Song Lyrics!

Hello and Happy March 1! 🙂

I have been working on a new album called Cloud of Witnesses since last year (set to be released in stages from Spring to Summer 2022!).

In the meantime, a friend requested I share the lyrics of my current songs (2018-2021), so here they are in poem form…with all of the Scripture references.

I pray that these words spark thoughts of God in your mind, encourage your heart, and speak life to your spirit if it’s weary.

Seasons (from the Seasons EP)

Words and Music by Amanda Rassamni

Ecclesiastes 3

To everything there is a season

A time for peace, a time for love

For every purpose under heaven

It’s all been given by God above

And that which is has already passed

There’s nothing to fear because

We’re coming out of this one fast

We’re accelerating seasons

We won’t be heartbroken for long

Feel that peace, hear that laughing

Get up and start dancing

For time is moving along

This is life’s song

To everything there is a season

A time to tear, a time to sew

That old garment you’ve been wearing

Don’t let it pull you down anymore

For that which is has already passed

There’s nothing to fear because

We’re coming out of this one fast

We’re accelerating seasons

We won’t be heartbroken for long

Feel that peace, hear that laughing

Get up and start dancing

For time is moving along

This is life’s song

Oh, this is life’s song

This is life’s song

Hope Deferred (from the Seasons EP)

Words and Music by Amanda Rassamni

Proverbs 13:12, Job 1:21-22, Psalm 84:11-12

I have been down on my knees, with desperate pleas

Why is this happening?

I know what it looks like to wait, day after day

When nothing has changed

But You, You are not a God who withholds good from me,

And I, I cannot accuse You of wrongdoing

Oh, how precious are the seasons that I choose to cling to You

Cause You’re doing more than I imagined You would do

Hope deferred makes the heart sick

But how I trust You, oh how I trust You, my Father

Desire fulfilled is a tree of life, but I know

Only You can satisfy

Cause You, You are not a God who withholds good from me,

And I, I cannot accuse You of wrongdoing

Oh, how precious are the seasons that I choose to cling to You

Cause You’re doing more than I imagined You would do

Shall we not accept from the Lord, good and trouble?

Shall we not accept from the Lord every season of the soul?

Shall we not accept from the hand of God the comfort that He brings

When He knows we’re suffering?

He knows we’re suffering

Only You can satisfy

Only You can satisfy

Only You can satisfy

Just to Be With You (from the Seasons EP)

Words and Music by Amanda Rassamni

John 6:67-69, Psalm 84:10

As I cling steadfastly to You

Every fear and doubt just slips away

They slip away

And I believe You when You say

The seasons I can see are temporary

You are eternity

Oh Lord, to whom else would I go?

I want to be with You, just to be with You

For You are life, You are all I need

And You have revealed Yourself

So I will give everything, just to be with You

Cause You, You know me

You, You see right through my soul

You see right through my soul

You, You set me free, to walk in liberty

And You have my loyalty

Cause one day with You is better

Than all the days I’ve spent on earth

And You’re coming to take me home

Oh Lord, to whom else would I go?

I want to be with You, just to be with You

For You are life, You are all I need

And You have revealed Yourself

So I will give everything, just to be with You

You are My King (from the Seasons EP)

Words and Music by Amanda Rassamni

Psalm 16

Many times I wait

I wait for You to pull me through

The seasons I don’t understand Your will

I easily get so caught up with myself

But You’re faithful every time

You remind me of my soul’s delight

And You, don’t see me as a failure

So I lift up my hands and give thanks

And I will sing, You are my King, You are my King

I will sing, You are my King, You are my King

There’s no one beside You

You’re worthy of praise

God, You have redeemed me, and all of my days

Your love is infinite, You love me always

And I will sing, You are my King

I have no good beside or beyond You

You are my portion, You are my breakthrough

So all I am is all about You

King of the Universe

I have no good beside or beyond You

You are my portion, You are my breakthrough

So all I am is all about You

King of the Universe

I will sing, You are my King, You are my King

There’s no one beside You

You’re worthy of praise

God, You have redeemed me, and all of my days

Your love is infinite, You love me always

So I will sing, You are my King

Nothing is Silent

Words and Music by Amanda Rassamni

Psalm 94:9-11

Does He who made the eye, will He not see?

Does He who made the ear, will He not hear?

Do you think that He who opened heaven just to come and be one with you doesn’t love to

listen to you when you call?

Does He who made the mind, does He not know?

Does He who made the heart, does He not feel sorrow?

Do you think the One who knows your thoughts before they’re even on your lips doesn’t care?

All my life You’ve shown my prayers don’t hit the ceiling    

So I know You are always listening

Dare I think for a second the prayer I pray in faith is not enough

Nothing is silent, nothing is hidden

Nothing is ignored, nothing’s unimportant

Everything I think about, everything that I say goes into Your ears,

You remember every word I pray

Everything moves You, everything I feel inside, You do not despise

You’re outside of time and space and the universe, but You care

You’re outside of time and space and the universe, but You’re here

Glory of God (Justin’s Song)

Words and Music by Amanda Rassamni

John 11, Isaiah 60:1

I know You hear me, I know You always hear me

But I know You do all things for Your glory

You are Life, and You are Resurrection

And though we may die, we will live in You

You are the One who lifts up my head,

I’ll see Your glory again, I’ll see Your glory again

I know You hear me, I know You always hear me

But I know You do all things for Your glory

You are Life, and You are Resurrection

And though we may die, we will live in You

You are the One who lifts up my head,

I’ll see Your glory again, I’ll see Your glory again

Arise and shine for Your light has come

And the glory of God has risen on you

And the glory of God has risen on you

Oh His resurrection life has risen on you

Oh the glory of God has risen on you

God bless you. And mark your calendars for March 21 for the first special release of part of the Cloud of Witnesses album! 🙂
