CROWN HIM WITH MANY CROWNS - Michael W. Smith

Crown him with many crowns,
the lamb upon the throne:
hark! how the heav'nly anthem drowns
all music but its own!
awake, my soul, and sing
of him who died for thee,
and hail him as thy matchless king
thru all eternity.
crown him with many crowns
crown him with many crowns
Crown him the lord of heav'n:
one with the father known.
one with the spirit thru him giv'n
from yonder glorious throne.
to thee be endless praise.
for thou hast died for me;
be thou, o lord, thru endless days
adored and magnified
Adored and magnified
crown him with many crowns
His glories now we sing,
who died and rose on high,
who died eternal life to bring
and...lives that death may die.
Crown him with many crowns

CROSS OF GOLD - Michael W. Smith

Where do you stand
what is your statement
what is it you're trying to say
what's in your hand
what's in your basement
what's in the cards you don't play
are you holding the key
or are you intending
to pick the lock of heaven's gate
it's confusing to me
the message you're sending
and i don't know if i can relate

Chorus:

What's you line
tell me why you wear your cross of gold
state of mind
or does it find a way into your soul
Is it a flame
is it a passion
a symbol of love living in you
or is it a game
religion in fashion
some kind of pahse you're going thru
we all travel the extremes
from cellar to rafter
looking for a place in the sun
so i'm trying to see
what you're headed after
but i don't know where you're coming from

Chorus bridge: (spoken)

For some it's simply something to wear around your neck
just a chain
jewelry
is it decoration?
is it an icon
or proclomation?
an icon of what?
what?
for some it's simply something to wear around your neck
just a chain
it means a lot more than that to me

CROSS MY HEART - Michael W. Smith

Ink and paper, epic offers
glass moon waltzing on the waters
horse and carriage
i am courting the marriage
of dreams in the wings
of visions unseen

Chorus:

Cross my heart
only your love will do
cross my heart over you
cross my heart
there is room enough for two
cross my heart over you, over you
Inside, feels like there's a thunder
spellbound, you've take me under
gold and diamond
ever saying that i'm in this forevermore
you can be sure

Chorus
