1. _ Anna
Michael w. smith/ wayne kirkpatrick
Jack is in the corner
The dish is with the spoon
The sheep is in the meadow
The cow is on the moon
But i am here with you and i believe
There's no other place i'd rather be
And a promise not to leave you
Is a promise i can keep
You're my muse
You're my rhyme
You're the fire warming this heart of mine
When you hear me say "i love you"
Anna, do you know how much i do?
So i watch you from a distance
Getting lost within your world
You pretend to be a princess
As you flutter and you twirl
Fragile as the flower in your hair
Dancing in your castle, unaware
That a single day without you
Would be more than i could bear
Little anna, little star
That is what you really are
Cross my heart and hope to die
You're the apple of my eye

2. _ I'm Gone
Michael w. smith/ ginny owens
"march of 1981 is a time i will never forget. i was completely gone (for you deb!)"
I see you smiling at me
And i fall into a daydream
Don't know what all of this means
Oh, is it love?
Logic is slipping away
My heart's on a runaway train
I'm gone, yes i'm gone, yes i'm gone and
It feels so right
Each time i look in your eyes
So glad you came into my life
Much more than an emotional high
Oh, this is love
I know that i've made up my mind
I'll stay for the rest of my life

4. _ Worth It All
Michael w. smith/ tim putnam/ deborah d. smith
"kanakuk, you continue to inspire me. love you guys!!"
Sometimes i wonder what it's like
To be living life on the other side
Please don't make me feel like i don't know
What's out there
Proof is written in the sky
Hey won't you listen to me now
It makes no difference if i wish upon a star
The only absolute is that the word of life
Is written on my heart
Oh i believe
Yes, i believe
Hey look at me, living life for you
When it's good, when it's hard
You know me, you know my heart
Yea, yea, yea i give up anything at all
When you call
All i know it's worth it all
I know you're scared to let me know you
I know you got a heavy kind of soul
And i know it's harder to believe in love when you're
Feeling all alone
They're taking bets on who the lover of your soul
And your heart is gonna be
They're taking on all the things that get you down and out
The moment you believe
I believe in you
Yes, i believe in you

5. _ Everybody Free
Michael w. smith/ chris rice
"i belong to you and you belong to me. your unconditional love overhwelms me."
The longing in my heart has stirred a faded memory
Of my young heart beating fast behind the willow tree
I was counting out loud, and i only peeked a time or two
And the only purpose in my life was finding you
Singing, "ollie, ollie, everybody free!"
Now was i chasing you or were you chasing me?
We all grow up and put away our childhood games
But deep inside i wonder if we really change
'cause i'm still seeking, though i've learned to hide so well
And i can still remember how it felt
Singing, "ollie, ollie, everybody free!"
Will i ever find someone pursuing me?
And then you caught me by surprise
I found my tears are in your eyes
I hear my heart inside of you
At last i've found somebody who
Can free my soul
And love me too
I can't believe we hide so long and run so well
When all the while we're aching to be caught and held
But it's only in surrender that our freedom comes
And so i run abandoned to your waiting arms
Singing "ollie, ollie, everybody free!"
I belong to you and you belong to me!
...singin' "ollie, ollie, everybody free

6. _ I Will Carry You
Michael w. smith/ eric laughlin
"we were never meant to walk this road alone. let's begin to stand in the gap for one another."
Sometimes i wonder if my beating heart has a reason
The thought of breathing only takes my breath away
I've spent so many nights wrestling with this feeling
Do i have the strength to make it through the day
But i was never meant
To walk this road alone
I can always trust you
When you say
I will carry you
Be your strength
And pull you through
Reach for me
And take my hand
We will pray
And we will stand
In a world
Crying out for peace
Let your heart be strong
For when i am weak
You will carry me
Sometimes you wonder if the road you're on has a reason
It's hard to go on when you just don't know
We can shoulder all the weight of life between us
Until the fear of what we cannot see is gone
'cause we were never meant
To walk this road alone
We are bound together
When we say...

7. _ Hey You It's Me
Michael w. smith/ nik kershaw
"deb, you really are the love of
My life."
Hey you
Things to do
Live the life for faith and family
It's tough
With all that stuff
Filling your head
We know
The undertow
Could get us so we don't remember, but
Lest we ever
Lest we ever forget
Hey you, it's me
True lovers are we
Children under the sun
Two spirits in the name of one
Hey me
Got to be
Places to go and people there to see
No space
For back to base
And no time at all
We talk
Walk the walk
Run the race
And climb the ladder, but
If we ever
If we ever should fall
Sometimes the smoke clears
And i see things how they are
I see how we have come so far

8. _ Reach Out To Me
michael w. smith/ dan haseltine
"the battle is more intense than it has ever been. lord, i need you and want
You so desperately. please hang on to me."
Another million miles from the truth now
I know there's peace but i can't figure out how
To stop this race that's taking over me, i'm
Under the gun i wait for you to see
Oh, please reach out to me
Open my eyes to see
I'm running from you now
Come rescue me somehow
Another scar from fighting the truth now
Has left me like a stranger to my need now
A masquerade, a game to figure out now
A cruel charade i cannot scream aloud
A narrow stretch of road in the way now
A heavy load still hanging on to me now
I'm in a maze that i can't seem to get out
Without a view from these shoulders of doubt

9. _ This Is Your Time
It was a test we could all hope to pass
But none of us would want to take.
Faced with the choice to deny God to live,
For her, there was one choice to make.
This was her time. this was her dance.
She lived every moment; left nothing to chance.
She swam in the sea; drank of the deep;
Embraced the mystery of all she could be.
This was her time...
Though you are mourning and grieving with us,
Death died a long time ago;
Swallowed in life so that life carries on.
Still it's so hard to let go.
This was her time. this was her dance.
She lived every moment; left nothing to chance.
She swam in the sea; drank of the deep;
Embraced the mystery of all she could be.
What if tomorrow, and what if today,
Faced with the question,
Oh what would you say?
This is your time. this is your dance.
Live every moment. leave nothing to chance.
Swim in the sea. drink of the deep.
Follow the mercy and hear yourself praying.
Won't you save me?
Won't you save me?
This is your time. this is your dance.
Live every moment. leave nothing to chance.
Swim in the sea. drink of the deep.
Embrace the mystery of all you can be.
This is your time. this is your dance.
Live every moment. leave nothing to chance.
Swim in the sea. drink of the deep.
Embrace the mystery of all you can be.
This is your time...
(won't you save me?)
(this is your time)
(won't you save me?)

10. _ I Still Have The Dream
Michael w. smith/ raymond a. boyd/ kevin jonas
"don't you ever forget that he has given us a future and a hope."
Said it's sad, said it was a shame
Bet you thought i caught a boat to bombay
On the line just to let you know
I will be around
Underneath the bridge to nowhere
Like i'm livin' out a game of solitaire
Goin' up to a better day
I will be around
Hey world, it's me
I still have the heart, still have the dream
Come on, people
We've got to come together
It's you and me
Hope will make us stronger
Freedom it rings
Do you hear it calling
Reach out and touch
And love will take us higher
Somebody threw a brick at my vision
Tried to sabotage my mission
Either way, i believe
I will be around
I wanna know, people are you with me
Open up your heart and just believe
Take a step, let me hear you say
I will be around
Hey world, it's me
I still have the heart, still have the dream
For he knows the plans he has for you
A plan to prosper and not to harm you
To give you a future, and a hope

11. _ She Walks With Me
Michael w. smith/ beth nielsen chapman
"whitney, i hope you know how much i love you. this song's for you. dad."
From the first breath of her life
She flew straight into my arms
I used to catch her from the swings
When she was five...
And now she dances on the wind
In a world as hard as stone
She's so anxious to begin
And ready to fly...
And she walks with me
And she talks with me
And i hold her hand in mine
I know she'll find her way
Like the light of day
Cause it's love that makes her strong
Though i cannot stop the rain
And i cannot turn the tide
And i am sure there will be things
That break her heart
I can only let her know
I am always on her side
And even as i let her go
I'll never be far
And she walks with me
And she talks with me
In her eyes i see her truth
Born of her fire and grace
As she finds her place
Cause it's love that makes her strong
And she walks with me
And she talks with me
In my eyes she'll see my prayer
As she turns each page
Through this tender age
It is love that makes her strong
It's her love that makes her strong

12. _ I Will Be Your Friend
Michael w. smith/ cindy morgan
"thank you to all of my closest friends and comrades for being consistent and not giving up on me."
So many memories and so many miles
The road that stretches behind us
We've had some laughter and our share
Of tears
But all these moments unite us
I'll be your friend for a lifetime
Against the wind and the rain of every season
Won't walk away in the hard times
I will be your friend
I'm saying i will be your friend
Sure as the river runs to the sea
High as the mountain that reaches
You were there by my side till the end
(and) helped me on my feet again
So in the valley walk on
Don't have to face it alone
Cause in the hard times
We keep growing strong
As we learn, as we live
That we live when we give
