1.	Living God 03:10	lyrics	buy track
Living God (with excerpts from Psalm 84:2,3 ) When I wrote many of these songs, it was in a time where I was desperately longing to hear from God on clarity, direction, and just anything that He wanted to speak. This was one of the songs that flowed from that season. My soul is longing, yes even fainting For the courts of the Lord My heart is crying, my flesh is crying out For the living God Even the sparrow finds its home On Your altars So like a sparrow I fly home To my Father You are the God we’ve been waiting for You are the One that our hearts adore You are the God we’ve been waiting for Come down, come down, be found of us
2.	Meeting Ground 02:52	lyrics	buy track
I will come to the secret hiding place Of the Most High I will run like a deer to the thicket To find my God Where the meeting ground Of heaven and earth is Here in my heart I will come to the holy temple Of the Most High I will bring neither gold nor silver I’ll offer my life You tore the veil from my eyes So the way to Your throne could be open!

4.	While I am Waiting 03:51	lyrics	buy track
While I am waiting I will rest Lay my heart Upon Your chest Here comes peace Here comes faith To meet me while I wait While I am waiting I will sing Stir up the music That burns inside of me Sing out loud What You have sung to me While I’m waiting Cease the storm Still the fear Help will come My God will hear But all though the night He waits with a pen To capture the songs I sing to Him While I am waiting While I am waiting Like a bird upon her nest Waits as the new life Grows while she rests Hope of flight In soon coming days Will keep me while I wait
5.	Deer 03:10	lyrics	buy track
Let me hear Your songs in the wilderness Let me feel Your love fall on my dry heart Let me feel Your light dancing on my face Let me know my broken heart is ok in Your hands As the deer is searching For a drink of water So my heart is thirsting For words from You For You Let me have the faith of a little girl Resting in my Father’s arms, so safe, so secure Till I can see Your light shining on my world Where everything is clear and I can see the way again
6.	Lovesongs 03:08	lyrics	buy track
I wanna be in Your Presence I wanna hear Your still, small voice Singing love songs over me Cause here I am like a little child playing hide and seek Hiding out in the secret place just waiting to hear You speak Come find me… And hold me close
7.	Be 03:21	lyrics	buy track
In my time of need Tell me You’ll be there Holding onto me When I run out of prayer When I am in need And my hope is gone Will You sing over me When I run out of songs Chorus Let me just be In Your presence Let me just Be In Your everlasting arms When I can’t see All the answers Jesus just be My friend In the middle of my questions In the middle of my pain Will You give me peace That I cannot explain In the middle of this battle When I feel alone Will You be my comfort Will You be my home Chorus When I just can’t hold on any more Will You hold only me and don’t let go…

9.	Ashamed 06:01	lyrics	buy track
My heart is raw from weeping My eyes are faint with tears As I lift my heart up in my hands To the only God who hears He will not leave No, He will not turn away The desperate heart Seeking His face… And I will fly high on eagles’ wings I will run again without loosing my breath For the Lord is good to those who wait for Him And I will never be ashamed You said, You will seek Me And You will find Me When you seek Me with all of Your heart
10.	Safe Place 02:34	lyrics	buy track
You are my safe place You surround me like castle walls When the battle is heavy You’re my shield in the storm You're my safe place It’s like being held by the King of angels It’s like finding cover on a stormy day You are my safe place You surround me like castle walls When the battle is heavy You’re my shield in the storm You're my safe place It’s like a perfect meadow in a forest of fears It’s like coming home again after all these years
11.	My Life is in Your hands 04:02	lyrics	buy track
My life is in Your hands My heart is at Your feet All I have All I dream I give it back to Thee Softly, clearly May I hear You speak To know Your ways Know Your paths The thoughts You think toward me Longing for the pleasure of My Father’s blessing and His Grace To guide my thoughts while I wait In the secret place

about

This CD is a collection of songs I have written when in a place of really wanting to hear from God. I recorded them at my house and played all the instruments at my little home studio. It's untuned, imperfect in ways (you can hear my wood floor chime in with a creak here and there!), but honest and I believe every word I sing.

My hope is that it will compel you to the place of prayer with your Father in Heaven and to know that He is listening to your heart. You don't have to know all the answers and it's ok to come with questions. People in the Bible always did that! Just to know that you are loved enough to be real, and that He is your safe place when the world is crazy. He also wants to answer our prayers... sometimes in unexpected ways! How cool is that!!
