What can take a dying man
And raise him up to life again?
What can heal the wounded soul?
What can make us white as snow?
What can fill the emptiness?
What can mend our brokenness? Brokenness

Mighty, awesome, wonderful
Is the holy cross
Where the lamb lay down His life
To lift us from the fall
Mighty is the power of the cross

And what restores our faith in God?
What reveals the Father's love?
What can lead the wayward home?
What can melt a heart of stone?
What can free the guilty ones?
What can save and overcome? Overcome

Mighty, awesome, wonderful
Is the holy cross
Where the lamb lay down His life
To lift us from the fall
Mighty is the power of the cross

It's a miracle to me
It's a miracle to me
And it's still a mystery
And it's still a mystery

It's a miracle to me
The power of God
Those who believe

Mighty, awesome, wonderful
Is the holy cross
Where the lamb lay down His life
To lift us from the fall

Oh, and mighty, awesome, wonderful
Is the holy cross
Where the lamb lay down His life
To lift us from the fall
Mighty is the power of
Mighty is the power of
Mighty is the power of the cross

Thank you for the cross
Thank you for the cross
I love the cross
We love the cross (ooh)
Yeah, so powerful, oh yeah

What can take a dying man (thank you Jesus)
And raise him up to life again? (Thank you Jesus)
Worship You, Jesus (wonderful cross)
By your wounds we are healed
By your wounds we are saved

Mighty is the power of the cross (mighty is the power of the cross)
Mighty is the power of the cross (mighty is the power of the cross)
Thank you Jesus
For the holy cross
Oh

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
