Beautiful Sunset

Time to tell me the truth
To burden your mouth for what you say
No pieces of paper in the way
Cause I can't continue pretending to choose
These opposite sides on which we fall
The loving you later as if at all
No right minds could wrong be this many times

My memory is cruel
I'm queen of attention to details
Defending intentions if he fails
Until now, he told me her name
It sounded familiar in a way
I could have sworn I'd heard him say it ten thousand times
If only I had been listening

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always between the lines
Between the lines

I thought I thought I was ready to bleed
That we'd move from the shadows on the wall
And stand in the center of it all
Too late two choices to stay or to leave
Mine was so easy to uncover
He'd already left with the other
So I've learned to listen through silence

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me be
You and me always be

I tell myself all the words he surely meant to say
I'll talk until the conversation doesn't stay on
Wait for me I'm almost ready
When he meant let go

Leave unsaid unspoken
Eyes wide shut unopened
You and me
Always be
You and me
Always between the lines

You Are More

There's a girl in the corner

With tear stains on her eyes

From the places she's wandered

And the shame she can't hide

She says, "How did I get here?

I'm not who I once was.

And I'm crippled by the fear

That I've fallen too far to love"

But don't you know who you are,

What's been done for you?

Yeah don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices that you've made,

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,

You are more than the problems you create,

You've been remade.

Well she tries to believe it

That she's been given new life

But she can't shake the feeling

That it's not true tonight

She knows all the answers

And she's rehearsed all the lines

And so she'll try to do better

But then she's too weak to try

But don't you know who you are?

You are more than the choices that you've made,

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,

You are more than the problems you create,

You've been remade.

You are more than the choices that you've made,

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,

You are more than the problems you create,

You've been remade.

'Cause this is not about what you've done,

But what's been done for you.

This is not about where you've been,

But where your brokenness brings you to

This is not about what you feel,

But what He felt to forgive you,

And what He felt to make you loved.

You are more than the choices that you've made,

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,

You are more than the problems you create,

You've been remade.

You are more than the choices that you've made,

You are more than the sum of your past mistakes,

You are more than the problems you create,

You've been remade.

You've been remade

You've been remade.

You've been remade.

You've been remade.

Love is Patient

Lord,

Please grant me patience in waiting

for Your perfect timing.

Please remove the anxieties and fears.

Please help me trust

You.

In Him who bore my sin,

Amen

Tug of War

Yesterday you let go.

Dear Diary...

My life used to be an open book.

A vomiting encyclopedia spewing the data of my life.

Now my life is a diary kept under lock and key.

The words have come to life

but they have to be locked away.

Their reality is to painful to bear.

This is the Day

I never had a friend like you
This is the day
Your skin is white, your eyes are blue
This is the day

But the wind might change
I will still remain
I will always be there for you

These thoughts, they circle in my mind
This is the day
The demons I can't leave behind
This is the day

Don't be insecure
I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you

Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Stay! Stay!
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Stay! Stay!
Stay!

I have Provoked thy grace into my mind
This is the day
I have Provoked thy grace that are divine
This is the day

Don't be insecure
I'll be at your door
I will always be there for you

Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Stay! Stay!
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Stay! Stay!
Stay!

But the wind might change
I will still remain
I will still be here

But the wind might change
I will still remain
I will always be there for you

Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Stay! Stay!
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Faith will save you
Stay! Stay!
Stay!

Lord, please help my unbelief.

In less than 2 weeks...

In less than 2 weeks my whole life will be completely different...

I am going to be exhausted.

My friendships are going to be strained no matter how hard I try for them not to be.

I am going to be stressed.

I am going to be bearing the burdens of complete strangers.

I am going to be overwhelmed.

I am going to be learning things about myself that I would never want to know.

I am going to be dirt poor.

I am going to be a whole bunch of things I don't know yet.

I can't wait because I going to do this all for You.




"I consider that our present sufferings are not worth
