WE ARE AMERICAN

WE ARE AMERICAN | Joseph James
[CHORUS]
We are American! We are American!
A new generation, we fight for what is right!
We’re here for each other, in the stormy night.
We cheer and laugh together in the victories we share.
But make no mistake. we’ll stand up for what is fair.
Freedom, Justice, and Liberty!
Freedom, Justice, and Liberty for all!
Though wars on every side rage against us all.
Yearning to divide in order that we fall.
We’ll lock our arms together and pray that we will see,
The way we need to walk, in order to be free.
Sometimes we get distracted, we don’t always see,
Our brother when in trouble, hear his desperate plea.
Forces from without, demanding that we believe,
Their lies and deception, so they can bring him down.
If we’re searching for the truth, we will surely know,
Our enemy’s not our friend, rather darkness is our foe.
Destroying all our rights yet the Constitution speaks,
Chipping at it now, wanting to make us weak.
[END]
We are American! We are Free!

LOOK AGAIN | Joseph James
When you see the storm coming don’t give up!
When you see the funds get low don’t give up!
When you don’t know what to do just look up!
Don’t give up! Don’t give in! Look again!
[CHORUS]
On the mountain you’ll find treasure,
In the valley, without measure.
In your weakness I am stronger
And that fear will no longer
Rule o’er you.
On the other side, is where you’ll find yourself. So, Look Again!
When that mountain seems too high don’t give up!
When that valley is too dark don’t give up!
When your legs too tired to walk don’t give up!
Rest a while! Lean on Me! I’m right here!
Can you see beyond your fear I’m right here?
Will you trust Me with your heart, I can heal?
When you think you’re all alone, I’ve got you now.
Grab My hand! Hug Me tight! hear My heart!

SOME OF THAT | w/m Joseph James | © 08.01.18
[CHORUS]
What’s that you said when were going down the road
And you’re looking like that?
Up ahead and over there I see it in your eyes
And I want some of that.
[VERSE 1]
I see it in the distance and I know what you are thinking’
Last time we were there baby you let down your hair’
Those were good old times that we lost along the way’
Pedal to the metal let’s go back to play’
[VERSE 2]
We’re sitting on the sand and we’re looking at the waves’
Your hair is blowing softly in the gentle summer breeze’
You’re looking in my eyes with that grin upon your face’
It’s clear to me, you’re taking me away.
[VERSE 3]
We’re in the restaurant and you’re spying through your glass’
Oh baby I’m done ‘cause my heart is melting fast’
You know you’ve got me now and it’s clear to see’
Love pierced through you’ve got me back again’

MY LADY | Joseph James
Lady, I love you, no matter what you do.
Your heart is always for me. I know this to be true.
You’re my one and special angel,
A light in this darkened world, And every morning you kiss me,
You light up my world.
[CHORUS]
I love you and all of you.
Each and every part
You’re my lady! You’re my lady,
So gentle, so strong, so true!
Lady, I see you when you’re trying to hide.
That sparkle in your eyes makes me feel secure.
I love the way you look at me,
When you don’t know I see, And every time I catch you,
Touches me inside.
Lady, I hope that I’ll somehow measure up,
And be that part of you, that makes us both complete.
I love the way you love me so,
The way you make me laugh, And every time I see your smile,
My heart is surely glad.

STILL | w/m Joseph James | © 4.28.18
[VERSE 1]
I shook my fist up at you Lord I didn’t understand
I called you names now I’m ashamed
I didn’t see your plan.
[CHORUS]
Still your arms are open wide
Still you hug me tight
Still you love me so, I’m amazed.
[VERSE 2]
I’ve let you down so many times falling on my face.
I’ve missed the mark I’ve blown it all,
Face to face now by your grace.
[VERSE 3]
Now I see your plan for me as I’m standing by your side.
It’s greater than I imagined.
Love pierced the fear that made me hide.
[END]
I’m amazed.

OPEN ARMS | Joseph James
Waiting there with open arms.
Wanting just to touch your heart.
Wanting to keep you from all harm.
His love is seen everywhere.
[Chorus]
Painting a sunset just for you to see!
Touching you with a breeze through your hair!
Sending a bird to sing a special song just for you,
A friend or a stranger with a hug!
Wanting you to know He’s right there!
Waiting there to lead you on,
To the place He has for you,
To talk with you and show you the plans,
He’s prepared just for you.
Waiting there and hoping you,
Will notice Him and want to share,
To walk with Him all through your fears,
And make it all beautiful.

BROKEN PIECES

BROKEN PIECES | Joseph James
Broken pieces on the floor.
Jagged segments out the door.
Scattered through the neighborhood.
No one knows just where they stood.
[CHORUS]
One Body! One face!
Such beauty! Amazing grace!
Love proclaims! Love endures!
It’s stands the test, and that’s for sure!
An image now was clear to be.
One so great for all to see,
But gaps so huge the image skewed.
Stones were thrown, and pain ensued.
Grace prevailed, and mercy stilled.
Hearts were touched, and spaces filled.
Bit by bit the canvass showed
Jesus’ face and how it glowed.
[BRIDGE]
Jesus, name above all names!
In His image we are all the same!
Mighty Shepherd! Glorious King!
Together we stand! United we sing! United we sing!
