FILAMENT
Jonathan Noël/Amanda Noël

I’ve no mind for waiting,
Dreaming of one last dance
Before it’s done and said
Like I’m waking
From a long trance
Too much time’s already been Wasted

I ran from the shadows
It made me crazy
Trying to stay within the lines
So I raised a tower
Here on the border
To separate my heart and mind

Just to sit there in the dark
And wait until the dawn (but)

The sun won’t need to shine
When we light what’s left of
You and I
And we burn like filament
‘Til we’re having none of it

I’ve handled the fire
Played in the embers
Only now to feel the burn
I fight the desire
To pull away and
Embrace the pain with every turn

And I sit here in the flame
'Til all is stripped away (and)

The sun won’t need to shine
When we light what’s left of
You and I
And we burn like filament
‘Til we’re having none of it

The Old Man pays a visit
Yea, he’ll come back
Tip his hat
But there will be no home where He can hang it

The sun won’t need to shine
When we light what’s left of
You and I
And we burn like filament
‘Til we’re having none of it

And the flames will
Light the sky
If we strike the match and
Let it fly
And we burn like we were meant
‘Til we’re having none of it

UNDERTOW (FOREVER AND ENOUGH)
Jonathan Noël/Daniel Haseltine

Had some time to think
It through
Scope the valley from
Me to you
On the edge of my world
The impasse I’d wandered to

Built a bridge from the
Things I know
Saw the bend, felt the
Weight take hold
And crumble around
The fool and his crown and

My hope found rest
In the midst of brokenness
My faith, Your love
Forever and enough

When you knew my
Eyes were closed
You let the current
Have its flow
I never saw the wave
But I caught the undertow

And awoke deep
In it’s sway
A million miles I’d
Drifted away
From the weight of fear
That kept me anchored here when

My hope found rest
In the midst of brokenness
My faith, Your love
Forever and enough

so pour it out
from Your fount
let Your water fill,
Your praises fill my mouth

from the edge of my world
I caught the undertow

My hope found rest
In the midst of brokenness
My faith, Your love
Forever and enough

My faith, my hope
Found rest, Your love
Enough

WOULD WE BE BLUE
Jonathan Noël/Mitch Dane

Would we be blue, dear,
Or simply adjust
Should all the world fall
Down upon us
If all the lies shake
What we held true
When it’s all over
Would we be...

Like the canopy of light that covers
Our world
The luminescent veil
That hides the darkness we search
If it was lifted up and the
Shadows revealed
Something bigger than us
Would we be...

Like the deep current
Running through the Seven Seas
Baring the mysteries
Hopelessly lying beneath
If the water rose high again to
Hasten us back
Over and under the Blue..

Dear,
Would we adjust
Should all the world fall
Down upon us
If all the lies shake
What we held true
When it’s all over
Would we be...

Like the branching veins,
Burning just under our skin
Carrying the blood of our
Father’s and their father’s sin
If it spilled upon the ground
And no one’s around
Would it remain...

Blue, dear,
Or simply adjust
Should all the world fall
Down upon us (and)
If all the lies shake
What we held true
When it’s all over
When we grow older
Will we be colder
Will we be bolder
Would we be blue

LYNDON
Jonathan Noël/Amanda Noël

She finds me in my slumber
She pours her light into my eyes
In my eyes
Pictures weave and my mind’s
A spinning wheel
It takes me back again
Her trees are white
We are children
Try to run and catch the sun
Yea, we were held by something

When we sleep we are angels
Nothing holding down our ankles
I wake and I chase the end but
I can’t get there from here

And this is what we have now
Tomorrow’s yesterday
Like holy ground
We walk upon
Children
And with the sun it will be done
And leave us to our dreaming

When we sleep we are angels
Nothing holding down our ankles
I wake and I chase the end but
I can’t get there

To where the mountains hem me in
In my dreams I’m there again

When we sleep we are angels
Nothing holding down our ankles
I’ll chase her streets again but
I can’t get there, no
I can’t get there
Can’t get there from here

SILENT MOVIE
Jonathan Noël/Andrew Gullahorn

I was lost and wandering,
Desperate for someone to guide me
You had no words to say
Just started walking beside me

And sometimes the best advice is
Better seen than heard
Like a silent movie
Talking without words

When I came for help again
Some wisdom that I could borrow
You still had no words to give
Only footsteps to follow

Like a silent movie
Speak into the eyes
You paint the world a window and
Show it what's inside
‘Cause sometimes the best advice is
Better seen than heard
Like a silent movie
Talking without words

Just like some guy I knew
In some book I read somewhere
Always had something to do
To show that he cared

Like a silent movie
Speak into the eyes
You paint the world a window
And show it what's inside
‘Cause sometimes the best advice is
Better seen than heard
Like a silent movie
Talking without words

Talking without
Talking

SERENADE
Jonathan Noël/Staci Frenes/Amanda Noël

Here’s a shower for
Your thirsty little soul
I thought you’d like to know
That you’ve been on my mind
I hung a star out your window
In hopes that you would find
It’s brilliance in the night
A portrait, painted just to
Show you that

My love for you has
Never been a secret
And if you’d just believe it
I think you might find some
Peace inside if you
Only knew that I am ever closer
A hand upon your shoulder can you
Feel it, can you see it

That I have loved you ever since
Before you can recall
Through every rise and fall
Of your Fragile, seeking heart
And I have signed your name in the
Hollow of my hand and
Every grain of sand could never
Count the times I think of you and

And in the night, now can you hear it
My song of love that’s raining down
When the sun cannot be found
It will light your world

You know

It just a shower for
Your thirsty little soul
I thought you’d like to know
That you’ve been on my mind

JUST COME IN
Margaret Becker

What do I see
You dragging up here
Is that for your atoning?
I know you're sorry
I've seen your tears
You don't have to show Me
What makes you think you must
Make that go away
I forgot when I forgave
I wish you would

Just come in
Just leave that right there
Love does not care
Just come in
Lay your heart right here
You should never fear

You think you've crossed
Some sacred line
And now I will ignore you
If you look up
You will find
My heart is still toward you
Look at the sky
The east to the west
That's where I threw this
When you first confessed
Let it go now

Just come in
Just leave that right there
Love does not care
Just come in
Lay your heart right here
You should never fear

I will forgive you
No matter what you've done
No matter how many times
You turn and run
I love you
Wish you'd come

Just come in
Just leave that right there
Love does not care
Just come in
Lay your heart right here
You should never fear

AND CAN IT BE

And can it be that I should gain
An interest in the Savior’s blood?
Died He for me, who caused His pain—
For me, who Him to death pursued?
Amazing love! How can it be,
That Thou, my God, shouldst die for me?

He left His Father’s throne above
So free, so infinite His grace—
Emptied Himself of all but love,
And bled for Adam’s helpless race:
’Tis mercy all, immense and free,
For O my God, it found out me!

Long my imprisoned spirit lay,
Fast bound in sin and nature’s night;
Thine eye diffused a quickening ray—
I woke, the dungeon flamed with light;
My chains fell off, my heart was free,
I rose, went forth, and followed Thee.

No condemnation now I dread;
Jesus, and all in Him, is mine;
Alive in Him, my living Head,
And clothed in righteousness divine,
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown (and lay it down)
Bold I approach the eternal throne,
And claim the crown, through Christ my own.

Words: Charles Wesley, Psalms and Hymns, 1738.
Music: Jeremiah Ingalls

BEAUTIFUL SAVIOR
Jonathan Noël

Beautiful Savior
Lover of my soul
You hide me 'neath Your wing
Safe from the storm

Beautiful Savior
Light in my darkness
You fill up my heart with
Songs of deliverance

You will I treasure
Now and forever
And will my mouth ever
Sing Your praise

Beautiful Savior
Lord of creation
You shine far brighter
Than all heavens angels

Merciful Savior
My Comfort and Friend
You, like a Shepherd
Lead ‘til the end

You will I treasure
Now and forever
And will I follow You
All my days

Beautiful Savior
Beautiful Savior

Beautiful Savior
Friend for the Sinner
Your blood has bought us
O Gracious Redeemer

You will we treasure
Now and forever
And will our eyes ever
Seek Your face

You will we treasure
Now and forever
And will we follow You
All our days

Beautiful Savior
