Who am I Lord
That you are mindful of me
A tiny drop of rain
In a wide expansive sea
What could I ever give
That you could ever need
Who am I Lord
That you are mindful of me

Who am I Lord
That you should bless this wretched man
In all the scope of time
I'm but one single grain of sand
After all I've put you through
You still take me as I am
Who am I Lord
That you should bless this wretched man

Who am I lord
That I would ever deserve
All the mercy poured on me
In the power of your word
Why did you choose these ears
To be the ones to have heard
Who am I Lord
That I would ever deserve

Who Am I Lord
That you could want this heart of mine
It's so rough around the edges
It's been hurt so many times
I know that if I give it to you
It will be forever thine
Who am I Lord
That you could want this heart of mine

It is only by the blood of Christ
That I know exactly who I am
And only by that precious blood
Do I now have the power to stand
The power in your blood poured out
To justify this sinful man
It is only by the blood of Christ
That I know exactly who I am

I Love My Jesus

I love my Jesus
who saved my benighted soul,
I love being loved and caress
by His arms, lo and behold,
I love my Jesus,
do you love yours?

Oceans might be
so shallow or so deep,
but He can always
distinguish my tears.
I love my Jesus.

Terrors reign the night
while the moon is asleep,
but He engraved courage
in my heart for my fears.
I love my Jesus.

I wandered the woods
and found the light,
and those winding roads
led me back to Him.

I love my Jesus
who wiped my tears away,
I have loved Him,
and nothing compares
to the love I found in me.

I was forgiven to the core,
I love my Jesus,
do you love yours?

The Values Of This Land

The Values Of This Land

When did we no longer care
For the values of this land
What happened to the love we shared
For our fellow man

Do we still believe in right and wrong
Can we ever make a stand
When someone is about to fall
Do we lend a helping hand

Do our actions ever bother us
Does our word not mean a thing
Can we tell a lie without regret
Do we care if we are mean

Can we see the pain upon the face
Of our friend that is in need
Have we made the world a better place
With the life that we now lead

What happened to the love we shared
For our fellow man
And when did we no longer care
For the values of this land

I'll Never Stop Loving You

I'll Never Stop Loving You

I feel this hurt thats deep inside
That I hide so others wont see
I say words pretending that I dont care
When I know you're the world to me

I listen to others as they call you names
And I try to see their point of view
Still somehow I know deep in my heart
I'll never stop loving you

It was a promise to God to forever be
But now I walk this path alone
I fill the void and loneliness
With others who come and go

Time will heal is what they say
And I must find that someone new
I can heal my heart and let go of the pain
But I'll never stop loving you

Take A Different Path

Take A Different Path

When you look upon the life you've lived
Will you wish you could go back
Do all the things that you missed
And take a different path

Will the memories that you hold inside
Become a calming peace within
Or will the actions of your past
Make you want to start again

With all the things that you have done
Was more good done then bad
Was the life you lived one of love
A life you're glad you had

Dont look upon the life you lived
And wish you could go back
Do all the things that you love
Take a different path

Life of a single man

Life of a single man

Sometimes we *** in the shower
And we hardly ever make the bed
We clean ourselves with shampoo
Using the lather from our heads

At times we wear the same old socks
That we wore the day before
And dont even get us started
On how long jeans last on the floor

When the bed gets made we sleep on top
Then just straighten when we get up
And do we really need to wash the sheets
If our skin they do not touch

We drink milk from the carton
Eat fast food way to much
We have pizza pie for dinner
And eat leftovers when we get up

We want the house to look real clean
So there are rooms that we don't use
When we can write our name in dust
That's when we grab a broom

This is the life of a single man
We just do what we want to do
It is very hard for us to change
When we meet that someone new

So dont try to change us overnight
So far we have made it through
But if by chance we fall in love
We may just change for you

Forever Joined As One

Forever Joined As One

I wonder what my future holds
And I wish that I could see
What's in store for my life
And if you'll be here with me

Will we take the road together
Or were we meant to walk alone
Can we find the love that slipped away
And somehow make it grow

Will you hold my hand and walk with me
And never let me go
Or Is the love that we once shared
A love forever gone

We both made vows to forever love
And I know our love's not done
A promise to God, that two hearts made
Forever Joined As One

Love With All Your Heart

Love With All Your Heart

There are many different ways to love
That we can have within our hearts
A love that takes it's time to grow
Or one there from the start

Sometimes a love can fade away
A love never to return
While other love is meant to stay
Without worry or concern

It may take time to fall in love
Not all love starts out strong
We must open up our hearts to love
For thats where love belongs

There are times the love we feel inside
Stays hidden for to long
And that person we were meant to love
Not knowing is then gone

The way you choose to love someone
Can depend on who you are
But each person that you choose to love
Love with all your heart

Colors In Between

Colors In Between

To change the way a person thinks
We must show them something new
Let them see a different side
A different point of view

The feelings that they have inside
Become different over time
If we allow for new beginnings
And leave the past behind

One by one we can change a view
And help to change a life
Show the world is built on love
And not just black and white

We cannot judge a person
By the color of their skin
We must see the colors in between
And just help our fellow man
