Your Love Made the Difference

Jesus, Your love changed me
Your love made the difference
You loving me changed me
I’m not the same
I’ve been changed
I’m a new person
Changed from the inside out
Jesus, Your love changed me
Your love made the difference
You loving me changed me
I can pray for my enemies
I can turn the other cheek 
Jesus, Your love changed me
Your love made the difference
You loving me changed me
I can love, love unconditionally
I can bless those who curse me 
Although not always easy, I can do it
Yes, I can do it 
Jesus, Your love changed me
Your love made the difference
You loving me changed me
Changed me from the inside out

Let's Celebrate Our Mothers

A mother is strong and courageous
A mother is tender and caring
A mother corrects and disciplines
A mother's love survives all
A mother’s love has no length or width; depth or height
A mother prays fervently for her child
Through tests, trials, and tribulations, a mother never gives up hope
Although she gets a little weary at times, a mother keeps pressing on
A mother wants what is best for her child
A mother shields and protects her child, like David against Goliath
A mother will stand against a giant
A mother knows God’s on her side
A mother makes sacrifices
A mother puts her child’s needs before her own
A mother goes the extra mile
A mother has a special call
A call God has given her
His wisdom she needs the most
So let’s celebrate, "Our Mothers"

The Sun Is Always Shining

The sun is always shining
Even when it's dark and cloudy
Even when our days are dreary
The sun shines brightly
Thank God 
Thank God
The sun is always shining 
Rainy days 
Cloudy days
Good and bad days
Through all our ups and downs
No matter what our challenges
The sun is always shining bright
High in the sky
Bright and shiny
So run your race
Run it well
Keep the faith
And thank God
Thank God
The sun is always shining 
Shining brightly for you and me
Even when we can't see it
The sun is always, always shining

Keep Fighting

You cannot quit
Quitting isn’t an option
Keep fighting
Keep rising
Give it all you got
Jump every hurdle
Knock down all barriers
Face all your giants
Like David against Goliath 
Eye to eye
Toe to toe
In the Lord’s strength and might
You cannot quit
Quitting isn’t an option
With God all things are possible
Keep fighting
Not with words or violence
On your knees in prayer to God 
He will work things out
You just keep doing what is right
And remember 
Remember quitting isn’t an option
You must keep fighting

The Rainbow

A beautiful rainbow was painted in the sky
Arrayed with many colors, so I stopped and I stared
At the rainbow
The rainbow in the sky
And I thought of You
And the amazing things You do
And I smiled
I felt real good inside
I know how beautiful You truly are
So I praised You with all my heart
As I looked at the rainbow
The rainbow in the sky
The one You sent to us today
It took my breath away
What a sight 
A sight it was
The rainbow
The beautiful rainbow in the sky

Beautiful Creatures

We’re beautiful creatures, 
shaped and fashioned by God
We’re loving and kind
We’re sweet and gentle
We’re bright and smart
We teach and correct
We organize and orchestrate
We're beautiful creatures
We’re strong and courageous 
We comfort and encourage
We can be as meek as a lamb, 
as tough as a lion
We make a house a home
We're beautiful creatures
We’re hard to understand
We're hard to figure out
We can laugh our loudest laugh 
We can smile our brightest smile 
We can cry for no reason at all
We can be soft and sweet, as a rose, 
but watch out for our thorns
We’re beautiful and complicated
God’s beautiful complicated creatures

Still Got It

You still got it
Got it like that
My heart still goes pit-a-pat
Chills all down my spine
Whenever you're around
I look into your eyes
And I'm hypnotized 
I get all queasy inside
You still got it
Got it like that
Listen to my heart
It's going pit-a-pat
Pit-a-pat
You still got it
Got it like that

Keep Stepping Up

I stepped out onto the baseball field of life
Nervous flutters stirring inside me
Realizing it was my time 
My time to bat
Sweaty hands 
Nervous stomach
Sweat rolling down my forehead
Nothing was going to stop me
I got in position
I lifted my bat 
I closed my eyes
I took a deep breath
Trying to relax myself
It was my time
Yes, my time
Trials and tribulations won't hinder me 
Hardships and persecution won't discourage me
I'll survive no matter what
I won't walk away
I won't give up
This is what I've waited for 
A chance to fulfill my dreams 
Dreams the Lord has given me
This is what I thought to myself, as I stood there gripping my bat
My face covered in sweat 
My heart pounding in my chest
As I prepared to swing at whatever came my way
Maybe I'll hit the ball out of the ballpark today
So I braced myself, as the ball made its way to me
Here it comes
Here it comes
I closed my eyes 
And I swung
And………
And, what's next?

At Peace

The peace has come
The pain is gone
Your journey is over
You are now at home
No more tears
No more pain
Because of Heaven's gain
Rejoice, rejoice my heart 
Because of Heaven's choice
You know she's better off
To live is Christ 
To die is gain
When it's time we'll meet again 
Laughter has replaced my tears
And time has removed all fear
Now as I look back over the years
Oh, how sweet the memories
The good, bad, and in-between
All so sweet to me
Because you meant the world to me

Wow

Your love, Your mercy, Your grace
Your loving-kindness, Your gentleness
Wow is all I can say
As I sit and ponder on these things
Your righteousness, Your faithfulness
All the extraordinary things You do
Wow is all I can say
As I sit and ponder on these things
Your protection, Your provisions
Your Angels keeping watch over me
Wow is all I can say
As I sit and ponder on these things
Your joy, Your peace
Your patience with me
Wow is all I can say
As I sit and ponder on these things
Wow is all I can say
"Wow!"
