Live Again


Some day the heavens will depart
and we will see His face
The one that we've been waiting for
this flesh He will replace..

And though the earth rock to and fro
and boulders fall like rain
All who put their trust in Him
will rise to live again...

The Beast



The beast that lives in each of us
sometimes is unrestrained
Inflicting wounds upon our lives
and causing so much pain...

How oft we think we're in control
we surely cannot fail
Then passions overpower us 
and accusations rail...

We are at best a mystery
a hybrid made by God
A soul and spirit intertwined
and flesh that's weak and flawed...

Reasons


Take her to the mountain tops
and share with her the view
Give her reasons every day
to stay in love with you...

A Kiss


I've waited for this moment all my life
it's more than just a kiss
Something's changed inside my heart
a truth I can't dismiss...

Free


Shine..Shine...Let it shine
Let your light shine down on me
Chase away the darkened clouds
and set my spirit free...

My Dreams


And when I reach to hold my dreams
my heart and life to share
I pray that when I turn to look
that you'll be standing there...

Not Enough


Had almost gotten over you
the door had almost closed
Had found a way to hide my heart
not let it be exposed...

But here you are in front of me
your sorry's not enough
You left me with my darkest thoughts
my pleads were all rebuffed...

You hurt me pretty bad inside
each day I'd wake and cry
I often thought I'd walk away
and find a place to die...

There are no words that I can find
to say to you right now
Another chance to be with me 
I never will allow...
