I'm Okay 05:39
lyrics
buy track
I’m okay, you’re okay People say that everything’s okay How it is today, is how it’s gonna stay And I'm okay This is true and that is too Truth be told, we'd say anything was cool Why should I aspire to a better way When I'm okay? I need to get my act together, yeah I need to realize that whether or not I've got a thought don't matter This for you and that for me How else did you think that it would be? We agree to disagree always But I'm okay I need to get my act together, yeah I need to realize that whether or not I've got a thought I’m okay and you’re okay It's this crazy game we play It’s all good, or so we hope and pray And I'm okay if I don't think about it Don't even try to sort it out Cause doubt will surely trap me Don’t worry, just be happy Keep calm and carry on my way Cause I'm okay

Chasm in My Heart 06:37
lyrics
buy track
I was born somewhere I’m not from And I’m from anywhere but here And a home is something hard to find There’s a chasm in my heart Won’t you take me to the other side? I am not who I used to be He is gone never to return I am now winnowing my way There’s a chasm in my heart Won’t you take me to the other side? Oh please, won’t you take me home? On my way, on my journey All my days I’ve been waiting Waiting just for you to take my hand I’ve been waiting just for you In a foreign land I have seen what a man will do Just to get where he wants to be I am now standing at the edge There’s a chasm in my heart Won’t you take me to the other side? Oh please, won’t you take me home? Still I’m waiting, yeah I’m waiting I keep waiting, Lord, I’m waiting And I’m waiting just for you Won’t you take me home?

49 Days 05:56
lyrics
buy track
Welcome my friend, let the party begin Celebration of when we were free Well everyone’s weird, hear them talk in the square They’re from nowhere round here Can you see? Up in the room sitting still as a tomb Waiting for who knows whom everyday And back from the dead you kept filling my head Up to the sky you went, yes you did It’s been 49 days since I thought it ended And I’m getting winded When you gonna send it? 49 days since you rose to freedom And I really need some if I’m gonna lead them Down from the sky falls a mystical sight Everyone gets a light I can see I open myself, talk like somebody else Hear the truth that I tell cause I’m free And we never knew just what you would do And just how

At the Crossroads 05:48
lyrics
buy track
Now I'm ready Ready for a change And just like always convictions start to fade So I stand here waiting Waiting for a sign Though it's getting weary and hope has lost its shine And I’m standing at the crossroads Seem so aimless Crippled by this shame I need some patience and some saving grace Let us now get ready Ready for that day When our eyes are opened and the path has been made plain And we're standing at the crossroads Let us come and gather Come and gather near As we lift our hands up and put away our fears And we're standing at the crossroads Come and gather at the crossroads Now I'm ready Ready for a change

Vanity 05:13
lyrics
buy track
What does it profit man to work this hard? One generation makes the next The sun goes up and down The wind blows round and round The rivers feed a famished sea Vanity That’s all I see There is nothing new beneath the sun Anything you do already been done More than you can say More than you can see It’s wearisome futility Vanity, vanity, all I see is vanity Everything seems so meaningless to me There are no memories of our own past What you can do will never last Cause you can’t get enough No you can’t get enough Can’t do enough Can’t be enough Can’t live, can’t die, can’t keep enough Vanity is all I see Everything seems so meaningless What does it profit man to work this hard?

Jubilee 03:08
lyrics
buy track
Jubilee, Jubilee Everything come back to me All my family All my friends I will see them once again I would lose what I have gained For the chance to celebrate Jubilee, Jubilee Well just once in your life You live longer then maybe twice You get back what you have lost And give away what you need not Let those fallow fields be On Jubilee There’s no need to invest Take a loss it’s for the best Everything will be restored If we do as we were told Time to set the debtors free On Jubilee Turn around and see how it all changed All you lost and all that you have gained Set it straight just twice a century Welcome to the Jubilee Jubilee, Jubilee All you’ve lost and long to see All your family All your friends You will see them once again Would you lose what you have gained? Go through hardship suffer pain? For the chance to celebrate Jubilee? Jubilee
