Battle Scars 04:28
BATTLE SCARS This truth revealed, which makes my wounds to never heal. But, reaching for the stars helps me find the strength within- The strength to carry on, with which this journey I must begin. Fiery darts bein’ thrown again Step off the battle field once more Wounded more than twice this time And all I can do when I’m here is say That I love You. I love You. So, here I am again Bearing my soul to You. -Tryin’ to find a way to stand. And, all I can say is I love You. You’re my strength and song in times of war. Even now I know You’re fighting for me. Replace the wounds with scars so I can see… Where Your hand has touched me. I am healed! So, here I am again Bearing my soul to You. -Tryin’ to find a way to stand. And, all I can say is I love You. (2x)

Sometimes I just want to forget Fast forward to the future- Not looking behind to the past Pages of regret. We’ve got a long road ahead And you’re with me every step You said things would be much easier If I wouldn’t try so hard You said things would be much better If I would let down my guard Here we are together We’re going through the wilderness But we see the other side Because we both put up such a fight We’ve got a long road ahead You’ve been with me every step CHORUS: 2nd CHORUS: I know if I let down my guard You would rescue me And I will trust you with everything I will let down my guard

Uncharted 05:25
I used to say I don’t want to be trapped in the negative Only see the down side of things. I used to think it was impossible to breathe life Into these broken wings. Sometimes I don’t want to remember: I Just want to forget That faded memory, a past history. You don’t know where to go Til you know where you’ve been. And, there is a road untraveled I’m meant to begin. I don’t wanna be a burden Like in the past. I want to give to my other half. …don’t wanna be a burden like in the past I want to give to my other half. I know that it was rough in the beginning But, you were key in the process of my healing. I used to drink from a cup half empty; Now I’m sippin’ from a cup half full. You don’t know where to go Til you know where you’ve been. And, we’ve set a new course I can’t wait to begin. And now I’m not a burden- Like in the past. I’m giving to my other half Now I’m not a burden Like in the past I’ll give you my all and we’ll make it last. I used to be afraid that I would stay stuck in a memory, Trapped in history. But, now I know that I’m free to dream with you Next to me. You be the pilot: I’ll bring the dreams. Cuz now I know that I’m free to dream with you next to me.

Hey, hey, oh oh Hey, hey, oh Chorus: And I’m pushing forward with all I have Not looking behind to the place of my past. And, I know that it won’t be too long before The new replaces the old. Verse 1: But, I don’t know what I would do… If something separated me from you. And I think of all the times that I’ve remembered you. You came through. You came through. Bridge: And, I’m praying and hoping and believing for you That He will make all things new. The light floods the darkness and it bleeds hope Into the spark of this heart the whole way through. Chorus: And I’m pushing forward with all that I have Not looking behind to the place of my past. And, I know that it won’t be too long before The new replaces the old. Verse 2: You’re there by my side, Helping me to strive. Because we’re not just gonna live. We are going to thrive. So, I shed this old skin For clothes of white B/c we’re not just gonna live- We are going to thrive. And, I’m praying and hoping and believing for you That He will make all things new. The light floods the darkness and it bleeds hope Into the spark of this heart the whole way through. CHORUS HE WILL RESTORE
