Lord, give me the needed strength,
When I find life's hard to live:
Then do not abandon me,
Unending love to me give.
When life seems like an earthquake,
And I'm at the epicenter
Then Lord come into my life,
And let your peace there enter.
In life help me put you first,
Heaven help me to reach there,
Where with you, I'll always be,
And your presence always share.
Give me help and strength I need,
Heaven's reward help me succeed.

When I gave my heart to the Lord
Worries then started to subside;
An inner peace engulfed my soul
And I found life's joys multiplied.
I have no need of neon lights,
So many cities are full of,
But I sure need the Light of Christ,
And his never-ending love.
At times my life seems cluttered,
And life's beauty's hard to see.
Things start to come in clearer,
When I let God set me free.
During life's times of sorrow,
When I'm most in need of hope,
He gives me strength that's needed
So with life I can cope.
There are so many hearts out there,
That are waiting to be explored,
I so want to speak to them
Of my love for the Lord.

Upon these lovely roses,
My friend I give to you,
Light from my smiles shining
Enhancing each drop of dew.
They'll have so much more beauty
When light from your heart there lands.
They'll want you at a Rose Bowl float
To be seen across the land.
Emitting a sweet fragrance
Many roses there will be,
You're one of Double Delight,
And a gem of rare beauty.
Just being in your presence,
There's a feeling words can't explain,
The storms are much more welcome,
When your smiles mix with the rain.

That Orange Blossom Special,
Will be in Lakeland soon,
Making her way through orange groves,
Beneath the light of a full moon.
Like a parade with confetti,
Will be orange blossoms from the trees,
As they spin about the air,
In the presence of a breeze.
That orange blossom special,
Has a fragrance oh so sweet,
A sight that's one of splendor
That truly is elite.
There'll be two Orange Blossom specials,
Along the railroad tracks tonight.
One will clack along the tracks,
One with flowers of delight.

The most prized gems in Texas
aren't their prized blue topaz,
but the hearts found inside you
with the love that each one has.
Don't forget the Alamo
or the joys to hearts you bring,
more beautiful than flowers
blooming in a Texas spring.
San Antonio is well known
for her roses, there's no doubt;
your tears of joy help them survive
throughout a Texas drought.
Texas has its share of sun
competing with your every smile.
You're the sunshine of my life,
making each day so worthwhile.
Bring me back to Texas
where my heart longs to be;
in this land of friendly people,
there must be a place for me.

Xerox your answer to me.
Will you gaze with me tonight,
at the stars that fill the heavens,
as they shine their beauty bright?
We could count the falling stars
as they soar down from the skies.
I would find the brightest stars
dancing a jig in your eyes.
We could listen to crickets
and the frogs in symphony.
We could stroll the river's shore,
on the waves, starlight we'd see.
Xerox me your answer,
but respond to me by four.
Will you meet me at The Rock
down at the river's shore?
I'm waiting for your answer.
I now see it coming in!
You said you'll be a bit late
Before nighttime does begin.

Jesus, Here's My Teddy Bear
Jesus, here's my teddy bear,
To stay by you this night.
I hope he brings you happiness,
Much to your heart's delight.
As cattle low around you,
Christ, our newborn king,
Teddy will be silent,
As his arms around you cling.
Though I don't have frankincense,
Myrrh or gift of gold;
I bring to you my teddy bear
With the warmth a teddy holds.
So as the star of Bethlehem
O'er the stable brightly shines,
I hope on your face I see
For now my teddy's Thine.
