| These are various songs I have written. I have guitar tabulature for each song, but I don't really feel like posting it. Enjoy. |
| Verse 1: Lord, I can't take this life Tell me how to set it all right Show me Your infinite love Shining on down from Heaven above Chorus: Show me Your mercy Show me Your grace Reveal Your wisdom And Your glorious face Be my light Be my guide When I stumble You're there by my side Verse 2: Father, this heart is longing for You Please show me what to do When it's getting too hard to bare I just remember how much You care Bridge: Instrumental |
| Show Me |
| Verse 1: I find my life in knots Tangled and caught in yours When you saved me I was crawling on all fours I surrender myself Sheltered from all harms Hold me close to you Forever in your arms Chorus: Secure from everything Listen to my heart sing So lost in you Are you lost in me too? Verse 2: Your eyes so blue Deep as crystal waters Shimmering in the light Radiance never falters I am lost at sea Devoid of all alarms Roaring with passion Forever in your arms Bridge: I want to spend forever Forever in your arms |
| Forever in Your Arms |
| Verse 1: Trapped inside this mind of mine Looking, scouring for some sign Memories replay on into the night My bitterest thoughts brought to light Chorus: The pain inside is more than I can take Heart cleaved in two for love's sweet sake I search for my answers in You Can't even find the comfort I once knew Verse 2: All I held dear is slipping away Leaving me dismal as the day Tears roll down my blank face Remembering our times of love and grace Verse 3: Your face surrounds my waking dreams Nothing else matters, so it seems Somehow I'm always here alone Feeling this pain I've always known |
| Memory Trap |
| Verse 1: I've tried to be so strong But you'd been gone so long To fill this void inside of me Full of things I shouldn't be The tears spring hard and bitter Heart broken, strewn with litter Without you I was all but nothing Now I can't help but sing, Chorus: "Welcome home to where you belong Come back to me and sing this song I love you more than you'll ever know Honey, please, just don't go" Verse 2: You're all I ever think about I need you without a doubt You make life worth everything And numb away its painful sting Hold me in your heart so fine You know you're always in mine Every passing minute of the day All I wanna do is shout and say, Bridge: I feel like I've been gone myself Lost myself somewhere on a shelf Glad I found my way back here In this place I have no fear |
| Welcome Home |
| Chorus: Just one moment captured in eternity Passions wrapped in a sweet kiss I wish I could live it again everyday Wellspring of love and perfect bliss Verse: Your words soothe my troubled soul And all my worries melt away My heart burns with bright, new hope And courage to stand and face the day The comfort and shelter that I know Hold me tightly, don't let me go |

| Verse 1: A long, long time ago In a zoo not far from here There lived a sweet li'l penguin And all he ever wanted was to find someone His on true dear (not the animal) He schemed up his escape for many a night He plotted and planned 'til he could take no more Grabbed his stuff, went out the door and into the night Toward those big city lights Chorus 1: This is the penguin song About a penguin following his heart And let his dreams lead him Far from the dark Verse 2: Made his way through the streets Only following his two left feet Wealked around all night, minding his biz Finally ended up in the 7th Circle of Hell (the night club, that is) He walked in proud, strong, and free of fright For this would be his lucky night He met her eyes from across the room They proceeded to shake it like crazy fools Chorus 2: This is the penguin song About a penguin following his heart And let his dreams lead him Far from the dark This is the penguin song Not the armadillo song So just take the chance And do the penguin dance! Bridge: Instrumental beat-boxing & Interpretive dancing |
