Out Of The Storm (song)

She stands all alone on the corner
Shivering in the cold, dark rain
It mingles with tears running down her cheeks
She wishes it could wash her clean

She doesn't know who she can turn to
She doesn't know where she should go
She cowers alone in the shadows
One look at her and you'd know

She needs comfort, she needs a friend
Someone who loves her with a love that won't end
She needs a shelter; a place safe and warm
Someone to bring her in, out of the storm


A little boys stands in a graveyard
Angrily wiping his tears
'Cause they just buried his Mama
And he just can't leave her here

He doesn't know what's gonna happen
Now that she's gone away
He cannot fathom the reason
Why she couldn't have stayed

He needs comfort, he needs a friend
Someone who loves him with a love that won't end
He needs a shelter; a place safe and warm
Someone to bring him in, out of the storm


Jesus looks down from His throne up above
His eyes are upon us, and they're full of love

He is our comfort, He is our friend
He really loves us, and His love never ends
He is our Shelter, our place safe and warm
He'll bring us in, out of the storm

Speak To Me...

Oh, let me tell the tales of heaven! Show me the beauty that lies beyond those golden gates; beyond my reach. Speak to me, that I may scribe Your words for others to read. Let me hear the melodies rolling from the tongues of angels so I may repeat them here on earth. Guide my hand, that it might capture the glory and splendour of Your creation for all to see! Let my voice mix with Yours to make a sound not yet heard on this earth. Put Your words in my mind so I may write with eloquence.
Without You, I am naught. Without You, I do not exist. Nothing exists.

"Strong Enough" (song)

The tears are rolling down my face
I hear those words my mind can't erase
And my soul is aching

Oh when will all this misery end?
I feel like I just lost my best friend
And my heart is breaking

Oh where did we go wrong? I thought our love was strong.
Guess it wasn't strong enough. No it wasn't strong enough.

You said you'd always be there for me
That you'd love me for all eternity
I guess you were lying

You left me standing here all alone
You said you know that I'm not "The One"
Now my soul is dying

Oh where did we go wrong? I thought our love was strong.
Guess it wasn't strong enough. No it wasn't strong enough.

I know you're not coming back; I never thought you would
But I would never take you back, even if I could!

There's a smile upon my face
I've run into my Saviour's embrace
And my soul is mending

I never want this moment to end
Just spending time with my Best Friend
It's a happy ending

He gave my heart a song, and I'm right where I belong
'Cause His love is strong enough. Yes His love is strong enough.

Nightsong

The Nightsong is being sung. Can you hear it?
Attentive ears heed the splendid singing of the stream skimming over smoothened stones and sand, winding its way through a wood enchanted by the Nightsong.
Roving eyes rest on the tall, stately trees, cloaked in magnificent mossy majesty. Their leaves tinkle in melodious harmony to the soothing sound of the brook singing the Nightsong.
Skin tingles as a warm night wind weaves her way through the regal trees, and whispers to fallen leaves, enticing them to waltz with her to the Nightsong.
Vision is enhanced as mellow beams of moonlight drift downward to land on the forest floor and ride on ripples of flowing water.
Exquisite fragrances are freed from the flowers on the forest floor, passionately responding to the Nightsong.
All around, the Nightsong is being sung. Just listen.

Just Me

My hands crave the tender touch of another, bigger, stronger, holding them tenderly.
My ears desire to feel the warm breath as my love whispers softly, words of undying love and affection.
My eyes long to sweep over his face and memorize every defining feature.
My heart hungers for the passion felt when he kisses my mouth and my fingers find their way through his hair.
But there is no passion to feel, no face to peruse and memorize, no whispered pledge of devotion, no strong arms to hold me.

Nothing.

Just me.

Hide & Seek

Ready or not, here I come!
I'm gonna find you wherever you run.
Go on and hide; we'll have some fun!
Ready or not, here I come!

Your turn to hide; my turn to seek.
I promise You now that I won't peek.
I'll sneak up behind you; you'll let out a shriek...
Its your turn to hide and my turn to seek.

I'm searching all over; can't find you.
Where in the world did you get to?
Spinning in circles; don't know what to do!
I'm searching all over, but I can't find you!

Wait, what's over behind that tree?
Could it really be you that I see?
It is! I found you! I found you!
Bet ya can't catch me!

You...

The sun in all its glorious splendour pales in comparison to You!

The mountains, majestic and mighty, fall prostrate at Your feet!

The imperial, stately trees of the forest humbly
bend their knees before You!

Even the rocks and stones cry out Your name and sing Your praises!

How much more should we, who were made by You in Your image, who were purchased by Your Son, love and worship you! How much more should we desire to exalt and honour You, bowing low in reverence before Your throne!!
