THE AFTERS – Love Lead Me On

Someday I’m gonna go out to the country
I’ll drive til the hightway ends
Chasing after picture perfect sunsets
To take my breath away
I’m tired of living in the city
The world’s got me tied on a string
Wanderlust has overcome me
Like Lewis and Clark I’ll dream
There’s a million different ways to go
Only God can know where I will call my home

Love lead me on
Where no one else has gone
Faith keep me strong
Love lead me on

The open road can be so lonely
I’m longing for someone to love
If only I could share my new surroundings
Open the doors above
There’s a million different ways to go
Only God can know where I will call my home

Love lead me on
Where no one else has gone
Faith keep me strong
Love lead me on

Faith keep me strong
Love lead me home

THE AFTERS – Light Up The Sky

When I’m feeling all alone
With so far to go
The signs are no where on this road
Guiding me home
When the night is closing in
Is falling on my skin
Oh God will You come close?

[Chorus]
Light light light up the sky
You light up the sky to show me You are with me
I I I can’t deny
No I can’t deny that You are right here with me
You’ve opened my eyes
So I can see You all around me
Light light light up the sky
You light up the sky to show me
That You are with me

When stars are hiding in the clouds
I don’t feel them shining
When I can’t see You beyond my doubt
The silver lining
When I’ve almost reached the end
Like a flood You’re rushing in
Your love is rushing in

[Chorus]

So I run straight into Your arms
You’re the bright and morning sun
To show Your love there’s nothing You won’t do

[Chorus]

That You are with me
That You are with me

THE AFTERS – Lift Me Up

You lift me up with your love
You lift me up with your love
You lift me up with your love
You lift me up

Waiting for the sunrise
Waiting for the day
Waiting for a sign
That I’m where you want me to be

You know my heart is heavy
And the hurt is deep
But when I feel like giving up
You’re reminding me
That we all fall down sometimes
But when I hit the ground

You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go
You lift me up when I can’t see
Your heart is all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go

You lift me up with your love
You lift me up with your love
You lift me up with your love
You lift me up

I know I’m not perfect
I know I make mistakes
I know that I have let you down
But you love me the same

And when I’m surrounded
When I lose my way
When I’m crying out and falling down
You are here to

Lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go
You lift me up when I can’t see
Your heart is all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go

I can see the dawn is breaking
I am feeling overtaken with your love
With your love
I don’t know what I can offer
In this moment I surrender to your love
To your love

You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go

You lift me up when I am weak
Your arms wrap around me
Your love catches me so I’m letting go
You lift me up when I can’t see
Your heart is all that I need
Your love carries me so I’m letting go

I can see the dawn is breaking
I am feeling overtaken with your love

You lift me up with your love
You lift me up with your love
You lift me up with your love
You lift me up

THE AFTERS – Life Is Sweeter

My heart is giving up
All my plans are broken
Your face is all I see
Though my world is falling
As I watch you head into the sun
I never thought it was my one
Chance to say goodbye
I never want to say goodbye

Life is sweeter, sweeter
On the other side, on the other side
I will see you, see you
On the other side, on the other side
I’ll find the stars to light me through
I’ll find a way to get to you
Life is sweeter on the other side of here

So far from where you are
But I feel you with me
Your in the place where I belong
Where my life is waiting
As I watch the rising of the sun
I pray that I could have just one
Chance to say goodnight
I never want to say goodbye

Life is sweeter, sweeter
On the other side, on the other side
I will see you, see you
On the other side, on the other side
I’ll find the stars to light me through
I’ll find a way to get to you
Life is sweeter on the other side of here

Everyday I get a little bit closer
To reaching you
But I can’t wait, till I’m with you forever
Everyday I get a little bit closer
To reaching you
But I can’t wait till I hold you forever

Life is sweeter, sweeter
On the other side, on the other side
I will see you, see you
On the other side, on the other side
I’ll find the stars to light me through
I’ll find a way to get to you
Life is sweeter on the other side of here
On the other side of here

THE AFTERS – Life Is Beautiful

Through the window
I see you waiting
You are smiling
Cause I’m coming
Your eyes are a story
An ocean of memories
Pictures of faces and places
And all of the things
That make us feel like we have it all

All of the times
That make us realize
We have it all
We have it all

Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful

Living and dying
Laughing or crying
If we have the whole world or have nothing
I know there are long nights
But we’ll make it
With every sunrise comes a new light
And all of the things
That make us feel like we have it all

All of the times
That make us realize
We have it all
We have it all

Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful

A father’s love
A wedding dance
New Year’s dreams
A toast with friends
A soldier coming home from war
The faith the hope of so much more
A brand new life, a mother’s prayer
Shooting stars, ocean air
A lover’s kiss, and hard goodbyes
Fireworks, Christmas lights

These are things that make us feel alive
These are the times that make us realize

Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful
Life is beautiful

These are the times that make us realize

THE AFTERS – Keeping Me Alive

It’s like I never lived
Before my life with you
So much was missing here
I never even knew
I still picture the place we were
When I fell into your world

[Chorus:]
My heart is in you
Where you go you carry me
I bleed
If you bleed
Your heart beats
Inside of me
You’re keeping me alive

I don’t know why feel this way
But something’s right
You’re like the morning air
Before the light arrives
No more lonely and
No more night
No more secrets to hide

[Chorus]

I’ll hold you near
Together, we’ll never die
Your love is keeping me alive

[Chorus]

THE AFTERS – I Am Yours

I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours

I can walk across the world
And never find the answer
I could search the sky above
And never get any closer
You made it all
And I will have to fall
At the feet of the One
Who fell for me

You gave your life for mine
To have me by your side
I won’t look back anymore
Now that I, I am yours
You’ll never say goodbye
You are the reason why
I won’t look back anymore
Now that I, I am yours

I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours

All the rest can disappear
Without any traces
I have nothing left to fear
As long as Your face is
All I can see
You are all I need
Every breath, every step
You’re here with me

You gave your life for mine
To have me by your side
I won’t look back anymore
Now that I, I am yours
You’ll never say goodbye
You are the reason why
I won’t look back anymore
Now that I, I am yours

I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours

I belong to you
You and you alone
I belong to you
You and you alone
I belong to you
You and you alone

I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours
You’re here with me

You gave your life for mine
To have me by your side
I won’t look back anymore
Now that I, I am yours
You’ll never say goodbye
You are the reason why
I won’t look back anymore
Now that I, I am yours

I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours

I can walk across the world
I can search the sky above
You made it all
And I am Yours

THE AFTERS – Forty-Two

I came into this world to find a reason to live
I came with nothing to give
Nothing I could offer, nothing I could ever do
Before you set the stars up in the sky
You came and took me aside
You told me I was part of the plan
You told me I was yours

Will you tell me what this life is all about
Will you show me how to make my time here count
Will lead the way on, to the other side
Because I want to feel alive

If I could only see right to the end
I’d know just where to begin
I could put together all the little pieces
You carry the world, You hold it in your hands
It’s all a part of your plan
Show me how to love, won’t you help me find my way to you

Will you tell me what this life is all about
Will you show me how to make my time here count
Will lead the way on, to the other side
Because I want to feel alive

There’s a place for us
The perfect place for us

THE AFTERS – For The First Time

There’s a different sunrise
It’s a different world
In a way I feel like
I have just begun

Like I don’t remember
Waking up from a dream
All my chains are broken
And it feels so free

I can breathe for the first time
I can see for the first time
It’s like you opened my eyes
I can feel my heart is coming alive
I feel alive
I can breathe for the first time
For the first time
For the first time
Oh Oh Oh
For the first time
For the first time

Once a life imprisoned
I was locked in the past
But your love has given
Given one more chance

Once my light was fading
But you gave me yours
Now my world is brighter
Than it was before

I can breathe for the first time
I can see for the first time
It’s like you opened my eyes
I can feel my heart is coming alive
I feel alive
I can breathe for the first time
For the first time
For the first time
Oh Oh Oh
For the first time
For the first time

And I’ve never run so far
I’ve never felt so strong
When I am where you are
I found where I belong
For the first time
For the first time

I can breathe for the first time
I can see for the first time
It’s like you opened my eyes
I can feel my heart is coming alive
I feel alive
I can breathe for the first time
For the first time
For the first time
Oh Oh Oh
For the first time
For the first time

THE AFTERS – Falling Into Place

It was raining on the sun
The ground beneath my feet was crumbling
Day and Night had come undone
It was the season of my wandering

Somehow Somewhere
You found me there
It was the moment that it all became clear

I was on the edge
Of a distant world
A shattered life
With no where left to turn
Till I saw you there
And everything I thought had gone to waste
Was falling into place

It’s finally quiet in my head
As I lay the pieces at your feet
It’s finally starting to make sense
I guess I found the missing part of me

Oceans that I almost drowned in
I had to lose it all
Just so I could find out you were there to break my fall

THE AFTERS – Beautiful Words

Slow down
This is such a blur
Tell me what’s the hurry now
Have we been running round in circles
Missing all that we could be
You say it’s not too late

[Chorus:]
We are words
On pages that we’ve left unturned
An ending no one’s ever heard
We are a story slowly unfolding
Beautiful words

I could walk across the ocean
With you walking next to me
And you could melt away this winter
Now we’re starting over
We will see it’s not too late

[Chorus]

That last when everything else has passed
Even when the stars are gone
I know every single beautiful word that we were will live on

[Chorus]

THE AFTERS – Beautiful Love

Far away, I feel your beating heart
All alone, beneath the crystal stars
Staring into space, what a lonely face
I’ll try to find my place with you

[chorus]
What a beautiful smile
Can I stay for awhile?
On this beautiful night
We’ll make everything right
My beautiful love, my beautiful love

Larger than the moon, my love for you
Worlds collide as heaven pulls us through
The secret of the world is written in the stars
I’m carrying your heart in mine

[chorus]
What a beautiful smile
Can I stay for awhile?
On this beautiful night
We’ll make everything right
My beautiful love

Maybe a greater thing will happen
Maybe all will see
Maybe our love will catch like fire
As it burns through me
[3x]

[chorus]

What a beautiful smile
Can I stay for awhile?
On this beautiful night
We’ll make everything right
[2x]

My beautiful love
La la la la love
La la la la love

My beautiful
La la la la love
La la la la love

My beautiful love

THE AFTERS – All That I Am

I feel a burning, deep inside of me
I feel Your Spirit, It’s moving around me
I hear Your voice, You’re calling me closer
I know that You’re here, You’re calling me closer
And I will

[Chorus:]
Love you will all of my heart
Jesus I’ll love You will all of my mind
Jesus I’ll love You will all of my soul
Jesus I’ll love You with all that I am

I know that You hear me when I say my prayers
I know that You’re with me even when I’m all alone
When I close my eyes, You’re calling me closer
When I pull away, You’re pulling me closer
And I will

[Chorus]

You are holy, Lord God Almighty
You are holy, Lord God Almighty
Who Was and Is and soon will come again
Lord you are and now You’re coming again
Just like You said, You’re coming again
And I will

[Chorus]

THE AFTERS – Love Will Make You Beautiful

Time is slipping away
Days go by, fade away
With one eye opened, one closed
I think you know
Love will make you beautiful
Love will make you beautiful
Thoughts swirl, spinning around
Weary, falling down
When out of the darkness a hand
Reach out
Hold fast

[Chorus]
Love will make you beautiful
Love will make you beautiful

Turn round this time
Love is there to find
Lift your head and see
Open uo your eyes
Love will make you beautiful
Love will make you beautiful
