I'Ll Be Missing You (A Tribute To My Brother)

Verse 1:

Seems like yesterday we was hanging out
Running round; playing tag in the house
Till you hurt me and I would shout
Zach I gotta let this out my mouth cause
Life ain’t always what it seems to be
It hurts cause I can’t see you visually
Now that you’re gone, I feel like dying 
I don’t even see the point in trying
In the future, it’s my only dream
That you open up the gates for me
I ask God sometimes
Why did he take my friend
Why did Zach’s life have to end
When it’s real, I find it hard to deal
With all the everyday pain I feel
I will never forget that time
When I heard what happened on 4.0.9

Chorus:

Every step I take, every move I make
Every single day, every time I pray
I’ll be missing you
Thinking of the day, when you went away
What a life to take, what a bond to break
I’ll be missing you

Verse 2:

It’s hard to bear with you not around
I know you in heaven smiling down
Watching me like you always did
Ever since I was a little kid
Till the day we meet again
In my heart is where you stay till then
Writing songs; writing poems and doing things like crying
Are only half of what gets me by
Memories give me the strength I need to proceed
Through this thing called grief
I go to God for all support
Cause he’s one I know I lean on
God broke this bond
I promise to the one
That will keep it going strong
I will never forget that time
When I heard what happened on 4.0.9

(Chorus:)

Teenage Pregnancy

With broken heart and all alone, she cried.
“I love you.” were his words, but he lied.
A sweet young girl now lost in deep despairs.
No!  Teenage pregnancy; God knows and cares.

She always was her daddy's little girl.
His precious child to womanhood was hurled.
A father's love surpasses anger's flares.
No!  Teenage pregnancy; God knows and cares.

She went to church to learn the right and wrong.
A choir angel singing heaven's song –
Brothers, sisters solemnly sit and stare.
No!  Teenage pregnancy; God knows and cares.

Her rounded body feels the life within.
Motherhood lives near to her chagrin.
Her mother held her close; the tears were theirs.
No!  Teenage pregnancy; God knows and cares.

“Sure, she's nice,” he said, but we are so young.
Fatherhood was not for him; his song was sung.
“She should have been more careful,” he declares.
No!  Teenage pregnancy; God knows and cares.

timely prenatal care, and they have a higher risk for pregnancy-related high blood pressure and its 
complications.

God Is Unhappy

God is a Single
But God can’t create His spouse
That’s why there is hell!

God is the Most Kind
But God is not kind to all
God is the Big Mind!

God is the Most Wise
But God doesn’t know how to
Become all-time nice!

God is the So-So
But God is the best person
God is Mass and Glow!

God is unhappy
But God is so kind and good
He makes us happy!

We can make God smile
But we can't make God happy
God has His own style!


The Ocean's Whisper

It's been so long.
It's been so painful.
The choices I've made,
Haven't ended so great.

Then I saw him.
Everything started to go slow.
And when I saw him,
I found the courage I lost long ago.

Then I heard the ocean's whisper,
And I knew God showed me his blinker.
Though I don't know why,
Penguins can't fly.
And I've tried,
So hard to let the last one go.
So why should I,
Let my heart fall hard again.
I heard the ocean's whisper,
So I listened.

I got the courage,
Of a baby bird to fly.
So I tried because I haven't loved lately,
And you said maybe.

I found myself again.

Then I heard the ocean's whisper,
And I knew God showed me his blinker.
Though I don't know why,
Penguins can't fly.
And I've tried,
So hard to let the last one go.
So why should I,
Let my heart fall hard again.
I heard the ocean's whisper,
So I listened.

I got so worked up,
Because you said maybe.
I watched the clock.
The last thing I heard,
Was tick tock.
My heart sunk.
You never arrived.
I know most of this doesn't rhyme,
But the point is,
He doesn't have the time

Then I heard the ocean's whisper,
And I knew God showed me his blinker.
Though I don't know why,
Penguins can't fly.
And I've tried,
So hard to let the last one go.
So why should I,
Let my heart fall hard again.
I heard the ocean's whisper,
So I listened.

But even now,
The thought of you makes my heart twinkle.

Break All the Mirrors

Break all the mirrors so we can’t see what we’ve become.
What happened to that sixties dream of a world built on love?
Survival made so difficult we couldn’t see it slip away.
Now it is on our children, the bill is theirs to pay.

I swear to God up above it doesn’t have to be this way.
Oh Lord it doesn’t have to be this way.

The flowers once so powerful…have all withered away
We sit here softly rocking, and don’t know what to say
The days they seem so endless with life’s boulders in our way
Our dreams they fall like teardrops and our feet seem stuck in clay

 I swear to God up above it doesn’t have to be this way.
Oh Lord it doesn’t have to be this way.

Why did we choose to settle, for a nightmare as our dream? 
Why did we choose to settle for mammon’s twisted scheme?
Once we danced at Woodstock united as one team
Once we understood to win, on each other we must lean

 I swear to God up above it doesn’t have to be this way.
Oh Lord it doesn’t have to be this way.

We should not have to look at yesterday to see how it should be
We should be able to wake each day knowing we are free
The cost so great while it grows so late and twilight makes its call
Softly chuckling at the structure while knowing it will fall

 I swear to God up above it doesn’t have to be this way.
Oh Lord it doesn’t have to be this way.

To the children we must apologize for we placed them in the stock
Then we frightened handed over the keys to their binding lock
Dashing madly in our search for satisfactions shining bauble
The weight so great the time so late as stumbling we do hobble

I swear to God up above it doesn’t have to be this way.
Oh Lord it doesn’t have to be this way.
 
Oh well, break all the mirrors so we can’t see what we’ve become.
What happened to that sixties dream of a world built on love?
Survival made so difficult we couldn’t see it slip away.
Now it is on our children, the bill comes due today

Premium Member His Song

His song rises across the skies
Where love for Him is instinctive
His eternal light whispers hope
Peace and joy, infinite, sincere

With feelings stirring poetry
His song rises across the skies
Lighting the way to grace so true
Releasing souls – redeeming

Echoes, silent shadows whisper
Singing psalms of gentle belief
His song rises across the skies
Securing genuine disciples

Not doubting, ever convicted
Holy prayers, stirring kindness
Passions aroused by His presence
His song rises across the skies

Love Untitled

she's gone 
Without a good bye 
and these tears I cry 
I don't know why 
Finding it hard 
to carry on 
I still don't know 
where we went wrong 
How can this be 
when you're everything 
my eyes still see 
'My Love' 
I thought I just heard her say 
Guess, I was remembering yesterday 
Yes, I was dreaming of better days 
Only God knows the rhyme and reason 
we were sown together 
for a season 
Winter Spring Summer Fall 
I'll always remember 
the one I love 
best of all 
'My Love' 
Kills me everyday 
hearing those words 
that I long to say 
I wonder if they're 
really being true 
Like I was when 
I said them to you 
Now I know what 
good bye can do 
Now I know I'll be 
missing you 
'My Love' 
I thought I just heard her say 
Sometimes we'll loose even if 
the choice is not ours to choose 
Only God knows the rhyme and reason 
we were sown together 
for a season 
Winter Spring Summer Fall 
I'll always remember 
the one I love 
best of all 
'My Love'

America Melting Pot

A land where all our dreams come true,
A place where we can start brand new,
Where opportunity can chase us down,
Lord have mercy, may you always be found.

For decades, we have praised Your name,
Our slogan, “In God we trust” brought us fame,
We need your help God in our towns,
Lord have mercy, may You always be found.

Moments of silence brought us peace,
Many people’s prayers have drastically decreased,
Have we forgotten who will always be around?
Lord have mercy, may You always be found.

America we are so great, why are so many filled with hate?
Keep your prayers, keep your God, he will be there when things get hard,
For sometimes we need to fall on the ground, 
Lord have mercy, may You always be found.

His eyes are always watching over us,
United we stand, it is an absolute must,
Gods grace always abounds,
Lord have mercy, may You always be found.

A venture, a journey, many pursuing a goal,
Our sweet country can touch every soul.
You can learn so much even when there is not a sound,
Lord has mercy, may You always be found.

Where ever you go whatever you do,
There is always someone that can teach you something new,
A mixing feast that is so profound,
Lord have mercy, may You always be found.

The Bridge

An obstruction can be overcome by building a bridge
Whether the obstacle is of land or of sea
But the bridge most essential to all of mankind
Is the one that leads to God, no other way to Him we'll find

With three nails and a cross, Jesus built us a bridge
To carry us across sin's deep abyss
There is no other way, for without Him we are lost
Jesus saves with a bridge made of three nails and a cross

God the Father was willing to send His only Son
God the Son obeyed and left His home on high
Born of a virgin by God's Spirit, clothed in humanity
Born to die, to rise again, He bridged the gap for you and me

We are such loathsome sinners, while God is so pure
It's impossible to match His perfect ways
No earthly bridge can reach over a chasm so wide
Only one such bridge exists, the one that Jesus provides

With three nails and a cross, Jesus built us a bridge
It's the only way to span sin's great divide
He offered up His life, there is no greater cost
Thank the Lord, He built a bridge with three nails and a cross

There has been many bridges built by the hands of men
Much skillfulness and toil they did employ
But none can be compared to, or was made with such love
As the bridge our Lord supplies for us, that leads to God above

Jesus offers free passage for you to cross that bridge
It's the only way, the Bible tells us so
No toll is required, it was paid for with His blood
Accept His gracious gift and He will guide you by His love

With three nails and a cross, Jesus built us a bridge
It's the only way to span sin's great divide
He offered up His life, there is no greater cost
I'm so thankful He built a bridge with three nails and a cross

Premium Member Your Favourite Song: God Will Make a Way

When nagging pain pulls me down each day,
And I have no more words left to say, 
This song I cling on to, as I pray,
God will make a way, 
		where there seems to be no way

When life is as tough as it can be,
Working hard, am paid no salary,
At night, as I weep in agony,
This promise tunes me - 
		He works in ways we can't see

When pressures build up and slow my stride,
When troubles chase, there's no place to hide,
But in His Word, as I, then abide,
He will be my guide, 
		hold me closely to His side

"In His time", though it seems to delay,
He'll wipe my tears and troubles away,
He's promised ever with me to stay,
With love and strength for each new day, 
				He'll make a way

I can sing with faith strengthened again,
I can sing this soothing song in pain,
I can sing this refreshing refrain,
Heav'n and earth will fade, 
		but His word will still remain

When the sands keep shifting, He's my stay,
When I'm upset, His songs make my day,
One day, on the other shore, I'll say,
"God has made a way, 
		yes, my God has made a way."

God and Me

God and me
verse 1
when i see God I think of myself,
God and me walking together
side by side singing his love,
God and his choices are one with mine
i love Gods world because it is me and God,
walk with God,
cherish his love,
speaking his truth
walking in his holy light,
God and me always,
verse 2
God speaks to the birds and i hear them sing
my ears perk happily receiving his love in sound,
God like the birds alway flies in my mind
oh my God, you are my love you are my joy,
without you i would be lost in the world,
walk with God
cherish his love
walking in his holy light
God and me always
verse3
I saw the garden of eden,
God showed me his path
sweet like mist morning,
his breath touches my solar plexus,
God's love is in my heart
every foot step of God is my force of life moving through me
God's presence reains eternal
walk with God
cherish his love,
walk in his Holy light
God and me always.Penny lapsley,Holy spirit thank you God for helping me

Zero

A little child sits alone, in his home tonight
Mothers gone out, as he’s just pushed aside
Only five years old, and being alone is such a fright
His mommy hasn’t hugged him, since his daddy died

He dials zero on the telephone, asking for the number to heaven
The lady said God don't have a phone, as she begins to laugh
He tells the lady she's wrong, that daddy said God loves all his children
And as a tear rolled off his cheek, he said God has everything

Zero was the number of hugs, his mommy gave him
Zero was the kisses she gave, when he’d clean his room
Zero was the presents he recieved, last week when he turned five
To him zero was the way of life, since his daddy died

He dials the number to the church, where his daddy used to go
He said preacher man, I need to talk to God and daddy
He said the lady says, I can't talk to God on the telephone
But tonight I'm all alone, and I need to talk to daddy

The preacher man told him to talk to daddy, he had to get down on his knees
That God and daddy were listening, that they would hear his words
When the preacher man was done, he came and took the boy into the city
And with a smile on his face, the little boy said my daddy heard my words

Zero was the number of hugs, his mommy gave him
Zero was the kisses she gave, when he’d clean his room
Zero was the presents he recieved, last week when he turned five
To him zero was the way of life, since his daddy died

Now he lives with a new mommy and daddy, kisses and hugs everyday
His mommy sits in a cell alone, full of tears and feeling sad
Now zero is the sons she has, for leaving him alone to play
And zero is the number he forgets, when he kneels and talks to dad

On the Outside Looking In

Verse 1:
Why does every thought come to this
Now it’s the innocence that I miss 
Change is all I ever see
I can’t leave this up to me

Chorus:
We all wanna be
On the outside looking in
Doin everything we can
To be the better man

Verse 2:
Always trying to take the power
Climbin to the tallest tower
But in the end it comes to nothing
Why can’t I hold on to something

Chorus:
We all wanna be
On the outside looking in
Doin everything we can
To be the better man


Verse 3:
Failures creating such anger inside
The hatred of God has become far too wide
The inner flesh is eating the best of me
But thankfully God has woke me up to see

Chorus:
We all wanna be
On the outside looking in
Doin everything we can
To be the better man

Verse 4:
Before everything’s too late
I’m gonna let God decide my fate
Even though I’m just a sinful man
By the grace of God I’m a part of a greater plan

Chorus:
We all wanna be
On the outside looking in
Doin everything we can
To be the better man

Premium Member The Train

It's been years since I've heard that lonesome whistle blow 
Or smelled the smoke along the track
And I've been getting the urge to go
As my memories carry me back
There's an old railway station with its' doors boarded up
Thats a monument to days gone by
It holds stories of passion, triumphs and love
And it brings a tear to my eye

I want to ride these rails till the day I die
I want to see the cities passing by 
To hear that lonesome whistle cry
And to camp out in the rain

I want to feel the freedom that the railroad brings
Listen to the song that the bluebird sings
Visit places where I can spread my wings
Oh God I miss the train

There's an open road calling out to me
There's a lot of places I want to see
The lure of the rails won't let me be
And it's driving me insane

I  just don't know what I want to do
To settle down would make me blue
Always looking for something new
Oh God I miss the train

I walked those railroad tracks
When I was just a kid
Throwing stones, singing songs
Never kept my feelings hid
I'd sit on those wooden benches
And watch the old man sell tickets to places far away
And daydream of cowboys and outlaws riding the ranges
On a hot and sultry day
Now those days are no more
But I'm still longing for
The mountain and valley and plain
Although I still yearn
I can never return
Oh God I miss the train.
