Where I Belong

It is such a marvelous light,
This beautiful ray still shines during,
The darkest part of the night.
How selfish are we to take what isn't ours,
We build on the beauty of your world.
We take down trees and burn them to the ground.
We turn what is rightfully yours into a wasteland.
We dig until we can’t stand anymore,
And we blame you for our mistakes.
We are abusing what was once beautiful.

I will follow your beauty to the edge,
And when I know where you are, it is where I want to be.
When I don’t know where you are, you are where I belong.

Here I am breathing just to breathe,
I am dreaming just to dream.
So quick to take advantage of all you give me.
Here I hurt because she has hurt me,
And I bleed because he has cut me.
I am so quick to blame everyone else.
Here I am fearing just to fear him,
I stay awake because I believe I am free,
And do what I want because I think I have the control,
But you’re the only one to put me in my place,
You’re the one to give me this life where I stay.

I will always follow you’re amazing beauty,
And wherever you are, it is where I want to be.
When you are nowhere to be found, this isn't where I belong.

These days will always get darker as the light fades out,
And you’re greatness will always soar high even when we are paying you no mind.
We get so caught up in the war around us we forget we have already won,
And one day we can finally come home where we belong.
We will never compare to the perfect son,
Not with all the awful things we have done.
But you forgive us and you set us free,
But sometimes we still do all the wrong things.
We get caught following the wrong kind of love,
So easy to forget you are the only one.

Where I lay my head is nowhere I should be,
But where you are is where I want to be, 
Because where you are is where I belong.

The End Times?

You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains. (Matthew 24:6-8; Mark 13:7-8 NIV).Mark this: There will be terrible times in the last days. People will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boastful, proud, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, without love, unforgiving, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not lovers of the good, treacherous, rash, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God -- having a form of godliness but denying its power. Have nothing to do with them. (2 Timothy 3:1-5 NIV). But the day of the Lord will come like a thief. The heavens will disappear with a roar; the elements will be destroyed by fire, and the earth and everything in it will be laid bare. (2 Peter 3:10 NIV). An...

Even On My Worst Days

My eyes are opened wide, And the world is falling to pieces, I feel like sealing my heart completely. The tears still drop towards the ceiling. I wish I could see your beautiful creation again, But everything is still upside down. It’s another fight and one more day on the ground. I can pray for heaven to come raining, But here on earth I am drowning. I can say all the right things, But be misheard by everyone. As I am being pushed out to sea, You’re still out there searching for me. The love you have always strengthens me. And so I step on some toes on my path, And I struggle to trust the people around me, So, I may be losing myself as well, But I know I can never lose your grace. My faith could never change, Even on my worst days.

Give It Up For You

Here I am caught in this dance, Spinning until I finally get my chance. I’ll put one foot forward, I’ll put one foot back, But until we move together, We will continue to lose each other. So here is my hand, I’ll open myself up wide, So you can forever live inside. Here I am searching for you. So here is my heart I pour it out, So here is my soul I’ll let it go. So here is my life I give it up for you. Here I am to finally lose myself, I know you could truly help. I’ll leave my burdens at the door, I’ll leave my trash at the altar, And I will live this life, The way you taught me. So In my final steps, Maybe our footing wasn’t perfect, Maybe our wording wasn’t all clean, But in the end you were forever here to love me. Here I am searching for you. So here is my heart I pour it all out, So here is my soul I’ll finally let it go. So here is my life I’ll forever give it up for you.
