I WANT TO KNOW YOU LORD


I want to know you lord
Why you chose to love me so
Despite by impunity
Forsake me not you did

You turned my night into day
Took away the darkness looming in my way
In weakness, I am made strong
You protect the afflicted and helpless

And provided everything he needs
Mercy, love, and kindness are of your name
By the day or by night, you walk by my side
Never did you turn your back on me

I am a living being today because of your grace
No other man touches my life like you did today
I am indebted to you the almighty lord
I am grateful for lifting my soul from damnation

The devil cast my soul into the hands of death
The enemies gathered around to mock me
Though helpless It seems on my strength 
With a mighty hand Lord, you delivered me

Exposed the devil and my enemies to shame
In my life made the impossible possible
Took me out of the enemy camp harmless
Because your grace is sufficient for me

But I am like a filthy rag in your presence 
Yet find me useful in your courtyard to serve
I want to know more of you Lord
To forever praise and exalt your holy name

A MOMENT OF SILENCE

In the heart is conceived
Thoughts of man debased
Divisive to an untimely end
As the Value of life is depreciated

Delusive to the doctrine of love and dignity
But a heart marred to hatred
Slaves to prejudice and pride
Wickedness, selfishness, lust for wealth

This is human flaws portend
Yet the world never give heed
In silence, take a moment to reflect
Is mankind walking on the right path?

I BELIEVE IN DREAMS



I believe in dreams
That true love can never end
But sometimes I am afraid
If I am good enough to have

The twilight of your smile
I can not take off my eyes
Hope I can give you true happiness
A heart that will love you for nothing less

Close your eyes and look into your heart
Hold my hands, let me walk you through the stars
I want your world forever to be bright
No miracles, just expressing the way I feel

The feelings I have for you is like raindrops
It is going to fill the cloud in your heart
And wet the tender flowers
Just so your world becomes beautiful
