1. _ Give It Away
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick / amy grant
She asked him for forever
And a promise that would last
He said, "babe, you know i love you
But i can't commit to that"
She said "love isn't love
'til you give it away"
A father lived in silence
Saw his son become a man
There was a distance felt between them
'cause he could not understand
That love isn't love
'til you give it away
You gotta give it away
Chorus:
As we live
Moving side by side
May we learn to give
Learn to sacrifice
We can entertain compassion
For a world in need of care
But the road of good intentions
Doesn't lead to anywhere
'cause love isn't love
'til you give it away
You gotta give it away
Chorus
Bridge:
Love is like a river
Flowing down from the giver of life
We drink from the water
And our thirst is no longer denied
You gotta give it away
Chorus
There was a man who walked on water
He came to set the people free
He was the ultimate example
Of what love can truly be
'cause his love was his life
And he gave it away
You gotta give it away

2. _ Friends
Words:deborah d. smith
Music: michael w. smith
Packing up the dreams god planted
In the fertile soil of you
Can't believe the hopes he's granted
Means a chapter in your life is through
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong
Chorus:
And friends are friends forever
If the lord's the lord of them
And a friend will not say "never"
'cause the welcome will not end
Though it's hard to let you go
In the father's hands we know
That a lifetime's not too long to live as friends.
With the faith and love god's given
Springing from the hope we know
We will pray the joy you'll live in
Is the strength that now you show
But we'll keep you close as always
It won't even seem you've gone
'cause our hearts in big and small ways
Will keep the love that keeps us strong

3. _ Cross Of Gold
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
Where do you stand
What is your statement
What is it you're trying to say
What's in your hand
What's in your basement
What's in the cards you don't play
Are you holding the key
Or are you intending
To pick the lock of heaven's gate
It's confusing to me
The message you're sending
And i don't know if i can relate
Chorus:
What's you line
Tell me why you wear your cross of gold
State of mind
Or does it find a way into your soul
Is it a flame
Is it a passion
A symbol of love living in you
Or is it a game
Religion in fashion
Some kind of pahse you're going thru
We all travel the extremes
From cellar to rafter
Looking for a place in the sun
So i'm trying to see
What you're headed after
But i don't know where you're coming from
Chorus bridge: (spoken)
For some it's simply something to wear around your neck
Just a chain
Jewelry
Is it decoration?
Is it an icon
Or proclomation?
An icon of what?
What?
For some it's simply something to wear around your neck
Just a chain
It means a lot more than that to me

4. _ Color Blind
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
There's not a world of difference
Out in the world tonight
Between this world of people
Red, yellow, black and white
But instead of riding a rainbow of love
We still are fighting with prejudice gloves
Of anger
With something to claim
But nothing to gain so
Chorus:
Why can't we be color blind
You know we should
Be living together
And we'd find a reason and rhyme
I know we would
'cause we could see better
If we could be color blind
Somebody's just assuming
He's up to nothing good
'cause he's not like the others
There goes the neighborhood
What kind of world are we living in
Whe we judge a man by the tone of his skin
It's crazy
'cause he has a heart
Like you have a heart and
Chorus
Bridge:
It'd be so fine
To be color blind
To open our eyes
And see color blind
I know this world would be a better place
The only race would be the human race
All of those barriers would be erased
Why can't we be color blind

5. _ Somewhere Somehow
Michael w. smith / david foster / wayne kirkpatrick / amy grant
Standing in our silence
I hear my heart beating
And if only i could choose
I'd stay here with you
But hold me 'til the train is leaving
Somewhere down the line
After you're gone from sight
Our love will be the same
And, whispering your name,
I'll cling to you with all my might
Let me dream of you
But it's true
And wake me up when this is over
Love will be there when this is over and
Chorus:
Somewhere far beyond today
I will find a way to find you
And somehow thru the lonely nights
I will leave a light in the dark
Let it lead you to my heart
There's a love inside us
Deep down inside
That goes without saying
Don't say a word
But i'll tell you just the same
And that love will fan the flame
And that flame will warm the heart that's waiting
You are mine and i'll wait for you my love
You are mine it may take some time
Even if it takes a lifetime
Tell me you'll wait
Chorus
Bridge:
And somewhere alone
I will be praying you home
I know that somehow our love
Our love will lead me to your arms

6. _ Out Of This World
Michael w. smith / deborah d. smith / amy grant / beverly darnall
Take stock of your life
What's wrong and what's right
Empty pockets, got no green
Don't you know sunshine is free
What breaks have you had
Some good and some bad
Wanna go but got no car
Dreaming dreams can take you far
Chorus: you will find that life's worth living
In this world, it's out of this world
With a little love and a little giving
In this world, it's out of this world
Look ot the future
Who's in the picture
Say your love life's just a dream
Still you've got a friend in me
Today, tomorrow
Laughter and sorrow
Gonna be some lows and highs
Might as well enjoy the ride

7. _ Love One Another
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
I had a dream that i was speaking
With a prophet from the land of wise
In a crowd of people from the land of troubled hearts
I said "we've come here for answers-
A solution to our world's demise"
He said the journey would be long
But here's where you start
Chorus:
Love one another
Love one another
Work it in to work it out
There could never be enough
Love one another
Love one another
'cause you know without a doubt
You can change your world with love
It was a simple conclusion
But i thought that it was rather profound
Just a fundamental law that we should all live by
I took it in to tomorrow
Yea, i walked the earth but i never found
Any corner of the world
Where this did not apply
Chorus
Bridge:
And looking out i saw no method to the madness there
Like in a vision from the isle of patmos, i was scared
It was a revelation
Love is getting rare
The people of the land united
And in my dream we all agreed
That we should start again
And this would be our creed...

8. _ Picture Perfect
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
Pull all your hair up
Dab on the make-up
Trying hard to look so pristine
Like a face in a magazine
Those fancy dressers and
Media pressure
Have got you feeling so plain and small
If you don't look like a paper doll
In a world where the goal is
To be like the joneses
It's guaranteed to drive you wild
Keeping up with the latest style
Gaze in the mirror
You want the glamour
And the grace of a movie star
But i like you the way you are
You are the only one i'm dreaming of
'cause baby don't you know that i love
Chorus:
You, girl
You don't have to be picture perfect
To be in my world
Girl
You don't have to be picture perfect
To fit the frame
You're tender, you're tactful
Girl, you're a natural
You possess a heart that's true
That's what i like about you
One in a million
Yea, that's a given
There's a beauty inside of you
And it show on the outside too
No competition, you're way in the lead
And baby, don't you know that i need...

9. _ I Will Be Here For You
when you feel the sunlight
Fade into the cold night
Don't know where to turn
I don't know where to turn
And all the dreams you're dreaming
Seem to lose their meaning
Let me in your world
Baby, let me in your world
All you need is someone you can hold
Don't be sad, you're not alone
Chorus:
I will be here for you
Somewhere in the night
Somewhere in the night
I'll shine a light for you
Somewhere in the night
I'll be standing by
I will be here for you
In this world of strangers
Of cold unfriendly faces <------------
Someone you can trust
Oh there's someone you can trust
I will be your shelter
I'll give you my shoulder
Just reach out for my love
Reach out for my love
Call my name and my heart will hear
I will be there, there's nothing to fear

10. _ Somebody Love Me
Michael w. smith / wayne kirkpatrick
Counting every moment
Biding all my time
Standing out here on my own
Searching for that someone
To heal this heart of mine
And keep me from being alone
But when will it be
And how will i know
I don't want to wait here forever
Chorus:
Somebody love me
Come and carry me away
Somebody need me
To be the blue in their grey
Somebody want me
The way i've always dreamed it could be
Won't somebody love me, love me
I'm waiting for somebody
To dance across the floor
Sweeping me off of my feet
I'm looking for the right one
To open up that door
And offer me a tender retreat
It's like wanting to sing
But needing a song
When will i hear the music playing

11. _ I Wanna Tell The World
Michael w. smith / mark heimermann / toby mckeehan
I saw you
And you saw me
And i didn't even know your name
Just one look
That was all it took
And i knew i'd never be the same
If walkin' on air compares to what i feel
Then how can i keep it sealed when...
Chorus:
I wanna tell the world
If the smile on my face
Hasn't given me away already
I wanna tell the world
There ain't no way to hide it
Your love has got me flyin' high
Since the day
That you looked my way
I knew we were meant to be together
Now i thank the lord
For a love like yours
'cause i know it's gonna last forever
It's hard to believe my dreams have all come true
And i'm so inlove with you that...
Chorus
Bridge:
I just want the world to know
Love has got me good to go
[i wanna tell the world, i wanna tell the world]
I have got to get it out
She is all i think about
[i wanna tell the world, i wanna tell the world]
It's something' that i need to say
Love has overtaken me
Chorus
