Come Out And Play Lyrics by Sara Groves

I get so serious

All up in my head

Trying to sort it out

Kind of leaves me feeling dead

Everywhere you go

You should play a little

You can play a little

Everywhere you go

CHORUS

Come out and play baby yeah,

Come out a play just a little

We got it bad baby yeah

Work so hard

To kick it down the middle

Heavy in your heart

Come play just a little

You work real hard

Get your job done

Leave it at the office

Come home for some fun

Everywhere you go

You can play a little

You should play a little

Everywhere you go

CHORUS

You haven't lived out

The dreams in your head

None of it's happened

Exactly how you said

Leave you expectation

Behind a while and come

on out and play

CHORUS

Sara Groves - BONUS: Childhood Summer Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album

BONUS: Childhood Summer Lyrics by Sara Groves

Grab a shovel

Grab a pail

We might be gone all day

Acting out these fairy tales

Running jumping in the waves

CHORUS

I miss innocence

I miss the arms of my mother

I miss feeling light

Like a childhood summer

Childhood summer

Grown up burdens

Consequence

Hear the wolves bay at the door

So much concrete

Evidence

We're not children any more

CHORUS TWICE

Sara Groves - Finite Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Finite Lyrics by Sara Groves

I'm not every woman

It's not all in me

I’m proud and guarded

When it comes to my needs

Try to keep the whole thing rolling

Try to keep an on time train

This frenetic fascination's

Really driving me insane

Anybody feel that?

Anybody feel that?

Anybody feel that?

What God meant by woman

I’m hard pressed to find

I'm chasing paper dreams

And a guilt undefined

Fighting to stay younger

Trying to stay thin and in control

Searching for a magic formula

A thing to soothe our souls

Wonderin' where the peace went

Wonderin' where the peace went

Wonderin' where the peace went

CHORUS

I'm finite I come to an end

I'm finite I come to an end

Try to keep the whole thing rollin'

Try to keep an on time train

This frenetic fascinations'

Really drivin' me insane

Anybody feel that?

Anybody feel that?

Anybody feel that?

I'm finite, I come to an end

I’m finite, I cannot pretend

I'm finite, I come to an end

I’m finite, I cannot pretend

Sara Groves - Mystery Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Mystery Lyrics by Sara Groves

I see my faith before me

It's always there before

And I can no more own it

Than I can own the road that I’m on

And I don't know where it leads me

I don't know where it leads me

Peace and resurrection

Suffering and dejection

I don't know

CHORUS

My body's tired from trying to bring you here

My brow is furrowed trying to see things clear

So I'll turn my back to the black

And fall

And wait for the mystery

To rise up and meet me

There are as many takers

As there are hearts to take it

There are so many fakers

I myself have faked it

I should know

Sometimes this has left me

Groping in the darkness

Hoping in the darkness

I will run into you again

CHORUS

…Rise up and lead me home

CHORUS

…Pray for the mystery

To rise up and meet me

Oh I’ll wait for your mystery

To rise up and lead me home

I'm tired of blaming everybody else

I'm sorry if I blamed you

I have everything I need to be myself

I have what I need to love you

There’s no way to brace myself

There’s no way to sort it all out

What you need from me I can do it right now

I can do it right now

What you need from me I can do it right now

What you want from me I can do it right now

What you want from me I can do it right now

I can do it right now

Sara Groves - Without Love Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Without Love Lyrics by Sara Groves

You can rise in the halls of power

You can speak to the masses

You can heal their disease

You can stand as the man of the hour

You can bring them to their feet

You can bring them to their knees

CHORUS

Without love I have not

Without love, without love

You can fall on the blade of the martyr

You can give all your possessions to the poor

You can tell all you've seen of the future

Predict every famine every war

CHORUS

Love always protects, love always trusts,

Love always hopes the best for us

Love is slow to anger, love isn't proud

Love never fails us, love will never fails us

CHORUS

Without love I am nothing

Without love I am nothing

Without love I am nothing at all

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album

Eyes On The Prize Lyrics by Sara Groves

Hold On (Hold On) / Hold On (Hold On) / Keep your eyes on the prize / Hold On

Well the only chains that we can stand / Are the chains of hand in hand

Keep your eyes on the prize / Hold on

Got my hand on the freedom plow / Won’t take nothing for my journey now

Keep your eyes on the prize / Hold on

Hold On (Hold On) / Hold On (Hold On)

Keep your eyes on the prize / Hold On

Paul and Silas, bound in jail

Got no money for to go their bail

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

Paul and Silas thought they’d lost

The dungeon shook and the chains fell off

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

Freedom’s name is mighty sweet

And one day soon we are gonna meet

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

Got my hand on the gospel plow

Won’t take nothing for my journey now

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

CHORUS

The way is slow

And we’ve so far to go

Keep your eyes on the prize

Only chain a man can stand

Is that chain of hand in hand

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

Ain’t no man on earth control

The weight of the glory on a human soul

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

CHORUS

When you see a man walk free

It makes you dream of jubilee

When you see a child walk free

It makes you dream of jubilee

When you see a family free

It makes you dream of jubilee

Keep your eyes on the prize

Hold on

Sara Groves - Precious Again Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Precious Again Lyrics by Sara Groves

Sunrise, sunset with no eyes to see it

Garnets and rubies ground up in the sand

Words from my children with no ears to hear it

Where is the wonder

New tender mercies and infinite graces

Woven like threads in the cloth of my days

Deep wells of glory behind common faces

Where is the wonder, where is the wonder

Oh, I need a song that is never old

Oh, I need a story never told

Promise the just when love grows cold

You'll make it precious again

Friendship and good will a sweet invitation

Kindred in spirit and eager to share

Love in familiar and long conversations

There is the wonder, there is the wonder

Oh, sing me the song that is never old

Oh, tell me the story never told

Promise the just when love grows cold

You'll make it precious

Press mud with holy fingers

Light the ineffable

Fused in the ordinary

So much to wonder

Oh, what a wonder

Oh, sing me the song that is never old

Oh, tell me the story never told

Promise the just when love grows cold

You'll make it precious

Oh make it precious

You make it precious again

Sara Groves - Open My Hands Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Open My Hands Lyrics by Sara Groves

I believe in a blessing I don't understand

I’ve seen rain fall on wicked and the just

Rain is no measure of his faithfulness

He withholds no good thing from us

No good thing, no good thing from us

I believe in a peace that flows deeper than pain

That broken find healing in love

Pain is no measure of his faithfulness

He withholds no good thing from us

No good thing from us, no good thing from us

CHORUS:

I will open my hands will open my heart

I will open my hands will open my heart

I will show up and play the smallest part

I am nodding my head an emphatic yes

To all that You have for me

I believe in a fountain that will never dry

Though I've thirsted and didn't have enough

Thirst is no measure of his faithfulness

He withholds no good thing from us

No good thing from us, no good thing from us

CHORUS

No good thing from us

No good thing from us

He withholds no good thing from us

CHORUS

Sara Groves - Scientists In Japan Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Scientists In Japan Lyrics by Sara Groves

Scientists in Japan are building a robot to take your job

Doctors in France are growing a heart that will save your mom

Eyes wide open, and your jaw on the floor

We see science fiction ain't fiction no more

There's a meeting of minds slowly designing our future days

Back at the office they're running some copies from the DNA

We rob from Peter to extend Paul's life

Cause dying ain’t no way to die

CHORUS;

Who's gonna stay here and think about it

Who’s gonna stay, who's gonna stay

Who's gonna stay here and think about it

Who’s gonna stay

Everybody's left the room

There's no one here to talk it through

Now stay, stay, stay

Set machines in motion, just to set machines in motion, just to

watch ‘em roll

There's no destination in sight just the rhythm of a barcarole

Don't know where we're going, but we've got the means

Put a front load washer in our time machine

CHORUS

Eyes wide open and your jaw on the floor

We see science fiction ain’t fiction no more

CHORUS

Sara Groves - I'll Wait Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album

I'll Wait Lyrics by Sara Groves

I can't run with the horses

If I can't keep up with men

I can fight all these forces

On my own and never win

I can take it from here

And have no where to go

I could take it for years

And have nothing to show

I can work like the devil

Build a tower to the sky

I can work for my possessions

‘Till they empty me of life

I can build my own house

And be building in vain

I can plant a seed

But I can't bring the rain

CHORUS

I'll wait for you

Now more than ever

I see it's true

Now more than ever

I’ll wait for you now

I can take my own vengeance

Make a war of all my pain

I can get my own insurance

Find a way to lay the blame

I can win the whole world

And lose my own soul

Holding on for dear life

Spinning out of control

CHORUS

I don't want to do this by myself

I know I need your help

And so I'm waiting for you

I can take it from here

And have no where to go

I can take it for years

And have nothing to show

CHORUS

I don't want to do this by myself

I know I need your help

And so I'm waiting for you

Sara Groves - Obsolete Lyrics

Christian Song Lyrics Invisible Empires Album
Obsolete Lyrics by Sara Groves

It's hard to feel obsolete

It's hard to feel your skirts are showing

You pull and tug to hide the works

That keep the whole thing going

And you don't know where you stand

And you feel so small and thin

And if you are dismissed

Will another take you in?

Walking through a hall of doors

Looking through a million portals

Everyone is having fun

Everybody seems immortal

And you don't know where you stand

And did something pass you by?

And if you are dismissed

Will you get another try?

Are you and I an apparition

Flickering up on the screen

Sending out our best transmissions

Waiting in our velveteen

Tell me you can really see me

It's hard to feel disqualified

For living in a different time

As if the train will only stop

For the current paradigm

And I don't know where we are

Are we passing through these wires

Are we walking through the streets

Of invisible empires

And I know I shouldn't care

If I'm out or if I'm in

Cause if I am dismissed

Oh you always take me in

Miracle Lyrics by Sara Groves

Lay down your arms

Give up the fight

Quiet our hearts for a little while

Things have been spoken

Shouldn't be said

Rattles around in our hearts and our heads

CHORUS

Let's feel what we cannot feel

Know what we cannot know

Let’s heal where we couldn't heal

Oh, it's a miracle, it's a miracle

Things have been spoken

Shouldn't be said

Rattles around in our hearts and our heads

CHORUS

Oh, it’s a miracle, love is a miracle

CHORUS

Let's say what we cannot say

Let’s see what we cannot not see

Let’s hear what we could not hear

Oh it’s a mystery, love is a mystery

Oh it's a miracle, it's a miracle

Let's be a miracle
