My heartbeat, is beating out of time
I can’t sleep, or get you off my mind
And I’ve been here before, far too many times
I need your heartbeat, to get me realigned


So tell me is this love?
Is it a vital spark?
Or another question mark?


Palpitations, pound in my chest
I’m out of control, out of control
Hands keep shaking, never at rest
I’m out of control, out of control


You caught my attention like the lights
In the still night with flitting fireflies
Will you call me yours?
I hope in this lifetime
I need your heartbeat its life to humankind



If sail through the blue
To lands I never knew
For someone worthy of pursuit
It could only be you
Could only be you



Palpitations, pound in my chest
I’m out of control, out of control
Hands keep shaking, never at rest
I’m out of control, out of control

Sprang out of bed
the mess in my head
there's a drumline
in my chest
I'm the one late
for the runway
there's a plane on it
with my name on it


I had everything
planned so perfectly

Who would have thought
I'd find a knot
in this coordinated plot
it feels like a failed shot

I get there in time i thank the airline
find my seat A29
I'm in the air now
unaware how
my worst nightmare
i'm in the wrong flight here
I had everything
planned so perfectly

Who would have thought
I'd find a knot
in this coordinated plot
it feels like a failed shot flight here

Welcome to NYC
this is not italy
colosseum and museums
will stay there in my dreams
Is all this pain my price
for not waking up in time

Don't strive to have a life that only looks good from the outside.
Live a life that feels great on the inside.

After all these years I look up
and the moon is the same
Then I look at myself in the mirror
and it's a person that never stopped changing and never will.

Grace Sparks

It's time to untangle
All of the doubts that keep me down
It's time to let go of the pain, the past
All that makes me cry
It's time to venture out
To where I'll grow and learn to soar

Surely I won't miss out
All that you've planned, the best for me
I'm singing out loud, the songs of faith
Let it resound
Sunrise is calling out, “The night has gone
It’s the end of fear!”

En-route to win
Swinging through the wind
In the freedom of Christ my King

Your loving grace sparks
Like a thousand northern lights
So I won't be lost
When you are my guide
(Jesus, you are my guide)

Fuelled by Your perfect love
I’m moving up, moving up
Burden-free and ready to take off
I'm rising up, rising up

Flipping through the pages of this album after 50 years
Wishing I could smell the vanilla field
when you were hugging me.
Wish I had a time-machine to say goodbye
Right now I am in this living room where our nephews should have stayed
and where they should have played.

You left this earth
but not my heart
there you will stay until its last beat.
You left your body
but not my thoughts
there you will stay until we meet again
I hate to think "mine" remains unsaid.
