Calling
Our Lord! He is calling
He is calling Your Name!
Can you hear Him, hear Him calling,
He is whispering in your ear.
At Night when you bow down to pray
You’re waiting to hear him say
At Night on bended Knee
You open your heart to him,
Our Lord! He is calling
He is calling Your Name!
Can you hear Him, hear Him calling,
He is whispering in your ear.
I’ve fallen away from
the light of Your Face, dear Lord
And won’t You Guide me
In the path of Your ways, dear Lord
Our Lord! He is calling
He is calling Your Name!
Can you hear Him, hear Him calling,
He is whispering in your ear.
He’s written on my Heart
The love that He gave to me
Then why Lord, can’t I
Then why Lord, can’t I see
Our Lord! He is calling
He is calling Your Name!
Can you hear Him, hear Him calling,
He is whispering in your ear.
He Sacrificed His life
With nails in His feet and hands
He asked them for some wine,
Instead they pierced his side
Our Lord, Bowed His head
Bowed His head and dyed.
On the third day, our Lord
He arose from the dead.
Our Lord! He is calling
He is calling Your Name!
Can you hear Him, hear Him calling,
He is whispering in your ear.(Repeat)

2 AM
Sitting here it’s two in the morning
And I wait to see your face.
When will you come back to see me,
Or will I just pretend?
Where are you?
Where did you go?
I never saw you,
I never saw you go.
And I’m still waiting
To see the likes of you.
When will I feel your touch,
The way that I use to.
Where are you?
Where did you go?
I never saw you,
I never saw you go.
When will I come home,
And will I see in your eyes,
That day when I’ll be
When I will be alive.
Where are you?
Where did you go?
I never saw you,
I never saw you go.
Where are you?
Where did you go?
I never saw you,
I never saw you go.

Crazy
When My Life is going crazy.
You end up right in front of me .
And then I turn and runaway.
But I get tired to find you there…
…next to me and
When will you give up on me.
I guess that it will never be.
You are most Holy Lord.
And I want You to know my name.
And we will shout to the Heavens,
The Praises of Your Name.
And we will sing from mountains high,
To see that You were glad we came.
When my life is going crazy,
You calm the storms in front of me.
All the clouds will roll away,
And let Your light shine on through.
And we will shout to the Heavens,
The Praises of Your Name.
And we will sing from mountains high,
To see that You were glad we came.
When My Life is Going Crazy.
You end up right in front of me.
And this is where you’ve always been.
And I thank you know that I see…You next to me
When will you give up on me.
I know that it will never be.
And You are most Holy Lord.
And I want You to know my name.
And we will shout to the Heavens,
The Praises of Your Name.
And we will sing from mountains high,
To see that You were glad we came.
And we will shout to the Heavens,
The Praises of Your Name.
And we will sing from mountains high,
To see that You were glad we came.
And we will shout, And we will sing,
Your Holy Name, Eternal King.
When My Life is Going Crazy.

Turned
Away(Smile)
Sitting here on the corner of hope and love
Waiting on the chance to come my way
And will I see it when it passes me by?
Or will I sit here with my head and wonder why?
It’s passed me once before
This time I won’t let it get away from me.
When I see You walking by
And that smile is on Your face.
I just thought I’d let You know
That it brightened up my day.
Could I’ve seen You once before, I don’t know
Because my eyes were turned away.
When I see Your children in despair,
I want to reach out my hand.
But it’s my selfish greed that keeps them where they are.
And won’t You help me understand?
That through You everything has a plan.
When I see You walking by
And that smile is on Your face.
I just thought I’d let You know
That it brightened up my day.
Could I’ve seen You once before, I don’t know
Because my eyes were turned away.
This time you saw me walking by,
And I shared my heart just like You do
I just thought I’d let you know
That it brightened up my day,
To smile that way….
Alleluia, Alleluia
Alleluia, Alleluia
Alleluia, Alleluia
Alleluia, Alleluia
Alleluia, Alleluia

Home
Once I stood where I could not see
And there my guilt blinded me.
That day you called my name,
Oh I’ve never felt the same.
I’m Coming home, I’m coming home,
I’m coming home, Again.
I’m finally back where I belong.
And I will always sing your song.
The roads were windy thus far,
And all my souvenirs are scars.
I’m Coming home, I’m coming home,
I’m coming home, Again.
In this world of sin and Shame,
I don’t know whose to blame.
Who I am is from where I’ve been,
And I’m not going back again.
I’m Coming home, I’m coming home,
I’m coming home, Again.
I’m Coming home, I’m coming home,
I’m coming home, Again.
I’m Coming home, I’m coming home,
I’m coming home, Again.

One
In Your Love
I see the light as it comes around the bend.
I look with fear in my eyes because it’s You once again.
I’d like to thank You for today and for Your Love,
It’s through Your Holy Presence that we are one.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we, are we, are we.
Like the lost sheep I’ve wandered astray
And here You come again to help me on my way.
Please forgive me for all the times I’ve let You down,
I come here before You now to lay down my crown.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we, are we, are we.
So here in the dark I am alone, my head bowed down
With my eyes closed tight and my heart open wide,
I ask You to quiet my mind of things that make me blind
Pour out Your Love for me and for all mankind.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we.
For we’re one in Your Love, one in Your Love.
One in Your Love are we, are we, are we.

Unworthy
Light of the World, Shower down
Grace on us once again.
We stumble and fall, while walking with You
You’re there to hold us again.
Looking up at the skies above
We see Your Glory all around
We’ve come here to worship and bow down
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy of You Lord yes we are.
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy of You Lord yes we are.
We are honored to call You, Lord!
King of all Kings You shall be.
The greatest Man to ever walk on this earth
None like You shall there ever be.
Looking up at the skies above
We see Your Glory all around
We’ve come here to worship and bow down
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy
of You Lord yes we are.
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy
of You Lord yes we are.
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy
of You Lord yes we are.
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy
of You Lord yes we are.
Grace from above, You shower down
We Praise You on bended Knee
Live in our hearts, and lead us home,
this is our humble plea
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy
of You Lord yes we are.
For we’re unworthy, unworthy of You Lord
Unworthy of You we are. Unworthy, Unworthy
of You Lord yes we are.
Yes we are.

Alive
Standing high on this mountain,
I see Your Creation,
Come Rolling over the hills.
I feel Your Glory,
As it surrounds me.
It warms my soul.
For I’m alive, alive,
Alive, in you! For I’m alive, alive,
Alive, in you!
As the cloud pour in,
And blanket the land,
I know I’m not alone.
Give me the strength
To carry on,
And live the way of Love.
For I’m alive, alive,
Alive, in you! For I’m alive, alive,
Alive, in you!
Standing here looking around
At the world below
I just don’t know how to feel.
Up where the Birds fly free,
And the breeze blows through the trees
It’s a wonder I’m still here.
For I’m alive, alive,
Alive, in you! For I’m alive, alive,
Alive, in you!

Thank
You
Slowly I watch the time go by,
Right out the big window.
Will I see it again?
To be honest I just don’t know.
What could I have been?
Only that time could tell.
You’ll read the books and see,
Just what became of me.
Thanks for all the time,
That you gave to me.
I hope I did you proud,
Every time that you saw me.
Saw Me, Saw Me.
Where did it all go?
It seems just like yesterday,
I walked out the front door,
And you sent me on my way.
Could you take it back again?
Would you have it another way?
I know that I wouldn’t mind,
To relive yesterday.
Thanks for all the time,
That you gave to me.
I hope I did you proud,
Every time that you saw me.
Saw Me, Saw Me.
All the things that we have shared,
Have made me who I am.
Don’t worry about a thing,
Cause I’m your number one fan.
Thanks for all the time,
That you gave to me.
I hope I did you proud,
Every time that you saw me.
Saw Me, Saw Me.
Thanks for all the time,
That you gave to me.
I hope I did you proud,
Every time that you saw me.
Saw Me, Saw Me, Saw Me, Saw Me.

| Notes
from Tom:
Calling
From the turning point in my faith, I wrote a song to share the joys of love that I experienced. As I reached the ultimate grounds of humility and repentance, I was at the same time finally able to reach the pinnacle if my spiritual journey thus far. I was met by the utmost grace of the holy spirit and surrounded by the purest sence of acceptance. All throughout, I was blessed to be with my sister and her not having the slightest idea to the battle and victory taking place inside my soul. Looking back on that same day of Catechesis in Toronto, I see how God got me to that point. All my destruction and defiance, ultimately lead to my surrender. After taking the biggest leap in my faith, I had just a tiny view of what true love is like. With that view, I vowed I was never 'going back again', 'I'm coming home'
I started off conceptualizing my worst fear. Not knowing if God would forgive me for the life I chose before I chose Him. This fear ended up to be any but just that. At the depths of my aching heart, I expected Him to punish me and ban me for eternity. Okay that may be a little harsh thinking, but I thought that. Come to find out, I could not have been further from the truth. Yes, He did break down my walls of sin and false promises to a rubble and fine powder, only to build me up again as a child to call His own. As always my backward gazing on past mistakes, lead me to find that the farther I strayed away, the closer He was right behind me. The relief of giving up my mental crown to place the seed of peace in my heart, was more fulfilling than anything I can describe. I finally understood the true sense of community and family. And through Christ, we are all one. Being brothers and sisters in Christ is the most powerful vision I get when I think of our world. Through prayer and meditation I began to see God's grace present in my life, and how He revealed Himself to me every day. Perhaps my most beloved song. This one is for the two people in my life that have meant the most. Their tender care and guidance along the way, has made me who I am. I'm proud to call them mommy and daddy. I think that everyone wishes they could go back and redo or relive certain points in their life, and I couldn't think of two better people to experience it all with than them. What becomes of the future, no one knows, but I know thanks to my parents I have been taught the values and morals to stand by and that will endure until that final day. 'Thanks for all the time, I hope I did you proud.' Mom and Dad I love you~ |
