Track Name: Fill the Fields
Fill the Fields
Written by Tracy Wispelwey
©2008, The Restoration Project

You will be forever
No one sees beyond Your plans
Your wonders are too many for me to count
Your goodness reaches out
To every part of the earth

And we will line the streets and fill the fields
We will run into the parking lots and play grounds
And we will wait for you
We will wait for you

Whose words are always sweet
Whose promises never fail
Who is the one who touches every generation
Who
You

And we will line the streets and fill the fields
We will run into the parking lots and play grounds
And we will wait for you
We will wait for you
Track Name: Hard to Watch Me Die
Hard to Watch Me Die
Written by Tracy Howe

Am-C-G-F throughout


Pour me out, pour me out
I don’t fit inside me anymore
Pour me out, pour me out
I don’t fit inside me anymore

CHORUS:
And it’s hard to watch me die
It’s so hard to watch me die
Its so hard to watch me die
Its so hard to watch me die

Let me fall, let me fall
It’s not worth it anymore
Let me fall, let me fall
It’s not worth it anymore

CHORUS

BRIDGE:
Being found by you
How could I know
It’s too late to stop
The blood is on the ground

CHORUS
Track Name: I Keep Watch
I Keep Watch
Written by Tracy Howe
©2008, The Restoration Project


I keep watch at night
In my quiet darkness
I cannot sleep
Afraid of what my own hands will do

I know how to crush a dream
I know how to tear a man down
And I am afraid of myself

Oh me, be still

God, can you show me what is good?
Guide my hand to trust you
And bring peace
And let me rest
Track Name: How Can We Sing
How Can We Sing
Written by Tracy Howe
©2008, The Restoration Project

I hear children crying
The poor trapped inside the cities
The refugees wandering
How can we sing?

And the powerful are Laughing
The weak are left with nothing
This story is unredeemed
How can we sing?

How can we sing?

We remember you
Where tragedy has fallen
We remember you
Your goodness and your justice
We remember you
When the men of the earth do not
We remember you
Where the men of the earth do not
Track Name: Cannot See Your Hand
I Cannot See Your Hand
Written by Tracy Howe
©2008, The Restoration Project

Oh God, where are you
Why can I not see your hand?

Oh God, do you not see
Your callous people all looking away?

While men wait like lion’s in a den
To steal our children
The trap the poor
And make them fall
Track Name: Come Out
Come Out
Written by Tracy Howe
©2008, The Restoration Project


Come out, child poverty
From the hiding place you’ve found
Inside of fear, inside of violence
Inside the world we made for you

We can’t forget, the things we’ve seen
But we’re sorry for the pain
And years of making, devastating stories
Of who and what you are

Come out and Sing
Come out and Sing
My songs couldn’t save you, but yours may

In the silent aftermath, of a devastating story I stand
Guilty for what I believed
Daylight breaks, just like it did before
And the grace of it all somehow breaks my heart
That we could go on, while darkness descends on you
And threatens to stay

Come out and Sing
Come out and Sing
My songs couldn’t save you, but yours may
Track Name: Take My Hand
Take My Hand
Written by Tracy Howe

Take my hand, touch my heart
take these dry bones, make them walk
to the valley of promise and peace//

Take my story, make it a painting
Take my sister, help her forgive me
set in motion with a word, something redeeming and good//

Take my hand, touch my heart
Let me walk in your gaze, in your tears and your pain
And find the ones you love//

Touch this burnt out forest, bring it to life
Touch this callous man, let him cry
Give us love beyond ourselves//
