Lyrics of the NETSD, Jesus paid it all

Jesus paid it all by Elvina M. Hall, 1865 (public domain)

I hear the Savior say,

"Thy strength indeed is small;

Child of weakness, watch and pray,

Find in Me thine all in all

Jesus paid it all,

All to him I owe;

Sin had left a crimson stain,

He washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I find

Thy pow'r, and Thine alone,

Can change the leper's spots

And melt the heart of stone.

And when before the throne

I stand in Him complete,

I'll lay my trophies down,

All down at Jesus' feet.

(just a note, there are more verses, but these are the most commonly sung today)

Lyrics of the NETSD, Hold fast

Hold fast by Mercy Me

To everyone who's hurting

To those who've had enough

To all the undeserving

That should cover all of us

Please do not let go

I promise there is hope

Hold fast

Help is on the way

Hold fast

He's come to save the day

What I've learned in my life

One thing greater than my strife

Is His grasp

So hold fast

Will this season ever pass?

Can we stop this ride?

Will we see the sun at last?

Or could this be our lot in life?

Please do not let go

I promise you there's hope

You may think your all alone

And there's no way that anyone could know

What you're going through

But if you only hear one thing

Just understand that we are all the same

Searching for the truth

The truth of what we're soon to face

Unless someone comes to take our place

Is there anyone?

All we want is to be free

Free from our captivity, Lord

Here He comes

Lyrics of the NETSD, Must have done something right

Must have done something right by Relient K

We should get jerseys

Cause we make a good team

But yours would look better than mine

Cause your out of my league

And I know that it's so cliche

To tell you that everyday

I spend with you is the new best day of my life

And everyone watching us

Just turns away with disgust

This jealousy

They can see that we've got it going on

I can not wait for a new improved way

To let you know you're more to me than what I know how to say

You're ok with the way this is going to be

Cause this is going to be the best thing we've ever seen

If anyone could make me a better person, you could

All I gotta say is I must have done something good

You came along one day and you rearranged my life

All I gotta say is I must have done something right

I must have done something right

Maybe I'm just lucky

Cause it's hard to believe

That somebody like you'd end up with someone like me

And I know that it's so cliche

To talk to you this way

But I'll push all my inhibitions aside

It's so very obvious

To everyone watching us

That we have got something real good going on

I can not wait for a new improved way

To let you know you're more than I know how to say

You're ok with the way this is going to be

Cause this is going to be the best thing we've ever seen

Lyrics of the NETSD, Gone

Gone by Switchfoot

She told him she'd rather fix her makeup

Than try and fix what's going on

But the problem keeps on calling

Even with the cellphone gone

She told him that she believes in living

Bigger than she's living now

But her world keeps spinning backwards

And upsidedown

Don't say so long, and throw yourself wrong

Don't spend today away

Cuz today will soon be

Gone, like yesterday is gone,

Like history is

Gone, just trying to prove me wrong

And pretend like you're immortal

She said he said live like no tomorrow

Every day we borrow

Brings us one step closer to the edge

Where's your treasure, where's your hope

If you get the world and lose your soul

She pretends like she pretends she's immortal

Don't say so long

You're not that far gone

This could be your big chance to makeup

Today will soon be

Gone, like yesterday is gone,

Like history is gone,

The world keeps spinning on,

Your going going gone,

Like summer break is gone.

Like saturday is gone

Just try and prove me wrong

You pretend like your immortal

We are not infinite

We are not permanent

Nothing is immediate

We're so confident

In our accomplishments

Look at our decadence

Gone, like Frank Sinatra

Like Elvis and his mom

Like Al Pacino's cash nothing lasts in this life

My highschool dreams are gone

My childhood sweets are gone

Life is a day that doesn't last long

Life is more than money

Time was never money

Time was never cash,

Life is still more than girls

Life is more than hundred dollar bills

And roto-tom fills

Life's more than fame and rock and roll and thrills

All the riches of kings

End up in wills we got information in the information age

But do we know what life is

Outside of our convenient Lexus cages

She said he said live like no tomorrow

Every moment that we borrow

Brings us closer to the God who's not short on cash

Hey Bono I'm glad you asked

Life is still worth living, life is still worth living

Lyrics of the NETSD, Hey Jude

Hey Jude by The Beatles

Hey Jude, don't make it bad.

Take a sad song and make it better.

Remember to let her into your heart, 

Then you can start to make it better.

Hey Jude, don't be afraid.

You were made to go out and get her.

The minute you let her under your skin,

Then you will begin to make it better.

And anytime you feel the pain, hey Jude, refrain,

Don't carry the world upon your shoulders.

For well you know that its a fool who plays it cool

By making his world a little colder.

Hey Jude, don't let me down.

You have found her, now go and get her.

Remember to let her into your heart,

Then you can start to make it better.

So let it out and let it in, hey Jude, begin,

You're waiting for someone to preform with.

And don't you know that it's just you, hey Jude, you'll do,

The movement you need is on your shoulder.

Lyrics of the NETSD, Daylight

Daylight by Remedy Drive

Has everything you've counted on

Left you right here with no warning

Have your dreams become invisible

Wait with me dear till the morning

Light will make the night burnout

Hold on

Daylight is coming

To break the dawn

Daylight is coming

The brightest stars are falling down

Is hope lost in the black skies

The darkness must precede the dawn

Wait with me here till the sunrise

Wait, your night will soon fade out

Hold on

Daylight is coming

To break the dawn

Daylight is coming

Daylight is coming

Lyrics of the nothing else to say day, A Beautiful Collision

I think I'm going to shorten that to NETSD.

Basically, instead of every wednesday having Lyrics of the Week, I am going to have lyrics of "whenever I can't think of anything better to say about my life that I haven't already said".

Today is that day.

With that, I proudly present Lyrics of the NETSD.  Today's song is A Beautiful Collision, by David Crowder.

A Beautiful Collision

The heart breaking makes a sound

I never knew could be

So beautiful and loud

Fury filled and we collide

So courageous until now

Fumbling and scared

So afraid You'll find me out,

Alone here with my doubt

Here it comes, a beautiful collision

Is happening now.

There seems no end to where You begin and there I am now

You and I collide

Something circling inside,

Spaciously you fly

Infinite and wide,

Like the moon and sky

Collide

Here it comes, a beautiful collision

Is happening now.

There seems no end to where you begin and there I am now

You and I, collide

Just a personal note on this song.  I used it in my Salutatorian speech, and I thought it was awesome, mostly, cause it was the shortest speech that night.  Mwahaha.  And I speak pretty fast when on stage.  Not exactly a comfort zone.
