Let Him In

stop running away
there is nowhere to hide
and there is nowhere to go
let him in
give it up 
give it all up to God
you can't fix this 
i said you can't fix this
like God can
let him in/ let him in (x2)

you can't love two
let him in

he is waiting on you
the choice is yours to choose
you will be the one to lose
come to him just as you are
God is knocking 
at the doors of your heart
let him in/ let him in
don't wait to long
to long maybe to late
come on and let God in 
let him in/ let him in (x2)

you can't love two
let him in

forgiveness will set you free
Jesus died for you and me
died on the cross 
that we not be lost
by his stripes we are healed
with us his blood he has sealed
let him in/ let him in (x2)

you can't love two
let him in

let him in/let him in
let him in/let him in
stop running away
there is nowhere to hide
and there is nowhere to go 
let him in

A Smile

A mind 
Can't move in truth
When that mind 
Is under stress!

But a mind 
Moves it's best
When a kind word
Comes it's way!

Be kind
To That stranger!
Be kind 
To that one
You say you don't
Love today!

Because kindness 
Don't kill, people do!
But a smile brings joy
Into ones heart!

Give away 
A smile today!
