Of Modern Ambition

Room rings with incessant noise.
taels of gold; silver;
culture - drowned.
Who pays attention
when they know not their debtor?

Mind's a mess;
drifting in clouds outside these
four walls.
These walls can't hold my dreams,
yet by order of nature they will.

Don't leave my hopes
hanging.

I realise I avoid at great costs what I cannot handle.

It's too fragile to touch. Dare I?

Planetshakers - I Just Want You

More than a nice melody
More than the sweetest of words
This is love I have found
And with this love I am found

I just want You Jesus
I just want You my Lord
I just want You Jesus
I just want You

Never could I comprehend
The love You so freely gave
Never could I be worthy
But Your love covers all of my sin

There is no greater love than Yours
Nothing else could ever compare
And even if i search all the world
I will never find a love like Yours

From the Inside Out

A thousand times I've failed; still Your mercy remains.

There's no need to look outside your window;

Mmmm. I think she's rather pretty. Em too.

They can laugh all they want;

He gave her a flower, and that's more courage that I can ever gather.

Though moths lay rest upon a butterfly's flow'r;
A glimpse of blest brine pen an hour's diction.

Every Breath (Lord Take it All)

Here I am
Humbled before You
Splendid Lord
Glorious King

All I am
Is in Your very hand
I am nothing
Without You

How can I live (I can't live)
A single day without You
How can I breathe (I can't breathe)
When You're not by my side
No longer I
But Christ who lives within me
Every breath
Lord take it all

Every breath
All I am
Lord take it all

It felt like it had just begun, when--

I always get that empty feeling at the end of a great novel or movie. No one wants to admit that it's the end.

Lincoln Brewster - The Power of Your Name

Surely children weren't made for the streets
And fathers were not made to leave
Surely this isn't how it should be
Let Your Kingdom come

Surely nations were not made for war
Or the broken meant to be ignored
Surely this just can't be what You saw
Let Your Kingdom come
Here in my heart

I will live to carry your compassion
To love a world that's broken
To be Your hands and feet
I will give with the life that I've been given
And go beyond religion
To see the world be changed
By the power of Your Name

Surely life wasn't made to regret
And the lost were not made to forget
Surely faith without action is dead
Let Your Kingdom come
Lord break this heart

Jesus Your Name
Is a shelter for the hurting
Your Name
Is a refuge for the weak
Only Your Name
Can redeem the undeserving
Jesus Your Name
Holds everything I need

Cut through the water;

I will not glory in past achievements or in my present status, but I will glory in the future coming of the risen King.

It's raining outside;

Too many distractions, too little time. The air is thinning.

And I can't
Breathe without you
But I have to
Breathe without you
But I have to
