SEARCH





Search your heart, search your soul
There is a fountain flowing through
Life throws challenges our way
Favor and success delayed

Tap into heaven's resources
Let it rain and calm the nerves
Over the hills and the mountains
Joy floats and cloud the sky

There are no valiant in the grave
Only memories of people we love
Life must go on in the heart
As she sails through the storm

Only God can best restore what we've lost
His presence is a refuge for the weary heart
Search no more for worldly treasures
He has readily provided all our needs

Search your heart, search your soul
Can man stop the river from flowing
There is no searching of His understanding
God has many good and fruitful promises

SEARCHING FOR A HERO




Everyone is searching for a hero
Someone they can look up to
Sometimes we get discouraged
It turns out killing our dreams instead

We thought they possessed the things
In our lives could never had
We try so hard to be like them
But lost faith believing in one self

Its not a bad idea to want to have a role model
Someone you can always look up to
But we all have a unique strength inside
Hidden qualities waiting to be let out

First look inward the man in you
You've got to decide if he is apart of you
Together you can achieve any thing
Together you can fly and touch the sky

Heroes may come and go in our lives
They leave behind unforgettable memories
That stays with us the rest of our lives
But only you can best tell your stories

You can be bold and become stronger
Never you stop dreaming
With determination you can change the world
You can be the hero you are searching for

A PERFECT STRANGER






It wasn't a coincidence I met you tonight
You where walking down the street
I was just getting down from a cab
When your smile flashes between my eyes


Love sometimes make us look like a fool
I lost my mind immediately I set my eyes on you
For ten seconds I stood staring at you
Unconsciously I fell in love with you


It felt like I knew you before I met you
Your smile fills the sky around you
Maybe I must be out of my mind
For my thought is dancing around


Excuse me, do you live in heaven?
I swear you look so much like an angel
You are wearing my feelings tonight
I can't feel my heart beat 


I am not so blind,  I can now see love is cruel
You are gone and I feel miserable
No one knows what's like to fall in love with you
For you where a perfect stranger to me
