As a child of God, I awoke one day,
The pain & fear had gone away.
With tears of joy running down my cheek,
No the devil won't win I must defeat.
I had a spiritual encounter with our God up high.
Took an oath to warn about our Lord Jesus Christ.
He's coming back for us his chosen ones.
This is the end of times yeah the devil is done.
As a child of God I'm on my way,
Around the world to preach about the God who saves.
I've been saved by grace no I cannot lie.
There's a love I feel I can't deny.
I vowed to preach the gospel everywhere I go.
Come rain or shine and seasons of snow.
Repent for your sins while you still have time.
For evil will corrupt your life and mind.
As a child of God let your will be done,
Do your work through me our precious Holy one.
Salvation comes from the Lord above.
While demons flee from the God of love.
You have to mean what you say and turn from sin.
Cause when you're half way in the devil still wins.

Heaven blessed us with an angel,
She showered us with love.
But then one day God took you home,
To shine way up above.
Your dancing feet were ready,
It was time to say goodbye.
It was on that day you got your wings,
The angels helped you fly.
On that day we let you go,
A piece of us went with you.
Now we've all come together,
Like our families used to do.
It's not the same without you,
Many tears we all have cried.
Now the memories will last forever,
It's just the tears we cannot hide.
The sun now shines upon you,
The grass is always green.
So on that day we meet again,
We'll talk about all we've seen.
On this day we stand together,
There's only one thing left to say.
Cheers to beers and sunshine,
On your celebration day.

Cletus O'Toole had always yearned to fly
He joined the Air Force to give it a try
He tried a daring chandelle
It didn't go all that well
Cletus crashed in the muck of a pigsty

A heart of gold once turned to stone,
Her love so deep yet she sits alone.
Alone in her thoughts there’s still a fear,
Fear of rejection as she sheds a tear.
She lays awake most of the night,
It’s all her emotions she holds tight.
Sharing them means being real,
Her heart is not an easy steal.
She gave her heart few times before,
Now she’s scared to open that door.
At times like this she just asks why,
Is this the way to say goodbye?
Her love for him is deep and true,
Her love so strong it feels so new.
A new emotion she just can’t hide,
She feels it all from deep inside.
She’s longed for a lover not just a friend,
This is something she doesn’t want to end.

I made a wish upon a star and I wished to be where ever you are.
I had a dream of you last night but woke only to see the early morning light.
I wonder if you think of me or if this is just my fantasy.
I find it hard not to feel for you and I wonder if maybe you feel it too.
My heart skips a beat when I look in your eyes and my feelings for you come by surprise.
I can’t explain why I feel this way but I know I would still like to see you one day.
As hard as I try not to think of you, it just happens to be one of the things I do.
Thinking of you and thinking of me, wondering where our lives could be.
I felt for you long ago that day, it’s weird to me I still feel that way.
Who would’ve thought I could cry real tears then end up seeing you after all these years?
I’ve thought about you from time to time but never thought my world would change at the drop of a dime.
I hoped one day to see you, but never imagined it could be us two.
Here we share our deepest thoughts remembering the loves we lost.
If losing one meant finding me, would you give it a chance to see where we could be?
The future is my destiny, for that is where I want to be.

Heaven is a place the angels call home,
And here on earth lost souls still roam.
There’s still a light that shines from above,
But sometimes they stay mostly out of love.
I never understood what death really meant,
Until angels were taken and heaven is where they went.
I heard once before when one is laid to rest,
That it’s just God’s wish he seems to take the best.

Because I could not stop for Death--
the reaper choked my every breath,
silence now! he would exclaim,
your life has been a carnival game--
He cracked his whip, on the march--
we passed Cambell--the London arch,
that lovely place that fed my youth,
his house of mirrors, my honest truth--
Above our heads, a stirring cloud--
the distance fading, a ghostly crowd,
along the Thames he would confide,
that I would someday be his bride--
Wintery winds were like his hands--
he grew colder, and gave commands,
Where was heaven? that saving light,
Where was hell? this torturous night--
The horses screamed, a slavish pain--
my body trembling from the rain,
his laugh was maddening, like his stare,
eternity his proposal, my hearts despair--
Emily, tu sera toujours ma belle--
mon amour brulera comme une chandelle.
The words he spoke, I did not believe,
his love a mystery, I could not conceive--
The carriage vanished, and none did see,
how death did take the best of me.
