Mask

Take off that mask that hides your past it's ok to show the real you
Like everyone else we have made mistakes and are struggling
 each day just to make it through
Take a deep breath of air and open up your heart,
 if you continue to hide your feelings you'll never get a new start

The truth will surface and show up on your face
 so stop hiding in the bushes and get right back in the race
You have to look towards the future and let some things go
Get in tuned with your heart and let your feelings flow

You'll release some pressure and the stress you will relieve
So go on with your life and work towards something to achieve
Never lose sight of who you are, always know your self worth
And know that you have purpose, that's why you were put on this earth

White Christmas

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
with the snow laying on top of the roof
and the sound of Santa's reindeers hoof 
as they make their rounds throughout the town
it rings out such a joyful sound.

A white Christmas would be so lovely and bright
it gives you the feeling that dreams still take flight
Oh what a wonderful sight it would be
to have a white Christmas around my tree

I'm dreaming of a white Christmas and the snowman I'll make 
and afterwards we'll settle in and take a coffee break
Oh Christmas, Oh Christmas please paint the canvas white
and create a Winter wonderland while I'm asleep tonight.

Wedding Bliss

My wedding day was the best although the night before I just couldn't rest
The anticipation of what was to come, had me so very excited but feeling numb
Got up with the break of day, hoping and praying that everything would be ok
Got out early to get the nails and hair set, for this would be a day that I surely would never forget.

As time passed by that magical time had finally come, I'd walk down the aisle and see the faces of family, friends and some.  As the doors swung open all eyes were on me, nervousness started to settle so much that I could barely see
The walk seemed so long and the church seemed so hot, but as I approached the front the calmer I got.  And as I looked up my husband to be, stepped up to the alter and greeted me.  Looking so handsome and dapper in his black tux, I wouldn't trade this moment for a million bucks.

As we turn to face the preacher to wed, then recited the vows that we read.  Then we were pronounced as man and wife, I was oh so ready to start this new life.  When I heard you may kiss the bride, the butterflies were instantly released from inside.  Off we walk down the isle as two became one, now off to the reception to party and have some fun.

The Light

The Light of the Lord is truly amazing
It always keeps me fondly gazing
and wondering where I would have been
If you hadn't given your life for my sin

The Light of the Lord is brand new each day
and it shines with a glow that never fades away
I'm so glad Lord that in your arms I can stay
because for your love there is no price to pay

The Light of the Lord will keep you strong
and give you the courage to stand when things go wrong
so keep the faith and lean on His everlasting arm
and He will keep you safe and free from all harm

Queen For a Day

If I were queen for a day I would sit on my thrown
loving myself and all that I own
being pampered from head to toe
traveling worldwide whereever i want to go

If I were queen for a day I would live in a castle
living the life of glamour free from all hastle
relaxing on a secluded beach in the bahamas
and sippin endlessly on bahama mammas

If I were queen for a day I would dreess to the nine
everything I wear would have me looking so fine
smelling of perfume that's oh so sweet
living in the lap of luxury just can't be beat

All hail to the queen which is me
be it real life or fantasy
but wouldn't it be great to see
a dream turn into reality.

A Mothers Love

A Mothers love can never be measured
It's something that just simply must be treasured
For who else can give us a mothers love
As it is meant to be given from the Lord above

Mothers are send from heaven to nurture and care
And be a shoulder to cry on when we need them there
To scold us when needed and give us an occasional whack 
For sometimes that's what was needed to get us on track

For those whose Mothers are gone but with you in heart
Remember all the great times you spent and never let that part
The lessons and the foundation they set to help us grow
How much we love and appreciate them words can never show

So to all the great mothers out there who feel unappreciated 
I understand because motherhood is truly underrated 
But be not discouraged because your hard work is not in vain
And with the day you will find your sunshine after the rain

Who Are You

Are you sensitive to the things that people say
Allowing what's said to determine the outcome of your day
Letting others push your buttons and take you there
Knowing that everyone's not nice and life is just not fair

Are you a people pleaser trying to appease everyone
Knowing that keeping everybody happy just can't be done
Being helpful, kind and considerate to keep the peace around
But knowing that somewhere someone's gonna try to bring you down

Are you a hard working person that's just trying to get a break
Trying so hard to be perfect and make not one mistake
Beating yourself over the head with each wrong turn you take
Not believing in yourself and wrestling with every decision you make

Are you that self centered person who thinks the world revolves around you
No one can measure up to your standards or do as well as you do
Thinking everyone's ideas are bad but yours are always good
If you keep up with that mentality you just might fall where you stood

Are you the rational one in the crowd who just tries to make things clear
You talk until you're black and blue but very few have a listening ear
The fact is most people simply just want things to go their way
And they will stick to it no matter what anyone might say

This Thing Called Love

What is this thing called love, is it being served breakfast in bed or is it waking up reminising about the sweet words that he said. What is this thing called love, is it dinner and dancing by candlelight or sitting on the porch sipping on a glass of wine by moonlight. What is this thing called love, is it he loves me he loves me not, or could it be that I've finally realized what I've got. Love is a powerful thing, emotions run wild as it tugs at your heart string. To be in love is really great, but don't just settle for any old date. For when it is right the sparks will light, cause this thing called love is dynomite.

Dare To Care

Dare to care for those who are hungry and have nothing to eat
Dare to care for the people who are homeless and living on the street
Dare to care for that sick person who won't get well
Dare to care about the youths who have made their home inside a cell
Dare to care about the battered wife who feels he loves me when he hits me,
she never knew what it was like to have real love, the only love she knows
is through the pain of a glove.

Dare to care for the baby who was born with aids, you see the mother fell for every
 guy she met at a glance and now because of her negligence this innocent baby
hasn't been given a chance.  Dare to simply tell a stranger to have a good day, 
something so simple might be whats needed to chase their blues away.
Little things mean a lot, you don't have to have millions to make someone's day,
A smile or a kind word or deed just might be all it takes to pave the way.
Dare to care.

Know Your Place

It's important to Know your place in this time and space
Don't look down look up at the obstacles you face
Stand up strong and tall and run a good race
and it doesn't even matter if you don't come in first place

Believe in who you are and know that you are a winner
Like the roadrunner who refuses to be anyone's dinner
Keep on moving and let nothing pull you back
be persistent and stay on the right side of the track

Keep your head up to the sky and let the light embrace you
be confident in what you do and to thine own self be true
It all comes down to what you choose to make of it
So make sure that you know your place and never ever quit.
