorus:
Ill help you find your way
Ill help you find your way
When youre lost in all the madness
When youre blinded by your doubt
When you need someone to be there for you
Ill help you find your way
Dont keep your thoughts
Locked behind your cellar door

Emily

Words & music: michael w. smith and wayne kirkpatrick
Caught, in an endless time
Waiting for a sign
To show you where to go
Lost, in a silent stare
Looking anywhere
For answers you dont know
Chorus:
On the wire
Balancing your dreams
Hoping ends will meet their means
You feel alone
Uninspired
Well does it help you to
Know that I believe in you
Youre an angel waiting for wings...emily
You, going through this stage
Its a restless age
Young and insecure
Sill, there are doubts to fade

The Throne

Michael w. smith
Far above the highest heavens
On a throne of crystal light
Dwells the God of all creation
Rays of wonder crown his might
Human voices blend with the angels
Giving praise to God alone
Heavens music rises upward
To the lamb upon the throne
To the lamb upon the throne
Chorus:
Blessing! glory! sing hallelujah!
Shout the saints of God alone
Honor! power! and dominion!
Praises gather at the throne
Oh, they gather at the crystal throne
Gather at the crystal throne
Lightning flashes and thunder echoes
Diamond rainbows fill the sky
Awesome beauty gods provision

A Way

Words & music: gary chapman, tim marsh, and michael w. smith
Caught in a dream of where I want to be
Wrapped in a web of where I am
I feel a wall between what is and what should be
You find me waiting for a miracle
You hear me praying for a plan
You are the only one prepared to rescue me
Chorus:
Then you take away the distance
Found between the truth and me
And you give a simple reason to my restless rhyme
Whoa, hide me in the heaven
You have held within your hand
And make a way to find a way to soothe my mind
There is a way that might seem right to me
A dim reflection of whats good
Just an illusion of the best that I can be
But theres another path you offer me
I wish I always understood
Some way you see right through my thoughts

Never Been Unloved

One of my favorite wayne lyrics of all time. I still need to hear it.
I have been unfaithful
I have been unworthy
I have been unrighteous
And I have been unmerciful
I have been unreachable
I have been unteachable
I have been unwilling
And I have been undesirable
Chorus:
Sometimes, I have been unwise
Ive been undone by what Im unsure of
But because of you, and all that you went through
I know that I have never been unloved
I have been unbroken
I have been unmended
I have been uneasy
And Ive been unapproachable
Ive been unemotional
Ive been unexceptional

Straight To The Heart

Words & music: michael w. smith and brent bourgeois
When Im down when my souls in need of rest
Come your words of comfort and of hope
I see your face always smiling back at me
A stream of light shining straight to the heart
Child of god, child of light
Therell be no more lonely nights
Cause you have brightened up my life
Theres a road that leads me to this place
A path of love running straight to the heart
Over the years Ive learned one important thing
Its that real friends shall never truly be apart
You were there in my darkest time of need
With a hand reaching straight to the heart
Child of god, child of light
Therell be no more lonely nights
Cause you have brightened up my life
Take this gift, it is all I have to give
A prayer of love forever straight to the heart
