Beauty from Pain lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

Beauty from Pain
by Superchick
Courtesy of ChristianRockLyrics.com

The lights go out all around me
One last candle to keep out the night
And then the darkness surrounds me
I know I’m alive
But I feel like I’ve died
And all that’s left is to accept that it’s over
My dreams ran like sand through the fists that I made
I try to keep warm but I just grow colder
I feel like I’m slipping away

After all this has passed
I still will remain
After I’ve cried my last
There’ll be beauty from pain
Though it won’t be today
Someday I’ll hope again
And there’ll be beauty from pain
You will bring beauty from my pain

My whole world is the pain inside me
The best I can do is just get through the day
When life before is only a memory
I wonder why God let me walk through this place

And though I can’t understand why this happened
I know that I will when I look back someday
And see how You’ve brought beauty from ashes
And made me as gold purified through these flames

Here and I am at the end of me (at the end of me)
Trying to hold to what I can’t see
I forgot how to hope
This night’s been so long
I cling to your promise there will be a dawn

This is a Call lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

This is a Call
by Thousand Foot Krutch
Courtesy of ChristianRockLyrics.com

She fooled all of her friends into thinking she’s so strong
But she still sleeps with the light on
And she acts like it’s all right on, as she smiles again
And her mother lies there sick with cancer
And her friends don’t understand her
She’s a question without answers
Who feels like falling apart.
She knows, she’s so much more than worthless
She needs to find a purpose,
She wonders what she did to deserve this
CHORUS
She’s calling out to you
This is a call, this is a call out
Cause everytime I fall down, I reach out to you
And I’m losing all control now
And my hazard signs are all out
I’m asking you to show me what this life is all about

And he tells everyone a story,
Cause he thinks his life is boring
And he fights so you won’t ignore him,
Cause that’s his biggest fear
And he cries, but you’ll rarely see him do it
And he loves but he’s scared to use it
So he hides behind the music
Cause he likes it that way
And he knows, he’s so much more than worthless
He needs to find the surface
Cause he’s starting to get nervous

CHORUS

Have you ever felt this way before
Cause I don’t wanna hide here anymore
Take me to a place where nothing’s wrong
And thanks for coming, shut the door
And they say some one out there sees us,
Well if you’re real, then save me Jesus
Cause I’ve been this way for far too long
I wasn’t meant to feel alone

CHORUS

Show me what this life is all about
Show me what this life is all about

I remember listening to this song non-stop back in September of 2003. I had just had a minor surgery and then had a shingles outbreak around my incision. The pain was intense and so was the loneliness.

“And her friends don’t understand her
She’s a question without answers
Who feels like falling apart”

Those three lines of the song seemed to define me at that point in my life and spiritual journey. I felt like no one understood me and I grew bitter because of it. Emotionally, I was crumbling and literally falling apart. I’ve never cried so much in a span of one week in my life. I just kept crying out to Jesus telling him that “This is a Call.” I told Him that have lost it emotionally, mentally, and physically. My hazard signs are out. I need you Jesus.

Praise You in this Storm lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

Praise You in this Storm
by Casting Crowns
Courtesy of ChristianRockLyrics.com

I was sure by now
That You would have reached down
And wiped our tears away
Stepped in and saved the day
But once again, I say “Amen”, and it’s still raining

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear Your whisper through the rain
“I’m with you”
And as You mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

I’ll praise You in this storm
And I will life my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I’ve cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm

I remember when
I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry
You raised me up again
My strength is almost gone
How can I carry on
If I can’t find You

As the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
“I’m with you”
And as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise the God who gives
And takes away

I lift my eyes unto the hills
Where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord
The Maker of Heaven and Earth

Beautifully Broken lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

Beautifully Broken
by Ashlee Simpson
Courtesy of AZLyrics.com

It seems like yesterday that my world fell from the sky
It seems like yesterday I didnt know how hard I could cry
It feels like tomorrow I may not get by
But I will try
I will try wipe the tears from my eyes

[Chorus:]
I’m beautifully broken and I don’t mind if you know it
I’m beautifully broken and I don’t care if I show it

Every day is a new day I’m reminded of my past
Everytime theres another storm I know that it wont last
Every moment I’m filled with hope
cause i get another chance
But I will try I will try
Got nothing left to hide

[Chorus]

Without the highs and the lows
Where will we go?
Where will we go?

[Chorus]

I am beautifully broken, I am beautifully broken
I am beautifully broken and I don’t care if I show it
[Repeats til end, and fades out]

My Immortal lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

My Immortal
by Evanescence
Courtesy of AZLyrics.com

I’m so tired of being here
Suppressed by all my childish fears
And if you have to leave
I wish that you would just leave
‘Cause your presence still lingers here
And it won’t leave me alone

These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus:]
When you cried I’d wipe away all of your tears
When you’d scream I’d fight away all of your fears
And I held your hand through all of these years
But you still have
All of me

You used to captivate me
By your resonating light
Now I’m bound by the life you left behind
Your face it haunts
My once pleasant dreams
Your voice it chased away
All the sanity in me

These wounds won’t seem to heal
This pain is just too real
There’s just too much that time cannot erase

[Chorus]

I’ve tried so hard to tell myself that you’re gone
But though you’re still with me
I’ve been alone all along

[Chorus]

Broken lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

Broken
by Seether (featuring Amy Lee of Evanescence)
Courtesy of AZLyrics.com

I wanted you to know I love the way you laugh
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain away
I keep your photograph and I know it serves me well
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

You’ve gone away, you don’t feel me, anymore

The worst is over now and we can breathe again
I wanna hold you high, you steal my pain away
There’s so much left to learn, and no one left to fight
I wanna hold you high and steal your pain

[x2]
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m open
And I don’t feel like I am strong enough
‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

‘Cause I’m broken when I’m lonesome
And I don’t feel right when you’re gone away

You’ve gone away
You don’t feel me here anymore

Chris’ Letter lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

Chris’ Letter
by Seventh Day Slumber
Courtesy of ChristianRockLyrics.com

I said that one day I’d be something and everyone would soon be proud of me
I’d sit and watch the day go by and think of all the things I’d like to be
So many of my dreams have gone and now
I’m left with only emptiness
There’s nothing that can make me better,
Nothing that can take away this pain

Chorus:
And I wonder what you’d say if I were gone
Would you cry? Did you even notice something wrong?

I often wonder what’s to live for. I just want this pain to go away
All I have are fading memories, pieces of my broken yesterday
They say every drop of blood meant something
And every ounce He shed was shed for me
Here I am, I’m waiting for You, crying out. I’ve fallen to my knees

(Chorus)

Caroline lyrics

Caroline
by Seventh Day Slumber
Courtesy of ChristianRockLyrics.com

Where do I begin?
There’s so much I want to say to make it easier
Tomorrow’s on it’s way
Do you believe I want to take your painful memories?
I know you want to run away
I know that you can’t see tomorrow

Chorus:
Caroline, let me wipe away your tears and give you life,
Make you feel beautiful again
Caroline, don’t throw it all away
I’m here tonight to take away your pain.

Yesterday is gone and everything that made you cry has fallen to the ground
I’m here to bring you home, I will always take you back
You haven’t let me down
I know you want to run away
I know that you can’t see tomorrow

(Chorus)

And when you’re feeling al alone and you can’t go on,
Remember I am here
And when you think you’ve gone too far,
I‘ll meet you where you are
My arms are open wide

Oceans from the Rain lyrics

Published by Christy under Lyrics

Oceans from the Rain
by Seventh Day Slumber
Courtesy of ChristianRockLyrics.com

And I’m amazed by You. Cause You’re never far away
And all that I’ve been through, Your love has never changed

Chorus:
You make oceans from the rain
Breathing life into this place
And I will drown inside your love
Until I see your perfect face

And nothing I’ve acquired means anything at all
Cause you’re everything I needed
You’re so much more than I deserve

(Chorus)

And I thank you Lord (repeat 4 times)

(Chorus)

The blood of Jesus can wash your pain away

I absolutely love the last line of this song.

Mountains lyrics

Mountains
by Lonestar

Lucinda Jones, working at IHOP
Ten years worth of bacon, eggs and tears
She’s waited on every creed and color
While waiting on this day to get here
Graveyard shifts, two bit tips
Making every quarter count
Was worth it all to see her son
In that cap and gown

There are times in life when you gotta crawl
Lose your grip, trip and fall
When you can’t lean on no-one else
That’s when you find yourself
I’ve been around and I’ve noticed that
Walking’s easy when the road is flat
Them danged ole hiils’ll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains
So we could learn how to climb

Bobby, Bobby Dunn came back from the war
Lost his leg but they couldn’t take his will
Hell bent to run in that local marathon
He trained through the endless pain and pills
It hurt so bad that sometimes he just had to cry
He didn’t stop until he crossed that finish line

There are times in life when you gotta crawl
Lose your grip, trip and fall
When you can’t lean on no-one else
That’s when you find yourself
I’ve been around and I’ve noticed that
Walking’s easy when the road is flat
Them danged ole hiils’ll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains
So we could learn how to climb

This world ain’t fair
It can knock you on your butt
You can just lie there
Or you can get back up
You gotta get back up

There are times in life when you gotta crawl
Lose your grip, trip and fall
When you can’t lean on no-one else
That’s when you find yourself
I’ve been around and I’ve noticed that
Walking’s easy when the road is flat
Them danged ol’ hiils’ll get you every time
Yeah, the good Lord gave us mountains
(The good Lord gave us mountains)
So we could learn how to climb
Yeah, oh
