Blue Skies

I saw a clearing in the clouds today
Much to my surprise, yay
The winds of change are blowing love my way
Sure as the sun is gonna rise
You know I can't hold it back,
(I can't hold it back)
No I can't hold it back
(I can't hold it back)

Nothin' but blue skies now
And long-awaited days
To know how You love me, ooh
Has helped me change my ways

[scat singing]

Watchin' fall and winter turn to spring
Makes me feel so strange
And I can see all of the colors that love can bring
You know I'm so pleased that seasons change
You know I can't hold it back, whoo!
(I can't hold it back)
I can't hold it back
(I can't hold it back)

Nothin' but blue skies now
And long-awaited days
To know how You love me, ooh
Has helped me change my ways

Summer sun is comin' back to melt my troubles away
I'm amazed at the worries I can leave behind
Think I'll stay just where I'm at
It's a heavenly new day
Everyday, everyday, I'm walkin' in the sunshine!

(Nothin' but blue skies now)
Ooh, yeah!
And long-awaited days
(To know how You love me, ooh)
Know how you love me
Has helped me change my ways

(Nothin' but blue skies now)
Nothin' but blue skies
And long-awaited days
(To know how You love me, ooh)
Has helped me change my ways

Walkin' in the sunshine
Oh, oh, oooh
Long-awaited days
In the blue skies

Step By Step
By Bryan Duncan & Michael Omartian

I'm startin' over for the rest of my life
Mistakes I can never take back
Made my decisions, I'm willing, I'm able
With Your help on my side
I know it's easier to run away
Than to face the way I feel
I know I need You but I'm still afraid
It's a last chance
Gonna trust You now for the first time
Takin' it

Step by step,
Like walkin' on water
To a land no man can see
Step by step by step
A little step closer to
The man I long to be

All the things they've said and I've quoted
What a man's world is supposed to be
Can I be strong, yet be humble and tender
And allow you to watch over me, yeah?
I'm self-sufficient though I'm all alone
In control and insecure
I know you know how hard this is for me
To admit I'm wrong
But after everything else I've tried
Now I'm takin' it

Step by step, oh yeah
(Like walkin' on water)
To a land no man can see
(Step by step)
Step by step
Learnin' to dance once more
For the joy that can set me free
(Step by step by step)
No it ain't easy
(No)
To believe love is liftin' me, yeah
(Step by step)
A little step closer to
The man I long to be

Whoo!

(Step, step)

I'm takin' it
Step by step,
Like walkin' on water
(I'm walkin')
To a land no man can see
(Step by step by step)
Learnin' to dance once more
For the joy that can set me free
(Step by step)
No it ain't easy
(No it ain't easy)
To believe love is liftin' me
(Step by step by step)
A little step closer to
The man I long to be, yeah

(Step)
A little step closer
(By step)
Closer to the man that I long to be
(Step)
Closer
A little step
(By step)
Closer to the man that I long to be
(Step)
A little step
(Step)
Step at a time
Come on step
(Step by step)
See you gettin' closer to
(By step)
Here I come, gettin' a little closer to
(Step by step)
Hey, a little closer
Comin' on
(Step by step)
Here I come closer to
[scat singing]
(Step, step by step)

Into My Heart
By Bryan Duncan & Reed Vertelney

You've got me shakin', time out
I thought I had You figured out
But I've been mistaken somehow
Thought I'd learned the truth by now
I guess I've been thinkin' way too much
Could be I'm out of touch

Gotta get You
(Into my heart and out of my head)
Sometimes they're just so far apart
(Into my heart and out of my head)
I need Your help to find a way
Into my heart

I keep my distance, my pride
Such a clever place to hide
What a sad existence in my mind
Another precious waste of time
The best way to change my mind I've found
And turn my life around

Is to get You
(Into my heart and out of my head)
No mind games, I'll take love instead
(Into my heart and out of my head)
I need Your help to find a way
(I need Your help)
Into my heart

Oh it would be so easy just to lock my heart away
Turn my back and I would never have to say
Long as I live, I need you
To feel the way that I do
Oh!
Oh! Oh! Ooooo!

(Into my heart and out of my head)
Sometimes they're just so far apart
(Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way)
(Into my heart and out of my head)
Oh! I'll take love instead
(Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way
Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way
Into my heart and out of my head)
Ooooo!
(I need Your help to find the way
Into my heart and out of my head
I need Your help to find the way
I'm out of my head!
Into my heart and out of my head

Love Takes Time
by Bryan Duncan & Chuck Barth

Oh, have you ever been lied to?
Maybe mistreated
Taken for granted
'Til you just can't stand it?
Were you ever mistaken?
Thought to be someone
That you just can't be?
So, where's the love you need?

(Love takes time
Please be kind
See every part of me)
Cause I wanna be loved!
(Love ain't blind
Ties that bind
Take on eternity)

Oh, would you like to be trusted
Well, for once in your life?
Carry that fire
Without burnin' each other
Are you easily angry
Oh, can you bury your pride
Could you ever forgive me
And not keep it inside??

(Love takes time
Please be kind
See every part of me)
Cause I wanna be loved!
(Love ain't blind
Ties that bind
Take on eternity)
Cause I wanna be loved!
(Love takes time
Please be kind
See every part of me)
Oh, yeah!
(Love ain't blind
Ties that bind
Take on eternity)

Hey! make a sacrifice sometimes
Maybe more than you planned
Don't you hate to go through
The pain it takes to make a stand
A hardened heart or a heartache
To admit that you're wrong
And though it's hard
It hardly matters if that love is gone
Make a sacrifice sometimes!

(Love takes time
Please be kind
See every part of me)
Cause I wanna be loved!
(Love ain't blind
Ties that bind
Take on eternity, on eternity)
(Love takes time
Please be kind
See every part of me, every part of me)
(Love ain't blind
Ties that bind
Take on eternity, on eternity
Love takes time
Please be kind)
Please be kind!
(See every part of me)

Don't Help The Devil
by Bryan Duncan for Slam Duncan Music

I got a friend who thinks he's right on time,
he's got the answers for everyone else on a shelf
He's really angry but he says he's fine
Sees his finger point but not the three back at himself

* how deep does your love run ... Before your love runs out
How long you gonna talk about others before you're all talked out
You better get used to yourself now... Some things you can't control
Maybe ask for what you need a little more help for
And Don't help the Devil... Devil's doin pretty good on his own

I got a sister knows a thing or two
she's keepin track of all the nasty little things that I do
Got a name for every game I play
And tells her friends that you didn't hear it from me

*repeat

I'm never more than one step away from things I used to do
It only takes a push from behind to make me act the fool
And so I take a look at myself... And I gotta say...

No Words..........
by Bryan Duncan

Up all night tryin to write everything about love I understand
So there's no words to this song
You and me through thick and thin thank you lord but where do I begin
Cause there's no words for this song

Chorus... A lot I could say but nothing quite feels right
cause there's no words there's just no words at all...

In the brief light of my own clear mind thought I'd write how I love my time
with you... But there's no words for this song...
Could be wrong that's alright, I'm just sayin how grateful I am...
And there's no words for this song

Chorus... A lot I could say but nothing quite feels right
cause there's no words there's just no words at all...
flowery words won't do when I think of you
and how grateful lord I am there's just no words for this song

You Only You
by Bryan Duncan

Verse: lord your love is everlasting your promises true
I have never been forsaken when my trust is in you
the world around me is a river can sweep me away
when I find I'm missing heaven I remember I'm anchored in

chorus: you only you only you I've come to put my trust in
you only you only you
And you only you only you can turn my night to day
you only you only you

Chorus: repeat

Bridge; Your grace is just enough for me my only true security
leaning on you leaning on you
your word in all it's healing power available at any hour
leaning on you leaning on you

Chorus: Repeat.

I Never Lied To You
by Bryan Duncan

Said I never loved you, said I never did
That's what I believed, before I ever said it
Never wanna see your face, or speak to you again
Cause I can live without pain, I can handle my own sin

chorus: never lied to you, never lied to you, never lied to you
until I lied to myself
never lied to you, never lied to you, never lied to you
until I lied to myself

Said there were no secrets, buried in the sand
Standing in the canyon, I dug with my own two hands
No needs to help me, alone I'm doin fine
I can live without love, I can manage my own sweet time

Chorus: repeat

bridge: is there room in your heart to forgive me
find it hard to forgive myself
for the lies that I find within me
must be harder for someone else
all I can do is tell the truth I lied to you
to hide the truth from myself

chorus: repeat
