1. _ Hand Of Providence
Michael w. smith
Providence, providence
See it laying down the cornerstone
The hand of providence - it's evident
For we could never make it on our own
Apportioning the power
Weighing all that it entails
Giving us the fulcrum
And a balance to the scales
Chorus:
Oh, the hand of providence
Is guiding us through choices that we make
Oh, the hand of providence
Is reaching out to help us on our way
Providence, ever since
Any thesis ever entered man
The hand of providence
Has been our best defense
Tho' his ways are sometimes hard to understand
From the dying of a heartbeat
To another soul reborn
From in between and circling
Our thoughts of love and war

3. _ Secret Ambition
Michael w. smith
Young man up on the hillside
Teaching new ways
Each word winning them over
Each heart a kindled flame
Old men watch from the outside
Guarding their prey
Threatened by the voice of the paragon
Leading their lambs away
Leading them far away
Chorus:
Nobody knew his secret ambition
Nobody knew his claim to fame
He broke the old rules steeped in tradition
He tore the holy veil away
Questioning those in powerful position
Running to those who called his name
(but) nobody knew his secret ambition
Was to give his life away
His rage shaking the temple
His word to the wise
His hand healing on the seventh day
His love wearing no disguise
Some say "death to the radical
He's way out of line"
Some say "praise be the miracle
God sends a blessed sign
A blessed sign for troubled times"
Chorus

4. _ All You're Missin' Is A Heartache
Michael w. smith
It's over the line - a shadow of doubt
From outside looking at the "in crowd"
(tempting voices are calling you)
They look mighty fine - a sight to behold
But all that glitters is not gold
(still those voices are calling you)
Chorus:
All you're missin' is a heartache
A disillusion for a keepsake
A life of living with your own mistake
All you're missin' is a heartache
The water is high - you're out on a limb
Well, if you take the fall then it's "sink or swim"
(clouds of reason will follow you)
You're kissing the dark
You're courting your pride
You wonder is it greener on the other side
(but they have nothing to offer you)
Chorus
Tag:
All you're missin', missin' is a heartache
All you're missin', missin' is a heartache
Whoa whoa whoa whoa

5. _ I Hear Leesha
Michael w. smith
Seems like it was only yesterday
She was living here
Yea, she was living here
Lord knows why he's taken her away
It isn't very clear, no it isn't very clear
Into every life a little rain must fall
And losing one you love is like a storm
But storms are passing
Chorus:
I hear leesha
Singing in heaven tonight
And in between the sadness
I hear leesha
Telling me that she's alright
Life goes on even after life
That's what i believe
Yea, that's what i believe
Leesha's gone, but she will still survive
In a memory that i'm keeping here with me
Silencing the voice of mortal tragedy
Listening to whispers of the soul
All is peaceful
Chorus

6. _ Pray For Me
Michael w. smith
Here is where the road divides
Here is where we realize
The sculpting of the father's great design
Thru' time you've been a friend to me
But time is now the enemy
I wish we didn't have to say goodbye
But i know the road he chose for me
Is not the road he chose for you
So as we chase the dreams we're after
Chorus:
Pray for me and i'll pray for you
Pray that we will keep the common ground
Won't you pray for me and i'll pray for you
And one day love will bring us back around again
Painted on our tapestry
We see the way it has to be
Weaving thru' the laughter and the tears
But love will be the tie that binds us
To the time we leave behind us
Memories will be our souvenirs
And i know that thru' it all
The hardest part of love is letting go
But there's a greater love that holds us
Chorus

7. _ On The Other Side
Michael w. smith
I'm not how i used to be
When we hung around
Back when it was you and me
Tearin' up this town
We used to live our lives running from change
Now we don't see eye to eye
I am not the same
Chorus:
And you wonder where i've gone
Well, i've found where i belong
I'm on the other side
True - i used to walk your shore
But i'm not there anymore
I'm on the other side
Years fade like the setting sun
Turning us loose
They give us many ways to run
And many roads to choose
Well, i ran into saving grace
Headed for nowhere
Love showed me another place
And brought me there
Chorus
Why is it hard for you to see
All the changes made in me
Here on the other side
Oh, i could help you understand
And you could join me where i am
I am on the other side

8. _ I Miss The Way
Michael w. smith
Once a true believer
Once there was a fire in your soul
You were the epitome of blessed faith astir
With thirst for holiness
And hunger for the word
Now you move in other circles
To the beat of different drums
And i see only glimpses of the one you used to be
The inspiration that you were to me
Chorus:
I miss the way his love would dance within your eyes
I miss the way his heart was the soul of your life
And somewhere in the saddest part of heaven's room
Our father sheds a tear for you
He's missing you, too
Some are calling you a prodigal
Some aren't calling you at all
But far away someone is calling you back home
Do you hear it anymore out there on your own
Chorus
Once a true believer...

9. _ The Throne
Michael w. smith
Far above the highest heavens
On a throne of crystal light
Dwells the god of all creation
Rays of wonder crown his might
Human voices blend with the angels
Giving praise to god alone
Heavens music rises upward
To the lamb upon the throne
To the lamb upon the throne
Chorus:
Blessing! glory! sing hallelujah!
Shout the saints of god alone
Honor! power! and dominion!
Praises gather at the throne
Oh, they gather at the crystal throne
Gather at the crystal throne
Lightning flashes and thunder echoes
Diamond rainbows fill the sky
Awesome beauty god's provision
Never seen by human eye
Blazing colors show the glory
Of the master artist's plan
Built by god for those who love him
Those who trust the great "i am"
Those who trust the great "i am"
Chorus

10. _ Help You Find Your Way
Michael w. smith
It can be wise
Or it can be a paradox
To seek solace in your solitude
And when it feels
Like you're living in a box
You need someone who believes in you
A promise true when tried
I'll be right here by your side
So whenever your need be
Know that you can lean on me
Chorus:
I'll help you find your way
I'll help you find your way
When you're lost in all the madness
When you're blinded by your doubt
When you need someone to be there for you
I'll help you find your way
Don't keep your thoughts
Locked behind your cellar door
All shrouded in a mystery
Just let them out
That's what friends are for
To give without giving the "third degree"
No need to be ashamed
I've been thru' it just the same
So when your path misleads
Know that you can call on me
Chorus

11. _ Live And Learn
Michael w. smith
Never should have tasted that forbidden fruit
Tell me why do i always do
What i don't want to do
Now, i'm the only reaper of the seeds that i sow
And when i walk the field of my stubborn will
It's a hard row to hoe
There's a price for getting smarter
So i pay what i owe
While bridges burn
Let the shadow fall behind me
I am wiser i know
We live and learn
Always living and learning
Always living and learning
Is it out of the fire, back in to the pan
Is once enough to let it all sink in-or will i do it again
A time for understanding has now come of age
So i heed the word of the counselor and the voice of the sage
Try to see the meaning
Read between every line
When pages turn
There'll be no room for explaining what has been well-defined
We live and learn
Always living and learning
Always living and learning
An engaging temptation had me doing time
'cause when it starts a fire under strong desire
We are partners in crime
But hindsight is clearer
I can where i've gone and never return
It's a new man in the mirror
It's a new freedom song to live and learn
Always living and learning
Always living and learning
