Verse Oh have you ever Stood on the shoreline And looked on as waves roll back to the sea? And are your years like Those lonely waters? Rolling back into a faint history It's not too late to Divert the waters 'cause there's only so much time in the world Bridge So yet, what is your life? You are like a mist that's here and gone You can make a difference, and so now go forth with the grace of God Verse Don't let your life be So sadly wasted 'cause there's only so much time in the world You won't be treasured By your possessions And there's only so much time in the world There's only one life To make things matter Yet there's only so much time in the world Open the window See that you're needed And there's only so much time in the world Break Verse The world is hurting So make it better But there's only so much time in the world So set your eyes on The road to heaven 'cause there's only so much time in the world Earthly belongings Will one day perish 'cause there's only so much time in the world Look to the God who Brings peace eternal 'cause there's only so much time in the world

Verse 1 Oh Joshua, Look at the city of might For its walls Reach to the sky And its bricks Are thick for miles Son of Nun, The Lord Will help to see you through This Jericho stands before the people of God But you're led By the Captain of the armies of Mighty God Trust in Him Be strong And see the walls fall down Bridge Let not your heart grow faint He will lead you to His land Stretch out your hands to Him He will quench your thirsty soul Chorus March 'round the city Shout to the heavens Fall down Jericho You're going to fall down Jericho Verse 2 Now Israel The land of promise is yours Not because Of your own might Or the strength Within your hearts But the pow'r Of God (To) make walls come tumbling down Break Bring it down Bring it down Bring it down (repeat) Jericho was a fortified city, and stood as an obstacle in Israel's way to the promised land. In like manner, every believer has a fortified city of sin in their hearts, that stands in the way of their sanctification. But yet neither Jericho nor sin are obstacles to the power of God God had promised Joshua that the mighty city would be rent asunder by his army. So too does the Lord promise to demolish the dwellings of sin in our lives, for He says that "those who belong to Christ Jesus have crucified the flesh with its passions and desires" So many times, and with so many of the battles one may face, the odds will seem impossible. But as it was with Israel, so shall it be with every believer, that those things that are impossible for man, are possible with God. The Lord was with Josua - so shall He be with you. Verse 3 Believing one, Faced with a fortress of sin Do its walls Reach to the sky? Are its bricks So thick for miles? Child of God The Lord Will help to see you through This dark city Stands in the way of your path If you hold To His promise And proceed By way of faith Rest assured The Lamb Will bring you victory Bridge Let not your heart grow faint He will lead you to His land Stretch out your hands to Him He will quench your thirsty soul Chorus March 'round the city Shout to the heavens Fall down Jericho You're going to fall down Jericho Bridge Deliver me from my sin Leading me to your refuge Walking through the midst of strife Deliver me by your hand Chorus March 'round the city Shout to the heavens Fall down Jericho You're going to fall down Jericho

You said You said You would follow him until no one was left and all he had was His friend His friend Who sought To betray him that night with A kiss A kiss Not the greeting of a friend but yet a trap pulling him towards His death His death much like young Joseph, sold by (his) brothers INTERLUDE Sold him Sold him Handed him over to the Men of the law Yet for a scrap of Silver Silver Though you Held onto our money Daily Daily With your brethren and he, you Healed the sick And drove out the Devils Devils (But) you let The Devil draw you That night ============================================ It is not My enemy, who shames me But a friend, brother (You) raised your hands Against those who Trusted you Lifting up Your heel (Your speech was smoother than) Rich butter (But) your heart was war And your words Although soft (Were) drawn swords

The Return 06:09
Verse When will the day arrive when the trumpets blare and the seals are poured and you return when will the night descend and the moon turn red when the cries are heard through long dark nights CHORUS I have heard the legends about you Freeing your own Saving your kin I have heard the rumours of the wars Nations in strife Famine all about Will you crush the serpent underfoot Lion of Jude Star of the dawn Now I feel the days are drawing near Are these strange words The truth? Verse When will the beast arise from the ocean's depths dominating all throughout the earth will he impose his mark and rule all the saints will his false prophet deceive the world CHORUS I have heard the legends about you Freeing your own Saving your kin I have heard the rumours of the wars Nations in strife Famine about Will you crush the serpent underfoot Lion of Jude Star of the dawn Now I feel the days are drawing near Are these strange words The truth? INTERLUDE verse And I awoke this day with a violent start for the walls they shook to sounds of war lifting my eyes upward I see angels fly holding seven plagues through smoke-filled skies all through the earth beneath I feel mighty quakes and the sun burns hot while cities fall the anointed one is near seated on a horse will he accept me now that he's returned? CHORUS I have heard the legends about you Freeing your own Saving your kin I have heard the rumours of the wars Nations in strife Famine all about Will you crush the serpent underfoot Lion of Jude Star of the dawn Now I feel the days are drawing near Are these strange words The truth?

For a long time I have waited for the sun to shine And for years on end my eyes would not behold the dawn But now my eyes have raised And left the dark behind The horizon beckons with a gleam I see the city of eternal light In the days that followed, my feet fled for home The clouds of darkness gave way to rays of sun And now the light of God Illuminates my path I will see the glory of the Lamb In the city of eternal light It's been said the streets are paved with shining gold And the walls are built on the most flawless gems But the greatest rewards Will have no earthly price A new life that's been blessed with lasting peace In the city of eternal light The path is narrow and restricted With a temptation to turn and walk back Your every footstep may be lonely Such are the trials of faith The world will offer its distractions Its endless ways to divert attention Don't lose your way throughout the darkness Then eternally lost The Law will try to offer comfort It will yet magnify all your good deeds Just like the yeast inside the leaven Oh, how pride makes a fall But the reward goes to the runner in such a way as not without an aim May you persist toward the city Reach the city of light Now the gates have opened and the path departs And the congregation raises their voice in joy For an age of love Has come upon us now Yes, the days of weeping are no more In the city of eternal light

Verse 1: Oh I look to Him who was raised Dead and buried and for my sake Also dying to my old sin Buried underwater with Him So I die To all my sins They fall away And the law Will no longer shame me Chorus: Dyin' Buried Buried underwater with Him Livin' Risin' Walking in the newness of life Verse 2: Resurrected one with the Son Brought up by the Father's glory Looking to the helping Spirit Walking in the newness of life So I walk In newer life Not for myself And so, Lord Lift and sanctify me Chorus: Dyin' Buried Buried underwater with Him Livin' Risin' Walking in the newness of life Verse 3: Have you taken up your own cross? Are you walking by the Spirit? Like ancient words said to Philip What stops me from being baptized? So I walk In newer life Not for myself And so, Lord Lift and sanctify me Chorus: Dyin' Buried Buried underwater with Him Livin' Risin' Walking in the newness of life Dyin' Buried Buried underwater with Him Livin' Risin' Walking in the newness of life

Fear Not 04:10
When despair takes over me My heart sinks just like a weight All my steps feel miles apart What does His Word say to me? Fear Not I will come and bolster you Stand Up Let your fear be cast out Put your trust in (the) Rock of Ages And Yet Courage will fill your heart When my feet march off to war Will an arrow pierce my heart? If I march the field alone, Will my legs give up their strength? Fear Not I will come and bolster you Stand Up Let your fear be cast out Put your trust in (the) Rock of Ages And Yet Courage will fill your heart (Guitar solo) Now my days are spent in peace Spreading word to all who fear Raising up their hearts and minds With these words from Holy Writ Fear Not I will come and bolster you Stand Up Let your fear be cast out Put your trust in (the) Rock of Ages And Yet Courage will fill your heart

Verse Now this world is full of people who chase wealth Putting faith in things that are bought And soon forgotten Many people fill their lives with worldly goods Yet their souls feel ever empty And unfulfilled Chorus Do your things fulfill your life? Do your valuables bring worth? All the stuff that's in the world Will never be able to save You from the void Verse Have you seen them spending themselves into debt? Hoarding things that cannot love them or Bring true peace There's a better kind of treasure within reach There are riches that will never fade Or see rust Chorus Do your things fulfill your life? Do your valuables bring worth? All the stuff that's in the world Will never be able to save You from the void Bridge Na, na, na na na na Truth will set you free Na, na, na na na na You cannot buy true peace Verse In the kingdom of the Saviour, you'll be rich Not with gems or money, but love And mercy divine Chorus Only God can set you free From the hunger for new things Earthly treasures cannot match The height and depth and breadth of love That's found in Him

Verse So many souls in darkness So lonely and unhappy All thinking Life has no point And no truth But think just for a moment That maybe you have purpose And that the Giver of life Calls to you Chorus Only the Spirit Liberates your chained heart Drives out the darkness Sets you free Lost child Will you Turn to Jesus In all things Lies a purpose so Call out to the Spirit of Mercy Then will you see the Universe with new eyes See the creation, (that) It is good Only the Spirit Demonstrates true kindness Goes to the desert (to) Quench your soul Read from God's Word In it, True life So don't yet Give up hope For all of your burdens (can) be Lifted Verse You look upon the world Unhappy with the picture Asking your Self if there's Justice to be had But ask yourself this question Where does this justice come from? Can you create it on a whim? How about sin? Chorus Only the Spirit Liberates your chained heart Drives out the darkness Sets you free Lost child Will you Turn to Jesus In all things Lies a purpose so Call out to the Spirit of Mercy Then will you see the Universe with new eyes See the creation, (that) It is good Only the Spirit Demonstrates true kindness Goes to the desert (to) Quench your soul Read from God's Word In it, True life So don't yet Give up hope For all of your burdens (can) be Lifted Verse It's true the world is poisoned But only one can cleanse it The One who Has life-giving water From His heart The darkness has no power To the bright star of the morning Think you this day Who you'll serve On this earth

Dissolve 05:54
Life's Tears Seem to be so distant now They've dissolved in the sea Of time Now In New Jerusalem we live And our doubts Dissolved away By love We sometimes cried alone in the dark, Why must we suffer so? So long the bleakness seemed overwhelming But Yet Light shone so brightly at His return No shadows could remain We Need Not the light of sun or moon For His glory makes The dark Dissolve We've Been Fashioned like unto the Son Our corruption Ever gone Dissolved

about

Led By The Shepherd is a Toronto-based Christian band, spearheaded by Vaughn Shideler, the composer of the band's music. Lyrically, we attempt to present many of the teachings and imagery of the Bible into song form. Musically, we wish to create compelling melodies and deep grooves that hook the listener from the get-go. We believe that the apostle Paul said it best: "...be filled with the Spirit, addressing one another in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing and making melody to the Lord with your heart, giving thanks always and for everything to God the Father in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, submitting to one another out of reverence for Christ." (Ephesians 5:18-21, ESV)
