I give my heart to you
I know you are there
Waiting in the dark
Even as crazy as the world is
I feel your spirit inside me
Guiding and influencing me
No matter what people might say
Or what people might think
I know your spirit is real
I know you are in my heart
Shining out and healing me along the way
Giving me the light and the love
To show to a world that is in the dark
Being a beacon of light and hope
To the people of the world
And the people around me
I thank you for allowing me to be
Your vessle for love and light
Allowing me to offer love
Through me from you
Even through everything
I have been through
I know you are real
And guiding my steps
That's why I will continue
To give myself to you
Feeling your heart
And your love shaping in me
A little more day by day

We have many rivers to cross
Many burdens to bear in this life
Many trials to overcome
We have times in our lives
When it feels like the river
Can get very deep
When it feels we are
Swimming upstream
Just when you think
You have crossed over
There is another river
Waiting for you to wade through
The water can get over our heads
Can drown us until we cant breathe
We have to be willing to cross the rivers
To wade in the waters for a little while longer
Washing up whatever life floats our way
We have to be willing to get a little wet in life
To truly get ourselves clean
Washing away the old you
With a brand new one
As you float along the rivers of life

The world has gone crazy
There is turmoil every where
Divisions all around
It seems like people
Are going backwards
Falling darker into the night
Falling deeper into the void
Living with hate in their hearts
Living at the brink of nothing
Living with depression
Living with despair
Without an ounce of grace
Moving further away from the light
Every thing goes these days
Without any sense of control
Or consequences
People have lost their minds
And it seems to get worst every day
But even through all the craziness
Even through all of the chaos
Even through all of the darkness
There is a part of me that is excited
Excited to see what is to come
We live on the brink
There is a chasm before us
We are just about to jump
And we are about to cross
Even as crazy as life might seem
There is still hope, love, grace, and mercy
And there are still miracles hiding in the dark
We just have to know where to look
To see the goodness and the light
That is waiting for us to accept it
To acknowledge that its there
Once you do life takes on a different tone
It takes on a whole new beauty and purpose
You start to see just how wonderful and crazy times
We are living in and you can become excited to
Living with light and grace and hope
And learning how to spread that sense of excitement
To everyone you meet

There is a cave down below
That is waiting to be discovered
There is a cave filled with peril
But there are hidden treasures inside
There is a cavern
A ravine that has a special source
That springs up once we have
Discovered it
It is the spririt that
Lies in all of our souls
The spirit that flows
If we know where to find it
Giving forth its riches
To all who are willing to seek
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
Everything in life has meaning
Even your life matters
Everything in the universe
Has a great design and purpose
From the smaller atom
To the biggest star
Everything matters
We have to see the bigger picture
To truly find meaning
Not only for our own lives
But for everything else inbetween
Ahmad Cox Nov 2012
We need to surrender
Surrender to life
Surrender to our
Circumstances
Surrender completely
Living in the moment
Surrender to the love
Surrender to joy
Find it in your soul
Surrender today
We all need to release
We need to let go
Surrender the pain
surrender the doubts
Surrender those moments
That take you away from peace
Surrender to grace
Give in to the mercy
Surrender it all
At the end of the day
There is peace in your soul
Never let it go
As much as the world
And the day
And life
Can make you
Surrender to the pain
Give in to the peace
That inner calm
Surrender

Are you ready for love
Could you really accept it
If it came to you today
Could you accept yourself
Could you love completely
Loving with your whole soul
If love were to come to you
Could you look deep inside
And find the love that is waiting there
Tucked inside your soul
Just waiting to come out
Could you feel and receive love
Could you give it back completely
Without hesitation or regret
if the answer is yes
Don't be afraid to give love
We all need to feel loved
If you are truly ready to receive
Open up your heart and let love in
Love without fear
Allow the love
To settle in your heart
Until love becomes all you know
