One Out of One

Odds are increasing never ceasing
Bodies in motion, weapons are drawn
Step to the measure, what's your pleasure?
Bask in the moment til it is gone
Stand in succession, make confession
Open the shackles, then fly away
Proven solution, absolution
Older and bolder, new every day
Love's not emotion, magic potion
Only the life eternal is all
You're not the only fish in the ocean
Swimming against the tide of the fall
CHORUS
The exceptions the rule, til it finds you the fool
And you're fiddling while Rome burns away
Impure in the fire, you're a voice in the choir
Of the millions lamenting the day
(You're one out of one)
One who is waiting, still creating
Held in the Heavens, seeking the end
Love's not emotion, new devotion
On to the life eternal ascend

Everyone's Home
05:22
|

It's welcoming, a glowing fire, fulfilling lives within
I see the banners held aloft, proclaiming what has been
I've come on Mercy's train to find this place, there is no fear
I came accepting, and I find
Everyone's Home, they're all home
The Journey's done, the Course is run, the mountaintop is real
The world that I was sent to reach, at last begins to heal
The Ancients gave their lives to spread the word, I pray it's heard
I came believing, and I find
Everyone's Home, they've come home
A requiem rings out so true, and every word is pure
The Testament is carved in stone, forever to assure
And those who honor life, will still remain, and feel no pain
For those who know You will be known
And Everyone's Home, I am home
And Everyone's Home, I am home

Above This Night
05:01
|
|||
|
I'm sleeping, it's into the deep with no dreaming, I'm not dreaming
I'm breathing, the air is so pure its reviving
Perceiving reliving resolving surviving, new beginning
I'm waking, this gift I've received not deserving, I am living
Chorus:
Fill me with life and light
Lift me above this night
I'm moving, I'm thinking so clearly, discerning, I am healing
I'm feeling, the truths that I know I'm remembering
I'm walking, toward the high goal, I'm exploring, understanding
I'm talking, the sounds that I hear are expressing
Chorus:
Touch me at your delight
Shining with fire, ignite
I'm playing, expressive excitable, feeling
Creating, I'm so full of praise there's no offering, but my singing
I'm waking, this gift I've received not deserving
Chorus:
Fill me with life and light
Lift me above this night
Touch me at your delight
Shining with fire

Song Du' Jour
05:40

Another morning comes
Another chance to get it right
Another evening falls
Looks like I lost another fight
Younger but older, my fire's getting colder each day
Heart keeps on beating as life is retreating....
I keep slipping even as I'm climbing
I keep falling even as I rise
Reaching upward am I moving downward
all my wisdom makes me so unwise
Just like a baby, can't see an end to my days
I keep pretending but, cheating the piper never pays
Younger but older, my fire's getting colder each day
Heart keeps on beating as life is retreating....
I keep slipping even as I'm climbing
I keep falling even as I rise
Reaching upward am I moving downward
all my wisdom cuts me down to size
Give me a ticket to - a place where I'm not in control
I need a hand to hold, the other half to make me whole
Out there it's somewhere, when I find my way there, I'll know
Heart keeps on beating but I’m not retreating....
I’m tired of slipping even as I'm climbing
No more falling every time I rise
Looking downward I am moving upward
Out there it's somewhere, when I find my way there, I'll know, I’ll know

Fire in the Boiler
03:10
|

It’s a mean wicked season and we’ve all got a reason just to hit the road
But the highways are closin’, the best seats are chosen
And the bags are stowed
There’s a fire in the boiler and she’s gonna blow
We’ve all got a ticket to the midnight show
So take your place and wait for mercy in the night
I hope you got your belt on tight…
Now you better batten down the hatches, and tighten all the latches
Cause’ they’re shakin’ loose
It’s crackin’ lightning and thunder from Alaska to Down Under
They’re all lightin’ the fuse
You’re runnin’ hard for cover but it’s hard to get
It’s gonna be a wild ride you’ll never forget
So take your place and hope for mercy in the night
I hope you got your belt on tight…
(You ride tonight, You ride tonight)
You're standing in the fading light
It could be you who ride tonight
I hope you got your belt on tight
It’s a high roller coaster and there won’t be a boaster when it hits the fall
There’s one thrill a minute and the whole shebang is in it
Til’ we get the call
Cause’ there’s a fire in the boiler and she’s gonna blow
We’ve all got a ticket to the midnight show
So take your place and wait for mercy in the night
I hope you got your belt on tight…

The Days We Live
04:54
|
|||
|
Time, to remember all the days that we had time,
And the moments are still here as they pass by
This River of Time
Time to reflect on every chance that we must take
In the years that we are living like a dream
I don't want to wake
Chorus:
So Love - it comes when you're least prepared
And all of the things you thought you knew, and never shared
And Love - it's only the days we live
Each one's a treasury of all we have to give
And never take back
Now, I believe in every possible somehow
Could it be that we would ever be just one
More moment of Time
Time, there will never be enough to take it in
I would give up where I am for where I've been
If only for you

Block and Tackle Blues
04:32

Well, I woke up this mornin’ and I was sure I was dead
til’ I soon realized I was only in bed
come on now, and haul in the line
now you don’ catch a fish if ya ain’t got no bait
and you better git you some before it’s too late
well come on, and haul in the line
If you sit on the bank and just listen to the band
you better have somebody close at hand
that can pull you back, when the levee break
you’re gonna get thirsty when the heat starts to fry
and the hot summer sun is shinin’ high
so don’t come to me, when it all starts to shake
How many times now have I got to say,
whyon’chou’ make up your mind while it’s still today
come on, and haul in the line
You got a whole lot to lose and even more to gain
for tidbit o pleasure and a world of pain
so, wake up, and haul in the line
Now you’re all tangled up like a bug in a net
and the swatter’s gonna get you cause you ain’t there yet
and you’re lookin’ for a safe place where you can still have your fun
You don’t do your laundry and you don’t do your job
you’d rather be eatin’ that corn on the cob
and just singin’, like a son of a gun
I been singin this song for an awful long time
and I don’t mind talkin’ while we’re on my dime
but come on now, and haul in the line
there’s a queue formin’ up on the left and the right
and brother it’s a long one - it’s clean outa sight
so come on, and haul in the line
Now I sure hate to see somethin’ fine go to waste
you got a backwater budget and champagne taste
there’s money in the bank til the bank won’t open it’s doors
I been watchin’ you since you was too small to squeak
and I’ll keep on watchin’ til I’m an old antique
so come on now please, son won’t you haul in the line

When You Walk
05:24
|
|||
|
It’s a lonely winding road that we must travel on
And the fortresses we build are dark and tall
I have seen another way to live without them
Take me there, take me to that quiet place again
I have journeyed far and wide to find Jerusalem
But that city in the sky is yet to come
And the darkness sometimes closes in around me
Please be near, if I could only hear your voice again
Chorus:
When You Walk, Walk with me
Be my calm, in a stormy sea
Lift me up, each time I fall
Take my dreams, take my all
Now the clamor of the world is growing bolder
and it pulls upon my heart as if to say
There is nothing more than what you see around you
I long to see, that face that eyes have never seen before
Chorus:
When You Walk, Won't you walk with me
Be my calm, in a stormy sea
Lift me up, When I fall down
Take my life, for your crown
for your crown
Take my life, for your crown

Find Me In These Fields [remastered & re-imagined]
by Phil Keaggy - Deluxe Studio vocal albums
supported by 28 fans who also own “Q.A.R.”
"Find Me in These Fields" was one of Phil's releases where I sensed he was free to be himself, and that came on strong in every tune. As a guitar player I was inspired, and as a father with a young son "Gentle & Strong" tugged every heart string.
