Little Balloon
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI), Music and Lyrics by Jennifer Somers (BMI) and Tyler Somers (BMI)

Little balloon goes flying in the air
Little balloon, come on down from there
My skirt is trailing in the dirt below
I follow close till my breath starts to go

Evergreen trees raise their voice as one
Branches wide, offering their love
I try to climb; I want to touch the stars
Sap in my hair, I don’t make it far

Always how my story ends
Feels like I’m slipping from your hand
Try and try, time and time again
I want to hold on; hope I can

Grassy hills, far as I can see
Running fast, through a sea of green
I trip and fall, my face meets the ground
Gently weeping, waiting to be found

Always how my story ends
Feels like I’m slipping from your hand
Try and try, time and time again
I want to hold on; hope I can

No one is able to steal what is in Your hands

Always how my story ends
Feels like I’m slipping from your hand
Try and try, time and time again
Try and try, time and time again
Try and try, time and time again
I want to hold on; hope I can

Abide

Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Tyler Somers (BMI) and Jennifer Somers (BMI)

You strive, o man, and you strive again, your heart too proud to rest
You labor on, singing those songs, to cover your weakness
Do you fail to recall who you really are and Who caused you to be?
Return o man; return and rest, to a burden light and yoke easy

Abide in your Savior
Abide in His love
The labor of God is to trust in the Son

All you possess…do you forget, as if by your own strength
you earned it? No. He gave you all, everything you have.
Your righteousness, your life, your breath, your daily bread and wine,
His blood, His flesh, His love, His death, Your faith and endless life

Abide in your Savior
Abide in His love
The labor of God is to trust in the Son

Open up your doors
O my heart and soul
Open up your doors
Let the King come in
Let the King come in

Abide in me Savior
Abide in me Love
And daily I'll take my cross, follow after you Lord

Abide in me Savior
Abide in me Love
The labor of God is to trust

Skyline Hill
Copyright 2010 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Jennifer Somers (BMI) and Tyler Somers (BMI)
Recorded in October and November 2011 at Sputnik Studios (Nashville, TN)

Dawn breaks over Skyline Hill
Beauty and grace, all is still
Canvassing this sight, I'm sure
There are no words for this

Your breath is heavy on my skin
I close my eyes, breathe out and in
Spinning 'round, a steady rhythm
There are no words for this

And I don't know what to say, to properly convey
The lines of this earth, the lines of your face
I am small and unsure, but more and more I learn
There are no words for this

Tears roll gently down my face
I lick my lips for the salty taste
Reveling in deep, deep grace
There are no words for this

And I don't know what to say, to properly convey
The lines of this earth, the lines of your face
I am small and unsure, but more and more I learn
There are no words; there are no words
There are no words for this

When Darkness Falls
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Jennifer Somers (BMI) and Tyler Somers (BMI)
Recorded in November 2011 at Sputnik Sound (Nashville, TN)

When darkness falls at evening time
And all the world is still
My heart feels restless, oh my God
It longs to be filled

Oh Father rescue me from doubt
Deliver me from grief
Let your joy in me abound
Remove my unbelief, remove my unbelief

I hear the wind rush through the trees
A peaceful whistling sound
But still my soul is not at ease
And sleep cannot be found

You are stillness, you are quiet
You are comfort and peace

Fear Thou Not
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Tyler Somers (BMI)

Though the enemy approach thee in the ominous, cold night
Though ye hear his dreadful footsteps and the whisper of his lies
Though he threaten and accuse thee, though he shoot arrows of fire
Fear thou not, fear thou not

For I am with thee
For I am thy God
And I will strengthen thee
Fear thou not, fear thou not

Though the tempest rage callously and the dawn seem far from sight
Though the wind strike home and family, and tears pour from thine eyes
Though the ground beneath be tested, and a tremor felt inside
Fear thou not, fear thou not

For I am with thee
For I am thy God
And I will strengthen thee
Fear thou not, fear thou not

Though thy flesh wage war against thee, thy Spirit day by day
Though the vice thou by the Spirit mortified and pledged to hate
Though it waken from its slumber, and vow to overtake
Fear thou not, fear thou not

For I am with thee
For I am thy God
And I will strengthen thee
Fear thou not, fear thou not

O That The Light
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Tyler Somers (BMI) and Jennifer Somers (BMI)

You surrendered your body to the lust of your eyes
Persisted in the wicked and corrupted your mind
Addicted and masking those habits with lies
You petitioned to death and objected to life

You spent all the money you borrowed and stole
Called the demons your friends and loved ones your foes
How we tried to love you, but we didn’t know
the depths of the evil, the extent of its hold

So you boarded your windows to shut out the day
Hid in the darkness your sins and your shame
You seized and devoured, you drove away
all the lovely and beautiful, but still there remains

…Grace

O that the Light might find you
O that the Light might find you
O that the Light might find you
And open your eyes
And open your eyes

O let it open your eyes
Open your eyes

O that the Light might find you
O that the Light might find you

You Keep Loving Me
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Jennifer Somers (BMI)
Recorded October 6th in Percy Warner Park in the mid-morning (Nashville, TN)

Sometimes I feel like a failure
There I’ve said it out loud
And I’m so afraid that I will never measure up
To what You want for me, but somehow
You keep loving me; You keep loving me

I’ve been sitting on this porch over an hour
Watching my neighbors live their distant lives
And the birds are singing songs that sound familiar
And I want to join them, but I don’t know how
Still You keep loving me; You keep loving me

And I confess sometimes I think I’m better on my own
I can handle this alone
Shows how much I know
And I can’t understand why You still woo my tired heart
Try to fill the vacant parts
Guess that’s part of who You are

'Cause You keep loving me
You keep loving me
You keep loving me
You keep loving me

Sometimes I feel like a failure
There I've said it

Psalm 86
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Tyler Somers (BMI) and Jennifer Somers (BMI)

O Lord my God, incline Your ear
and answer me for I am poor.
Preserve my life, rescue this slave
who trusts in You, O Lord my God

O Lord my God, show me Your Grace
To you I cry all the day
Make glad this soul, Your servant save
My soul I lift, to You my God

Teach me Your way and I will walk in Your truth
Unite my heart that I may fear only You

O Lord my God, you are so good
Quick to forgive and bountiful
in lovingkindness to everyone
who calls on you, O Lord my God

Teach me Your way and I will walk in Your truth
Unite my heart that I may fear only You, only You, only You

O Lord my God, I will give thanks
with my whole heart and glorify
Your name forever, for You have saved
my soul from Hell, O Lord my God

Teach me Your way and I will walk in Your truth
Unite my heart that I may fear only You
Teach me Your way and I will walk in Your truth
Unite my heart that I may fear only You, only You, only You, only You

See The Conqueror
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Verse Lyrics by Christopher Wordsworth (1807-1880), 1862.
Bridge Lyrics by Jennifer Somers (BMI), Tyler Somers (BMI), and Mitch Dane (ASCAP)
Music by Jennifer Somers (BMI), Tyler Somers (BMI), and Mitch Dane (ASCAP)

See the Conqueror mounts in triumph
See the King in royal state
Riding on the clouds His chariot
To his heavenly palace gate

Hark the choirs of angel voices
Joyful alleluias sing
And the portals high are lifted
to receive their heavenly King.

Who is this that comes in glory
with the trump of jubilee?
Lord of battles, God of armies,
He has gained the victory!

He who on the cross did suffer!
He who from the grave arose!
He has vanquished sin and satan!
He by death has spoiled his foes!

They raced to the tomb, angels stood by
Mary was weeping for the empty inside
For the sins of the world, for the sake of His bride
He went to His death, and behold, He’s alive!
He's alive! O He's alive!

Thou hast raised our human nature
In the clouds to God’s right hand
There we sit in heavenly places
There with Thee in glory stand

Jesus reigns adorned by angels
Man with God is on the throne
Mighty Lord in Thine ascension
We by faith behold our own
We by faith behold our own

Kingdom of Heaven
Copyright 2011 One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
Music and Lyrics by Tyler Somers (BMI) and Jennifer Somers (BMI)

Where death shall be no more
No mourning, crying, or pain
Every tear He'll wipe away
In the Kingdom of Heaven

Where nothing is accursed,
A city with a crystal river
The throne of God and of the Lamb
In the Kingdom of Heaven

Set your mind, your mind, your mind, on things above
Set your eyes, your eyes, your eyes on the risen Son

Where there shall be no night
Nor need for sun to shine
The Lord Himself will be the light
In the Kingdom of Heaven

Set your mind, your mind, your mind, on things above
Set your eyes, your eyes, your eyes on the risen Son

Behold, the home of God is with man (4x)

Behold, the home of God is with man (Set your mind, your mind, your mind, on things above)
Behold, the home of God is with man (Set your eyes, your eyes, your eyes on risen Son)
Set your mind, your mind, your mind, on things above
Let your heart, your heart, your heart, give Him all your love

O let the thirsty come
O let the one who wants
Drink freely from the water
Of the Kingdom of Heaven

Song for You
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

my voice you didn’t know, didn’t know
i called you had to go, had to go
back to your little world
where nothing is strange

you set out on your own, on your own
you said, i’m heading home, heading home
back to the life you know
neatly arranged

I have done for you
everything my love
hear my song for you
I will not hold my tongue

it’s late, your getting cold, getting cold
you try to keep warm, but you’re alone, you’re alone
the dark streets are empty now | and the wind starts to blow

I have done for you
everything my love
hear My song for you
I will not hold my tongue
open your heart, open your heart
for I have loved you from the start
I will never harm you, come my love
So come
So come

I have done for you
everything my love
hear My song for you
I will not hold my tongue
open your heart, open your heart
for I have loved you
open your heart, open your heart
for I have loved you from the start

This is Just So Beautiful
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

a little sparrow is serenading me
brand new melodies, songs so sweet
the roses' aroma is flying in the breeze
i close my eyes, breathe in deep

yesterday is gone
today i can see, o today i can see

my, my, my, for the very first time
i waved goodbye, bye, bye
to what used to weight me down
my, my, my everything’s alright
the sun is shining down
i’m looking all around
and this is just so beautiful

i felt forgiveness in the deep recesses of my soul
i was so empty, now i’m full, i'm whole
the world is cold and so very, very cruel
but the sparrows and the roses remind me there’s still so much good

yesterday is gone
today i can see, o today i believe

my, my, my, for the very first time
i waved goodbye, bye, bye
to what used to weight me down
my, my, my everything’s alright
the sun is shining down
i’m looking all around
and this is just so beautiful

oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

my, my, my, for the very first time
i waved goodbye, bye, bye
to what used to weight me down
my, my, my everything’s alright
the sun is shining down
i’m looking all around
and this is just so beautiful

Dreaming of Peace
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

i see people on the corner holding their signs
people in the road forming a picket line
want the world to know they’re here
trying to make their message clear
i honk for peace and hear them cheer

watch them smile in my rearview mirror
keep on driving, just pass on by
i’ll honk again at the next sign
it’s hard to face reality, so i’ll just keep on dreaming

it’s plain to see, we don’t have the answers
but we think we know, and so it goes
it’s plain to see, we don’t have it together
but we think we know, so it goes on

students in the green arms intertwined
candles lit, swaying side to side
show the world that we’re aware
but we're not going anywhere
i can’t remember which petition i signed
but i sleep pretty well each night
knowing that i’ve done my share in showing everyone i care
it’s hard to face reality, so i’ll just keep on dreaming

it’s plain to see, we don’t have the answers
but we think we know, and so it goes
it’s plain to see, we don’t have it together
but we think we know, so it goes on

but while we’re standing in the streets
they’re fighting off disease
i’m in the comfort of my bed
not dealing with a shred
of this war between nations and this war against nature
it’s a battlefield that i’ve never seen

it’s plain to see, we don’t have the answers
but we think we know, and so it goes
it’s plain to see, we don’t have it together
but we think we know, so it goes on

and so it goes on
o must it go on

Faint Not
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

the problem’s not a gun, not a color, not a hundred dollar bill
we think the struggle can be won with simple thoughts like 'come together be good willed'
the gap between the rich and poor is spreading out all the more or so they say
we ignore the claims

o my soul, faint not, no
faint not | o my soul, keep up, up
in love

it’s not that we don’t know or we’re not shown the proof of poverty
it’s not that we don’t have the tools to go to break this yoke of slavery
we quit because it’s not an easy fix and then forget that they are even there
we forget to care

o my soul, faint not, no
faint not | o my soul, keep up, up
in love

where there is hatred, let me sow love
where there is injury, let me pardon
where there is darkness, let the Light come, come

o my soul, faint not, no
faint not | o my soul, keep up, up
in love

o my soul, faint not, no
faint not | o my soul, keep up, up
in love

faint not
faint not

Psalm 46

Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
the LORD is my refuge and strength
therefore i will not be afraid
though the mountains give way
and fall into the sea
He will come and rescue me

the LORD comes to me at break of day
He reaches down to guide me in His ways
though the oceans roar
in this dark and stormy sea
He will come and rescue me

halleluYah, He is with me
halleluYah, we cannot be moved
halleluYah, He is with me
halleluYah, i rest secure

be still and know that He is God
He will be exalted over all
come and behold His strength and majesty
yet He will come and rescue me

halleluYah, He is with me
halleluYah, we cannot be moved
halleluYah, He is with me
halleluYah, i rest secure

Holding on to Hope
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

people i know around me float past with the debris
saying they don’t mind, such is life, as they float on down the street
i heard the worst is to come, i heard the words
'look above and find your home in Me
in this storm

i’m holding on to hope, hope, hope
and never letting go, no, no
even when the storm it grows, hope, hope
will never let me go, no, no
‘til i go on home

people build homes using pieces of broken virtue and philosophy
when people place hope in people i notice even more broken dreams
i know that time is so short, there’s something in store, a home i’ve never seen
in this storm, o in this storm

i’m holding on to hope, hope, hope
and never letting go, no, no
even when the storm it grows, hope, hope
will never let me go, no, no
‘til i go on home

only a trace, no face to face
so here i wait with this poor reflection
running a race, scared i’m going to break down
give me strength, Your protection
only a moment, a passing of time
until the day when faith is sight
only a moment, like a flashing of light
so keep me safe, keep me nigh
keep my way homeward bound
when the rain’s pouring down
keep me safe, keep me safe

i’m holding on to hope
never letting go, no, no
‘til the day i come on home, hope, hope
and finally fully know

Carry Me
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

broken-hearted i come
my cup is empty, my mouth is dry
see how quickly i fall
burdened with darkness
heavy in lies

i want to cry, but i can’t
i try to stand but i fall down again

i need You to carry me
i need You to carry me
i need You to carry me
when i am weak

o this can’t be enough
to just say i’m sorry, to confess my fault
when i’ve hurt You so much
and now i am asking for You to do more

i want to cry, but i can’t
i try to stand but i fall down again

i need You to carry me
i need You to carry me
i need You to carry me
when i am weak

i'm always weak...
when I first met you I drew you in close to me
your weaknesses covered with strength and security
I've never left you, nor will I ever leave
child believe, child believe

but you are strong...
when I first met you I drew you in close to me
your weaknesses covered with strength and security
I've never left you, nor will I ever leave
child believe, child believe

i need You to carry me
i need You to carry me
i need You to carry me
when i am weak

Through Your Eyes
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

blank pages for months
and the sound of his voice rings in my head
saying i should give up
and all that I write is meaningless

he says, no one else has to know about this
no one else has to know

white sheets feel so cold
i pull them tight but i can’t get warm
tonight he has won
i turn on the light so i won’t feel alone

he says, no one else has to know about this
no one else has to know

abandoned guitars
dust covered shelves, laundry piled high
tell me i’m not enough
and i know that they are wrong
but i still believe these lies

he says, no one else has to know about this
no one else has to know
no one else has to know

ooh i want to see myself through Your eyes
ooh i want to see myself through Your eyes Divine
ooh Father help me see myself through Your eyes
ooh i want to see myself through Your eyes
ooh i want to see myself through Your eyes

As Long as Our Hearts Are Beating
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2010 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

my bride, my bride, i can hardly hold myself together
this day, this night, i see you as your are and i never want to leave
no more words from my lips, just the look in your eyes
says it all, so much more than i could ever
i won’t try

after the sunset disappears
when there’s no one around and there’s nowhere but here
o my love, let’s keep this up as long as we’re breathing
forgetting the world outside of this room
while you’re holding me close, while i’m holding on to you
o my love, let’s keep this up as long as our hearts are beating

my bride, my bride, there’s something holding us together
with you, by my side, everything fits so much better, i remember
when you told me that you loved me for the very first time
with those tears in your eyes | so beautiful, now you’re mine

after the sunset disappears
when there’s no one around and there’s nowhere but here
o my love, let’s keep this up as long as we’re breathing
forgetting the world outside of this room
while you’re holding me close, while i’m holding on to you
o my love, let’s keep this up, let's keep this up

after the sunset disappears
when there’s no one around and there’s nowhere but here
o my love, let’s keep this up
forgetting the world outside of this room
while you’re holding me close, while i’m holding on to you
o my love, let’s keep this up as long as our hearts are beating

"Anchored in Love Divine" by James Rowe & James D. Vaughan
Words from Vaughan book, "Crowning Phrases."

i’ve found a sweet haven of sunshine at last
and Jesus abiding above
His dear arms around me are lovingly cast
and sweetly He tells His love

the tempest is o’er
i’m safe evermore
what gladness what rapture is mine
the danger is past
i’m anchored at last
i’m anchored in love Divine

He saw me endangered and lovingly came
to quiet my storm beaten soul
sweet words He has spoken and bless His dear name
the billows no longer roll

the tempest is o’er
i’m safe evermore
what gladness what rapture is mine
the danger is past
i’m anchored at last
i’m anchored in love Divine

His love shall control me through life and in death
completely i’ll trust to the end
i’ll praise Him forever and with my last breath
i’ll sing of my soul’s best friend

the tempest is o’er
i’m safe evermore
what gladness what rapture is mine
the danger is past
i’m anchored at last
i’m anchored in love Divine

German Carol, Es Ist Ein Ros Entsprungen, ca. 1500, public domain;
music: Michael Praetorius, 1609, public domain; arran: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

Lo, how a Rose e’er blooming from tender stem hath sprung!
Of Jesse’s lineage coming, as men of old have sung.
It came, a floweret bright, amid the cold of winter,
When half spent was the night.

This Flower, whose fragrance tender with sweetness fills the air,
Dispels with glorious splendor the darkness everywhere;
True Man, yet very God, from sin and death He saves us,
And lightens every load.

Lyrics: Johann Rist. 1607-1667, public domain;
trans: John Troutbeck; additional lyrics & music: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

break forth, o beauteous heavenly light,
and usher in the morning;
ye shepherds, shrink not with affright,
but hear the angel's warning.
this Child, now weak in infancy,
our confidence and joy shall be,
the power of satan breaking,
our peace eternal making.

break forth, o light shine down
restore, these barren grounds
behold our Savior now
break forth o beauteous light

break forth, o beauteous heavenly light,
to herald our salvation;
He stoops to earth---the God of might,
our hope and expectation.
He comes in human flesh to dwell,
Our God with us, Immanuel,
the night of darkness ending,
our fallen race befriending.

break forth, o light shine down
restore, these barren grounds
behold our Savior now
break forth o beauteous light

shine Your light down
shine Your light

break forth, o light shine down
restore, these barren grounds
behold our Savior now
break forth o beauteous light

angels we have heard on high
sweetly singing o’er the plains,
and the mountains in reply
echoing their joyous strains.

shepherds, why this jubilee?
why your joyous strains prolong?
what the gladsome tidings be
which inspire your heavenly song?

come to Bethlehem and see
Christ Whose birth the angels sing;
come, adore on bended knee,
Christ the Lord, the newborn King

gloria, in excelsis deo! (Glory to God in the Highest)
gloria, in excelsis deo!

Love came down at Christmas,
Love all lovely, love divine;
Love was born at Christmas,
star and angels gave the sign.

His love,
His perfect love,
His holy love,
redeeming us.

worship we the Godhead,
Love incarnate, Love divine;
worship we our Jesus:
but wherewith for sacred sign?

His love,
His perfect love,
His holy love,
redeeming us.

so come and drink: deeply, deeply.
all who are weak: weary, weary.
the water’s sweet, free, and waiting for you.

Love shall be our token,
Love be yours and Love be mine,
Love to God and all men,
Love for plea and gift and sign.

His love,
His perfect love,
His holy love,
redeeming us.

Love came down at Christmas.
Love all lovely, love divine.

We Sing Immanuel Thy Praise,
Lyrics: Paul Gerhardt, 1653, public domain;
additional lyrics & music: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

we sing, Immanuel, Thy praise,
Thou Prince of Life and Fount of grace,
Thou Flower of heaven and Star of morn,
Thou Lord of lords, Thou Virgin-born. hallelujah, hallelujah

for Thee, since first the world was made,
so many hearts have watched and prayed;
the patriarchs' and prophets' throng
for Thee have hoped and waited long. hallelujah, hallelujah

unto Him a babe
unto Him be praise
unto Him the King
unto Him be glory

now art Thou here, Thou Ever-blest!
in lowly manger dost Thou rest.
thou, making all things great, art small;
so poor art Thou, yet clothest all. hallelujah, hallelujah

chorus

had I no load of sin to bear,
Thy grace, O Lord, I could not share;
in vain hadst Thou been born for me
If from God's wrath I had been free. hallelujah, hallelujah

thus will i sing Thy praises here
with joyful spirit year by year;
and when we reckon years no more,
may i in heaven Thy name adore! hallelujah, hallelujah(2x)

This Isn't a Dream
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

springtime fools the trees into thinking their leaves will never fall
summer tells the lakes they’ll never freeze and get walked on
fall calls out the springtime’s lies as green leaves fade to brown
bitter and chilling the winter brings millions of snowflakes to the ground
on down from the clouds

passing seasons, oh so fleeting, we're no different we’re no different

this isn't a dream, like it seems,
i believe i was born last night and i'll die tomorrow morning
(never, never, never holding time)
got today, but that'll change, go away
i was born last night and i'll die tomorrow morning

signs of times that pass us by faster than we think we want
show so clearly in the wrinkles from smiles now long gone
we’re watching and waiting this world is just fading, its sights slip from our grasp
meanwhile we’re hoping and groaning for something exciting to come and last
never going to pass.

passing seasons, oh so fleeting, we're no different we’re no different

this isn't a dream, like it seems,
i believe i was born last night and i'll die tomorrow morning
(never, never, never holding time)
got today, but that'll change, go away
i was born last night and i'll die tomorrow morning

passing seasons, oh so fleeting

this isn't a dream, like it seems,
tomorrow i will surely die
got today, but that'll change,
tomorrow i will surely die

this isn't a dream, like it seems,
i believe i was born last night and i'll die tomorrow morning
(never, never, never holding time)
got today, but that'll change, go away
i was born last night and i'll die tomorrow morning

One-Eyed Cat
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

you gave up your one-eyed cat, still makes you sad, but i'm allergic
you gave up trips to the beach, you used to go every week to get some surfing
you cut back on a daily routine of chocolate ice cream and three french presses
you gave up playing solo gigs to sing with me, we sound much better

i didn't mind much giving it up, cause i got even more of you...

honey, know i meant it when i said i do
long as i'm alive i'll fancy you
and our love may not look much like hollywood's
but i'll love you with all my heart (by grace)

you gave me a diamond ring, on your knee in a puddle
you gave me your hand and trust, your very love and that was crazy
you gave me your confidence of faithfulness, when we're old and wrinkled
you gave me a kiss and a smile, a “yes, i will be yours”

so i'll never mind much giving you my love, i'll get even more of you...

honey, know i meant it when i said i do
long as i'm alive i'll fancy you
and our love may not look much like hollywood's
but i'll love you with all my heart (by grace)

you said i do so i gave you my heart, i'll stand by you until death says we part.

honey, know i meant it when i said i do
long as i'm alive i'll fancy you
and our love may not look much like hollywood's
but i'll love you with all my heart
by grace i'll love you with all my heart.

so i'll never mind much giving you my love, i'll get even more of you

Deepest Parts of Me
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI), Bethany Somers

i'm falling quickly, won't you come help me up
don't run away so fast, when you have what i want

these walls were built from pain, the labor was in vain

i just want to catch up, but you never slow down,
if i try to keep up, i might fail you now
come dwell inside my heart, live in the deepest parts
but you might not like what you see, in the deepest parts of me

the floor is spinning, come straighten out my walk
foundation's cracking, only you can make it stop

these walls were built from pain, the labor was in vain

i just want to catch up, but you never slow down,
if i try to keep up, i might fail you now
come dwell inside my heart, live in the deepest parts
but you might not like what you see, in the deepest parts of me

i just want you to walk, won't you listen to me,
be together and talk, but you can't just be
i want to know your heart, live in the deepest parts
but i might not like what i see
and i know you won't like what you see, in the deepest parts of me.

Simple
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

oh soul please keep yourself from seeking things that'll go out of style

driving down the highway all the signs say the same thing:
'may i have your attention? come and try what’s on me, soon you’ll see, you’ll be happy'
an attractive sentence

may i choose to look above me
may i choose to see what’s lovely
today to beauty may I run yes
today to lose myself in Love yes (agape)

what a simple thing, or so it seems, but it feels different
could i be set free, hear beauty speak, do i even feel like listening?
if i focus on the distance, keep my eyes fixed and resist what's down below,
it seems simple

flying ‘round the sky, so high they say softly, 'i’m more beautiful'
morning after morning the same story pouring out
much more beautiful

may i choose to look above me
may i choose to see what’s lovely
today to beauty may I run yes
today to lose myself in Love yes (agape)

what a simple thing, or so it seems, but it feels different
could i be set free, hear beauty speak, do i even feel like listening?
if i focus on the distance, keep my eyes fixed and resist what's down below,
it seems simple

oh soul please keep yourself from seeking things that'll go out of style

what a simple thing, or so it seems, but it feels different
could i be set free, hear beauty speak, do i even feel like listening?
if i focus on the distance, keep my eyes fixed and resist what's down below,
it seems simple

Do Not Follow Your Heart
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

i've trusted in what i thought would lead me right
discovered i was good at believing lies
i end up exchanging life for that which disappoints
and i can't seem to shake this tendency, will you please?

do not follow your heart
if it means you're going to settle when you know there's something better now
you'll be falling apart
don't you keep holding the lesser when you know it's going to let you down
you are leaving your mark
what you want them to remember when you're gone and can't pretend anymore
what you've loved and you've lived for.

Muse
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

sometimes love surprises me like raindrops
taps me on the shoulder, over and again
and i can't go on, got to wait until the rain stops
got to say what's on my heart and hope i can

o come to me my muse and set me free
break the chains that bind the words my soul longs to speak
o come to me my muse, so softly sweetly
my heart longs to speak

sometimes love wakes me up like sunlight
and i will not close the curtains, though the light it hurts my eyes
i will get on up, stare straight into the sun, and hope the words come soon
my heart is racing but my tongue won't move

o come to me my muse and set me free
break the chains that bind the words my soul longs to speak
o come to me my muse, so softly sweetly
my heart longs to speak

not just words with little meaning
not a love that will be fleeting
but with a heart that is repeating words with fruit, words of truth

o come to me my muse and set me free
break the chains that bind the words my soul longs to speak
o come to me my muse, so softly sweetly
my heart longs to speak

All Over Again
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

back in high school, i learned how to pretend
pretend to be cool, be everybody's friend
but i never really cared too much about the friends i called as such
i wish i was a different person then
i wish i could do it all over again

i would have laughed and cried
not so concerned with how i was looking
i would have danced, defying what was normal then
i wish i could do it all over again

finished college, as fast as i began
four years passed and i'm pretty glad with how they went
but as i think of all the things undone with my friends - I didn't care enough
i wish i was a different person then
i wish i could do it all over again

i would have laughed and cried
not so concerned with how i was looking
holding their hands in mine, i would have shared burdens with them
i wish i could do it all over again

i should love my woman, putting her first,
love with no condition, love without reserve
but i hardly ever love at all, my heart is hard and cold and small
i don't ever want to have to make amends
i don't want to have to wish this over again

i want to laugh and cry
not so concerned with how i am looking
holding her hand in mine, by her side to stand

i only want to be a better man, don't want to have to wish this over again

Love Through Me
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

there is plenty on this earth to suit our needs
but there will never ever be enough to satisfy our greed
weigh this heavy on me now until i can hardly breathe
love through me

i've never gone a day without a meal because i couldn't afford it
stood on a corner and begged for pennies, holding out a sign
call me blessed, but it sure does feel pathetic,
children ‘round the world are hungry now

so would i give up:
pillows and cable, clothing and candy,
if a boy could rest his tired bones?
would i lay down:
making all this money, just to have my milk and honey,
if my fellow man could get the chance to watch his children grow?

there is plenty on this earth to suit our needs
but there will never ever be enough to satisfy our greed
weigh this heavy on me now until i can hardly breathe
love through me

i feel in the right, self-justified giving coins away
but what about the time i consider mine not tomorrow but right now today?
clothe the naked; feed the hungry; welcome strangers
come on, get up and open your eyes

so would i give up:
pillows and cable, clothing and candy,
if a girl could have some more to eat?
would i lay down:
making all this money, just to have my milk and honey,
if my fellow man could get the chance to hear about the King?

there is plenty on this earth to suit our needs
but there will never ever be enough to satisfy our greed
weigh this heavy on me now until i can hardly breathe
love through me

help us see, our eyes are weak, help us please
love through me

Red Carpet
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

i’ve got the tendency to take deep breaths, to calm myself, to pass some test,
especially when i enter the sight...
of either athletes, actors, businessmen, or musicians that turn my head,
especially if they’ve been given spotlight

so i lay down a long red carpet
and I wash off the dirt from my hands
and I wait now, they’ll soon be arriving
i’d better be watching, i’d better be waiting,
i’d better be smiling, i want the top rating in their eyes

why do i spend so much energy on what i believe can bring me life and happiness?
why do i spend so much energy searching for lesser things...
to bring me close to happiness?

when nothing has satisfied...
nothing has satisfied...

so i lay down a long red carpet
and I wash off the dirt from my hands
and I wait now, they’ll soon be arriving
i’d better be watching, i’d better be waiting,
i’d better be smiling, i want the top rating in their eyes

can anything satisfy? when nothing has satisfied?

so i lay down a long red carpet
and I wash off the dirt from my hands
and I wait now, they’ll soon be arriving
i’d better be watching, i’d better be waiting,
i’d better be smiling, i want the top rating in their eyes

Desperate Faces
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2009 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

saw a number on the cover page
seas, like thunder, roared and quaked
many suffered, few were saved
beneath the rubble, beneath the waves

i don't understand, i don't understand...

a thousand die, and that news goes by,
and i don’t think twice, cause' it’s not my life
a thousand die and i do not cry,
though at times i’ve tried, it's a hopeless fight,
i’ve come to the conclusion...
i cannot change myself

children hunger as famines rage
rising numbers, everyday
so i wonder, can i change,
feel something, not be okay?

a thousand die, and that news goes by,
and i don’t think twice, cause' it’s not my life
a thousand die and i do not cry,
though at times i’ve tried, it's a hopeless fight,
i’ve come to the conclusion...

maybe i should take a flight to see those desolate places
maybe try to step inside the minds of all those desperate faces
maybe my superficial eyes will finally be opened
and i will see them as you do
i want to see them as you do
God i need you to break through
and help me be love just like you
could i be love just like you?
could i be love just like you?

a thousand die, and that news goes by,
and i don’t think twice, cause' it’s not my life
a thousand die and i do not cry,
though at times i’ve tried, it's a hopeless fight,
i’ve come to the conclusion...

American Dream
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

why can’t everything be as real as You are to me
why doesn’t everyone say just what they mean
why must we hide behind smiles we strain to find
why can’t everything be exactly as it’s meant to be

the american dream
so fleeting, no meaning
but i’ve got a reason
the american dream
so fleeting, no meaning
but i’ve got a reason to live

walking down the street, they’re filling the coffee shops
sipping their usual cup, society’s pick-me-up
faces all the same, i nod at what’s her name
it’s just another day, they’re all the same

the american dream
so fleeting, no meaning
but i’ve got a reason
the american dream
so fleeting, no meaning
but i’ve got a reason to live

i’ve got reason to live

the american dream
so fleeting, no meaning
but i’ve got a reason
the american dream
so fleeting, no meaning
but i’ve got a reason to live

Love's Going to Last
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

i was sitting in the back of a new york city taxi cab
when i tried to look at the sky
what i saw were windows, bricks, and bridges down the road a bit
when a simple thought entered my mind

bricks will break, bridges fall, buildings come down
not much going to survive till tomorrow

but love’s going to last forever
love’s going to last forever
love’s going to last forever
love's going to last forever and ever and...

magnificent by human standards, but the buildings can not touch the grandeur
of that which will survive
able to amaze us all, deep and wide and wonderful
this love of the Divine

bricks will break, bridges fall, buildings come down
not much going to survive till tomorrow

but love’s going to last forever
love’s going to last forever
love’s going to last forever
love's going to last forever and ever and...

some people talking like things are going to remain
see it in the ads, in the news
but i think of all that’s lost in yesterday
and my belief in love gets renewed

bricks will break, bridges fall, buildings come down
not much going to survive till tomorrow

but love’s going to last forever...

Nashville
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

once upon a time i met you
didn’t know it then but we would
journey to a land so far away
hadn’t even said i do’s yet
didn’t quite know just what love meant
i packed my bags and i got on a plane

i was so scared to make my mind up
but God said it was time for
me to make my way in the world
this little girl

i found love in tennessee
i learned that love is good for me
i learned to love in tennessee
nashville tennessee

every night a different venue
every fight i knew i loved you
more than i had the night before

i was so scared to make my mind up
but God said it was time for
me to make my way in the world
this little girl

i found love in tennessee
i learned that love is good for me
i learned to love in tennessee
nashville tennessee

he’s perfect for me (she's perfect for me)

i found love in tennessee
i learned that love is good for me
i learned to love in tennessee
nashville tennessee

Called Beauty
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

daily i could look at the gold and the fine, fine silver
with which You have adorned my arms and neck and fingers

so i was called beauty in the eyes
these gifts assured me You were mine
so I was called beauty in the eyes of my God and the angels

yet i sold all the jewels that You gave to me
and i used all the cash on other lovers i’d see
hoping that none would discover this feat
on the muck and the mire i’d continue to feast

daily i could take in the scent of the fragrance You’ve sprinkled on me
and all the clothes made of cashmere You give cause’ You call me lovely
daily i could look at how fair i was because of You
instead i’d forget what You’ve given and living for suitors i’d choose

still i remain treasured in the eyes of my God and the angels
still i remain treasured in the eyes of my God and the angels
still i remain treasured in the eyes of my God and the angels

yet i sold all the jewels that You gave to me
and i used all the cash on other lovers i’d see
hoping that none would discover this feat
on the muck and the mire i’d continue to feast

do not spare the rod how i long for faithfulness
tell me once again of Your grace and woo me in
let not these lovers be more attractive than You God
remind me of love
remind of You
Jesus all of You

still i remain treasured in the eyes

It's Been Going on so Long
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

they say, “wait, there’s more than what’s imagined”

it's been going on so long
we’ll buy away the emptiness
we’ll run away from loveliness
we fill our lives with objects made of the atoms of the earth
but i heard a solution is here, a solution is near
tell me...

it's been going on so long
we’ll try to beautify the ugliness
till beauty becomes relative
we pretend like there’s no blemishes when we gaze into the glass
but i heard a solution is here, a solution is near
tell me...

they say, “wait, there’s more than what’s imagined”
they say “wait, there’s more than what is fashioned by our own two hands”

it's been going on so long
we’ll fight away the symptoms
we try to upset the sickness
but frequently confusing these symptoms with disease
but i heard a solution is here, a solution is near
tell me...

they say, “wait, there’s more than what’s imagined”
they say “wait, there’s more than what is fashioned by our own two hands”

beauty and Truth we all need
though who seeks?

they say, “wait, there’s more than what’s imagined”
they say “wait, there’s more than what is fashioned by our own two hands”

Season
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

after eeg’s and mri’s, i can’t explain why You’d put me through this
and when hamlet’s lines are filled with rhymes
i have a hard time seeing what Your plan is

You say all things work together for my good
You say be patient but i wish You would

show me what this season in my life is for
i’ve been trying to seek You
seems You're shutting every door
show me what this season in my life is for
‘cause i want so much more, so much more

the doctor called to say today the medication isn’t going my way
your paper doesn’t speak to me, reads red ink in every margin I see

You say ask and seek and knock and you will find
why won't You calm the worries on my mind

show me what this season in my life is for
i’ve been trying to seek You
seems You're shutting every door
show me what this season in my life is for
‘cause i want so much more, so much more

work your renewal through my soul
bring me through the fire as gold
Living Water come and pour over me
wash me clean

show me what this season in my life is for
i’ve been trying to seek You
seems You're shutting every door
show me what this season in my life is for
‘cause i want so much more, so much more

Plans for Us
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

tears in eyes because she wonders where her gift has gone
fears in sight because it seems that they will not return
we’re far from home and we can’t seem to find a decent reason
why the One we call our love would put us in this season

we can make believe like we are satisfied
we want to taste and see the plans You have for our little lives

plans for us to prosper, far away from harm
You will come and answer, when we pray to You our God
plans to give us hope a future in Your arms
You’ll be found by us when we seek You with all our hearts

You gave this song, You give so much and we do not know why
trust in You is all we can do, trust that You’ll provide direction
these songs we sing seem vain because the waiting takes more time
patience give to us o Lord to wait until You guide

we can make believe like we are satisfied
we want to taste and see the plans You have for our little lives

plans for us to prosper, far away from harm
You will come and answer, when we pray to You our God
plans to give us hope a future in Your arms
You’ll be found by us when we seek You with all our hearts

we were angry with You; we were tired of you feeling so far away
shaking fists at your face, wondering where is the grace You promised
You said you’d pull us through
and i’m told it’s not your fault; You haven’t moved
but still i can’t find even a glimpse of you

we can make believe like we are satisfied
we want to taste and see the plans You have for our little lives

plans for us to prosper, far away from harm
You will come and answer, when we pray to You our God
plans to give us hope a future in Your arms
You’ll be found by us when we seek You with all our hearts

Wide-Eyed
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

i used to be wide-eyed
with my childhood faith
and You could do anything
life used to be simple
all i had to do was pray
and i knew You would listen

so open up my eyes again
and help me to believe
'cause sometimes i lose faith
in the blood You shed for me
so help me to believe

i used to be three feet tall
and i felt so small in Your arms
i used to be fearless
i knew that You would keep me safe from harm

so open up my eyes again
and help me to believe
'cause sometimes i lose faith
in the blood You shed for me
so help me to believe

people telling me i’m crazy
people telling me i’m wrong
they keep trying to confuse me
make me want to run
so i renew my mind and then i find
Your love covers it all

so open up my eyes again
and help me to believe
'cause sometimes i lose faith
in the blood You shed for me
so help me to believe

Product of Culture
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)

she’s a product of culture with her body all covered
with logos set in motion by the walk that she’s learned
on the shows of television, gaining attention is her mission
being the center of their vision and the subject of their thoughts

i wish her father would have told her
before she went and sold her body to the ones sitting behind a lit-up screen
i wish her father would have told her over and over that she is beautiful
that she is worth much more than an object of some fantasy
some sick dream

find me a reason she doesn’t cry
when her skins mostly covered up by cameras and lights
i want to find her a reason not to trust her eyes
when they lie and tell her to be dissatisfied

she’s a covered up princess yes she would never have an inkling
that a King would one day love her with a splendor as the stars
she’ll be completely captivated - enamored by His face and
kept completely safe in His strong loving arms

i wish her father would have told her
before she went and sold her body to the ones sitting behind a lit-up screen
i wish her father would have told her over and over that she is beautiful
that she is worth much more than an object of some fantasy
some sick dream

find me a reason she doesn’t cry
when her skins mostly covered up by cameras and lights
i want to find her a reason not to trust her eyes
when they lie and tell her to be dissatisfied

do not trust your eyes
for they lie
do not trust your eyes
just be satisfied

i wish her father would have told her over and over that she is beautiful
that she is worth much more

You think
Music and Lyrics: Copyright 2007 Tyler Somers (BMI), Jennifer Somers (BMI), One Eyed Cat Music (BMI)
You know me so well
each and every part
so much better than i know myself
every layer of my heart
but it’s different with the world
i won’t let anyone come in
can’t let them know about my sin

‘cause what will the think of me
when they finally see
this little girl they know
doesn’t let her bruises show
what will the think of me
when they finally see
this little girl they know
doesn’t let her bruises show
what will they think of me

the pastor speaks and i hang my head
so low i hope that | they will look at him instead
that man who left his wife and kids
so many years ago
no longer putting on a show
he’s let the congregation know

‘cause what will the think of me
when they finally see
this little girl they know
doesn’t let her bruises show
what will the think of me
when they finally see
this little girl they know
doesn’t let her bruises show
what will they think of me

and who am i to think that i’m more righteous than the rest
that i might stand a little straighter when You put me to the test
i’m lying when i tell myself i have to be the best
that’s not what they expect

‘cause what will the think of me
when they finally see
this little girl they know
doesn’t let her bruises show
what will the think of me
when they finally see
this little girl they know
doesn’t let her bruises show
what will they think of me

it’s not what they think
it’s how You think of me
