"Say The Words"

(You gotta say it, you gotta say it)

Solomon once wrote:
"Better is open rebuke, than hidden love"
So say the words...

Silence is golden but these are the words
That the world needs to hear
(brothers and sisters)
Terms of compassion will cause a reaction
As love drives them near

But still we choose to hide behind the face of pride
Pretending we are blind to the calling
This is my point and case, if hate can be erased
With such a simple phrase, why are we stalling?

[chorus]
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you"
Say the words I long to hear
Say the words, say the words, say "I love you"
Say the words I long to hear

Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it, say it
Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it

Some just assume we already know
Of the love that they feel
(brothers and sisters)
Some have a heartfelt emotion
But never the words to reveal

I think we all relate, so why are we afraid
To let our hearts convey what we're feeling?
There is a world in need with hungry souls to feed
And love can intercede if we're willing, so...

[repeat chorus]

Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it, say it
Ya gotta say it, ya gotta say it

(check this out)
The word love, well it was once overused
Back in the 70's the word was abused
But I refuse to let love be diluted
We can't allow physical lust to intrude it
Or pollute it cause there ain't no excuse
For the greatest gift of all to be abused
So choose to lose the pride that may tug at you
Don't be afraid of the words "I love you"

[repeat chorus]

Choose to lose the pride that may tug at you
Don't be afraid of the words "I love you"

Won't you say the words
Say the words
Say the words "I love you"
(You've got to say it)
Say the words
Say the words
Say them over and over
(Yeah, you've got to say it, say it)

Choose to lose the pride that may tug at you
Don't be afraid of the words "I love you"


"Listen To The Sound"

"Listen To The Sound"

Are you in over your head?
Are you on water so deep your drowning?
Do you think you've been left
And there is no on to feel your hurting
Well everybody has been there
And everybody's felt lost
If you're in over your head lift it up, lift it up... oh!

[Chorus]
Listen to the sound of hope
That's rising up over your old horizon
Listen to the sound, listen to the sound...
And listen to the sound of a new beginning of
This is where the old is ending
Listen to the sound, listen to the sound...

I hear you say your alone
I hear you sayin' that you'll never make it
I've got to tell you, you're wrong
Cuz' I have been down this path you're takin'
You'll never know what faith is
Till' you don't understand
Sometimes it takes the silence
To finally hear his plans...oh!

Amazing grace how sweet the sound
I once was lost but now I'm found [2x]

Listen to the sound of hope
That's rising up over your old horizon
Listen to the sound, listen to the sound...
And listen to the sound of a new beginning of
This is where the old is ending
Listen to the sound, listen to the sound...oh!

His grace is reaching for us
His grace is reaching out
Listen to the sound, listen to the sound
Wherever you are... [2x]

"Don't Let Go"

This is a fun song reminding us to hold on to what we believe. "Don't Let Go" by Je'Kob.

The only link to this song I could find is on Youtube and is a bunch of random people dancing and no lyrics to read while listening. My suggestion, click here to listen, but with another tab, return to this blog to read the lyrics while you do so.

"Don't Let Go" by Je'Kob

I'm not gonna cry tonight, uh, I'm gonna be all right, all right
Even if I die tonight, it's gonna be all right, all right
'Cause I know where I'm going when I leave this crazy place
And I go with a smile upon my face, smile upon my face, yeah

'Cause we all right and we okay, and we gonna make it through another day
Just hold on to what you believe
Don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go
Don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go
Don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go, don't let go

Even on a rainy day, uh, I'm gonna be all right, all right
When the sun has gone away, it's gonna be all right, all right
'Cause I know where I'm going when I leave this crazy place
And I go with a smile upon my face, smile upon my face, yeah

'Cause we all right and we okay, and we gonna make it through another day

"Beautiful"

I like the message of this song, which is gratitude for the skin we're in and loving ourselves for who we are. What a great message! "Beautiful" by Group 1 Crew

Click here to listen.

"Beautiful"


La, la, oh, oh, oh, oh
Ay, yo, B, yeah
Let these people know what beautiful really means

I've been thinking 'bout the way I see myself and I
Just can't understand why I say
All those hurtful things about myself, my insecurities
They don't seem to just go away

And it's hard for me to understand you loving me
Through every mistake that I make
I'm so glad that you will never leave, keep reminding me
How you see me every day that I wake

I'm so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, uh, oh, uh, oh
I'm so beautiful, so natural, not typical
I'm so beautiful, there's nobody else made like me
I'm so B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L, that's me

Yes, you are, yes, you are, yes, you are
Yes, you are, yes, you are, yes, you are

I love the way you made my smile 'cause it fits my face
It's so wonderful, unbelievable
And every color in my eye is just the perfect shade
It's so incredible, indescribable

Now you may think I'm not a perfect size or overweight
But I'm huggable, oh, so, lovable
Let's put away our silly thoughts and fall in love with life
'Cause there's so many reasons for you to smile

I'm so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, uh, oh, uh, oh
I'm so beautiful, so natural, not typical
I'm so beautiful, there's nobody else made like me
I'm so B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L, that's me
I'm so B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L, that's me

That's me, I like a girl who got some confidence
Uncommon but with common sense
Quick to help her mama with the groceries and condiments
Doesn't live fast and loves life and gives compliments
Someone who I can ask about life and knows what time it is

Never late to meet me even though I am
Give her some sorry excuse but she always understands
She can take me in some sports, basketball was her thang
But at night she throws some heels on and her love is still the same

Don't need a cover girl or Maybelline or maybe I lean
A 'lil closer to the side of viewing her as a queen
And overthrows my life with the sense of humor she brings
I'd give my life away to hear her sing, to hear her sing

I'm so beautiful, beautiful, beautiful, uh, oh, uh, oh
(I'm so beautiful)
I'm so beautiful, so natural, not typical
I'm so beautiful, there's nobody else made like me
I'm so B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L, that's me
I'm so B-E-A-U-T-I-F-U-L, that's me

(Beautiful)
I'm so beautiful
(Beautiful)
You're so beautiful
(Beautiful)
Woah, woah, ooh
(Beautiful)

This goes out to all my ladies out there
You're beautiful
So don't be afraid to be you
Let your hair down, put your smile on

You're beautiful, you're beautiful
Yeah, hmm

"In Wonder"

In light of Thanksgiving around the corner, I'm choosing to post this song again because it reminds me of all that I have to be grateful for. "In Wonder" by Newsboys.

"In Wonder" by Newsboys


So much wonder
Carved in your coral seas
So much wonder
Shaded by ancient trees
I consider all that Your hands have made
Every newborn's eyes, every new sunrise
No power can tame your presence
No light can match your radiance

[Chorus]
Let all creation sing in wonder
Every sea, every creature, every star
You opened up my eyes to wonder
What a vision, what a wonder You are

Such a wonder
Ordering time and tide
Such a wonder
Bridging the great divide
I consider all that you had, all you gave
All that you endured
From this rebel world

What a wondrous cross you chose to bear
What a wonder You would even care

[Repeat Chorus]

Let every rock cry out
Let every knee bow down
You opened up my heart to wonder
What a love, what a wonder you are

No power can tame your presence
No light can match your radiance

Such a wonder...
Such a wonder...

[Repeat Chorus]

Let every rock cry out
Let every knee bow down
You opened up my heart to wonder
What a love, what a wonder you are

"Not Alone"

I love this mellow and pretty song. A reminder that we are never alone, even and especially when life is tough. "Not Alone" by Benjah feat. Rachael Lampa. Some of the lyrics, in italics, were difficult for me to understand, so I typed in my best guess. If you know what they are, PLEASE let me know. Thanks.

"Not Alone"

Does anybody see, does anybody care
Or am I standin' here alone
Happens every day, tears and pain
So much sufferin'
I see it in your eyes now, yeah
Sometimes I want to take their place
I can't save them all, no
I can show the way to your savin' grace

[Chorus]
I feel it in my soul, I feel it and I know
That we are not alone, no we are not alone
Destruction all around, the world is crumbling down
And we are not alone, no we are not alone

I know it's getting hard but we gotta hold on
Even when we don't feel very strong
We can not lose heart though we're wastin' away
Cause the way we're feeling
Counting all our joy now, yeah
When we face our trials
Broken bones feel stronger
When we plant and depend on the living water

Chorus

Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh

[Bridge]
We're supposed to say we're doin' good
Even when our life's a mess
We're scared to care and really love
Cause we feel our heart's been broken
I gotta tell it like it is, and sometimes my life's a mess
Can't be scared to really love
Cause I know You're greater

Chorus

Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh, whoa oh oh oh





Amazing Life

"Amazing Life" by Britt Nicole is a fun song.

Click to listen.

It's a b, b, beautiful world we've been given
From the top of the sky to the ocean
I'll never understand it all
It must be supernatural

It's a m, m, magical thing a starry night
Feel, feel so small under a billion lights
I'll never understand it all
It must be supernatural

Amazing life
Amazing life

Flying higher than I've ever dreamed
From the top of the world I could scream

Amazing life
Amazing life

It's a colorful, colorful world painted so bright
Gonna walk on air gonna take flight
I'll never understand it all
It must be supernatural

I wanna drink, drink every drop of sunshine
Gotta smile on my face, I won't apologize

I'll never understand it all
Must be supernatural

Amazing life
Amazing life

Flying higher than I ever dreamed
From the top of the world I could scream

Amazing life
Amazing life

Your the burning in my heart that never dies
Without you here my world is black and white

Like a show without a stage
Like a storm without the rain

You're the one I can't replace
Need You by my side
Need You by my side

//Amazing life
Amazing life//

Amazing life
Amazing life

Flying higher than I've ever dreamed
From the top of the world I could scream

Amazing life
Amazing life

Socially Acceptable

"Socially Acceptable" by DC Talk is an awesome song about "It was taboo back then but today ya say, "What the hey."

And if you like the nineties music, this is the song for you.

"Socially Acceptable"

(It's okay, it's all right)

It's okay, it's alright
Yeah, here we go
dcT is in the house boy
It's okay, it's alright

Whatcha thinking, doing the things you do
Whose opinion are ya listening to?
Justifying, you turn it all to gray
Synchronizing to society's ways

Society has gotten to be all outta whack
And don't bother with excuses whether white or black
To blame it on a color won't get a result
Because history reveals to me how ethics were lost
In reality our decency has taken a plunge
"In God We Trust" is an American pun
Funny how it happened so suddenly
Hey yo fellas, kick the melody...

[chorus]
Socially acceptable, it's okay, it's all right
Socially acceptable, it's okay, to loose sight
Socially acceptable

Times are changing, when morals in decay
Human rights have made the wrong okay
Something's missing, and if you're asking me
I think that something is the G-O-D

To label wrong or right by the people's sight
Is like going to a loser to ask advice
And by basing your plans
On another man's way of living life
Is creating a brand of ethics
Sure to be missing the punch
No count morals that are out to lunch
They're sliding away cause everything is okay
It was taboo back then but today ya say, "What the hey"

[repeat chorus]

Yeah, yeah, yeah
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on
Here we go, here we go
A come on, a come on

Everybody's doin' it
Who's doin' it
Everybody's doin' it
Yo, who's doin' it
Everybody's doin' it
Who's doin' it
Everybody's doin' it
Yo, yo, yo, who's doin' it
Ohhhh, alright
Ohhhh, come on

[bridge]
We gotta back to the principles found in the Word
A little G-O-D could be society's cure
From the state that we're in cause again we're slipping
So pray for America 'cause time is ticking

[repeat chorus 2x]

socially respectable

Don't Wait

"Don't Wait" by Addison Road is a great song about not waiting for things because you never know what tomorrow will bring. Don't wait to love. Don't wait to live. Don't wait to laugh. :)

Today I lost a friend of mine
I never even got to say goodbye
I thought we had time to burn
But life is short
You only get one turn

Whoa,gone before you know
Whoa,so make the most

We're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
So now is the time
Don't wait
Don't wait
Gotta live today
Gotta live today
Today


So here I am wide awake
Blinded by a brand new day
Every breath given to me
Is a gift I want to redeem

Whoa,the minutes they unwind
Whoa,so I gotta make the time

Cause we're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
So now is the time
Don't wait
Don't wait

We're not indestructible
Our lives are all predictable
It can turn on a dime
On a dime
Don't wait
Don't wait

In the blink of an eye
You snap and time goes by
Time goes by

We'll wonder where it all went
If we forget
So don't forget

We're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
So now is the time
Don't wait
Don't wait

We're not indestructible
Our lives are unpredictable
It can turn on a dime
On a dime
So don't wait
Don't wait
Gotta live today
You gotta live today
Don't wait
Don't wait

Don't wait
Don't wait
You gotta live today

Made For Me

I love this song, "Made For Me" by tobyMac about his wife. It's so sweet I cry. It's from his new album, Eye on It.

Click here to listen.

Yea, here we go
1, 2, 3

She was 17 when she came on the scene
I saw her down the hall and felt that I was in a dream
See she was from the islands
Which had this brother smiling
Little did I know that I’d be on this mic and testifying

I love sunsets but she likes sunrise
I’m always running late and she’s always on time
But I like U2 and she like Coldplay
But something tells me we’re gonna be OK

‘Cause she was made for me
You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

And she was made for me
Made for me
And she was made for me
Made for me

Next chapter - we got hitched
And thought we’d have some kids
Looked up and now we got five little Jamaricans

I thank God every day
I’m blessed in a crazy way
My daughter said 2 to 8
This thing we got is cool like shade

I love sunsets but she likes sunrise
I’m always running late and she’s always on time
Well I like hip-hop and she likes raggae
So we meet in the middle with some Shattie

‘Cause she was made for me
You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

And she was made for me
Made for me
And she was made for me
Made for me

She is a flower, You are the rain
She gets more beautiful with every passing day
She is my flower and You are the sun
She gets more beautiful because of how You love
How You love

I get to call her mine
I get to call her mine, oh my

See she like slow days and I like fast days
She into books, I’m into movies
She made straight As
Well I got white skin and she got brown skin
But milk and coffee’s always been a beautiful blend

She was made for me
When You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

She was made for me
When You gave ‘er to me
I said I’d hold on loose but I so wanna squeeze you
Just right for me and for the life of me
I can’t believe I get to call her mine

And she was made for me
She was made, she was made
Made for me
And she was made for me
She was made, she was made
Made for me

She was made, she was made for me (I get to call her mine)
She was made, she was made for me (I get to call her mine, oh my)

"Stand in the Rain" by Superchick.

She never slows down.
She doesn't know why but she knows that when she's all alone, feels like its all coming down
She won't turn around
The shadows are long and she fears if she cries that first tear, the tears will not stop raining down

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

She won't make a sound
Alone in this fight with herself and the fears whispering if she stands she'll fall down
She wants to be found
The only way out is through everything she's running from wants to give up and lie down.

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain

So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
Stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found

[CHORUS]
So stand in the rain
Stand your ground
Stand up when it's all crashing down
You stand through the pain
You won't drown
And one day, whats lost can be found
You stand in the rain


"Love Somebody"

This is a fun song about loving others. "Love Somebody" by Mandisa feat. TobyMac. (Those two are an awesome combination.)

Click to listen and dance.


"Love Somebody"


I need a minute, can we get some time?
We both know we don't see eye to eye
I know it's hard on us when we disagree
But don't you think that you and me could take a chance?

And love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

I had a dream just the other day
With blinded eyes we let real love guide the way
Nobody felt we had to look the same or talk the game
We found true beauty and we weren't afraid to go ahead

And love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to
Love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
But she gave me eight to flow and translate
Recalibrate, end all debates

'Cause this bomb is about to drop, y'all
Diverse City just can't be stopped
So here we go, come, check the show
Come one, come all, come overflow with love

Yeah, love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to

Love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Go ahead and love somebody, somebody needs you
You could be the one to
Love somebody, take a chance and pass it on
You could be the one to love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

Come on, if Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme

If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme
If Mandisa ain't changed your mind
It oughta be flipped by the end of this rhyme

You Found Me lyricsI saw three a.m. come and go again
Another sleepless night, thanks to living my own way
All my great ideas, I've regretted most of them
But that was back long before the day

When I saw a flash of light and I heard the sound
Of a voice like thunder shake the ground
It was the first time I remember ever feeling my heartbeat
And the arms that gripped me felt like grace
And I realized in their embrace
To be held so tight
I've never felt so free
Also know as the day that you found me
[. From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/b/big-daddy-weave-lyrics/you-found-me-lyrics.html .]

My whole life has changed ever since the day You came
The way I see, the things I want, it's everything
Some may call it strange, I don't care what people say
I knew You were the only way

I've never known a love like this
You've captured my heart and You brought the sweetest
Peace to my life, brought me into the light
Now I'm all Yours, Jesus, draw me into You

I don't think that I could ever be the same
Who would want to be anyway

"Atmosphere"

THis is one of my new favorite songs. "Atmosphere" by TobyMac feat. DC Talk, so it's a little remeniscint of "Between You And Me" by DC Talk. I love the smooth jazzy sound and awesome lyrics about encouragement in hard times.

"Atmoshpere" by TobyMac feat. DC Talk.

I know you keep a journal and every page is rippled
From the tears that you cry, ain't no meanin' to your scribble
Cause words can't describe what you've been feelin' inside
It's like thousand foot walls, and they're still on the rise
But look up to a beautiful sound
And see for yourself you're not that far down
And know this, I cannot love a little
My promise to you is unconditional

And I'll keep the light on, baby
Just keep the course, you can weather the storm
I'll keep the light on, baby
You've come this far, don't you ever lose heart, now

Just turn around and I'll be there
I'm moving into your atmosphere
Just turn around and I'll be there
I'm moving into your atmosphere

I know you're all alone in a crowd full of friends
I can see it in your eyes that your fadin' again
Checking out, moving into your hole
Where the light can't touch any part of your soul
But hold up and let the river rush in
You can turn around and start livin' again
Cause your life is a beautiful bloom
In the image of the one that created you

I'll be there

Said I'll be there, said I'll be there
Said I'll be there always, forever

"True Beauty"

I just heard this song and I rather like it. "True Beauty" by Mandisa. It's a good reminder that true beauty comes from that inner glow within, not from Mabeline. :)

Do You think that a California girl is supposed to have curls and wear a jean size 3?
All the curves in all the right places, spray tanned faces like on TV?
And we read in the gospel of Vogue that we're all supposed to dress and move and be
Visions of perfection
Such a misconception
'Cause the real connection is deeper than the eye can see

Chorus:
What's inside of you
What's inside of me
The hands that made the moon and the stars
The mountains and the seas
Made you wonderful, beautiful, marvelously
Let the whole world see your
True beauty

Don't know much about Dolce and Gabbana
Seems like a lot of drama to me
And you can keep all your red high heels
And open-toed shoes - I'm good in my bare feet
Lets get down to the nitty gritty
Enough "S** and the City"
What about purity?
Skin is just the surface
The passion and the purpose that's burning down inside us
Is really what we need to see

Chorus

Doesn't come in a bottle, doesn't come in a box
You can't spray it on, you can't wash it off
You can't nip and tuck, you can't sew it up
So don't waste your time
It's the love in your heart, the peace in your soul
The hope in your smile lets the whole world know
This little light - you gotta let it shine

Chorusx2 I just heard this song and I rather like it. "True Beauty"

"Only The World"

[Verse 1:]
Been a hard one, Been a bad one
Been a tough one, Been a sad one
It's been one of those days that keeps chipping away at my heart
Nothing new here, It's what I do here
It's a stereotypical day, in the life
I'm surrounded by all of the pain and the strife
But I know it's alright, woah oh

[Chorus:]
Cause it's only the world I'm living in
It's only today I've been given

Cause even when my days in the world are done
There's gonna be so much more than only the world for me

"Joy" by Newsboys

You give me joy that's unspeakable
And I like it, And I like it
Your love for me is irresistible
I can't fight it, I can't fight it

If life is water, I was dry as Tuscon dirt
If it's a gamble, I'd already lost my shirt
If it's a journey, I was dazed without a clue
I flipped a 'U' back to the first love I ever knew

CHORUS
You give me joy that's unspeakable
And I like it, And I like it
Your love for me is irresistible
I can't fight it, I can't fight it
You carried the cross and took my shame
I believe it, I believe it
You shine Your light of amazing grace
I recieve it, I receive it

If life's a battle, the invasion is complete
If it's a rhythm, I have found the perfect beat
If it's a renaissance, I've got a new birthday
The world don't give it
And the world can't take it away

CHORUS

I'm bowed and broken, everything's new
All that I need, You're like water to seed
And how Your love, rights everything wrong
And in my weakness
You're ever stronger, You're pulling me back
Where I belong

CHORUS

Get behind me I’m coming through
I’m armed and dangerous
I’m like an army that’s fed up with you
Commanding you must
Get out my way and go back
To where you came from
Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!

I’m sick and tired of all you’re lies
Nothing you say could make me
Agree with you, I know the truth
Nothing you do could break me
You just don’t know who your messing with
I’m a warrior

Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal

Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal

The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
You never even tried
I’m telling you, No More!

All your attempts are only making me stronger
Your strategy ain’t fooling me any longer
I see you loud and clear
You can’t hide, but you can run
Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!

You best be leaving now
cause I’m about to bring some glory
You lose, and thanks again
for giving me an awesome story
You just don’t know who you’re messing with
I’m a warrior
Oh! No! I’m telling you no more!

Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal
Oh! Go! I’m telling you, no more!
The weapons of my warfare
They are not carnal

The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
You never even tried
I’m telling you, No More

I’m not afraid cause I’m not alone
So be on your way
There’s nothing here for you
The battle’s already won
You ain’t worth my time
I ain’t messing with you no more
You’ve been defeated under my feet
Crushed on the floor
You ain’t done nothing
But make me a better warrior!
So I’m telling you, no more!
The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
you never even tried
I’m telling you, No More!

The victory is mine
I’m taking back everything at least seven times
I raise my sword and make you wish
You never even tried
I’m telling you, No More!

"Between You and Me"

"Between You And Me"

Sorrow is a lonely feeling
Unsettled is a painful place
I've lived with both
For far too long now
Since we've parted ways

I've been wrestling
With my conscience
And I found myself to blame
If there's to be any resolution
I've got to peel my pride away

Just between You and me
I've got something to say
Wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down

Just between You and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom now

Just between You and me
I've got something to say

If confession is the road to healing
Forgiveness is the promised land, oh
I'm reaching out in my conviction
I'm longing to make amends, yeah

So I'm sorry for
The words I've spoken
For I've betrayed a friend
We've got a love
That's worth preserving
And a bond I will defend

Just between you and me
I've got something to say
Wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down

Just between You and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom

Just between You and me
I've got something to say

In my pursuit of God
I thirst for holiness
As I approach the Son
I must consider this

Offenses unresolved
Will keep me from the throne
Before I go to Him
My wrong must be atoned

If there's to be any resolution
I've got to peel this pride away
Ooh, whoa, whoa, whoa

Just between You and me
I've got something to say
Wanna get it straight
Before the sun goes down

Just between you and me
Confession needs to be made
Recompense is my way to freedom

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say
So let me say it today

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say
Confession needs to be made

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say
Confession needs to be made

It's my way to freedom
It's my way to freedom
I've got something to say

This is a great song about loving who you are. "Gold" by Britt Nicole.

Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

You were walking on the moon, now you're feeling low
What they said wasn't true, you're beautiful
Sticks and stones break your bones, I know what you're feeling
Words like those won't steal your glow, you're one in a million

This, this is for all the girls, and boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine
From the inside it shows, you're worth more than gold
(gold gold, you're gold)
You're worth more than gold
(gold gold you're gold)

Well everybody keeps score, afraid you're gonna lose
Just ignore they don't know the real you
All the rain in the sky can't put out your fire
Of all the stars out tonight, you shine brighter

This, this is for all the girls, and boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high, it's your time to shine
From the inside it shows, you're worth more than gold
(gold gold, you're gold)
You're worth more than gold
(gold gold you're gold)

So don't let anybody tell you that you're not loved
And don't let anybody tell you that you're not enough
Yeah there are days that we all feel like we are messed up
But the truth is that we're all diamonds in the rough
So don't be ashamed to wear your crown
You're a king you're a queen inside and out
You glow like the moon, you shine like the stars
This is for you, wherever you are

Oh, oh, yeah, yeah, oh, oh,
You're gold

This, this is for all the girls, and boys all over the world
Whatever you've been told, you're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high,
It's your time to shine
From the inside it shows, you're worth more than gold
(gold gold, you're gold)
You're worth more than gold
(gold gold you're gold)

So don't be ashamed to wear your crown
You're a king you're a queen inside and out

"Walls"

This is a fun song. "Walls" by Manic Drive

Click here to listen.

We are one but we're not the same
For a thousand years we've played this game And the tension rises up Ya the passion's given up

So our God reaches to unite
While amongst ourselves we fight
And I'm sick of wasting time
Ya I got something on my mind

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

No you can never stop it from coming
Those against me can take off running
Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down
Cause the truth that has been said
Will unite us once again
Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down

Can we practice what we preach
And turn these fists into hands that reach Embrace ourselves with open arms Turn this hate into loving heart

What goes up, must come down
So I'll march towards this town
And undo what has been done
Tear down these bricks and stones one by one

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

So lift your hands, move your feet
Get your, get yourself ready
Lift your flags, hit the streets
And charge

No you can never stop it from coming
Those against me can take off running
Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down
Cause the truth that has been said
Will unite us once again

Cause there's something going down
Ya these walls are coming down
No you can never stop it from coming
No you can never stop

"Hey Devil" by TobyMac

She dialed him about 6:00 PM
She checked her hair in the mirror
And she stepped through the door like this
Three flights down
And she's out on the streets
Walking brick sidewalks lined in grey concrete

He saw her coming from a few blocks away
Red scarf in the wind as it started to rain a bit
Shuffled down the boulevard
Cut me like a deck of cards
I thought you had me
You thought that you had me

But hey, Devil, go on
Get your junk out of here
I don't need you
I don't need you
Hey, Devil, go on
Get your junk out of here
I don't need you
So move on

I stepped to it like I knew what I was doing
I'm a moth
You're the flame
Never knew you'd be my ruin
In the blink of an eye
Element of surprise
Got my feet on the earth
But my face to the sky

Shuffled down the boulevard
Cut me like a deck of cards
I thought you had me
You thought you had me
Now the plot is thickening
Pushing deep under my skin
I thought you had me
You that that you had me

You're a beauty and A beast
You're the pressure never cease
You're the straight other side
And they say you never sleep

Lyrics:

Wave away my yesterday
'Cause I'm leaving it behind me.
Hello sunshine, come what may.
I feel something new inside me.
I hear the birds singing
Now my alarms ringing
Get up, get up
Hey!

It's a good morning!
Wake up to a brand new day
This Morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good Morning,
You give me strength,
You give me just what I need
And I can feel the hope that's rising in me.
It's a good morning

Slow down, breathe in,
Don't move ahead
I'm just living in this moment
I've got my arms raised, un-phased
Jump out of bed
Gotta get this party going
I went to bed dreaming,
You woke me up singing
Get up, get up, hey

It's a good morning!
Wake up to a brand new day
This Morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good Morning,
You give me strength,
You give me just what I need
And I can feel the hope that's rising up in me.
It's a good morning

Now I'm smiling, and I'm kissing all my worries good-bye
Got the feeling, if I spread my wings I might even fly
You are my truth, my way
Give me the strength to say
Get up, get up, get up
Cause it's a good morning

Mr. Mac to the mic
[Toby Mac:]
Hey, top of the morning to you 'disa
You smoothie, me ice cold pizza
Cafe au lait, latte dah
You do the zumba, but I do not
Give me like half a marathon,
I'll give you the gospel of St. John.
Hits me like a wake-up bomb
Cause' we both know that His mercy flows,
In the morning.

Wake up to a brand new day
This Morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good Morning,
You give me strength,
You give me just what I need
I can feel the hope that's rising up in me.
It's a good morning
Wake up to a brand new day
This Morning,
I'm stepping, stepping on my way
Good Morning,
You give me strength you give me just what I need
I can feel the hope that's rising up in me.
It's a good morning

[Toby Mac:]
Top of the morning to you 'disa
Hey, Top of the morning to you girl
To-to-top of the morning to you 'disa
Morning little Miss Sunshine.
[Spoken:]
Man, you morning people.
No, I'm serious.

"F-I-R-E" by PressPlay

Let’s Get the Fire Started! Let’s Get the Fire Started! Come on!
There’s something in the atmosphere
It’s giving us something different here
I think it’s time that we ignite
Bring the blaze into the light
Raise your torch a - little higher
Scream it out a - little louder
In all we see – in all we do – the choice is up to me and you
Can you feel it in this song –everyone stop, drop, and roll – give it all up up control  ohoh, ohoh
Can you feel it in your heart – something is about to start – can you see the sparks – ohoh ohoh
Ohohohoh ohohohoh ohohoh let’s start a F-I-R-E
Ohohohoh ohohohoh ohohoh let’s start a F-I-R-E
Let’s Go!
There’s something burning to the bone
Right out into the danger zone
Running into the unknown
Reaching those that feel alone
Raise your torches – lift ‘em higher
Scream it out a - little louder
In all we see – in all we do – the choice is up to me and you
Ooooooo
Can you feel it in this song –everyone stop, drop, and roll – give it all up up control
Can you feel it in your heart – something is about to start – can you see the sparks – ohoh ohoh
Ohohohoh ohohohoh ohohoh let’s start a F-I-R-E
Ohohohoh ohohohoh ohohoh let’s start a F-I-R-E
(Rap)
Burning like a flammable
Call my soul an animal
I can’t help but let this ba-ba-beat move like I’m outta’ control
Get a little bit of funk with a whole lotta’ heat
Burn up the track with a little bit of me
I spit fire – you just breathe – I desire – you just need
If the roof’s on fire - better believe I ain’t gonna pray for rain
I’m gonna yell – let it go with the flame – better yet, Im’ma have to get the propane
I want fire – you like candles – we bring something that you really can’t handle
Spirit light my heart and burn Your love and bring this world to shambles
Can you feel it in this song –everyone stop, drop, and roll – give it all up up control
Can you feel it in your heart – something is about to start – can you see the sparks – ohoh ohoh
Ohohohoh ohohohoh ohohoh let’s start a F-I-R-E
Ohohohoh ohohohoh ohohoh let’s start a F-I-R-E
Time to light the fire…

Lyrics to "Life" by Beckah Shae

Here I go, I'm on my way with my love glasses on, glasses on
Got my love glasses on
Here I go, I'm on my way, I see more clearly and I feel strong.

More more more more more, there's got to be so much more to this life
Oh, My my my my heart is racing just to know what it is like

More than I could expect, anticipate, or imagine
I'm willing to believe amazing things are still happening

I'm gonna live the rich life, the full and blessed life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!
I'm gonna live the good life, beautiful and glorious life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!

Here I go again on my mission to give it all, give it all
Cause I'm aware that what I share will come back with good measure
Pressed down, shaken together and runnin over

Life life life life life is whatever I receive it to be
Whoa, Why why why why not jump over doubt and dive into belief?

More than I could expect, anticipate, or imagine
I'm willing to believe amazing things are still happening
[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsfreak.com/b/beckah+shae/life_20896385.html ]
I'm gonna live the rich life, the full and blessed life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!
I'm gonna live the good life, beautiful and glorious life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!

No eye has seen, nor ear has heard
My faith is breathing only because I hear these words
Exceeding and abundantly more than we could even ask or think
Surpassing all human understanding I've been given this amazing peace

I'm gonna live the rich life, the full and blessed life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!
I'm gonna live the good life, beautiful and glorious life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!

I'm gonna live the rich life, the full and blessed life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!
I'm gonna live the good life, beautiful and glorious life
So if y'all know what I mean, put your hands up and declare with me
Love in full effect, Chaim!

I Wanna Know You Like That" by Anthem Lights

 
(I wanna know)

Just today
I heard a story of a pastor far away
Who watched his church walls fall with the rain
With tears in his eyes
Here is what he had say
"Let's reach the ones that will rebuild this place"

I wanna know You like that
To live, to love
With everything I am
To give it all
I wanna know You like that
To become
A man after Your heart
And not look back
I wanna know You like that

I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know...

Like David did
He lived a life this world cannot forget
He'd fall so hard then get back up again
Then face the giant knowing he would win
Because You were with him
 
I wanna know You like that
To live, to love
With everything I am
To give it all
I wanna know You like that
To become
A man after Your heart
And not look back
I wanna know You like that

With every breath I breathe
I wanna help others see
And I will never stop
'Til everybody's singing

With every breath I breathe
I wanna help others see
And I will never stop
'Til everybody's singing

I wanna know You like that
To live, to love
With everything I am
To give it all
I wanna know You like that
To become
A man after Your heart
And not look back

I wanna know You like that
To live, to love
With everything I am
I'll give it all
I wanna know You like that
Lord, to become
A man after Your heart
And not look back
I wanna know You like that

I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know You like that

I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know, I wanna know
I wanna know You like that

"More Beautiful You"

This song has wonderful lyrics. If all women could listen to this song and absorb the lyrics, our world would be a different place. "More Beautiful You" by Jonny Diaz.

I would love for Mr. Diaz to write another couple versus to this song. The third verse could say something like,

"Tired mom, thirty-nine tiny lines around her eyes,
Wonders how her time got away,
Another dinner over and more homework to be done
And there's never a minute to play,

Well tired mom, thirty-nine I wish that you could see,
What others around you know,
That sacrifice and love and time are best when given by you
And their love is felt more than shown"

And the fourth verse could say something about the soft and wrinkled, snuggliness and wisdom of a grandma and all the people who love her, not for her beauty, but for her love. Just my wheels spinning. :)

"More Beautiful You"  by Jonny Diaz

Little girl fourteen flipping through a magazine
Says she wants to look that way
But her hair isn't straight, her body isn't fake
And she's always felt overweight

Well, little girl fourteen I wish that you could see
That beauty is within your heart
And you were made with such care, your skin, your body and your hair
Are perfect just the way they are

There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies, disguises and hoops, they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you

Little girl twenty one the things that you've already done
Anything to get ahead
And you say you've got a man but He's got another plan
Only wants what you will do instead

Well, little girl twenty one you never thought that this would come
You starve yourself to play the part
But I can promise you there's a man whose love is true
And He'll treat you like the jewel you are

There could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies, disguises and hoops, they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you, more beautiful you

So turn around you're not too far
To back away be who you are
To change your path go another way
It's not too late, you can be saved
If you feel depressed with past regrets
The shameful nights hope to forget
Can disappear, they can all be washed away

By the one who's strong, can right your wrongs
Can rid your fears dry, all your tears
And change the way you look at this big world
He will take your dark distorted view
And with His light, He will show you truth
And again you'll see through the eyes of a little girl

That there could never be a more beautiful you
Don't buy the lies, disguises and hoops, they make you jump through
You were made to fill a purpose that only you could do
So there could never be a more beautiful you
There could never be a more beautiful you

"In Wonder" by Newsboys


So much wonder
Carved in your coral seas
So much wonder
Shaded by ancient trees
I consider all that Your hands have made
Every newborn's eyes, every new sunrise
No power can tame your presence
No light can match your radiance

[Chorus]
Let all creation sing in wonder
Every sea, every creature, every star
You opened up my eyes to wonder
What a vision, what a wonder You are

Such a wonder
Ordering time and tide
Such a wonder
Bridging the great divide
I consider all that you had, all you gave
All that you endured
From this rebel world

What a wondrous cross you chose to bear
What a wonder You would even care

[Repeat Chorus]

Let every rock cry out
Let every knee bow down
You opened up my heart to wonder
What a love, what a wonder you are

No power can tame your presence
No light can match your radiance

Such a wonder...
Such a wonder...

[Repeat Chorus]

Let every rock cry out
Let every knee bow down
You opened up my heart to wonder
What a love, what a wonder you are

"Love is a Beautiful Thing" by Group 1 Crew.

"Love Is A Beautiful Thing"

I never knew love could be like this
Powerful to protect me through the hard times that always exist
Make the hardest heart break down
Make a person who hates
Love himself so he can love those around
It takes love to forgive everyone
For all the things they've done
It's not easy but the freedom will come
We gotta learn why it is that we here
It's more than loving your life
It's making sure your life is loving your peers
Now if you could just catch my heart
Then we can part from the past
Let the days of the new love start because...

[Chorus:]
Love is a beautiful thing
That brings together people of every generation
Love can heal the pain of a broken world
It's got to start with us
And all it takes is love
Well I've got to make it clear
Love's the reason we are here
We're the object of affection from a God who holds us dear
And every where we go and everything that we do
Every time that we love
It's a reflection of You
Cause You are true love
So make it real in us

Stop holdin' on to the past
So we can bask in the rays
Let the days of the new love last
Because...

I didn't see it come
I didn't see it go
I never knew a love like this before
I'm so glad You found me
I didn't see it come
I didn't see it go
I never knew a love this before
I'm so glad You found me

They say all you need is love to bring about change
And all you need is one to ignite the flame
And if it's so, Group One would be the first to say
That we lightin' up this torch and running in loves name
We've searched around the globe and even looked to the stars
Tried to fill this void with money and nice cars
Took advice from songs in the top 10 charts
And never realized that it starts in our hearts
Because love...is a beautiful thing y'all

My Deliverer

I was so helpless
Where did the light go
I had no hope left
Deep down in my soul
I was watchin'
I was waitin'
I was prayin'
I was stayin' down on my knees
That's right where You found me

My Deliverer, You rescued me from all that held me captive
My Deliverer, You set me free
Now I'm alive and I can live
So every moment I will give you praise
My Deliverer
Ooh my Deliverer

There's no pretending
I can't do it myself
I'm so dependent
Lord I need Your help
I'll be watchin'
I'll be waitin'
I'll be prayin'
I'll be stayin' down on my knees
That's right where You'll find me

My Deliverer, You rescued me from all that held me captive
My Deliverer, You set me free
Now I'm alive and I can live
And every moment I will give you praise

La la la la la I need You
You know whatever I'm goin' through
I'll be watchin'
I'll be waitin'
I'll be prayin'
I'll be stayin' down on my knees
That's right where You'll find me

My Deliverer, You rescued me from all that held me captive
My Deliverer, You set me free
Now I can live
My Deliverer, I'm no longer captive
My Deliverer, You gave Your life that I might live
So every moment I will give you praise
Yeah my Deliverer
I'm gonna give You praise
I'm gonna give You praise
My Deliverer

Lyrics to "Your Light Shines" by The Advice









Starlight, shine bright and don't fade out with the city lights
Just let your soul shine and start to turn this dark to light
Cause we can show this world what it has not seen before
We can go and let our light shine a little more

Chorus:
Do you know what your light shines to?
You can't hide a light that shines through
Would you leave this world behind?
Will you find you find that your light still shines?

In time, we'll find one spark can cause another to ignite
Stand out, don't be shy--a single flame can light up the night
Cause we can show this world what it has not seen before
We can go and let our light shine a little more

Bridge:
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine
This little light of mine, I'm gonna let it shine

"Save Your Life" by Newsboys










Dear Friend,
You've been trying again
Doing whatever it takes to fit in
Falling for the lies of the world
You tell me you'd pay anything just to not hurt
What you want, I ain't got
What I have, can't be bought

There's something better I can give
If you surrender you will live
Just gotta taste and see it's good
I'd make you see it if I could
It's gonna save your life, it's gonna save your life

Dear Friend,
I'd be lying to you
If I told you this road that we travel would be smooth
Sometimes, you just wanna give up
Trying, and trying, but nothing is ever enough
Chasing things, but what for?
You've seen it all, but want more

There's something better I can give
If you surrender you will live
Just gotta taste and see it's good
I'd make you see it if I could
It's gonna save your life, it’s gonna save your life

I can see now you want this
And you know that you need this
Get away from the darkness
Get away from the darkness

I can see now you want this
And you know that you need this
Get away from the darkness
Gotta know who Christ is

There's something better I can give
If you surrender you will live
Just gotta taste and see it's good
I'd make you see it if I could
It's gonna save your life,
(There's nothing better than this life) It's gonna save your life
(There's nothing better than this life) It's gonna save your life
It's gonna, it's gonna save your life

"Changed Forever"

I love this song because of the awesome lyrics and the boomin' bass. I absolutely LOVE it. Enjoy. :)

"Changed Forever" by TobyMac with Nirva Ready

I'd heard Your name, but never seen Your face
Been touched before but never Your embrace
Had a soul to lose and the world to gain
But then You whispered my name

And I heard the truth but never from Your lips
Bought the lies of many counterfeits
Dreamed my dreams, but they were never in color
And I searched for You in many others

I was down for the count

(Chorus)
Then I saw Your face
Just a glimpse of Your face, and my whole world changed
Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever
Changed forever now
Then I saw Your face
One glimpse of Your face, it's a whole new game
Then I saw Your face, and I was changed forever
Yours forever now

If I could reach the stars, I could touch the sky
And if I spread my wings, I could almost fly
I had everything paper could buy
I was lost in my disguise

And if I played my role, they would feel my style
If I bought the night they would buy my smile
I've been runnin' this game for a million miles
Believin' my own lies

I was down, I was out

I was blinded by my selfish dreams
Everything ain't what it seems
From inside to out, there ain't no doubt
I been changed
Nothing short of satisfaction
Your love caused a change reaction
I can tell you this much I felt your touch
And I'm changed

When I was down for the count, Your love surrounded me
Blink of an eye
I saw my destiny

Change, rearranged 'cause I couldn't maintain
The heart it took to even stay in the game
One look in Your eyes even I realized
A fellow like me had been put down to size
To be built up in a better way, Your way
Yahweh ain't about to fade
Bombastic, ain't no way to mask it
I saw Your face, and my old ways blasted

I'm Yours forever now

"Walkin' Out"

I love music--especially in the Christian genre--that's why I'm posting some links to some of my favorite songs.

Today I'm spotlighting a song called "Walkin' Out" by Benjah. Some of the lyrics are gathered from places on the Net plus what I can figure out myself. If you find corrections that need to be made, please let me know.

Here's a link to the song on Youtube. :) Thanks for stopping by.

"Walkin' Out" by Benjah









Don't you know it's time to wake up?
Can't you feel the sun shining on us?
So many gifts in you and it comes from love, comes from love
It's knocking can't you hear
Open up now don't be scared
To win you have to fail throw one in the air, one in the air

So much inside you
You don't even realize
You need to let it shine
Walk out in His footsteps, only breathe light
Only look to the sky

Sometimes I feel like I'm just not enough
Gotta get on up, lean on Him, when you’re on the limb, on the limb

Sometimes I feel like I'm just not enough
Gotta get on up, lean on Him, when you’re on the limb, on the limb


Can’t you hear the clock tickin’
Don't waste your life like piper mentioned
Don't got lot so get kickin’
Just kick push, kick push
The only real way to know
Is to jump out the nest and pray you float
When you fall-He’ll pick you up, and go again, go again

So much inside you,
You don't even realize
You need to let it shine
Walk out in his footsteps, only breathe light
Only look to the sky

Sometimes I feel like, I'm just not enough
Gotta get on up, lean on Him, when you’re on the limb, on the limb
Sometimes I feel like, I'm just not enough
Gotta get on up, lean on Him, when you’re on the limb, on the limb

Oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa
Oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa

Gotta search yourself, gotta find what,
Gotta find what seeds inside ya
Don't rely on yourself,  He’ll hold you up, hold you up
If we’re all made in His image then we need that feel and create that finish
If it's really of the Lord then He’ll establish, it’ll happen

Sometimes I feel like, I'm just not enough
Gotta get on up, lean on Him, when you’re on the limb, on the limb
Sometimes I feel like, I'm just not enough
Gotta get on up, lean on Him, when you’re on the limb, on the limb


 Oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa
Oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa, oowhoa
