Everything, Everything


Everything, everything
We say we want everything
Tonight I make a wish
And hope someday it will come true
To not need anything, and have everything!

But what if I miss the opportunity?
Will my heart be still able to sing?
Yes, that perfect moment passed me by
Yet, I still live to see the bright early morning
It's a star studded cast of sun and clear skies
And singing birds, who are together in tune

I find nothing less of living
Than I was only yesterday
And with everyday, I am reminded of my purpose
I need to always remember who I am, and what I have

I have been given blessing
It is proof of love
I have been given peace
If is proof of joy
Together gladness is given to me

I am in no lack of money, food, a roof over my head
Even friends who lend their hands
But who needs everything?....I do
I am in need of nothing
And have everything

God is gracious
And I am living proof

Why Do I Question Why?


I'm awake and packed-ready to head out
I've got my heart intact but my mind still doubts
If it holds today will tomorrow fall
I see the dawns rays now
And now I hear your call
You see the road but why do I question why
Yeah, you'll see me home but why do I question why
I'm in a sea of doubt

Spark a light im me and take the bitter cold
I've made a mess of me-I need a miricle
I hear a brand new sound resounding in my ear
And in this life I found I got to loose my fear

I will believe in love today
And know that this heart is not afraid
Before the Son was broken and surrenderd to a cross
You loved
Yeah, you loved

I've got to leave
Yes, I've got to leave
I'm going to leave my doubt

Open Skies



I can hear it come today
Rolling thunder is on it's way
I don't want to stand and stare
And I don't want to hide
I want to dance out on the street
And let it know I'm not so weak
But I don't want to let my cares come and make me blind

Open skies are ahead of me
Hope will tear through the atmosphere

We are hammers building walls
Reinforced as hatred calls
If our words can start a war
Let our tounges be tamed
It can only last so long
And it won't always be this way
If your looking straight ahead, you will see the stars

I see hope now straight ahead
Within the Saviors arms

Open skies are ahead of me

I've Got a Tune Stuck In My Head


This is the song I have never heard before

But right now it's all I can hear

It's a beautiful tragedy with a bit of relief

Giving me freedom from all that I fear


It's building me with sound

Blasting, creating, and finding a groove

Living inside with nothing to do

But fall on my face reach for the line

I'm reaching out now, there insn't much time


Is there a doubt that really matters?

If so, let's tear that medody

Bring it out to deconstuct

I do believe there is a remedy


My life had an intro

And now I'm waiting for the end

I'm waitng for the purpose

And the reason that I began
