Worth the wait is what I'm thinking while I await her
arrival, tensions collide on the opposite sides of the line,
but we both know how this movie ends...roll credits, is
this a mistake...no time for second guessing we're already
in too deep this feeling we all live for that moment where
our heart skips a beat I long for her to be laying right next
to me, its a commitment but the emotions run free...she
can't deny it 20/20 is what she now sees, and since the
script has already been written even he has no power in
what's about to happen when it comes to her decision
now she's listening...to her heart its clear as the blue
skies, she was my rib all along so we both long to be
walkin side by side.
I encorage you to assume, assume Im everything you
thought I would be like I lived up to the hype, of your
standards and now walkin in Christ Jesus marvelous light,
assume Im the man who you been searching for you just
overlooked becuz there was clutter in ya rearview,
assume I dont just wear my heart on my sleeve but my
feelings for you are so see threw, assume Im imperfect
but striving for progression, I want you to assume nothin
of what Im telling you is deception, assume together we
can conqueror everything thats been hindering us from
going above and beyond, assume what we have goes
deeper than a physical bond, assume I need you as much
as you need me, the first thought that comes to your
mind is how to please me and the last that comes to mine
is how I wouldn't wanna grieve you, assume the only way
you can pursue me is by first seeking Christ, and the only
way Im gonna notice you is if you're obedient to his every
word with all your heart and might.
a symphony of prayer
touches my mind
and in the peace
of whispered words
I soothe my heart
some are imprinted
without thought
and as filigreed light
warms my soul,
they slip out
as an adoration
sung from the heart
in these moments
of reverence and love
where no pain can burn
or malice survive
I come as close to heaven
as I can bear to be
When the times are tough,
And the days are getting long
Open up your heart to Him,
And you will sing a different song
For His Love will Set You Free
When the tears are falling,
And misery is slowly setting in
Open up your heart to Him,
And a new life you will begin
For His Love will Set You Free
When the nights grow dark,
And you feel so all alone
Open up your heart to Him,
And feel the greatest love you’ve ever known
For His Love will Set You Free
When you feel like giving up,
And your world is slowly falling apart
Open up yourself to Him,
And let Him fill your heart
For His Love will Set You Free
When you grow confused,
And don’t know just what to believe
Open up your heart to Him,
And be ready to receive
For His Love will Set You Free
The End
by Greg P
I looked across the valley scene
All dulled by winter’s blight
My heart was chilled by where I’d been
And weakened by the night
Her distant smile, a long lost dream
Before the years went by
My eyes were closed by sunny beam
And sought never to pry.
The winter’s end will come too soon
Awhile I wonder how
I failed to see the silver moon
But hear her wisdom now
Then springtime came to fill the trees
With pastel shades, all new
And dawn’s first glimpse upon a breeze
My heart has thawed, it’s true.
And if perchance I should begin
To hear her song on Earth
The valley echoing the wind
To fill the world with mirth.
I think I would be trembling there
and hope that love will shake
the fear that leaves me standing there
quivering in her wake.
Lord, send me phrases on Eagles wings
So I can express what my heart sings
Enable me to discover a way
To find the perfect words to say
To comfort, encourage or bring a smile
To lift men's spirits for a little while
To light the way when darkness falls
To soften the blow when tragedy calls
To express true love from a timid soul
Whose emotions are kept under strict control
I do not aspire to fortune or fame
I will never be worthy of great acclaim
To touch a heart is my reward
And for these gifts...I thank you Lord

I never thought I was blind yet now I see me
It was like having a seeing eye dog though I could see
It all becomes different when you rely on somebody’s eyes
The things that you once cherish just wither and die.
Today I tried faith with a little less sight
It’s comforting to find light even when it is night
I don’t have the answers I believe in right and wrong
It saddens my heart to see all that has gone.
So I decided to walk with God quite a different path
I feel peace in my heart not forsaken with wrath
I do still wonder if I’m doing what is right
And then I remember the darkness of night.
I hope and I pray that these changes are real
I’m growing quite fond of how my heart feels
So I walk with faith and hope for a better day
Maybe I can see faith in a different way.
to the quick and easy start
i will touch your very heart
i have a sis named kim
she is riding on a slim rim
she has lukimia cancer
we are all trying to heal her
she is very happy though
for which we all know
mind over matter
matter over mind
beleive it in you heart
before you turn blind
because every day you live in this world
you learn a great thing
you make little birds sing
so if you have the chance
say i love you
be sure to take a glance
because this might be your last
because this beautiful life goes by so fast
"I come to the garden alone"
In the quiet still of morning
On dawn my empty heart does hone
As the Doves sing their love mourning
"Each time I touch a rose petal"
That the dew refreshed over night
As I sit surrounded settle
Rose scent wafing in early light
"Just a little talk with Jesus"
Amazing grace suddenly astounds
His presence fills scents of narcissus
Here in the earthly earth no bounds
"Then I bowed on my knees and cried Holy"
For in His presence my heart glowed
Promising love to Him wholly
He my burdens took lifted heavy load
Holy, Holy

I could not find the bands names to go with the performing artist
I start to get flashbacks of
things that had gone wrong in my past
my heart is trying so hard not to let the pain show
only one question is stuck in my mind at the moment…
Is my faith busy fading?
Then a another question…
Why is the Devil doing this to me?
In the corner of my eye
I can see my Bible
It’s calling out my name and soul
With my heart drenched in tears
and my soul broken
I reach out to grab the truth and
A book filled with promises never to be broken
As I read through the holy book
My heart, mind and soul fills up with joy, happiness
And I got all the answers that I pondered about
It just goes to show…
When I need saving…
God is the only one!
The Waxing Moon and the Wind
The winter wind tears at the throat of night
like a fair weather friend.
Once, breeze born seeds had nourished
the ripe soil of summer's joining,
alliances of water, wind, earth and fire
which formed from heart source,
now ravaged by competition.
Howls of blood lust wreak havoc
on the weakening darkness, the pack hunts,
reveling in the hoar frost and the sharp
hump of gibbous moon in the eastern sky.
Each rattle of shutter brings hope to the
onslaught of gale searching to claim
the lead and lead…
to find a chink in the human armor
of hearth, home and family.
Yet, though the wind has might,
the heart fire burns bright and in this warm
light true friendship can be born,
for there is no beauty in the gnashing of teeth
and rending of nascent flesh.
May the wind mellow and once again
carry the seeds of Spring, new life, new art,
and upon the rack of Godly hart.
The garrish glares light now the sky
And upward turns the people's eye
In every heart a silent longing
On every saged heart a silent wish
For all things old must swiftly perish
And all embrace the year's new coming
And all be glad to sing
A love song to the king
A love song to the king
And all be glad to sing
To God who promised everything
And saved us on eagle's wing
And light gleams a thousand hopes
A thousand kisses bring
And marching feet conquer new the slopes
And happy children sing
The new year, the new year, another chance
To live, and love again, and laugh, and dance
And worship new the king
And worship now the king
binding together my angel
binding together my ceizar
binding thoughts of you
binding hearts so close
love for you is so wonderful in my heart of tears that fall
but my heart stays so lonely with out you by my side my angel ceizar
passion so strong for all to see
i love thee so deep in my heart of tears
flowers bloom so sweet so powerful to the eye
scents so sweet
tears that fall are to you my ceizar
for i love you
Trust is like mirror,
Once it is broken,
Courage is withdrawn,
To look back in it!!!
Trust is like precious stone,
Hidden in the deep,
When someone special comes,
It is pulled out as a beam.
Trust often fills bliss,
Leaving behind smirk,
Trying to multiply it,
And we are flown with it.
Whenever we trust,
Have distrust!
“Was I right to act?”
And we share the lot.
We usually think:
“Now I am not alone,
My heart splits into two.
One is with thee.”
But, when it is smashed,
World is shattered.
Ignore the heart beat,
Come back please!
Trust often breaks,
Leaving behind pain,
Trying to multiply tears,
And we are poured in it.
Trust is like disorder,
Some come out of its sting.
It is also a medicine,
Some achieve its destiny.
Why does the one betray us? Why do we adore someone? If we need to face the bitterness of
separation, then there is no need to trust anyone.
Trust my spirit
By Shrishty
The potential sits and looks
At himself in the mirror,
Physically,he's without terror
But his heart is full of horror.
His future,bright and glorious,
His decisions blight and delirious,
This made everything ridiculous,
But he tends to tight up and be
Meticulous,for to mend the heart is
Harmonious,and the potential ends up
Glorious....
For glory's sake,he is a potential.
