Love Will Lead Us There
© 2012 Sky Nelson
Verse
Think for yourself, do what you love
think for yourself, do what you love
If you can simply see what matters
Then love will lead you there
Verse
You love the things you’ve always done
You love the things you’ve always done
If only you can see your history
Then love will lead you there
Chorus
Love will lead, love will lead
Love will lead you there
Verse
Your vision of tomorrow matters
Your vision of tomorrow matters
If everyone can see the picture
Then love will lead us there
Chorus
Love will lead, love will lead
Love will lead us there
(Spoken)
The world is changing, we all feel it in our hearts, and we see it around us
And you and I are a part of that change
But we don’t need to know which way to go, or what to do, because love is leading the way
Bridge/Chorus
There’s water on the window, it’s cleaning off the view
And Solutions everywhere
Love will lead, love will lead
Love will lead us there
Love will lead, love will lead
Love will lead us there

Sacred Ground
Sky Nelson ©2012
Verse
Welcome home, settle back
Although the world is wound up you can just relax
Let the problems of your day
Evaporate to atmosphere and melt away
You’re getting stronger tonight
You’ve made your offers of compromise
Chorus
So carve out your sacred ground
Silence can be profound
Set your boundaries around
Carve out your sacred ground
Verse
it’s the age of too much to do
But you are more than all the things you commit to
if you’re not sure where to begin
Make a little space around and go within
You’re getting stronger tonight
You’ve made your offers of compromise
Chorus
So carve out your sacred ground
Silence can be profound
Set your boundaries around if
Carve out your sacred ground
Chorus repeat in vocal chant

It Cannot Help But Come To Be
Sky Nelson © 2013-03-18
Verse:
This precious place
It holds a charge
Can change a life
Can light a spark
An open heart
Is what it asks
Paying forward
Giving back
Chorus:
Imagine More
And from that seed
It cannot help
But come to be
It cannot help
But come to be
Verse:
You step on stage
You take command
You feel the privilege of the platform where you stand
Your message flies
And then it lands
Upon the open hearts delivered to your hands
Chorus
Bridge
Look what we have created
Look what we have created
Look what we have created
Look what we have created
Chorus

I’m Not Held Back
©Sky Nelson 2012
In C
A
I’m not held back, by anybody’s view of me
I’m not held back by thoughts of insecurity
I’m not held back by opinions that I don’t believe
And I will find the love I seek!
Chorus
I won’t give up
I won’t back down
I’ll take it on
I’m not held back
I won’t give up
I’ll stand my ground
And in my love
I’m not held back
A (half groove)
I won’t give up when I see impossibility
I’m not constrained by the limitations others see
I’ve got more strength, than the problems that are thrown at me
And I will not accept defeat!
Chorus
I won’t give up
I won’t back down
I’ll take it on
I’m not held back
I won’t give up
I’ll stand my ground
And in my love
I’m not held back
Bridge:
This is my day (I breathe it in)
I’m not held back
Brush fear away (I breathe it out)
still not held back
I’ll give it everything I have
No one else can tell me who I am
Chorus
I won’t give up
I won’t back down
I’ll take it on
I’m not held back
I won’t give up
I’ll stand my ground
And in my love
I’m not held back
Outro:
I’ll take it on
And in my love
I’m not held back

We Are the Ones (We’ve Been Waiting For)
© Sky Nelson 2008
Intro
We won't believe what were told to believe in
We are the ones we've been waiting for
Verse
Its Presidents' Day, and I drive to the water, I find myself laughing at nothing
I stare at the seagulls smiling above me, crying at the top of their lungs.
They just do what they can, they don't worry about the men and women on the beach who throw stones.
They laugh ‘cause they want to, and sing ‘cause they have to, to feed their souls
Chorus
Our love is bigger than the strongest of arguments
we are the ones we've been waiting for
we won't believe what were told to believe in
we are the ones we've been waiting for
Verse
I've drawn within boundaries, took just what was offered, and found myself grasping at nothing.
God, won't you give me the life I deserve, I have suffered enough. Doesn’t it show?
But I get no reply, and I stare through the silence like an arrow can tear through a heart.
I'm going to love ‘cause it's Here, and live ‘cause it's Now, to feed my soul
Chorus
Bridge
We twist and we turn to avoid all the warnings,
but this is our chance to rise up and be more than
history’s turn of the screw, it's different this time!
Verse
Philosophy’s not good for much; it just points at the truth, and it mocks at what's real.
I can see there is something in me more than just what I think and I feel.
Sometimes a trip to the bottom is the richest of treasures, if that's what it takes
to get back on the bike, and on with your life, and finally know what your soul has to say
LOVE IS WHAT WE ARE
Chorus
Outro
