I know I love Thee better, Lord
Than any earthly joy:
For Thou hast given me the peace
Which nothing can destroy.
Refrain:
The half has never yet been told,
Of love so full and free;
The half has never yet been told,
The blood, it cleanseth me.
I know that Thou art nearer still
Than any earthly throng;
And sweeter is the thought of Thee
Than any lovely song.
Thou hast put gladness in my heart,
Then may I well be glad;
Without the secret of Thy love,
I could not but be sad.
O Savior, precious Savior mine!
What will Thy presence be,
If such a life of joy can crown
Our walk on earth with Thee?

LYRICS
I was in the crowd
The day that Jesus died
And as He hung upon the cross
His mother cried

I saw the crown of thorns He wore
The stripes upon His back
The water and the blood ran out
And then the sky turned black

My mind was filled with anger
My heart was filled with shame
This man brought only healing
Who could bring Him pain

Why does it seem the strong
Always victimize the weak?
And suddenly I found myself
Standing to my feet

And I cried, "Who nailed Him there?
This Child of peace and mercy
Who nailed Him there?
Come and face me like a man
Who nailed Him there?"

And the crowd began to mock me
I cried, "Oh my God, I just don't understand"
Then I turned and saw the hammer
In my hand

I am just a Roman soldier
An ordinary man
I love my wife and children
I do the best I can

How could I have killed Him?
There must be someone else
There's got to be an answer
I just can't blame myself

Who nailed Him there?
This Child of peace and mercy
Who nailed Him there?
Come and face me like a man
Who nailed Him there?"

And the crowd began to mock me
I cried, "Oh my God, I just don't understand"
Then I turned and saw the hammer
In my hand

I nailed Him there
The child of peace and mercy
I nailed Him there
I am the guilty man

I nailed Him there
With my sins and my transgressions
I cried, "Oh my God, now I understand
When I turned and saw the hammer in my hand"

LYRICS:
(chorus)
Some people gotta learn the hardway
I guess I'm the kinda guy
That has to find out for myself
I had to learn the hardway, Father
I'm on my knees and I'm crying for help

Now I've been high and I've been low
I've been some places that you will not go
I never thought there would come the day
When I wished I never would've lived this way
But I've been searching for a long, long time
I thought the devil was a friend of mine
I turned my back on everything that was true
And wasted years that belong to you

(repeat chorus)

It took so long for me to see
That I'm a victim of nature and me
Left to myself I realize
I am the maker of my own demise

But you accept me every time and again
And never mention just how selfish I've been
Why must it always take me so long to see
That I have fallen but you will forgive me?

(repeat chorus 2x)

The warning signs are like flares in the night
Still I proceed my greed is in spite of the fire
I know that's bound to burn
Why is it that I always gotta learn...
The hardway, the hardway, I had to learn the hardway
The hardway, the hardway, I had to learn the hardway

LYRICS:
You have carried the weight of your secret for way too long
Thinking if there is a place called forgiveness you don't belong
Oh, but freedom can never be found behind those walls
So just let 'em fall, just let 'em fall
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun

How long has been since you felt anything but shame
Child, lift up your eyes 'cause mercy remembers your name
And those tears you've been holding back, let 'em fall down like rain
'Cause today is the day, yeah today is the day
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, The healing has begun
Oh, The healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun

Halellujah, halellujah
Halellujah, halellujah
Just lift your eyes
Lay it down
What once was lost
Has now been found, oh
Oh

There's a world full of people dying from broken hearts
Holding on to the guilt, thinking they fell too far
So don't be afraid to show 'em your beautiful scars
'Cause they're the proof, yeah you're the proof
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun
Oh, the healing has begun

LYRICS:
I'm gonna make a wish this Christmas
I'm gonna say a little prayer
I'm gonna stop here for a moment
Before the moment disappears
The world's in a hurry this December
The city streets and shopping malls
I wish we could slow down and remember
The meaning of it all

Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
And the ones that you love, make sure they know it
And don't miss it, the heart of Christmas

Let's make it feel the way it used to
Let's find the wonder of a child
You can see the magic all around you
Come on, and open up your eyes
Well, you can find it in the warm embrace of your family
Or calling up a long lost friend
You can even find it in the eyes of stranger
When you reach out a helping hand

Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
And the ones that you love, make sure they know it
And don't miss it, the heart of Christmas

In the shadow of a steeple
In a star that lights the way
You will find him in a manger
The heart of Christmas has a name

I'm gonna make a wish this Christmas
I'm gonna say a little prayer

Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can and cherish the moment
And the ones that you love, make sure they know it

Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
And the ones that you love, make sure they know it
And don't miss it, the heart of Christmas

LYRICS:
When the music fades
All is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that's of worth
That will bless your heart
I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what you have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart

I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about you
It's all about you, Jesus
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it
When it's all about you
It's all about you, Jesus

King of endless worth
No one could express
How much you deserve
Though I'm weak and poor
All I have is yours
Every single breath
I'll bring you more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what you have required
You search much deeper within
Through the way things appear
You're looking into my heart

And I'm coming back to the heart of worship
And it's all about you
It's all about you, Jesus
I'm sorry, Lord, for the thing I've made it

All about you

I'll bring you more than a song
I'll bring you more than a song
More than a song

I'll bring you more than a song
I'll bring you more than a song (than a song)

You looking into my heart
Looking into my heart

You looking into my heart
Into my heart

I'll bring you more than a song

I'll bring you more than a song
I'll bring you more than a song

The one-line lyric in this over 6-minute song is a free rendering by the composer of a verse from Proverbs 27:19, and the piece is described by him as "a musical fantasia in its free-flowing form".
The Heart's Reflection was originally written for eight-part mixed chorus as a sort of tone poem to Proverbs 27:19: "Just as the water reflects the face, so one human heart reflects another." Broad and symphonic in nature, it reflects these words freely, exploring the emotions behind each. From the original program notes: "It serves as a poignant reminder of the spiritual kinship that exists within humanity and the necessity that we must see ourselves in the hearts of others." The variety of textures and instrumental colors enhance the tonal spectrum of the original and bring out the expressive nature of the work.

The lyrics of “The Heights” revolve around the theme of finding strength and fearlessness in the presence of the Sovereign Lord. It beautifully captures the essence of faith and personal dependence on a higher power. The repeated phrase, “The Sovereign Lord is my strength,” serves as a reminder that even in the face of challenges, we can find courage and perseverance with God by our side.
The imagery used in the song, particularly the references to greener pastures and quiet waters, paints a vivid picture of finding solace and peace in God’s presence. These metaphors symbolize a spiritual journey, where the search for nourishment, tranquility, and fulfillment leads us to the heights of our faith.
With its empowering message and soul-stirring melody, “The Heights” offers hope and reassurance to anyone facing adversity. It reminds us that no matter how steep our journey may become, we can find strength, rest, and security in God’s presence.

LYRICS:
The Sovereign Lord is my strength
He enables me to go on the heights
And I am not afraid
The Sovereign Lord is my strength
Where are the greener pastures
Where are the quiet waters
The Sovereign Lord is my strength

You are my green pastures
You are my quiet waters
The Sovereign Lord is my strength
