Worries Never Win
Verse 1:
Worries have never solved
The things that ache my heart.
Pacing the midnight floors,
Only pulled me apart.
Tried to fix it all alone—
But I was sinking fast.
Then I heard a still, small voice:

Lyrics:
Another morning
Such sorry days

That’s All I Ask
Chorus:
I can’t trade Your presence for silver or gold—
No treasure on Earth can carry my soul.

That’s all I ask, that’s all I need.
Take the world, but never this flame, O Holy…

Verse 1:

The empty rush, the distant calls…

When death came for me, You stood in my place.
Now I have life in You…

Fled and never turned—then I knew You’re the Light.
You paid the price for my pride,
And for the…
