SONG LYRICS

Million Reasons

Written by: Kimberly Kofoed

Verse 1

You… whispered to me I’m a stranger here, that

Home…was a place that I hold dear but for this

Time…I would learn to walk by faith and trust in what I can’t see, Divine is in me

 

You…picked me up and gave me reason to

Believe…helped me see the things I couldn’t see and

Truth…opened up my mind and then I

saw the glory, our family’s story

 

Pre-chorus

I’d stay up late at night,

and look up in the stars

I wonder where I’ve been,

And I wonder where you are

infused with all the wonder

of this galaxy of light

I feel eternity, in awe tonight….

 

Chorus

There’s a million reasons

Why we are here

There’s a Father pleading

We’ll know He’s near

There’s a Heavenly Mother

reaching out her hand

to feel their love and understand

 

Verse 2

I…ponder on the beauty of this earth and

Why.. seeing your hand brings new birth

Now I choose..

Faith…trusting in your Holy Son, He is my

Rock, my Shepherd my True Defender and

Life…like the canvas painted in the evening

Sky…lights and colors sweeping hues we use His

Grace…every failure, every triumph

teaches us truth, lifts us higher

 

Pre-chorus

From the mountaintop,

there’s more than I can see

I try to breathe it in

and grasp eternity

Connecting to my past,

I feel the future burning bright

Heaven’s at the door, it’s in our sights…

 

Chorus

 

Last Chorus

There’s a million reasons why I believe

From the greatest ocean to the smallest seed

From all things that witness of your loving

plan

Choose to see……understand

 

Outro

You

Whispered to me I’m a stranger here, that

Home

Was a place that I hold dear but for this

Time

I would learn to walk by faith and trust in

What I can’t see, Divine is in me

Rescued Me

Written by: Kimberly Kofoed

Verse 1

I was in a dark place

Felt like I couldn’t breathe

Had no one to turn to

Who could understand me

I was left to sort out

All the mess that’d been made

and then I fell, and made my biggest mistake

Now I’m lost

 

Chorus

Then just like thunder

You came and rescued me

You set me free

my prisoned soul

I was worth fighting for

I was worth dying for

You restored your love

And made me whole

You came and rescued me

 

Verse 2

I was living both lives

Caught up numbing the regret

Trying to avoid pain

I fueled the demons in my head

Crying, pleading for help

But no words could escape

Never thought I’d break through

So trapped in this charade

So I’m lost

 

CHORUS

 Bridge

You made a trade for my broken heart

Pierced the clouds weighed on my soul

Released the pressure with your light

Gave me breath and made me whole

with all the tears that I ever cried

You came in like rain

washed away my pain

Let me feel again

when just like…

Long Ago Far Away

(The Christmas Story)

Long ago, far away

A gentle mother laid her baby

(laid her babe)

In a manger filled with hay

(In a manger filled with hay)

And Jesus was His name

 

Verse 2

Shepherds out on a hill

Keeping watch on the still night

(the still night)

Til a messenger came down

(Til a messenger came down)

And told them of the babe in the tiny town

Halleluia Jesus Christ is born

Halleluia Jesus Christ our Lord

Halleluia Jesus Lord and King

Halleluia to Him all praise we bring

Wise men following a star

Left their home and traveled far away

Til they reached the foretold place

And knelt before their Saviors face

 

CHORUS 

 

Bridge

The world has waited for Him

To save us all from sin

 

Verse 4

Not so long or far away

(Not so long or far away)

A family kneels down to pray for

(to pray for)

the faith to follow that same star

(faith to follow that same star)

That will lead them home to their Savior’s arms

 

CHORUS

 

Outro

This is this story of Christmas,

that a child long ago,

in a manger far away

was born out of love to bring us hope…

of a brighter day

He is the hope …

Of a brighter Day! 4X
