Give Him Roots - Clay Crosse
So many voices in his ear
Are they playing on his fears
It's a bad situation
All the way around
But with a solid foundation
He's gonna stand his ground
Take a little time
Plant the seeds
Give him reason to believe
Chorus:
Give him roots, and give him wings
And he'll grow up, to do great things
Let him know the joy, that he brings
Teach him the value of the truth
Oh, you got to give him roots, give him wings
When he comes to you
And he needs your help
And he's so unsure of himself
Give him vision
So he can see the light
Let him know the difference between wrong and right
Share the wisdom
Of your peers
There'll be laughter
There'll be tears
Chorus
Bridge:
He should aim high as the sky
There ain't nothing he can't do
If he'll only try
Chorus

I Call Your Name - Clay Crosse
For so long, I searched for answers
I looked in places wise men never go
But when I put my trust in Your love
I found the truth some wise men never know
Lost and alone till Your light shined
Anytime, night or day
I just reach out
You're never far away
Chorus:
Whenever I'm feelin' low
I call Your name (it lifts me up)
No other words feel the same
I call Your name
I call out Your name
I na world that's always changing
It's hard to find some reason to believe
The time has come - no more waiting
With You I have all I'll ever need
I'm thankfull You reached out to me (Reached out to me)
I feel that I can touch the sky
Your love gave me wings now I can fly
Whenever I'm feelin' low
I call Your name (it lifts me up)
No other words feel the same
I call Your name
I call out Your name
I stopped runnin'
I stopped hidin'
'Cause now I know it was meant to be
Love so strong
Brings me to my knees
Whenever I'm feelin' low
I call Your name (it lifts me up)
No other words feel the same
I call Your name
I call out Your name

I Surrender All - Clay Crosse
I have wrestled in the darkness of this lonely pilgrim land
Raising strong and mighty fortresses, that I alone command
But the castles I've constructed, by the strength of my own hand
Are just temporary kingdoms on foundations made of sand
In the middle of the battle, I believe I've finally found
I'll never know the thrill of victory, 'till I'm willin' to lay down
All my weapons of defense, and earthly strategies of war
So I'm layin' down my arms and runnin' helplessly to Yours
Chorus
I surrender all, my silent hopes and fears
Though the price to follow, costs me everything
I surrender all, my human soul desires
If sacrifice requires
That all my kingdoms fall
I surrender all
If the source of my ambition, is the treasure I obtain
If I measure successes, on scale of earthly gain
If the focus of my vision is the status I attain
My accomplishments are worthless and my efforts are in vain
So I lay aside these trophies, to pursue a higher crown
And should you choose somehow to use the life I willingly lay down
I surrender all the triumhs, for it's only by Your grace
I relinquish all the glory, I surrender all the praise
Chorus
Bridge:
Everything I am, all I've done and all I've known
Now belongs to you the life I live is not my own
Just as Abraham laid Isaac, on the sacrificial fire
If all I have, is all that You desire
I surrender all
I surrender all, my silent hopes and fears
Though the price to follow, costs me everything
I surrender all, my human soul desires
If sacrifice requires
That all my kingdoms fall
Let all my kingdoms fall
I surrender all

If That's What It Takes - Clay Crosse
Say you fell out of love
With no place to stand
Say your heart's on the mend
From a broken romance
Say you don't want to trust
'Cause it hurts too much
And you think I'd never understand
Tell me what have I got to do
To make a believer of you?
Chorus:
Do I have to turn water into wine
Turn some stones into bread?
Do I have to paint my heart across the sky
In a blazing shade of red
Do I have to push the sun into the sea?
To make you fall in love with me
If that's what it takes, then let it be
Say you don't need my love
But I know it's a lie
When you say I shouldn't even try
Tell me what have I got to lose
To make a believer of you?
Chorus
You need me to turn the tide of your ocean
Let me set your heart back into motion
Chorus

Love In The Right Hands - Clay Crosse
You've been hurt before
Lost many wars
And you realize the danger you're in
Without Him in your heart
To make a new start
You're taking a chance you'll get hurt again
Don't be afraid
It don't have to be that way .....remember
Chorus:
Love in the right hands
Is like sunlight burnin' through the mornin' sky
Love in the right hands
Is a powerful thing
So put your hand in His
He'll be there for you
He'll help you get through
When the pressures in this world surround you
You know it will rain
But He'll soften the pain
You'll find shelter with His arms around you
Don't be afraid
Have faith in Him .....remember
Chorus
I would never lie
I promise He will never let you down or make you cry
Oh no, you'll always be together
He'll be true to you forever, all your life
Remember .....
Chorus

Midnight Cry - Clay Crosse
I hear the sound
Of a mighty rushing wind
And it's closer now
Than it's ever been
I can almost hear the trumpet
As Gabriel sounds the call
And at the midnight cry
We'll be going home
I look around me
I see prophecies fullfilled
Signs of the times
They're appearing everywhere
I can almost see the Father
Sayin' Son go get my children
And at the midnight cry
We'll be going home
Chorus:
When Jesus steps out
On a cloud to call His children
The dead in Christ shall rise
To meet Him in the air
And then those that remain
Shall be quickly changed
At the midnight cry
We'll be going home
I look around me
I see prophecies fullfilled
Signs of the times
They're appearing everywhere
I can almost see the Father
Sayin' Son go get my children
And at the midnight cry
We'll be going home
Chorus:
When Jesus steps out
On a cloud to call His children
The dead in Christ shall rise
To meet Him in the air
And then those that remain
Shall be quickly changed
At the midnight cry
We'll be going home

My Place Is With You - Clay Crosse
I've walked along a hundred highways
Some I wish I could forget
And I've burned a lot of bridges
But there's not one that I regret
'Cause every path I've taken
They all have led me to
Knowing my place, my place is with You
I've had my promises forsaken
In too many empty words
And I'm amazed and so astounded
That I won't get what I deserve
Whatever lies I've lived for
I have finally found the truth
I know my place, my place is with You
Bridge:
You are my treasure forever
The one dream I've searched for
I've not been given my tomorrows
I'm only certain of today
And if I don't see another sunrise
I will not have to be afraid
I know we all will be together
When all my days are through
I know my place, my place is with You
My place is with You
My place is with You
My place is with You

One Heart (duet with Kathy Triccoli) - Clay Crosse
There's a new church on the horizon
Made of light, not of stone
Calling out to all creation
You are not alone
Lions and lambs, saints and sinners
Best of friends, enemies
Woman and man, losers and winners
They are all, in you and me (we are)
Chorus:
One heart, looking for answers
One soul, finding our way in the dark
One dream, we share together
We are all a part of one heart
Out in the cold, there are faces
Hidden by, the wind and rain
Hold out your hand, someone will take it
They're gonna bring, you home again
Chorus
Bridge:
Around the erth tonight
The fires are burning
Tears are falling, from the sky
Still the world keeps turning
Chorus

Where Angels Dare - Clay Crosse
Outside in a winter world
Sits a woman all alone
It's not the air that seems so cold
It's the love she's never known
Outside in a winter world
A lonely child roams
Will ever loving arms unfold
To give his soul a home
So they're living on hopes, and they're living on dreams
While the devil is pushing them to extremes
Can their spirits be strong, when for loving they long
For the day will come, when they must move on
Chorus:
Where angels dare to walk, there you must walk
Where angels dare
Outside in a winter world
There's a man who's lost his love
So many secrets left untold
Should he turn and look above
Outside in a winter world
One old man sits alone
He thinks of all the years gone by
And what little love he's known
So they're living on hopes, and they're living on dreams
While the devil is pushing them to extremes
Can their spirits be strong, when for loving they long
For the day will come, when they must move on
Where angels dare to walk, there you must walk
Where angels dare
Where angels dare to love, there you must love
Where angels dare
We all have troubles in our lives that we must face
We're all just players in this game we call the human race
The human race

Your Love Is Working In My Life - Clay Crosse
I've got a secret been hiding oh so long
Trying hard to keep it and never tell anyone, but
It's getting hard a little harder evry day
I feel it moving inside me, moving in mysterious ways
And I'm not alone no matter what I do
No matter where I go I know
I'm gonna be with You
Chorus:
Your love is working in my life
I can feel it every day
You pick me up and take me higher
But I'm not afraid
'Cause I know Your love is working in my life
Always so independent, thought I could stand alone
I never needed anything from anyone
But since You found me and I found You
You reached out to me
And showed me what the power of love can do
Your love is working in my life
I can feel it every day
You pick me up and take me higher
But I'm not afraid
'Cause I know Your love is working in my life
I don't know just where this road is leading
But as long as You hold my hand
I'll keep believing
Your love is working in my life
I can feel it every day
You pick me up and take me higher
But I'm not afraid
'Cause I know Your love is working in my life
No I am not afraid
'Cause I know Your love is working in my life
