[X. Restraint]

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
Freedom - Calls my name
Serenity - Keeps me sane
Happiness - It dulls the pain!

Honest - To see my place
Open - To other ways
Willingness - To understand!

Justice - But do not judge
Courtesy - For others' flaws
Kindness - It's not that hard!

Self-restraint - Of tongue and pen
Inventory - My daily friend
Analysis - Let down your guard!

[Chorus 1]
Look in the mirror
What do you see?
The shattered fortress
That once bound me
Faithful ascent through darkest fires
I've found the path to take me higher

[Verse 2]
You're smart enough for me to trust
Go live your life now
Just keep these steps in your life
And you'll know how

If you're not sure, ask yourself
"Have I done to them
As I would have them do to me?"

[Chorus 2]
Look in the mirror
What's that you see?
The shattered fortress
Fly now, be free

Faithful ascent, through darkest fires
I've found the path to take me higher

[Verse 3]
I once thought it better to be right
But now I have finally seen the light
Sometimes you've got to be wrong
And learn from mistakes
I live with serenity now
Not self-righteous hate

[XI. Receive]

[Bridge]
Help me be a channel of Thy peace
That where there is hatred, I may bring love
That where there is wrong, I may bring the spirit of forgiveness
That where there is discord, I may bring harmony
That where there is error, I may bring truth
That where there is doubt, I may bring faith

Now that you can see all you have done
(That where there is despair, I may bring hope
That where there are shadows, I may bring light)
It's time to take that step into the kingdom
(That where there is sadness, I may bring joy)
All your sins will help to make you strong
(That I may seek to comfort, rather than to be comforted
That I may seek to understand rather than to be understood)
And help you break right through the prison wall
(That I may seek to love, rather than to be loved
For it is by self-forgetting that one finds
It is by forgiving that one is forgiven)

[Chorus 3]
Keep all of me
The desires that once burned me deep inside
Help me live today
And help to give me grace
To carry out your way
[Post-Chorus]
I am ready, help me be all I can be!
I am ready, help guide me and keep me free

[Instrumental Break]

[XII. Responsible]

[Chorus 4]
I am responsible when anyone, anywhere
Reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there!
I am responsible when anyone, anywhere
Reaches out for help, I want my hand to be there!

[Post-Chorus]
Whoa, oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh
Whoa, oh-oh
Whoa, whoa-oh

[Instrumental Outro]
