There's been some times in my own past,
   where broken's not the word;
Some times in days and years gone by,
    where living seemed absurd.

I've fallen down, yes down so low,
    I've been down to my knees;
The lowest point that one could bear,
    when dying would bring peace.

Now coming back ten fold as strong,
   I finally found my way;
To beat the odds, stand up again,
   grow stronger day by day.

So don't you once give up on me,
   don't dare to count me out;
To stand so tall above the rest,
   to shatter any doubt!

Stay by my side to see me grow,
    you better hold on tight;
Its gonna be a wild ride,
    to see me win this fight!

"Ever-loving Arms"

God came to earth a mortal man,
   to Mary in a stall;
Then died to stand beside us when
   we're facing judgements call.

Since very day He came to earth,
   to pay the final cost;
The Angels shout in Heaven
  when each sinner finds the cross.

No He didn't have to come,
   but He came to us by choice;
Then He hung and died to listen for
  each broken sinner's voice.

Yes He's here beside you now,
   with true love you can't deny;
Gives the answer you are seeking,
   when you question when or why.

You will find Him when you seek Him,
   yes, He'll keep you safe from harm;
And you'll always find such shelter
   in His ever-loving arms!

"Feeling of Love"

So now I've got this feeling that,
   I'm so much more than free;
It's almost like there's something now
   that's got a grip on me!

It makes me glad to wake each day,
   to see your gorgeous face;
To feel you in my arms at night,
   so close, your sacred place.

To feel your warm and tender touch,
   to hear you call my name;
Means so much more than anything,
   yes, massive wealth or fame!

You see my heart has finally found
    the fullest beauty of;
The feeling that makes dreams come true,
    this feeling of your love!

"Time to Shine"

That life you're living now today,
    leads nowhere but down hill;
It takes your soul both night and day,
   and eats away your will.

There's not a day has yet gone by,
   when living in the past;
Has helped you move ahead in life,
   or form a bond to last!

You must move out your comfort zone,
   just dare to do what's right;
Remember doing good today
   will help you sleep tonight!

Now take the time to look around,
   to see those in despair;
They may just need to feel they're loved,
   to know that someone cares!

It's time you make your presence known,
   to stand above the rest;
To be what others wish they were,
   in life to be your best!

"Heartfelt Smile"

There are moments now and then
   when I feel I've lost the fight;
Then I see your gorgeous smile,
   and I know my world's all right!

As you smile that precious smile,
   show me love no words can say;
Share one moment by my side,
   give me strength to face each day.

I can feel it in your touch,
   I can see it in your eyes;
With a smile to pierce my heart,
   give me wings so I can fly!

Never knew I'd find this love,
   now can walk the extra mile;
Didn't know my heart could feel,
   such true love from just a smile!

"Amazing Grace"

As I ran from God above
for far too many years,
My life filled up with burdens
and caused so many tears!

As they found their knees in prayer
my family and close friends,
They prayed for God to wake me
before I reached the end.

Yes, my God has stood by me
as much harder I became;
Felt I always had control
when I'd fall and cast the blame!

Let me tell you, here and now,
with my friends, mom and dad
All praying for me daily
no chance I ever had!

You see with prayers as those
God heard near every hour;
My name they all cried out
all praying for God's power!

God answered all their prayers
He's gotten a hold of me;
He wiped my slate so clean
and from burdens, set me free!

As daily now I walk,
with my Savior, hand in hand;
He fills my life with joy
and by Him, I will stand!

My God, as I now pray,
to help me all my life;
Please guide and show me the way
through Earth and all its strife!

I pray you'll show me how
Your steps to fully trace;
Thanks to all who prayed for me,
and Your such amazing grace!

"Before I Find a Girl I Love"

Oh Lord, I have a BIG request,
which I must ask you now;
Before I find a girl I love,
I pray you show me how.

I know Your word is very clear
on what a girl should be;
Don't let my feelings mix me up,
but give me eyes to see.

Keep me from girls who turn my heart
from You with looks or charm;
Protect me from temptations and
those things which bring me harm.

Help me discern all those sweet words
and actions which are fake;
Guide me to see what's right and wrong,
my love for You is at stake!

Help me consider girls,
with lives that would please You;
Whose focus is to serve You well
And do what You would do!

Lord, help me find a girl that's wise,
that seeks and does what's right;
So if I choose to walk with her,
we'll both walk in Your light.

Show me a girl that knows You well,
that spends much time with You;
So she can know and do Your will
and love just like You do.

I know that if I follow You,
and put You first in all;
The girl I find will be Your choice,
our purity won't fall.

Prepare me, Lord, to be a boy,
that such a girl would choose;
To grow with her, close to Your heart-
with You, we cannot lose!

Please help me to find this girl
when your time is right;
Help her to show me half the love
my mom has all my life!
