In a mountain cabin in the morning watching the sun rise upon the peaks I behold Your glory in creation the greatness of Your hand in all I see You surround me I feel You drawing near in colder weather There's beauty in the bareness of the trees Winter teaches us to trust You Father It strips us of our false securities There is more. Look beyond the troubles You are here You never leave in colder weather It's not forever You surround me The sun is rising on the peaks You never leave me I know You'll melt away what's freezing me You surround me The sun is rising on the peaks So no more striving I know You'll melt away what's freezing me (You never leave in colder weather and it's not forever)

I was a Tulsa punk rock kid found a place where I could fit Me and my brother wrote music and started playing shows with it I remember hanging with my friends we were too young to drive then skating or grabbing a bite to eat before the shows down on King St Those years on Boston Avenue And great out-of-town bands coming through We'd go up to Claremore and Bartlesville and OKC as well I was just a punk rock kid I was just a punk rock kid Guess I was just a punk rock kid

I'm Runnin' 04:11
Dreamt that I was in a winter marathon on an icy street with bare legs and bare feet making my way to the finish line at a steady pace Running through a snow-covered neighborhood in the winter air but I'm breathing good Only thing that threatens to stop me is my inner disgrace Could I throw off every weight All the sin and insecurities that drag me down from the Spirit never separate With nothing to hold me back, I'm runnin' Let my life be lived for the betterment of my family and the ones I meet Leaving behind the old ways of living' to serve like the Son I'm not looking for fame or for fortune just a simple life lived for the Kingdom Doing the works that He gave me to do till the victory has come Could I drown out every other voice in my head that tells me I'm not good enough Though the road is hard, I've made a choice With nothing to hold me back, I'm runnin' Could I throw off every weight all the sin and insecurities that drag me down Though the road is hard, I've made a choice With nothing to hold me back, I'm runnin'

Grit 03:38
Am I useless, not cut out for this I should just back down and succumb But I've got grit and I won't put up with it So hear me now, I've got purpose Your mouth is full of lies I won't be paralyzed Turn my gaze towards the skies Kick the dirt in the Devil's eyes Holy grit Tried to break me, tried to bring me down I only seek approval from my Lord Your mouth is full of lies I won't be paralyzed Turn my gaze towards the skies Kick the dirt in the Devil's eyes Holy grit Kick the dirt in the Devil's eyes Turn my gaze towards the skies

Winter comes to an end and spring time begins Spring brings the rain. In the heart there's a change Flowers bloom, and I've made room for healing and new things. Get moving You know and I know there's more to this life let's live it You know and I know we can't be afraid What you can't control, you gotta let go There's grace for it all, hear Grace when it calls "Come Alive!" No need to strive No need to strive. No, no, no You know and I know there's more to this life let's live it You know and I know we can't be afraid A garden has been sown Watch it grow
6.
You lead me down the open highway through pastures and scenic byways out of the city where the air is crisp and clear And though on this life's journey I may pass through dark valleys You are with me so I don't need to fear You are faithful to bring me through these valleys Tried and true, mountains move And I will not be afraid Don't always seem that the wheels are turning but I smell that rubber burning I'm gonna make it to the end of this dark road And when the sun starts rising I know that I have put my time in Through the night You guided me with hope You are faithful to bring me through these valleys Tried and true, mountains move And I will not be afraid

The River is flowing strong this Water of life keeps flowing on The oak trees grow up into the sun (Son) roots drinking from the River as it runs And they grow tall Oak trees of righteousness display Your love and kindness Oh, root us deep in Your flowing love Grow us into these oaks of righteousness Oh, plant me down by the waterside This winter has left me bare and dry Your river will give me what I need to bear my fruit as season turns to spring And I will thrive in You Oak trees of righteousness display Your love and kindness Oh, root us deep in Your flowing love Grow us into these oaks of righteousness [Oh, You plant us down by the stream. No, there ain't one single thing... nothing could take us out now. Stretching these roots out. We're growing strong and tall. I'm growing strong and you're growing strong and tall, like these big old oak trees. Nothing could take us out.]
