Have And Angel Walk With Her

I cherish the ground you walk upon
When you look up I stare you down
But it's not we who hurt the most
Father, Son and Holy Ghost

Free in my thinking
but slave to my thoughts I am
I am

So have an angel walk with her
And the demons stay with me
Some who walk this earth
Are not meant to be free

I curse the hold you have on me
I'd walk the ocean to be free
I want to taste the very kiss
Of all the good things that I miss

Free in my thinking…
but slave to my thoughts I am,
I am

So have an angel walk with her
And the demons stay with me
Some who walk this earth
Are not meant to be free

I have laid awake calling out your name
I have laid myself open to the blame
But I have to say I need to ask
Who on earth would set this task?

So have an angel walk with her
And the demons stay with me...
Some who walk this earth
Are not meant to be free

Dolphins Make Me Cry - Martyn Joseph

Don't know what the world is gonna do
Or if we can get off now
the road that we're on
There's hate in my brother's eye
and as the time goes by
I get harder

They say we learn by our mistakes
and then we carry on
Sometimes I'm not sure
sometimes I'm not sure
There's no brakes on this car
as it rolls down the hill
My muscles are straining now,
my foot's through the floor

Perhaps that's why, perhaps that's why
I see the dolphin and it makes me cry
As I look in your eye as I look in your eye
As the time goes by, it makes me cry

Don't want to go to school anymore today
Coz history keeps on and on
repeating herself
She can't forgive she just licks all of her wounds
And sore is the day
and sore is the night

Perhaps that's why, perhaps that's why
I see the dolphin and it makes me cry
As I look in your eye as I look in your eye
As the time goes by, it makes me cry

When I was a boy when I was growing up
I remember life was so simple then,
life was so sweet
Now that I'm older I am wise as a fool
I keep on breaking
those golden, golden rules

And perhaps that's why, perhaps that's why
I see the dolphin and it makes me cry
As I look in your eye as I look in your eye
As the time goes by, it makes me cry

Did you ever touch the loneliness of a broken man
Did you ever see a starving child die
Do we really do these things to one another
Do you see why... dolphins make me cry

One Of Us (Martyn Joseph)

If god had a name, what would it be?
And would you tell it to his face
if you were faced with Him in all His glory?
What would you ask if you had just one question?

And yeah, yeah, God is great.
Yeah, yeah, God is good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What if god was one of us,
just a slob like one of us,
just a stranger on the bus
trying to make his way home?

And if God had a face, what would it look like?
And would you want to see it there
if seeing meant that you would have to believe
in things like heaven and in Jesus, the saints
and all of the prophets?

Yeah, yeah, God is great.
Yeah, yeah, God is good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What if god was one of us,
just a slob like one of us,
Just a stranger on the bus
trying to make his way home,
back up to heaven all alone.
with nobody calling on the phone,
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome.

Yeah, yeah, God is great.
Yeah, yeah, God is good.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
What if god was one of us,
just a slob like one of us,
just a stranger on the bus
trying to make his way home,
just trying to make his way home,
just like a holy rolling stone?

Back up to heaven all alone,
just trying to make his wayhome.

Nobody calling on the phone,
'cept for the Pope maybe in Rome
