You are my protector
You are my strength
You are my light in my darkness,
and my friend till the very end

You do not make me suffer
You never let me down
When I fall, you reach out your hand,
and you lift me up to higher ground

You've opened my heart
and taught me to love once more
When I cry, I know you have broken through
Because all my tears are for you
You have made me, made me yours, and made me whole
for your salvation has brought me here

I just want to say thank you for what you've done,
because I know there is still more to come
What more do I need, for I have you
You are my protector
and I love you.

No matter what you have been told
God is in control
Rest assured he is near
No need to fear
Hold on to Faith real tight
Know that everything is going to be alright
When God is in the midst
Defeat doesn't exist
"In all these things we are more than a conquerors through him who loved us.  For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers,  nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord".

You serve a powerful God
A God who can calm the sea
A God who holds your destiny
He is your healing spring
And in his hands he brings

Because you picked me up when I struggled to get through.
Because you healed my heart when it was thrown and shattered.
Because you gave me hope when it seemed so out of reach.
Because you filled me with peace when chaos flowed through my veins.


Because you showed me the light when there was only darkness.
Because you gave me comfort when my voice cried out in pain.
Because you reassured me when the doubts screamed in my head.

Because you kept me going when there seemed nowhere to go.
Because you sustained me with strength when weakness became all I knew.

The Clarity you gave to me,
It shone like Angel rays,
Like water rushed on golden sands,
And crashed along the bays.

The questions deep within my heart,
Confused my humble mind,
Yet when you spoke your words aloud
It seemed, no longer I was blind.

The answers all came flooding in,
They touched my inner soul,
The knowledge that you gave to me
Within my heart I hold.

I understood that the events
That troubled me somehow,
Was nothing to be frightened of,
Instead I should be Proud.

To me you are an angel in disguise.
Full of intuition, intelligent and wise.
Always giving and helping through good times and bad times.
You are the best friend I've ever had.

If I had one wish it would surely be
to give you as much you've given me

Though I've put our relationship through some cloudy days,
you've been my sunshine in so many ways.
Though trials and tests, right by me you stood,
and gave me your hand whenever you could.

A million stars up in the sky
one shines brighter I can't deny
A love so precious a love so true
a love that comes from me to you
The angels sing when you are near
within your arms I have nothing to fear

You always know just what to say
just talking to you makes my day
I love you honey with all of my heart
together forever and never to part.

A thousand fish found stranded in the middle
of a market town have had better days.

Hooked and gutted and sliding over
each other in barrels, they have the eyes

of humans who secretly worship nothing.
Some get a fair bit of attention

as they shimmy along the cobbled stones,
their mouths agape. Traders throw up their hands.

A man with long hair holds up *******,
says he knows nothing about it.
