IN THE EYES OF THE MOON




In the eyes of the moon
I see the calmness of the sea
I see beauty of the world as the night drift
The street dark with tiny crystal sparkling up to the sky
I can feel the whispers of the wind
Death and spirit resting by the chapel
I see life everywhere and can sense love from afar
I see traffic on the bridge and hear the baby crying in the dark
I see it raining in Africa and the crop waiting for the sun
I see a ship sailing through the pacific from dusk to dawn
I see family praying and thankful to God for a graceful day
I see the flowers in the garden and a dog baking in the park
I see a couple walking home holding hands
I see the evening fading away,
My eyes deemed after a night long awake
For in my heart I treasure the world God created
And giving me eyes it beauty to see

IN THE SHADOW OF YOUR WING



In the shadow of your wing I am protected
A place where the burden of the world can't breach
A place where there is no illness or death
A place where everyone is happy and no regret
The condemned run into your fortress and his pardon
For you give man joy where hope is abandon

In the shadow of your wing I am protected
There is fullness of joy, salvation and love
A place I can find peace, relief and kindness
There are no hindrances, failures or sadness
For all the things of this world your glory can't surpass

In the shadow of your wing I am protected
Enemies all around me my success they can't suppress
If it's raining heavily in my life, there is a place my burden can be ease
Ashes and hell cannot contain my joy
For if the world slip, I shall not fall
In your presence forever I will rejoice

I BRUISE EASILY






I bruise easily for you
My heart has a soft spot for you
I can't fulfill my dreams without you
Only you make my world beautiful

I bruise easily for you
My heart can't look for someone new
I want to spend the rest of my life with you
Will always love you even if the world takes me for a fool

I bruise easily for you
Without you in my life there will be no dew
I wouldn't be sane if someday I lose you
In my dreams all I pray for is to be with you


I bruise easily for you
I don't mind if for you I caught flu
As long the cloud above me is blue
In my heart I will still be thankful

I bruise easily for you
I can't count my feelings for you
No amount of pressure can change the way I think about you
I hope you understand this much as I do

I bruise easily for you
Please don't take me for granted for been crazily in love with you
Please don't hate me for having a crush on you
For thoughts of you makes the world around me magical

I bruise easily for you
I can't seem to take my mind of you
In my heart I want to hug and never leave you
For I will forever love you
