Life Love Other Mysteries lyrics

We were made to love and be loved
But the price this world demands will cost you far too much
I spent so many years just trying to fit in
Now I've found a place in this circle of friends
In a circle of friends we have one Father
In a circle of friends we share this prayer
That every orphaned soul will know
And all will enter in
To the shelter of this circle of friends

The more I know your

power, Lord / The more I'm mindful

/ How casually we speak and sing your
name / How often we have come to You / With

no fear or wonder / And called upon You only for

what we stand to gain / Chorus / God forbid, that I

find You so familiar / That I think of You as less than

who You are / God forbid, that I should speak of You at

VERSE 1
They line the wailing wall
The masses fill up St. Peter's square
Confessions, emotions spill out of desperate prayer
I know they're not alone
They've come to face the penitence stone
I hear the voices
The souls in need of you
cause.....

CHORUS
You are the answer
And the meaning of life
To hearts in darkness
You're the source of the light
As we walk this human road

Verse 1:

Leavin the safe and familiar

with thier hearts set on a heavenly prize.

There were some who layed down thier nets

and some who lay down thier lives

Not sure where they were going

but they did not have to know

cause they knew who had called them

and they said we will go

Chorus:

Down any road

at any cost

where ever you lead we will follow

because we know

If you sing a song a day

You will make a better way

yeah, yeah, yeah

yeah, yeah, yeah
sing a song

sing a song

sing a song

everybody...

When you feel down and out

Sing a song it'll make your day

Here's a time to shout

Sing a song, it'll make a way

Sometimes it's hard to care

Sing a song, it'll make your day

A smile so hard to bear

Sing a song, it'll make a way

VERSE 1

be still my beating heart

love is whispering your name

there were years suffering in the dark

fighting back the tears and pain
but love has kept me safe and sound

those days that seemed like endless nights

can not be found

they're behind me now

CHORUS

gone are the dark days

that had me so confused

now im countin the tender ways

that your love has broken through

You told me no one would love you

If they could see deep inside

You say your friends might desert you

If they knew the truth you hide
But there's one that knows you better than you know yourself

And He still loves you more than anybody else

CHORUS:

Jesus doesn't care what you've done before

How you've rebelled or slammed the door

Words and Music by Michael Omartian & Bruce Sudano

Every single heart needs a home
Everybody needs a touch of human kindness
It's no wonder we feel alone
'Cause all in all we need each other

Everybody has a day
When it seems that everything is going no where
Looking for a touch from above to find God's love
And in it all you know we need each other

You think you're alone there in your silent storm,
But I've seen the tears you've cried.
Falling down and trying to drown,
The flame of hope inside.
Let me tell you now, tell you now...

Chorus:
When you're walking in the dead of night,
When your soul is churning,
When you hope seems out of sight,
Keep the candle burning.
All it takes is one steady heart,
In a world that's turning.

You are lord of life, love and other mysteries
I find in you all I ever need to know

VERSE 1
Some say that life is a stream of romances
To some its a series of choices and chances
While some only live for the curious dances
Of whatever music's at hand

VERSE 2
Some look for light in the eyes of a stranger
While some love the thrill of the edges of danger

All my life You have been with me,
How could I, pretend not to see.
I was walkin on a line,
I was wasting precious time.

All I know is that You love me!
If I call, you will set me free.
It's a promise that You made,
It's the truth that will not change.

Ooh please help me to remember...

[chorus]
My God has never let me down,
My God has turned my world around.
