1. Calling For A Flood
John 3:30
John Waller
"I was on vacation last summer and we made a stop in Georgia to see our family. I was feeling a bit discouraged about whether or not God
would do anything with my music. I was praying and asking God to engulf me with His presence from the chambers of my heart to the
portals of my mind and every square inch of the room I was in. I needed to forget about myself and what I wanted and be flooded with
Him."
Flood every corner of this room
Flood all my emptiness with You
Lord, I long to be consumed
And I’m calling for a flood
So flood every chamber of my heart
Flood what I lack with all You are
I am dry and I am parched
And calling for a flood
I am calling for a flood
Holy Spirit flow
Completely immerse me in You
I’m longing for a flood
Of holiness to wash me now
Hear me, Lord; I’m calling for a flood
Now flood every portal of my mind
And flood everything I’ve tried to hide
I am looking to the sky
And I’m calling for a flood
Submerge me, Lord, in holy water
Drown me to live in You
Flood every corner of this room
And fill all the emptiness with You
Lord, we long to be consumed
And we’re calling for a flood
We are calling for a flood
Holy Spirit flow
Completely immerse us in You
We’re longing for a flood
Of holiness to wash us now
Hear us, Lord; we’re calling for a flood
Holiness, holiness
So flood this place with holiness
You are holy, Lord immerse us in Your
Holiness, holiness
So flood this place with holiness
You are holy
Hear us, Lord, we’re calling for a flood
We’re calling for a flood
Hear us, Lord, we’re calling for a flood

2. Identity
1 John 4:17
John Waller
"As He is, so we are in this world. Well-known pastor and author, Andrew Wommack said it best: “What we’ve got to do is find out who
we are in Christ and start coming from the victory that is already ours. Instead of trying to obtain victory, instead of fighting toward
getting healed, take a stand that ‘by His stripes, I am healed.’ The same power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead is on the inside of
me and there aren’t enough demons in hell to take from me what God has already given me. Confess the word of God, not to get God to
move, but because God has already moved. So say it, believe it and act on it. You’ve already got it!”
You are love, So I am love
You are joy, And so I am joy
You are peace, So I am peace
Lord, everything You are
Now becomes me
The line between
Where You begin
And where I end
Is gone, now I’m in You
I know who I am
You’re my true born identity
I’m not the one I used to be
‘Cause now there is no separating
You…from who I am
You are strong, So I am strong
You are power, And so I am powerful
You are mercy, So I am mercy
Lord, everything You are
Now becomes me
‘Cause we’re in You
‘Cause less is not us
Anything less is not us
Anything else is not who we are
‘Cause we’re in You
We know who we are
You’re our true born identity
And we’re not the ones we used to be
‘Cause now there is no separating You
We’re not the ones we used to be
‘Cause now there is no separating You
Anything less is not us
Anything less is not us
Anything else is not who we are

3. The Blessing
(guest appearance by Mark Hall of Casting Crowns)
Deuteronomy 30:19
John Waller and Troy Denning
"I lived 20 years of my life struggling with depression and handling it with medication. God delivered and healed me 3 ½ years ago.
Depression has run through my family for generations. As a young boy, my family told me that I had this illness too, I believed it and
therefore it became real in my life. “As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is.” Jesus bore this curse along with every other at the cross.
When I began to believe His reality, my reality changed. It’s so important that we speak truth and blessing over our spouses, children and
everyone else. The power to bless and to curse is in the tongue. I figured it was time for this truth to be said in a song."
Let it be said of us while we walked among the living
Let it be said of us by the ones we leave behind
Let it be said of us that we lived to be a blessing for life
Let it be said of us that we gave to reach the dying
Let it be said of us by the fruit we leave behind
Let it be said of us that our legacy is blessing for life
This day, You set life, You set death right before us
This day, every blessing and curse is a choice now
And we will choose to be a blessing for life
Let it be said of us that our hearts belonged to Jesus
Let it be said of us that we spoke the words of life
Let it be said of us that our heritage is blessing for life
We will choose to be a blessing for life
‘Cause blessings and curses are choices
‘Cause blessings and curses are choices
Will we build up, tear down, the moment of truth is now
For your Kingdom
For our children
For the sake of every nation
We will choose to be a blessing for life, for life
Blessing for life

4. Still Calls Me Son
Luke 15:11-32
John Waller and Scott Johnson
"I always say, ‘You either were a prodigal, are a prodigal, or about to become one.’ Producer Mark Miller called me and challenged me to
write a song on the story of the prodigal son. I don’t usually write songs “on demand,” but I woke up the next morning with a chorus in
my head. “After all I’ve done, could he run to me; and would he kiss my face; could he even look at me. After where I’ve been, should he
take me back, I would understand, I’ve disgraced him.” I called my co-writer of 14 years, Scott Johnson, and we finished the song fairly
quickly. After all, we were once prodigals."
I drug His name through godless places
And I’ve known shame that no child of His should know
I’ve seen pain on broken faces
Beyond all thought of hope
I was just too far from home
Still I always wondered when I closed my eyes
After all I’ve done
Could He run to me?
Would He kiss my face?
Could He even look at me?
After where I’ve been
Should He take me back?
For I would understand
I’ve disgraced Him
But it would be amazing
If He still calls me son
With nothing left for me to bring Him
I left my pride and turned my heart toward home
I saw my home on the horizon
And from a distance
I saw my Father
Watching for His own with forgiving eyes
After all I’d done
He just ran to me
Then he kissed my face
He would not let go of me
After where I’d been
He just welcomed me
I don’t understand
How he put his robe on me
It was so amazing
That he still calls me son
One day as I breathe my last
And I know my days on Earth have ended
When every hour is spent
I will close my eyes in amazement
And I’ll hear angels
They’ll be singing
Amazing grace
For He will run to me
And He will kiss my face
He will not let go of me
After where I’ve been
He will welcome me
And I won’t understand
How He’ll put His robe on me
It will be amazing
That He still call me son
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
When He calls me son
I once was lost but now I’m found
‘Cause He calls me, He calls me son
It’s just so amazing

5. Ancient Words
Genesis 48:20, Numbers 6:22-27, Galatians 3:13-14
John Waller
"This song is inspired by the book, “The Forgotten Blessing: Ancient Words That Heal Generational Wounds.” The author painted a
beautiful picture of how we are to bless our children. I’ve learned to bless as the Jewish patriarchs did, with my right hand on my
children’s head, speaking the ancient blessings. As I bless others, God fulfills His promise to Abraham, “in blessing, I will bless you.”
I am at Your feet
I’m on bended knee
You’re my Father
I’ve become Your child
I receive Your worth
By my right of birth
For Jesus, my brother, has broken
The curses of all generations
By His blood, I can enter in
To the blessing of Abraham
So place Your right hand upon my head
And speak the ancient words
Speak the ancient words
Make our future, Lord
Ever fruitful, Lord
And our sorrows
May we soon forget
Make Your countenance
Now shine down on us
For Jesus, our brother, was wounded
For every curse that’s been spoken
By His blood, we can enter in
To the blessing of Abraham
So place Your right hand upon our heads
And speak the ancient words over us, Lord
Speak the ancient words
So cover us with ancient words
Words that bless and break the curses of our fathers
So cover us with ancient words
Heal the wounds that have
Lasted generations
Speak ancient words, over us
Ancient words, over us
Ancient words, over us

6. Breathe On Me
Genesis 1:2, John 20:22, Acts 4:30, 14:3
John Waller and Matt Adkins
"I was driving through the mountains with a close friend of mine near Winter Park, CO. He was in town from Atlanta and we were headed
to do a ski retreat for a group of college students. I said, “Hey, let’s pray that God will give us a song this week.” We began discussing
what God was teaching us. I had been learning a lot about the Holy Spirit and His role in our lives. I was reminded of the scripture in
Genesis that says the Spirit of God “hovered over the darkness of the waters,” and in John, chapter 20 when Jesus was in the upper room
and He breathed on the disciples and said, “Receive the holy spirit.” I said, “Let’s write a worship song inviting the Holy Spirit to breathe
on us.” God answered our prayer that week!"
Hover over me
Fill me, Spirit
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me fresh and
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me, Spirit
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me fresh and
Breathe on me
I want to walk in signs and wonders
I want to speak with tongues of angels
Breathe on me
Spirit, I receive
Empower me to be Your witness
Rest on me
Jesus, let me see
Even greater things than these
When You breathe
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me spirit
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me fresh and
Breathe on me
Would you breathe on me
Let me bind up the broken-hearted
I want the world to see Your power
I believe, I receive
Everything You have for me
I believe, I receive
Breathe on me
Would You breathe on me
Lord, breathe on me
Breathe on me
Breathe on me
Would You breathe on me, Lord
I believe, I receive
Everything You have for me
I believe, I receive
So breathe on me

7. Love To Say Your Name
John Waller
"God has many names to describe His character, attributes, and nature. Some of those names I have known for years and have always
enjoyed using them in my prayer time or as I lead worship. Most of them are difficult to pronounce, much less to remember. I figured if I
put the many names of God into a song that we could all remember them. There’s an expectation of provision when we call to Him using
Jehovah-Jireh. There’s an expectation of peace when we call Him Jehovah-Shalom. God loves to be called by His names!"
Love to say Your name
Love to feel it falling from my lips
Resonates with me
I love to say Your names
It’s the way they tell me who You are
And I believe
I love to see darkness flee
When I sing Elohim, my Creator
Adonai, Lord, my Master
My Provider, Jehovah-Jireh
God of blessings, El-Shaddai
I love to say Your name
Love to say Your name
Like a city on a hill, I will
Put them on display
Love to say Your name
There’s a power and authority
Over my enemies
I love to see faces change when
I praise Elohim, my Creator
Adonai, Lord and Master
My Provider, Jehovah-Jireh
God of blessings, El-Shaddai
I love to say Your name
El-Elyon, the Most High God
Jehovah-Shalom, the Peace of my heart
Jehovah-Rapha, God, my Healer
Jehovah-Shammah, never leaves us nor forsakes us
I praise Elohim, my Creator
Adonai, Lord and Master
My Provider, Jehovah-Jireh
God of blessings, El-Shaddai
I love to say Your name
I love to say Your name
I love to say Your name
I love to say Your name

8. While I’m Waiting
Psalm 5:3, 27:14, 33:20, 37:7, 38:15, 40:1, Isaiah 30:18, Lamentations 3:24
John Waller
"The explanation for this song is simple, I was waiting on God and I was hurting when I wrote the lyrics. I probably wouldn’t have written
a song if my friend, Mike, hadn’t encouraged me to document what I was going through during that time. I’m sure there are few people
who can’t relate to this song, but the important thing to remember while we’re waiting on God is to not just wait but to actively wait.
Serve, worship and be faithful with what you have, where you are… “even while (you) wait.”
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait
I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I’m waiting
I will serve You
While I’m waiting
I will worship
While I’m waiting
I will not faint
I’ll be running the race
Even while I wait
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it’s not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting on You, Lord

9. Something Big
John Waller
“Attempt something so big for God that it is sure to fail without Him.” I’m not sure who first spoke these words, but they’ve never left
me. I believe the desire to be a part of something greater than ourselves is built into the core of each one of us. That’s the reason I left
Georgia to become the worship pastor of a church plant in south Denver called “Southlink.” I believe that this song will strike a chord
with many visionary dreamers who are contemplating stepping out and doing something that only God can truly do through them. In his
book, “Visioneering,” Andy Stanley said, “A divine vision done God’s way and in God’s timing is sure to succeed.”
I wanna see something I've not seen
Something so big
I wanna be a part of something great
Greater than me
It's time to dream big dreams
To see Your vision
Become reality
‘Cause it’s for You, by You, those who
Love You wanna do
Something so big
It’s destined to fail without You, Lord
It’s gonna fail without You, Lord
Something so great
It takes a miracle to do
We, Your children
Wanna do something big for You
We, yes, we are gonna sing a brand new song
Something so strong
We will be the sound that wakes the dawn
Something so loud
It’s time for breaking through
‘Cause there are no limits
For he who holds the truth
When it’s for You, and by You, and those who
Love You wanna do
Something bigger, something greater
For the glory of Your splendor
Something bigger, something greater
Tell the story of Your wondrous love
Your wondrous love
Those who love You wanna do
As long as we live, let us do something so big for You

10. Sacred Pages
(guest appearance by Mark Miller of Sawyer Brown)
Luke 6:48
John Waller and Scott Johnson
"The famous poet, Elizabeth Barrett Browning wrote, “Earth’s crammed with heaven; And every common bush afire with God; But only he
who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit around it and pluck blackberries.” My prayer is that God would open our eyes to see and ears to
hear so that we will realize that Heaven is co-existing with us right here and now. This song was written while we were in the studio
tracking the album. The producer, Mark Miller, liked it so much he said, “Let’s cut it.” Mark also sings backup on this song and he sounds
pretty good singing background for a country singer who can’t hear a lick of harmony!"
This earth is crammed with Heaven
And every common bush
Is blazing with the fire of God
But only he who sees
Removes unworthy shoes
To realize holy ground
And I’m standing on the Rock of Ages
I’m basking in miracles
I stand on sacred pages
And this changes everything
Everything I am
This changes everything I am
I tremble when I wonder
How many times You call my name
But only he who hears will turn to You
And I’m driven by a vision
Of countless men who long for God
But only he who dies will live in You
Singing Rock of Ages cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
It changes everything I am
On this Rock where I stand
On this Rock I stand

John 3:30
John Waller
"I was on vacation last summer and we made a stop in Georgia to see our family. I was feeling a bit discouraged about whether or not God
would do anything with my music. I was praying and asking God to engulf me with His presence from the chambers of my heart to the
portals of my mind and every square inch of the room I was in. I needed to forget about myself and what I wanted and be flooded with
Him."
Flood every corner of this room
Flood all my emptiness with You
Lord, I long to be consumed
And I’m calling for a flood
So flood every chamber of my heart
Flood what I lack with all You are
I am dry and I am parched
And calling for a flood
I am calling for a flood
Holy Spirit flow
Completely immerse me in You
I’m longing for a flood
Of holiness to wash me now
Hear me, Lord; I’m calling for a flood
Now flood every portal of my mind
And flood everything I’ve tried to hide
I am looking to the sky
And I’m calling for a flood
Submerge me, Lord, in holy water
Drown me to live in You
Flood every corner of this room
And fill all the emptiness with You
Lord, we long to be consumed
And we’re calling for a flood
We are calling for a flood
Holy Spirit flow
Completely immerse us in You
We’re longing for a flood
Of holiness to wash us now
Hear us, Lord; we’re calling for a flood
Holiness, holiness
So flood this place with holiness
You are holy, Lord immerse us in Your
Holiness, holiness
So flood this place with holiness
You are holy
Hear us, Lord, we’re calling for a flood
We’re calling for a flood
Hear us, Lord, we’re calling for a flood

2. Identity
1 John 4:17
John Waller
"As He is, so we are in this world. Well-known pastor and author, Andrew Wommack said it best: “What we’ve got to do is find out who
we are in Christ and start coming from the victory that is already ours. Instead of trying to obtain victory, instead of fighting toward
getting healed, take a stand that ‘by His stripes, I am healed.’ The same power that raised Jesus Christ from the dead is on the inside of
me and there aren’t enough demons in hell to take from me what God has already given me. Confess the word of God, not to get God to
move, but because God has already moved. So say it, believe it and act on it. You’ve already got it!”
You are love, So I am love
You are joy, And so I am joy
You are peace, So I am peace
Lord, everything You are
Now becomes me
The line between
Where You begin
And where I end
Is gone, now I’m in You
I know who I am
You’re my true born identity
I’m not the one I used to be
‘Cause now there is no separating
You…from who I am
You are strong, So I am strong
You are power, And so I am powerful
You are mercy, So I am mercy
Lord, everything You are
Now becomes me
‘Cause we’re in You
‘Cause less is not us
Anything less is not us
Anything else is not who we are
‘Cause we’re in You
We know who we are
You’re our true born identity
And we’re not the ones we used to be
‘Cause now there is no separating You
We’re not the ones we used to be
‘Cause now there is no separating You
Anything less is not us
Anything less is not us
Anything else is not who we are

3. The Blessing
(guest appearance by Mark Hall of Casting Crowns)
Deuteronomy 30:19
John Waller and Troy Denning
"I lived 20 years of my life struggling with depression and handling it with medication. God delivered and healed me 3 ½ years ago.
Depression has run through my family for generations. As a young boy, my family told me that I had this illness too, I believed it and
therefore it became real in my life. “As a man thinketh in his heart, so he is.” Jesus bore this curse along with every other at the cross.
When I began to believe His reality, my reality changed. It’s so important that we speak truth and blessing over our spouses, children and
everyone else. The power to bless and to curse is in the tongue. I figured it was time for this truth to be said in a song."
Let it be said of us while we walked among the living
Let it be said of us by the ones we leave behind
Let it be said of us that we lived to be a blessing for life
Let it be said of us that we gave to reach the dying
Let it be said of us by the fruit we leave behind
Let it be said of us that our legacy is blessing for life
This day, You set life, You set death right before us
This day, every blessing and curse is a choice now
And we will choose to be a blessing for life
Let it be said of us that our hearts belonged to Jesus
Let it be said of us that we spoke the words of life
Let it be said of us that our heritage is blessing for life
We will choose to be a blessing for life
‘Cause blessings and curses are choices
‘Cause blessings and curses are choices
Will we build up, tear down, the moment of truth is now
For your Kingdom
For our children
For the sake of every nation
We will choose to be a blessing for life, for life
Blessing for life

4. Still Calls Me Son
Luke 15:11-32
John Waller and Scott Johnson
"I always say, ‘You either were a prodigal, are a prodigal, or about to become one.’ Producer Mark Miller called me and challenged me to
write a song on the story of the prodigal son. I don’t usually write songs “on demand,” but I woke up the next morning with a chorus in
my head. “After all I’ve done, could he run to me; and would he kiss my face; could he even look at me. After where I’ve been, should he
take me back, I would understand, I’ve disgraced him.” I called my co-writer of 14 years, Scott Johnson, and we finished the song fairly
quickly. After all, we were once prodigals."
I drug His name through godless places
And I’ve known shame that no child of His should know
I’ve seen pain on broken faces
Beyond all thought of hope
I was just too far from home
Still I always wondered when I closed my eyes
After all I’ve done
Could He run to me?
Would He kiss my face?
Could He even look at me?
After where I’ve been
Should He take me back?
For I would understand
I’ve disgraced Him
But it would be amazing
If He still calls me son
With nothing left for me to bring Him
I left my pride and turned my heart toward home
I saw my home on the horizon
And from a distance
I saw my Father
Watching for His own with forgiving eyes
After all I’d done
He just ran to me
Then he kissed my face
He would not let go of me
After where I’d been
He just welcomed me
I don’t understand
How he put his robe on me
It was so amazing
That he still calls me son
One day as I breathe my last
And I know my days on Earth have ended
When every hour is spent
I will close my eyes in amazement
And I’ll hear angels
They’ll be singing
Amazing grace
For He will run to me
And He will kiss my face
He will not let go of me
After where I’ve been
He will welcome me
And I won’t understand
How He’ll put His robe on me
It will be amazing
That He still call me son
Amazing grace, how sweet the sound
When He calls me son
I once was lost but now I’m found
‘Cause He calls me, He calls me son
It’s just so amazing

5. Ancient Words
Genesis 48:20, Numbers 6:22-27, Galatians 3:13-14
John Waller
"This song is inspired by the book, “The Forgotten Blessing: Ancient Words That Heal Generational Wounds.” The author painted a
beautiful picture of how we are to bless our children. I’ve learned to bless as the Jewish patriarchs did, with my right hand on my
children’s head, speaking the ancient blessings. As I bless others, God fulfills His promise to Abraham, “in blessing, I will bless you.”
I am at Your feet
I’m on bended knee
You’re my Father
I’ve become Your child
I receive Your worth
By my right of birth
For Jesus, my brother, has broken
The curses of all generations
By His blood, I can enter in
To the blessing of Abraham
So place Your right hand upon my head
And speak the ancient words
Speak the ancient words
Make our future, Lord
Ever fruitful, Lord
And our sorrows
May we soon forget
Make Your countenance
Now shine down on us
For Jesus, our brother, was wounded
For every curse that’s been spoken
By His blood, we can enter in
To the blessing of Abraham
So place Your right hand upon our heads
And speak the ancient words over us, Lord
Speak the ancient words
So cover us with ancient words
Words that bless and break the curses of our fathers
So cover us with ancient words
Heal the wounds that have
Lasted generations
Speak ancient words, over us
Ancient words, over us
Ancient words, over us

6. Breathe On Me
Genesis 1:2, John 20:22, Acts 4:30, 14:3
John Waller and Matt Adkins
"I was driving through the mountains with a close friend of mine near Winter Park, CO. He was in town from Atlanta and we were headed
to do a ski retreat for a group of college students. I said, “Hey, let’s pray that God will give us a song this week.” We began discussing
what God was teaching us. I had been learning a lot about the Holy Spirit and His role in our lives. I was reminded of the scripture in
Genesis that says the Spirit of God “hovered over the darkness of the waters,” and in John, chapter 20 when Jesus was in the upper room
and He breathed on the disciples and said, “Receive the holy spirit.” I said, “Let’s write a worship song inviting the Holy Spirit to breathe
on us.” God answered our prayer that week!"
Hover over me
Fill me, Spirit
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me fresh and
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me, Spirit
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me fresh and
Breathe on me
I want to walk in signs and wonders
I want to speak with tongues of angels
Breathe on me
Spirit, I receive
Empower me to be Your witness
Rest on me
Jesus, let me see
Even greater things than these
When You breathe
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me spirit
Breathe on me
Hover over me
Fill me fresh and
Breathe on me
Would you breathe on me
Let me bind up the broken-hearted
I want the world to see Your power
I believe, I receive
Everything You have for me
I believe, I receive
Breathe on me
Would You breathe on me
Lord, breathe on me
Breathe on me
Breathe on me
Would You breathe on me, Lord
I believe, I receive
Everything You have for me
I believe, I receive
So breathe on me

7. Love To Say Your Name
John Waller
"God has many names to describe His character, attributes, and nature. Some of those names I have known for years and have always
enjoyed using them in my prayer time or as I lead worship. Most of them are difficult to pronounce, much less to remember. I figured if I
put the many names of God into a song that we could all remember them. There’s an expectation of provision when we call to Him using
Jehovah-Jireh. There’s an expectation of peace when we call Him Jehovah-Shalom. God loves to be called by His names!"
Love to say Your name
Love to feel it falling from my lips
Resonates with me
I love to say Your names
It’s the way they tell me who You are
And I believe
I love to see darkness flee
When I sing Elohim, my Creator
Adonai, Lord, my Master
My Provider, Jehovah-Jireh
God of blessings, El-Shaddai
I love to say Your name
Love to say Your name
Like a city on a hill, I will
Put them on display
Love to say Your name
There’s a power and authority
Over my enemies
I love to see faces change when
I praise Elohim, my Creator
Adonai, Lord and Master
My Provider, Jehovah-Jireh
God of blessings, El-Shaddai
I love to say Your name
El-Elyon, the Most High God
Jehovah-Shalom, the Peace of my heart
Jehovah-Rapha, God, my Healer
Jehovah-Shammah, never leaves us nor forsakes us
I praise Elohim, my Creator
Adonai, Lord and Master
My Provider, Jehovah-Jireh
God of blessings, El-Shaddai
I love to say Your name
I love to say Your name
I love to say Your name
I love to say Your name

8. While I’m Waiting
Psalm 5:3, 27:14, 33:20, 37:7, 38:15, 40:1, Isaiah 30:18, Lamentations 3:24
John Waller
"The explanation for this song is simple, I was waiting on God and I was hurting when I wrote the lyrics. I probably wouldn’t have written
a song if my friend, Mike, hadn’t encouraged me to document what I was going through during that time. I’m sure there are few people
who can’t relate to this song, but the important thing to remember while we’re waiting on God is to not just wait but to actively wait.
Serve, worship and be faithful with what you have, where you are… “even while (you) wait.”
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait
I will move ahead, bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience
While I’m waiting
I will serve You
While I’m waiting
I will worship
While I’m waiting
I will not faint
I’ll be running the race
Even while I wait
I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it’s not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting on You, Lord

9. Something Big
John Waller
“Attempt something so big for God that it is sure to fail without Him.” I’m not sure who first spoke these words, but they’ve never left
me. I believe the desire to be a part of something greater than ourselves is built into the core of each one of us. That’s the reason I left
Georgia to become the worship pastor of a church plant in south Denver called “Southlink.” I believe that this song will strike a chord
with many visionary dreamers who are contemplating stepping out and doing something that only God can truly do through them. In his
book, “Visioneering,” Andy Stanley said, “A divine vision done God’s way and in God’s timing is sure to succeed.”
I wanna see something I've not seen
Something so big
I wanna be a part of something great
Greater than me
It's time to dream big dreams
To see Your vision
Become reality
‘Cause it’s for You, by You, those who
Love You wanna do
Something so big
It’s destined to fail without You, Lord
It’s gonna fail without You, Lord
Something so great
It takes a miracle to do
We, Your children
Wanna do something big for You
We, yes, we are gonna sing a brand new song
Something so strong
We will be the sound that wakes the dawn
Something so loud
It’s time for breaking through
‘Cause there are no limits
For he who holds the truth
When it’s for You, and by You, and those who
Love You wanna do
Something bigger, something greater
For the glory of Your splendor
Something bigger, something greater
Tell the story of Your wondrous love
Your wondrous love
Those who love You wanna do
As long as we live, let us do something so big for You

10. Sacred Pages
(guest appearance by Mark Miller of Sawyer Brown)
Luke 6:48
John Waller and Scott Johnson
"The famous poet, Elizabeth Barrett Browning wrote, “Earth’s crammed with heaven; And every common bush afire with God; But only he
who sees takes off his shoes; The rest sit around it and pluck blackberries.” My prayer is that God would open our eyes to see and ears to
hear so that we will realize that Heaven is co-existing with us right here and now. This song was written while we were in the studio
tracking the album. The producer, Mark Miller, liked it so much he said, “Let’s cut it.” Mark also sings backup on this song and he sounds
pretty good singing background for a country singer who can’t hear a lick of harmony!"
This earth is crammed with Heaven
And every common bush
Is blazing with the fire of God
But only he who sees
Removes unworthy shoes
To realize holy ground
And I’m standing on the Rock of Ages
I’m basking in miracles
I stand on sacred pages
And this changes everything
Everything I am
This changes everything I am
I tremble when I wonder
How many times You call my name
But only he who hears will turn to You
And I’m driven by a vision
Of countless men who long for God
But only he who dies will live in You
Singing Rock of Ages cleft for me
Let me hide myself in Thee
On Christ the Solid Rock I stand
All other ground is sinking sand
It changes everything I am
On this Rock where I stand
On this Rock I stand
