Re-Purposed +
Re-Positioned

SONGS OF LIFE, LOVE AND HOPE

Re-Purposed + Re-Positioned

Lyrics: Val Gay

Music: Val Gay + Nasya Gay

VERSE

I thought I’d had felt all I could feel;

That my heart had been cracked,

Shattered and scattered,

Never to be reassembled,

Polished or re-purposed.

 

PRE-CHORUS

I was ready to remain alone,

And I prayed that God would

Show me how to be at home - 

Wherever I was - 

I learned how to be free,

Be truly me,

So I was surprised

When I met you

 

BRIDGE

“Queen of My Soul” that’s what you called me... “Queen of My Soul” that’s what you called me... 

 

I wanna transpose your words into reality.... 

And bring you here to me... 

 

“Queen of My Soul” that’s what you called me... “Queen of My Soul” that’s what you called me... 

 

You can transpose your words into reality, 

And learn to be My King.

 

CHORUS

Then perhaps my heart that was cracked,

Shattered and scattered,

Can be assembled,

Polished and re-purposed

To love

With You.

I Have Faith

Lyrics + Music:Val Gay

VERSE

There are times when I feel alone

And I’m confused by all that’s going on

But I remember what You said,

That You love me and You care,

So tho’ I’m scared,

I know you are right there 

 

CHORUS

I have faith

That can move mountains

Even tho’

I cannot see

Jesus said,

If you have faith as a grain of a mustard seed,

That means you really believe,

You can do anything.

 

(But first) Seek first the kingdom of God and His Righteousness

You can do anything!

All things are possible to them who believe

You can do anything!

You must be called, according to His Purpose!

You can do anything!

The Invitation

Lyrics + Music: Val Gay

VERSE 1 

We invite you to meet a man named Jesus 

We invite you to come, just now 

​

REFRAIN 

No matter who you are, no matter what you’ve done, 

He’s waiting, He loves you, just come. 

​

VERSE 2 

Perhaps you’ve gone away from Jesus, 

Perhaps you’ve gone astray and fallen down, 

​

REFRAIN 

No matter where you are, no matter what you’ve done, 

He’s waiting, He loves you, just come. 

​

CHORUS 

Come to Jesus just now 

Come to Jesus just now 

​

REFRAIN 

No matter who you are, no matter what you’ve done, 

He’s waiting, He loves you, just come.

The Way You Love Me

Lyrics: Florence Adrien Graham
Music: Florence Adrien Graham + Val Gay

VERSE 1  

Some people wait a lifetime to be loved 

The way you love me 

Spending endless days in search of arms 

To hold them through the night. 

Of hands to soothe away the sorrow,  

Help them face the next tomorrow 

Words to promise them that, someday, 

Everything will be alright. 

​

CHORUS 

The way you love me is beyond 

My wildest dreams. 

Your love is deeper than 

My eyes have ever seen. 

And though I don’t deserve to be the one, 

You chose me, 

To love the way, you love me 

​

VERSE 2 

Some people spend their lives 

And never know just what they’re missing. 

Empty shells and broken hearts 

In search of something to believe 

When they ask me, what’s so special in my life? 

What’s so terrific? 

What I choose to simply say is  

What your love’s done in me 

​

CHORUS 

The way you love me is beyond 

My wildest dreams. 

Your love is deeper than 

My eyes have ever seen. 

And though I don’t deserve to be the one, 

You chose me, 

To love the way, you love me

Broken Wings

Lyrics: Florence Adrien Graham Music: Florence Adrien Graham + Val Gay

VERSE 1

He said, “please believe me 

These words are sincere. 

You prayed for a white knight To protect you from fear. 

But it seems like you didn’t get What you prayed for, 

‘cause all you got was this mere man On a broken-down horse.” 

​

VERSE 2 

Your prayers weren’t answered, This isn’t the life that you wanted Just being my wife, 

Yet each day you look at me 

Like your dreams have come true And your prayers have been answered Just by me loving you. 

​

CHORUS 

I’ve seen you fix broken wings, While you kissed a scraped knee And still find time to help out Old friends in need 

You work until twilight 

And at Dawn you rise 

With nothing but patience  

And love in your eyes. 

​

BRIDGE 

I love you so much more 

Than words can ever say 

And I thank God He’s blessed me With you 

Every day! 

​

CHORUS 2 

I’ll help you fix broken wings, While you kiss the scraped knees And I’ll find time to help out Old friends in need 

I’ll work until twilight 

With you by my side 

I’ll always look at you 

With love in my eyes.

I'm Here

Lyrics: Florence Adrien Graham Music: Florence Adrien Graham + Val Gay

VERSE 1 

I always dreamed that this would happen 

I would make it to this point 

I’d be standing in this place 

If I could stay and run the race 

I would finally make it home 

But one day I started wondering What if my dreams were fooling me How could I ever make it out – ever  overcome these doubts? 

And would I make it on my own? 

​

CHORUS 

Well, I’m here; I’m strong and for the first  time in my life I’m right where I belong And I feel like it's a dream, but I know  what I feel is real 

Because I’m here right now… I’m here 

​

VERSE 2 

Now this is not my happy ending It’s not where my story ends 

This is where my journey starts 

Because I know deep in my heart That I have only just begun

 

CHORUS 2 

Well, I’m here, tonight, and it feels so  good to know 

I finally got it right 

So don’t tell me it’s a dream 

I know that this is real  

Because I’m here right now, 

I’m here 

​

BRIDGE 

I am here to claim a prize 

To seize this moment in my life 

This dream is mine 

​

CHORUS 3 

I’m here, I’m strong and for the first time  in my life 

I’m right where I belong 

And tho it feels like it’s a dream I know what I feel is real 

Because I’m here right now 

I’m here!

Can We Change The World?

Lyrics: Florence Adrien Graham Music: Florence Adrien Graham + Val Gay

VERSE 1 

Can We change the world? 

For our children and their future? 

Can We change the world? 

Show them there’s a better way? 

​

CHORUS 

If we change the world, then when we leave it to our children, there’s a chance they’ll see a brighter day. 

​

VERSE 2 

Can We change the world? 

Make our promises and keep them? 

Can We change the world? 

Can they believe in what we say? 

​

CHORUS 

If we change the world,  

Then when we leave it to our children,  

There’s a chance they’ll see a brighter day. 

​

BRIDGE 

We can change the world if we put our heads together, 

With our hearts and our voices, 

If we stay true to what we say 

Then we can make this world a better place, 

​

CHORUS 2

So when we leave it to our children, 

There’s a chance they’ll see  

A brighter day. 

Can We change the world?
