The Process Face to Face was recorded in one freezing week in deep winter. (We especially remember the "freezing" part because we couldn't run the heat during the recording process!) To capture the reality and sound of live performance we moved out of the studio and into a living room where we recorded voice and grand piano simultaneously. In doing so, we exchanged processed "perfection" for raw passion and the joyous, unrehearsed moments that "just happen" when two innovative, interactive musicians perform live together. Nothing was re-recorded in the studio in post-production. It is what it is. The Passion "The Person, the message, and the way of Jesus are, quite simply, my life. These songs have emerged from a grateful, mercy-soaked heart and reflect a lifetime of ongoing discovery - of running after, and sometimes wandering away from, the loving, faithful God. In my journey I've discovered that hunger, born in Heaven, cannot be satisfied with things of the earth. I've also discovered that, while rules and regulations may bind, they can't hold me - and religious sentiment merely evaporates like morning mist. But the beautiful, burning, compassionate Christ of the Gospels is Someone worthy of a life's devotion. He has mine." - the singer/songwriter. The Songs Enough for Me You are enough for me Jesus You are enough for me. From Your side flows a river swift and deep Your blood poured out bought freedom for me You are enough for me Jesus You are enough for me. From Your wounds flows a river rich and sweet Your nail-pierced hands tore heaven open for me Your death caused life to rise in me Awakened in your fervency To passion, truth and purity You're my everything You are enough for me The One I never dared to dream a love like this existed I never dared to dream that love could be so strong I never dared to dream my heart could be entrusted to another But then you walked into my life I never dared to dream that I could safely show the secret spaces of my soul And still be taken as I am I never dared to dream that one was born to love me and complete me But here you are This is the love I've been looking for all of my life The love I searched for in the shadows of the night The love my heart has hoped for You are the one I've been waiting for all of my life The one I prayed for in the dark and lonely nights The one my heart was made for And now I dare to dream a journey made together And now I dare believe that I am beautiful And now I see myself through eyes of one who knows me and accepts me Your love brings freedom to me My God has given me a gift beyond all asking To be desired by you is just beyond my wildest dreams Surrendering my life, I promise to embrace your heart forever I will love you forever With every beat of my heart I belong to you As you look deep in my eyes I reach out for you With every breath that I breathe I will live for you With all the strength of my life I will cherish you You are the Love I've been looking for all of my life The love I searched for in the shadows of the night The love my heart has hoped for You are the one I've been waiting for all of my life The one I prayed for in the dark and lonely nights The one my heart was made for You are the one. The More I Know You The more I know you, The more I love you The more I understand the depths of redemption's plan The more I love you, The more I long to Be emptied of all I am and Abandoned to you And here in this humble place I find That the joys I strive to possess Are already mine And deep in this inner place I find That all I hunger to be I already am in your eyes The more I seek you, The more I need to Press into that holy place Where we can meet face to faceThe more I see you, the more I love you The deeper my heart cries, I want to know you You Are My Everything You are my life, You are my love You are my purity, you are my beauty You are my light, You are my fire You are my passion and all desire You are my everything You are my everything, you are the air I breathe, The bread I eat, the wine I drink You are my everything, You are my everything Jesus you are my everything You are my home, You are my hope You are my confidence, You are my freedom You are my joy, You are my peace You're my salvation and my victory Alabaster Jar I stood outside the door and looked into the room I saw the wise and learned men The righteous ones surrounding Him I quickly hid my face, tormented by my shame They knew what manner of woman I was How could I explain the reason that I came Clutching my alabaster jar The sum of my life's pleasures My heart desired to pour out passion beyond measure Aware of my deep sin and my scarred and broken body I came to offer him my alabaster jar I walked into that room Knelt at the Master's feet I heard men whispering if He only knew The filthy hands that are touching him I could not stop the tears, a fragrance fills the air Losing myself in the light of His face He saw my heart and He accepted me Breaking my alabaster jar The sum of my life's treasure My hands reached out to pour out passion beyond measure Forgiving my deep sin He brought me into freedom The day I offered him my alabaster jar Breaking my alabaster jar The sum of my life's treasure My hands reach out to pour out passion beyond measure Forgiven of my sin I walk about in freedom I'll forever offer Him my alabaster jar In Heaven's Eyes A fervent prayer rose up to heaven A fragile soul was losing ground Sorting through the earthly babble Heaven heard the sound This was a life of no distinction No successes, only tries But gazing down on this unlovely one There was love in heaven's Eyes In heaven's eyes there are no losers In heaven's eyes no hopeless cause Only people like you with feelings like me Amazed by the grace we can find in heaven's eyes The orphaned child, the wayward father The homeless traveler in the rain When life goes by and no one bothers Heaven feels the pain Looking down God sees each heartache Knows each sorrow, hears each cry And looking up we'll see compassion's fire Ablaze in heaven's eyes Come To The Father You will spend forever somewhere You will live eternally You will spend forever somewhere Where will it be? In the presence of the Father Basking in the glory of the Son Lost in the beauty of His Spirit Enfolded in His arms of love Or enchained in endless darkness Tortured memories of a lifetime Separated from the One who loves you Come to the Father, Come to the Father Hear his cry of love for you Run to the Father, Run to the Father Answer His cry of love His arms are open wide His son has paid the price For you to be free eternally You will spend your life on something Choosing chains or liberty You will spend your life on something What will it be? On the highest call of Freedom Following the Christ who chose the cross Pouring your life out for His glory Abandoned in the arms of God Or in chasing life's illusions As your pleasures burn to ashes Watching life go by, but going nowhere The Lord's Prayer Our Father who art in heaven Hallowed be Thy name, Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done On earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread, And forgive us our debts As we forgive our debtors And lead us not into temptation But deliver us from evil, For Thine is the kingdom, And the power, and the glory Forever.
