For The Record

Bruce Carroll For The Record Lyrics
1.Breaking The Law Of Love

Lord I'm Laying down this life of Contradiction,
All the sunday resolutions & the monday rational
Cause my Righteousness is filthy rags & Fiction,
When I'm talking love & Charity & Living something else,
The idle talk I spread is really gossip, and this thing I call
discernment,
is just judgement in disguise,and I keep myself so busy being
busy,
that I'm looking past the wounded people right B4 my eyes ,I've
been..
(Chorus)
Breaking the Law of Love, Seeking the way of the one Above,
Jesus come & make me whole, heal my heart
& keep my soul from breaking the Law of Love
Lord Even tho I know that I'm not worthy,
I believe U came to heal us & to make our hearts Your home,
To pour Your Spirit out in broken vessels,
and love thru us in ways that we could not love on our own
Keep us from... (Chorus)
The More I let U fill me w/ Your mercy,The more I'll love my
neighbor
and the less I'll find myself..(Chorus)


2.Driving Nails

Since that blessed night in a manger, she watched her baby grow,
It seems Like yesterday He was in her arms, where did the time
go?,
He learned His Fathers trade, as she marveled at It all,
The sweat dropped from her Little Carpenter as He made the
timbers fall,
(Chorus)
She can hear the driving nails upon the Hillside,
and she prays that His spirit will not fail,
she watches as a young man undertakes His Fathers Will,
as she stands and listens to the driving nails
In the streets of Jerusalem a child can disappear ,
She was frantic as She looked for Him, Until She began to hear,
the hammers up at the temple, she called Him as she ran,
surprised she found Him teaching like no ordinary man
(Chorus)
Darkness covered all the land in the middle of the day,
she began to tremble as the earth began to quake,
Hammers, Nails & Timbers of The Carpenters Trade,
made the sound that pierced her soul as the Cross was being
raised
(Chorus)
And She cries and Listens To the Driving Nails


3.Sometimes Miracles Hide

They were so excited it was coming to be, two people so in love
and now soon there would be three, for many years they planned
it.
Now soon it would be true, She was picking out the pink clothes,
he was
looking at the blue.
The call came unexpected the doctor had bad news, Some tests
came back
and things weren't right, said you're gonna have to choose,
'I'll wait a week for your decision' and then the words cut like
a
knife ,
'I'm sure everyone will understand if you want to end its life'.
Though they were badly shaken they just had no choice,
Because they knew God creates no accidents and they were sure
they
heard His voice Sayin'.
(chorus)
sometimes miracles hide, and God will wrap some blessings in
disguise
and you may have to wait this lifetime
to see the reasons with your eyes, cause sometimes miracles hide
It seemed before they knew it the appointed day arrived,
with eager apprehension they could barely hold inside,
The first time they laid eyes on her confirmed the doctors fears
but they held onto God promise they were sure they both could
hear.
(chorus)
Though she was not like the other girls they thought she was the
best,
and through all the years of struggle neither whispered one
regret.
And the first day that she started school and took her first bus
ride,
they'd remembered the words that God had spoke and they both
broke down
and cried.
You see to them it did not matter why some things in life take
place,
cause they just knew the joy they felt when they'd look into her
face.
They learned that sometimes miracles hide,
they said God Has wrapped our blessing in disguise and
we may have to wait this lifetime to see the reasons with our
eyes,
we know sometimes miracles hide. We've learned sometimes
miracles hide.


4.Who Will Be Jesus?

He came home from work last night, to find that she is gone,
Now He's spending his first Sunday sitting in the pew alone,
There are whispers all around him, His heart breaks in two,
He's wondering who will reach out and help him make it through,
She has a reputation like the woman at the well ,
The only love she ever knew was the kind she buys and sells,
But her thirsty heart is searching for a love that will be true,
The Savior cries for her to see Himself in me and you,
Who Will be Jesus to her?, Who'll show the love that's commanded
in His
word?,
Will she see in us the mighty God we serve?, Who will Be Jesus
to her?
Wonded People everywhere, and when they look at us, do they see
Jesus
there?
Who Will be Jesus to Them?, Who'll show the love that restores
Them
again?,
Oh, They do not need a judge, They need a friend, Who will Be
Jesus to
Them?
Who will be Jesus to them?
