  1. [Lyric] The Apology (Mark Lee Townsend)

    Though we didn’t mean to say it we did nonetheless Now it’s out there for us to think of And even more disconcerting is how things were left With the tears of the one that I love Why’s it so hard to be the first one to say "I’m sorry" And I know you’ll hold on to your anger a while As our voices diminuendo But the truth is this hour we’re living...Learn More

  2. [Lyric] The Draft (Mark Lee Townsend)

    I’m on the train and on my way to Aberdeen this morning The proving grounds for what I have to prove With nothing but a suitcase and the all important letter My next 3 years are theirs and on the move I’m on the ship and shipping out to Panama much sadder The first time that I’ve ever left the states And I have no thoughts at this point of ever...Learn More

  3. [Lyric] The Hardest Job (Mark Lee Townsend)

    I’m supposed to be the strong one I’m here standing in the hot and cold To bring the wages home And I don’t really care if I’m misunderstood I’m taking all the bruises doing what I’m told To have something of our own And I’m not drinking anymore than all the other men But, I can’t say that I’m drinking any less Maybe a man has to be hardened to...Learn More

  4. [Lyric] The Possibility (Mark Lee Townsend)

    You see I’m the one With the predestination spelled out in the DNA Nothing that I’ve done would cause me to think I Would end up living this way Now I’m playing out the game I'm saddened in body but hopeful in this the same With you everything’s possible… How I see myself Has become so much different Than I would have thought it to In this world...Learn More

  5. [Lyric] The Kids (Mark Lee Townsend)

    Honey, you better sit down she said, the day has finally come A child is on the way And he will be everything we couldn't be ourselves He could be president; you know it’s true You wanted a boy, and even though we haven't got a lot Provision is made this day And he could be the one to care for us in our old age You can be sure your name will carry...Learn More

  6. [Lyric] The Church Meeting (Mark Lee Townsend)

    [Verse 1: Matt] Come to the church meeting, friends The doors are now open we welcome you in Take your place in the row, be a part of our fold Here with the old and the young We’ll pray with the other saints which we’re among We’ll dream of that glorious day When we walk streets of gold [Chorus: Mark] Here is goodness outside the madness Of a...Learn More

  7. [Lyric] The Nowhere (Mark Lee Townsend)

    I’m traveling down the road and going nowhere At least it seems that way from where I stand today If wisdom really comes from getting older It doesn’t feel like much has come my way Because I worked the same job everyday twenty years Just to see it end up bankrupt like the rest And of course there’s nothing left to show for trying And no one has...Learn More

  8. [Lyric] The Sum (Mark Lee Townsend)

    I’ll sit here in my favorite chair and relax The end of the working day finished at last And count all the blessings this man has to name one by one I’m thankful for dinner that’s still sitting well The wife that still loves me from what I can tell And maybe I’ll pitch a few horseshoes as long as there’s sun To sum it all up I am blessed as a...Learn More

  9. [Lyric] The Son (Mark Lee Townsend)

    [Verse 1] Have you seen my son? First born of my very own Before I knew myself he came to carry on my name Have you seen this boy? Hair as white as porcelain If I’m the spark than he will be the flame Some men wait forever for a miracle Or a friendly card to turn up in their hand I have seen what my miracle could be Because he’s far beyond what I...Learn More

    There is a question that burns (It hits me deeply) An answer I’m dying to learn (Will you marry me?) (Tell me please) There is a question that burns (Listen to your heart) (It hits me deeply) (Tell me please) An answer I’m dying to learn (Listen to your heart) (Will you marry me?)

  12. [Lyric] The Homecoming (Mark Lee Townsend)

    Sometimes the world puts out More than we can take The pressure tries to get inside And cause our hearts to break But isn't nice to know That when we die, our lives aren’t through The Father has a special gift Just for me and you Going home, going home All of God's children are going home We're going home, going home All of God’s children are...Learn More
