1. Died With You
(Rom 6:6-8, Gal 2:20, Col 3:1-3)
Whenever I fall down
It falls on me
Whenever I lay down
It’s plain to see
Jesus, You set me free
Jesus, You’re all I need
Jesus, I died with You
Jesus, You set me free
No longer a slave to self
But a slave to You (Rom 6:17-18)
With Your everlasting love
What else would I do?
Jesus, You made me new
Jesus, and I will praise You
Jesus, Your grace runs through
Jesus, and I will praise You
Whenever I may stumble
You’re the rock on which I stand
Whenever I may crumble
Lord You make me whole again
Jesus, You set me free
Jesus, You’re all I need
Jesus, I died with You
Jesus, You set me free
Jesus, You made me new
Jesus, and I will praise You
Jesus, Your grace runs through
Jesus, and I will praise You

2. Cobwebs
(Jer 2:13, Rom 6:20-23)
I always thought
The moon would stay in view
I seem to have lost it in the mirror
So I’ll stand
Back against the wall
I’ll wait all night if I have to.
‘Cause I’ve got nowhere to be
Not a single place
That doesn’t make me sick to see
Yet I can’t seem to move my feet
The cobwebs on my shoes
Seem to have a grip on me
I never thought
Things would get this way
Can’t recognize us anymore
So let’s pretend
That all is well
As we scramble for the door
‘Cause I’ve got nowhere to be
Not a single place
That doesn’t make me sick to see
Yet I can’t seem to move my feet
The cobwebs on my shoes
Seem to have a grip on me
I’m tired of this stalemate
Wake me when it’s over
I’m asking, “are we there yet?”
Just give me an answer (Ecc 2:1-11)
I promise you
We’re running out of time
What, you thought I’d lie?
We’ve done enough of that to last us both a lifetime
All that I’m requesting
Is a window I can see through
You ask me, “are we there yet?”
I wish that I could tell you
I promise you
We’re running out of time
What, you thought I’d lie?
We’ve done enough of that to last us both a lifetime

3. Sleep
(Rom 1:20, Psa 19:1)
I force myself awake
I’m reminded I’m still breathing
You’ve given me this time
And I’m certainly not deserving
Something deep within me
Insists that we’re not happenstance
As sure as blood brings me life
I am certain of my stance
The autumn sun
Gives strength to the day
Lonely as I am
You’ll pave, You’ll pave the way
Now that I’m still standing
I’ve traded in my hand
Moon whispers to sunrise
“Are you sure that man made land?”
Something deep within me
Insists that there’s no chance
Heart whispers to body
“Are you sure that we make man?”
The autumn sun
Gives strength to the day
Lonely as I am
You’ll pave, you’ll pave the way
Tomorrow has arrived to kill today
I’m ready for the storm come what may
And I believe the aurora is here to stay

4. The Tape Doesn’t Lie
(Ecc 1:1-11, Neh 9:17)
I think of all those wasted years that I
Spent chasing vanity
I live by grace alone
‘Cause Lord knows that I am still a Pharisee
But He said, “I will wait
I will wait for
I will wait”
And He said, “I will wait
For you” (2 Pet 3:9-10)
I think of all those countless times that I
Wore the costume I had made
My reflection showed the wolf that I truly was
But that never occurred to me
But He said, “I will wait
I will wait for
I will wait”
And He said, “I will wait
For you”
And I don’t suppose I’ll ever understand
The steadfast love that always guides Your hand
And I don’t suppose I’ll ever understand
The steadfast love that always guides Your hand
(Psa 103:8)

5. Redemptive Word
(Mat 4:17, Phi 3:7-9)
I ain’t got time for this (Jam 4:14)
Lord knows how I’ve
Spent these last few years
Forget what lies behind
Strain forward
To what may lie ahead (Phi 3:12-15)
I ain’t got time for this
Let me save you some of yours
You ain’t got time for this
Of that much I am sure
Let me say to you
One redemptive word
His name is Christ
Don’t waste your life under
Any other name
Just a word to the wise
We all end up the same
So what is it that you’re
Hanging your hat on?
We all live numbered days
There’s no telling if I’ll
Make it through this song (Jam 4:14)
I ain’t got time for this
Let me save you some of yours
You ain’t got time for this
Of that much I am sure
Let me say to you
One redemptive word
His name is Christ
Don’t waste your life under
Any other name
Just a word to the wise

7. You Said
(2 Cor 12:7-10)
Three times I pleaded with You, “please,
Remove this thorn that so pains me”
I felt Your soft hand comfort me
And You said, “I’ll hold you while you weep”
You said, “I’ll hold you while you weep”
He wiped the tears from off my cheek
And said, “let me put you at peace
Whenever life starts to look bleak
Know that you’re strong when you are weak
Know that you’re strong when you are weak”
Your grace flows like a river
Even when the day is done
No faults could ever separate
Me from Your love
(Rom 8:31-39, Heb 7:23-25)
A question stands at times like these
Oh my Lord why waste You on me?
“My son you know not what you say
I wouldn’t have it any other way
wouldn’t have it any other way”
Your grace flows like a river
Even when the day is done
No faults could ever separate
Me from Your love
Your grace flows like a river
Even when the day is done
No faults could ever separate
Me from Your love
Said, “sometimes hope is hard to see”
He just smiled and said, “son, look at me
Death has no hold on you, you see
Do you not know you’ve been set free?
Do you not know you’ve been set...?”

8. rePainting the Room
(Rom 6:20-23)
The walls were never white
But it was too dark for me to see that
I prefer the couch
To my bed anyhow
I still think too much
I still talk too much
I’m more than fine
But how are you?
My good friend
He could save you too
You can never care too much
I still scratch too much
Take the time to go outside
The weather’s nice
(Seth, what would you do with a car
If you caught one?..hmm)
I still stare too much
I still don’t sleep enough
And that’s fine
That’s fine
It’s all fine
I’m fine, fine, fine
My good friend
Could save you too

9. I Was the Spider (Cobwebs pt. II)
(1 Joh 1:8-10, Eph 2:1-10, 1 Tim 1:12-17)
I’ve no one to blame but myself
I’ve no other shame but myself
(Oh No)
I’ve no one to blame but myself
No one can save but my Lord
No one to blame but myself
No one can save but my Lord (Joh 14:6-7)
(Oh No)
(I’ve no one to blame)

10. Glad You Forget
(Isa 43:25, Jer 31:34)
Before the faults I must face
I forgot who I was
This dam has overrun
I fell today
You saw the blood on my hands
But You didn’t run
Instead You call me son (Rom 5:8)
I cried today
Before the scars are replaced
You forgot who I was
And I can’t thank You enough.
You saw the blood on my hands
But You didn’t run
Instead You call me son
I cried today
(and I’m thinking)
How does it fade away?
How can all the debts be paid?
For a man so cold and gray (Col 2:13-15)
What makes the lions lay?
So simple words to say (1 Joh 1:9-10)
For a man so cold and gray
Maybe we’re just too scared
That we’ve all fallen from grace
Does this surprise you?
Maybe we’re just too scared
To take from an outstretched hand
Does this still surprise you?
I can’t keep the score for you anymore
I’ve run out of ink to write all this down
Maybe we’re just too scared
We’ll all break in the end
But I assure you
For every single word you’ve said
And every minute you regret
For all the names shown on that list
There stands a granter of your wish
A chance to wipe the slate and start again
Now I ask you are you ready to cave in? (Rom 10:9-10)
How does it fade away?
How can all the debts be paid?
For a man so cold and gray
What makes the lions lay?
So simple words to say
For a man so cold and gray
Now I ask you, are you ready to cave in?
