How

Posted in Songs

Here's another song that I'm working on. Feedback would be much appreciated for any of my songs as I'm still a bit new to song writing. Any suggestions are welcome!

How

How is it,
That you can see my pain?
How is it,
That you can see through the mask,
That I so carefully created?
You know how I feel,
You knew how I'd feel,
Before I was born,
How is that?

CHORUS
You are all I need,
To fill the hole in my heart,
You were everything I needed,
To cease the aching deep inside.

So long I've tried,
To cover my sin,
So long I've tried,
To run away from all the,
Problems in my life,
Act like nothings wrong,
Just hide behind my smile,
And hope that it's enough,
But knowing I needed something more.

CHORUS

I didn't know,
That You were waiting for me,
I didn't know,
That You were knocking,
Just waiting for me to open the door,
Let You in, surrender myself,
To Your love, Your grace,
So that You could fill me to the brim,
You wanted to show me that.

CHORUS

So finally I let you in,
And I knew at once that,
I wouldn't have to hide anymore,
You had taken over my life,
Washed me whiter than snow,
Now I can never me ashamed,
Because you are my king,
And I have something to live for,
All along you were all I needed.

CHORUS

Help Me Lord

Posted in Songs

Here is a new song I'm working on:

Help Me Lord
Trapped, but so eager to break free,
Wanna tell all about me change,
Can't get through the door,
Get tongue-tied, can't breath either.

What looks so easy for some,
Is harder than a brick wall for me,
What is the matter with me?

CHORUS
Look down and help me Lord,
I'm sinking under the waves,
I'm trembling and frightened,
This isn't my home and I'm lost,
I need Your sustaining touch.

Why can't I just move forward?
I want to get on, give it my all,
But how can I when I'm chained down,
Knees knocking and throat too dry to speak,
The world tells me NO,
They don't want me to spread the good news.

CHORUS

So here I am stuck,
Can't move forward,
But don't wanna go back,
To the life I led before.

I drop to my knees,
Fold my hands and pray,
I need Your help Father.

CHORUS

And he comes to me,
Lifts me up and bears me through,
Shows me I have nothing to fear,
I step out, knowing He's with me all the way.

Together we can tell storm the castle,
I will not fall far with Him at my side,
He's always there, ready to catch me.

He looked down and helped me,
I'm no longer sinking, I flying,
He stopped my trembling, He gave me a boldness,
My way is clear before me,
And always his touch sustains me.

A Reason

Posted in Songs

Here's another song that I'm working on:

King and creator,
What did he leave the heavens for?
The whole earth He owned,
Why should He give His life away?

On His hands don't you see?
White scars telling a story,
Look on His back,
Can you see the scourge marks?
Don't you understand what they are for?

What are these scars on His hands and feet?
Why is there a scar on His side?
Where did they come from?
Why are they there?

CHORUS:
If I told you would you believe,
That He bore their pain to free you?
Why can't you see that He really loves you?
Just trust in Him, He died for you,
Don't make His efforts vain,
He has a reason for the scars.

He came as told,
To the troubled world,
He came to save the day,
Came to save us from wrath.

Helpless and innocent,
A babe, intent,
Holy and pure,
Not as a warrior,
Not as a mighty man.

His skin was whole,
Unharmed, not a hole,
But it was only so long,
Before it would be covered with scars.

CHORUS

He was taken, tried, sentenced,
He was mocked, taunted,
By the people He came to save,
Could you do so much?

Hung upon a tree,
He did it for you and me,
The scourge fell on His back,
Nails driven into Him,
Could you have done so much?

It was finished as He died,
God's just wrath satisfied,
The price was paid,
Could you do so much?

CHORUS

He was laid in a tomb,
People sealed the room,
But death couldn't hold Him,
And He did as He said.

On the third day he rose,
Appeared to His people,
Gave them the mission,
To spread the word,
Let all people know.

He left to make a place for them,
One day He'll come again,
To gather His beloved,
All who know He has a reason for the scars.

CHORUS

Something Real

Posted in Songs

This is a song that I have just about finished, I think that I'm going to play around with it a little more, try to get it to rhyme maybe. So yeah, just posting it here since this that is what this blog is for. =D

I knew what was right,
And what was wrong,
I knew better,
But still I listened to lies,
I had been told,
I would regret it,
But I did it anyway,
I tried it.

Everyone tries it,
Everyone regrets it,
Everyone needs another chance.

CHORUS:
A chance to prove,
A chance to live,
Without the guilt and shame,
A chance to live for something real.

So yeah I tried it,
And liked it,
Then the guilt flooded in,
I knew it was so so wrong,
But I didn't confess,
I heeded more lies,
Enslaved to my sin,
I trudged on.

Everyone's gone on,
Everyone's felt bound,
Everyone wants another chance.

CHORUS

Then I saw the hope,
And I saw the truth,
I saw the boundless love, open arms,
I couldn't believe that,
I'd lived for so long like this,
I had been suffocating, drowning,
But now... I'm free.

Free to prove,
Free to live,
Without the guilt and shame,
Free to live for something real.
