Honest To take a peek through Heaven’s door

If glory would allow.


Pretend (The PK Song) What are you doing right now
Sheri LaFontaine/BMI
Sitting here imagining
Your conversation with the King
A house of glass seems to be my home Your battles fought. Your victory’s won
All I ask is that you’re careful with that stone You’ve heard the Master say Well done
I struggle just like anyone else
My greatest enemy is myself Guess I’ll wait to see with my eyes
Don’t want to spoil the big surprise
Now this may come as a bit of a shock But like a child I long know
You may think I’m perfect but I’m not Wish I could pull the shade from that
I’m just trying to do my best window
But it’s hard to breathe beneath this mask
Making Up Our Own God (PK Song)
It’s high time you knew the truth Sheri LaFontaine
I need a savior just like you do
So please excuse this work that isn’t His Love means approval
through Mercy now condones
And I won’t pretend with you His loving kindness means never saying no
Making up our own god as we go
Don’t have a clue what you’re going through
It’s got me thinking it’s best to not judge you His will means you’re happy
We are called to very different lives Christians always glow
Your faults are not at all like mine Doing what feels right must be good for the
soul
Now I’d like to thank the academy Making up our own god as we go
For best new role in honesty
I’ll pray for you and you pray for me Let’s be very real
Til we’re all just where we need to beb Sometimes we go by what we feel
Thinking God must think the way we do
What Are You Doing Right Now Lay aside the word and let your conscience
Sheri LaFontaine/Centergy Music/BMI be your guide

Got the call one year today Making up our own version of Christ
That in the night you’d slipped away We blend in to win them
Into the place we’d dreamed about Worship is a show
I know you’re there without a doubt Sharing a Jesus the Bible wouldn’t know

Thoughts of you come all of the time Making up our own god as we go
I just can’t get you off my mind Now Peace is the answer
I’m sure there’s just so much to do But truth rocks the boat
And I’ve been wondering what you’re up to Go tell the pastor to just go with the flow
Making up our own god as we go
What are you doing right now
I’d love to see the picture somehow His ways are higher
Streets of gold and gates of pearl Higher, than we will ever know
All the beauties of the other world So let’s wake up
(and) Don’t make up our own god as we go
I’d give anything and then some more Peace in the Midst of the Storm
Phil McHugh/Dayspring Music(a div. of All present and accounted for
Word Inc.)/BMI

Even though the winds aren't still


And the waves continue tossing me Not one is missing
From the storm I call His name
For relief from things distressing me Not one left behind

Now so quietly it comes Each name is listed


Strength to find my course again
Though He does so much for me In the Lamb’s book of life
His sweetest gift will always be
What a great celebration as the Father
Peace in the midst of the storm reports
Peace in the midst of the storm
I cry to Him for mercy All present and accounted for
And His great love takes the form
Of peace in the midst of the storm

What tomorrows hold, will they hold Oh the joy. All the surprises

Joy and sadness coming day by day Family they claimed now stand by their side

But I will not be afraid Finally united forevermore

Though I know some storms All present and accounted for

Will come my way

Let my enemy be sure

I will not be lost at sea I’m Rich

There will never come a time P.L. Huffman, Jr/Beaver Lake Music

That with prayer l cannot find

I'm rich in faith and hope and love


All Present and Accounted For
I got more than my share
Sheri LaFontaine/Donna Marie King/©2013
Journey Press Music/BMI I'll be movin' to my mansion just over in
glory

Where I'm a rightful heir


One by one they join the chorus

Of the redeemed, the saints of the Lord


My father owns the cattle on a thousand
Gathered together in one accord hills
I believe I own at least one But how can I expect to win

I stand in amazement to see his face If I never try

Knowin' that I'm his son

I just can't give up now

I've a guardian angel watchin' me I've come too far from where

He'll go everywhere I started from

But when I need my father in a heaven up Nobody told me


above
The road would be easy
I pray just a simple prayer
And I don't believe He's brought me this far

To leave me
He's redeemed and forgiven me for all of
my sins

He took me in Never said there wouldn't be trials

He's buildin' me a mansion beyond compare Never said I wouldn't fall

Hallelujah I'm a millionaire Never said that everything would go

The way I want it to go

But when my back is against the wall

Can’t Give Up Now And I feel all hope is gone

Curtis Burrell / @2000 Savgos Music, Inc. / I'll just lift my head up to the sky
BMI
And say help me to be strong, oh

There will be mountains


Oh, I know You didn't bring me
That I will have to climb
Out here to leave me lonely, oh no
And there will be battles
Even when I can't see clearly
That I will have to fight
I know that You are with me so I can't
But victory or defeat

It's up to me to decide
Tell how Goliath hit the ground

One Day When I Go to Heaven And of the battles won and lost

F.T. Naude and Sheri LaFontaine The wrongs that carried such a cost

Yet God in love, still took your part

One day when I go to Heaven I’m gonna sit Called you a man, after His heart
down with my Lord 3X

One day when I, I go Home


Tell the story, paint the sky

With colored pictures


Oh Brother Moses, sit you down
Tell me who, when and why
And share with me, the parting sea
Tell the story, Tell everything
The burning bush, the holy ground
And when it’s over, Tell it once again.
Up on the mount, with God alone

Holding the law, He wrote in stone


Oh Precious Jesus, I kneel down
You saw His glory so divine
To worship you. You’ve brought me
So bright it made, your face to shine through.

And at your feet I lay my crown

Oh Sister Mary - sit you down Now I could ask about your grace

Go on and tell, Just how it felt Bout why you cared to take my place

Having the Son of God around But I do not need to question why

From the cradle - to the tomb The love is written in your eyes

The risen Christ - the upper room

The Spirit came with rushing wind

And you were filled with God again Greater

Glover Benjamin, Garcia David Arthur,


Cochran Nathan Fay, Graul Barry Earl,
Oh Brother David – sit you down Millard Bart Marshall, Shaffer Robin Troy,
Scheuchzer Mike
Sing me a song – pick any one
Bring your tired There'll be those who will call me

And bring your shame A mistake

Bring your guilt Well that's okay

And bring your pain

Don't you know that's not your name There'll be days I lose the battle

You will always be much more to me Grace says that it doesn't matter

Every day I wrestle with the voices 'Cause the cross already won the war

That keep telling me I'm not right He's Greater, He's Greater

But that's alright I am learning to run freely

'Cause I hear a voice and He calls me Understanding just how He sees me


redeemed
And it makes me love Him more and more
When others say I'll never be enough
He's Greater, He's Greater
And greater is the One living inside of me

Than he who is living in the world

In the world
Only You Can Save
In the world
Sheri LaFontaine/Songs of Greater
And greater is the One living inside of me Vision/BMI

Than he who is living in the world

What can I do to change a soul’s desire

Bring your doubts What can I say to set a heart on fire

And bring your fears Lord it seems my struggle is in vain

Bring your hurt When You’re the only one who brings real
change
And bring your tears

There'll be no condemnation here


I can pray, I can claim
You are holy, righteous and redeemed
I can speak in faith
Every time I fall
Though I battle every day
Try to live in front of them the Christian way
To satan’s plan
Bear the sacrifice of love
I stand here to declare
Try to give the way You gave
I’m not going anywhere
But only You

Lord, Only You can save


If I could say anything about the God I serve

He’s given more grace than I deserve


I see the hurt, that only You can heal
With all the times I’ve failed
You see the heart and everything revealed
And let fear take control
Open up their eyes for mercy’s sake
Still His love prevailed
And may You be the only choice they make
And in my heart I know
I’m Not Going Anywhere

Sheri LaFontaine
To whom shall I go

He’s my only source of hope


If I could say anything about my enemy
There is nothing, there is no one
Never has he given up on me
Who can compare
With all the times before

We’ve met on battleground


Tag
He should know the score
I’m not going anywhere.
He should know by now
I’m holding to the truth

I’m not going anywhere


I’m not going anywhere
No, I shall not be moved.
This is more than just a prayer
I’m not going anywhere
Though the winds may blow

My soul belongs to God alone

And I will never walk away


No Record of Wrong
Vanessa VanWyk, Wesley VanWyk Showing mercy every day

Cultivating love that lasts

The Lord is nigh to them that have a broken Let the past be in the past

Letting freedom have it’s way
And He bindeth the wounds of the spirit

He says come to me, all ye that are weary


Be kind to one another, merciful and
And I will provide, what is needed to heal it tenderhearted

If shattered feelings take control and your Forgiving your brother just as Jesus Christ
hearts been hurt before has forgive you.

There is something you should know

It’s freedom’s way of writing wrong Something More

Where broken hearts can be made strong New Every Morning


Sheri LaFontaine
And it comes by letting go Centergy Music/BMI

Waking up to God's sweet face


Basking in the grace
Forgiveness is better than bitterness and Closing tight memory's door
letting go than holding on Of the stormy night before
I never thought I'd see the light of day
So witness the art of deliverance But...

Cause love keeps no record of wrong His mercies are new every morning
And joy comes with the dawning
Love keeps no record of wrong Birds are singing, freedom's ringing
It's a brand new day
'Cause His mercy is new every morning

So have ye ought against any other man Creation sings His reveille
It's a sunrise symphony
Are you hindering the plan, God promised Refreshing as the morning dew
His rays of hope come shining through
Maybe the sun has come down upon your Promising forgiveness full and free
wrath Well...

But His mercies are new, new every The coffee's steaming
morning The sunlight's streaming down
I must be dreaming 'cause yesterday's
So let us start to live our lives Heartache can't be found

Patterned after Jesus Christ


Now I'm something more
I Love This Living For Him
Sheri LaFontaine He was sitting there in his rocking chair
Centergy Music/BMI Beside his wife of forty years
As a younger man, he'd made big plans
I love this living for Him But all those disappeared
I love this calling the Savior my Friend Now his lap is filled with three grandkids
Looking back to where I've been And his hand is filled with hers
I love this living, I love this living for Him And by the twinkle in his eye
She can read between the lines
Since the day that I met Him
Since the brand new start Now I'm something more than what I ever
Since the sweet surrender of my heart could have dreamed
Closer than a brother
The Lord has been to me Thanks to the hand of God that is leading
There will never be another me
Life I lead

Now some days are a struggle


I'll admit, there's been a few Congratulations
But in the midst of trouble Sheri LaFontaine
His love holds true Christian Taylor Publishing/BMI (God be
And if I'll just keep trusting With You 'Til We Meet)
I'll see the light of day Jeremiah E. Rankin/PD
It's all a part of walking
This gospel way

I Could Have Been Something Missing you already, but I know that you're
Sheri LaFontaine at rest
Christian Taylor Publishing/BMI Smiling through the tears, because you
deserve the best
She was sitting there in the diner chair And I heard that you reached Glory's side
When what she could have been, walked in today
In designer wear with perfect hair So allow me to convey
Their careers meant the world to them
She felt a tug on her clothes Congratulations, you have made it
And she looked down at her son To where the angels trod
He was far too young to know A celebration in the presence
Still she knew she had to try Of Almighty God
She had to make him realize And I sure wish I could be there
To hear Him say, "Well done"
I could have been something Congratulations
The world could have known my name
I could have done something Take your crown and wear it, With a robe of
Worked my way to a life of fame purest white
I could have held on tight You are finally there, The graduation of your
To this old life's greatest reward life
I could have been something And though I'm left here, With feelings
But thanks to you bitter-sweet

'Til we meet Child, I Know the Plans I Have For You

Long before I met Him


God knew and called my name
The Hand of the Lord He made a way to bring me
To the place where I got saved
Sheri LaFontaine And I see how He’s ordered
Christian Taylor Publishing/BMI The steps that I’m taking
(God Leads Us Along) Each and every day
George A. Young/PD So my future is settled
With Him in Glory

sweet
God leads His dear children along Child, I know the plans I have for you
Where the water’s cool flow bathes the That where I am you can be here too
weary one’s feet I am here building, working on making
God leads His dear children along All of your dreams come true
The hand of the Lord is leading me Child, I know the plans I have for you
The hand of the Lord is leading me
Ain't no need to worry, no need to fret Sometimes my heart grows weary
As long as I don't forget that And I sure long for home
The hand of the Lord is leading me I wonder how much longer
'Til He says it’s time to go
Should I go or should I stay Whether it’s in the clouds with
Should I run on or walk away The sound of the trumpet
Should I reach up high Or crossing Jordan’s stream
Should I kneel down low Till I can be with Him
Direct me, Lord, 'cause where you lead I'll And dwell in His presence
go His words will comfort me
(Sure is good to know)

Show Your grace that I may stand Sheri LaFontaine
Show me everything You'd have me to be Christian Taylor Music/BMI
And no matter where I go you take the lead
(Sure is good to see) I picked up the phone and on the other end
My old friend said he'd been born again
He found me when I was searchin' Well, if you could have known him way back
He gave joy when I was sad when
When the future looked uncertain My old friend was sure livin' the life of sin
He gave peace for what's ahead But he said, could we get together? I just
When I failed Him there was mercy gotta testify
And He gave another try God's done some renovating from within to
When I'm in the lowest valley the outside
He always lifts me high
He said, you'll love the new look Sparking like the sun
The smile on my face Reflecting the beauty of God's love

Let your light so shine among men
And burn like a beacon in the night so dark A cooler breeze dances through the

Where heart and Heaven rhyme Centergy Music/BMI (adm. by ICG)
Harvest time
One day I’m gonna sail away
I can feel the changes, the breeze against I can hardly wait ‘till then
my soul Longing for the city
The evening shadows make me long to go Where rejoicing never ends
A familiar voice is calling, my Father's arms Maybe I’m impatient
await But I want it all right now
What a perfect way to end the weary day I’ll start the celebration
All that heaven will allow

While I wait I’ll keep on trying ng


Everywhere To imagine like I’m already home
Jerry Kelso and Sheri LaFontaine/Christian When He calls you’ll see me flyin’
Taylor Publishing/BMI To a land beyond the river where we’ll
spend the sweet forever
Everywhere I go I’ll start to celebrate while I wait
Every time I call
When I need You most Some people think His coming
You hear and answer all Is just our moment to fly
And I am well aware But I’ve found it’s a revelation
That You are always there I can feel it inside
Everywhere I’ll start the praises flowin’
On my last mile below
Every hurt I feel It’s my special way of showin’ Him
Every tear I cry I’m ready to go
When my faith is low
You're still by my side
Even through despair Vision of Tomorrow
You hear my desperate prayer Sheri LaFontaine 2002
Everywhere Centergy Music/BMI (admin. by ICG)

Everywhere this life may lead Doors close in front of me


Everywhere this road takes meLord, That were once familiar paths
I know that You'll be there Routine slips away from me
And from this day until forever That I thought would always last
We'll see it through together Hand in hand But here I stand at this crossroad
Every little smile Unsure what God has planned
Every happiness A whisper to my heart is heard
And by faith I understand
That...

God doesn’t let the sun set


Without a vision of tomorrow
And you’ll never see a shadow fall
Without Him knowing all
And If He should choose to close the door
Somewhere there’s a window
‘Cause God doesn’t let the sun set
Without a vision of tom
