I know that I am getting older,
But I pray that I don’t grow old,
You say your spirit is like a fire,
But why is everything I touch so cold,
You say your burden is easy
and your yoke is light,
it’s for You’re covariant unseen!
But keeping my faith strong,
is such a fight
I was told nothing great ever came easy,
Everything comes at a price
But God these nights are growing long and I’m questioning meaning,
Why do I feel like I’m out of time
So many questions yet so few signs
I feel lost but I keep on searching
I feel used but I keep pouring my heart out
I still have some fight left in me

No Shame

Everyday is a gift from God
Tomorrow is not promised
If you can hear this, this is a voice of freedom
You will never find anything more valuable than love
Family is more than blood
Every breath that you take
This life that you lead
Why do you choose to follow death?
I don’t want to see you like this
You’re worth so much more
Your past does not control you
Do you not realize?
For God so loved the world
You are not alone in this battle
I know it feels that way
You feel the darkness surrounding you
It’s telling you to give in
Excuses will always be there for you opportunities won’t be
In the end it’s the chances we don’t take that one the ones we regret
Don’t waste your life in shame
You are worth more
His blood was for your sake

The lord is my Shepard, and I shall not want
He leads me beside green pastures and still waters
He restores my soul, and leads me in path of righteousness for his namesake
Yay tho I walk through the valley of death
I will fear no evil for you are with me
Your rod and staff they comfort me
I FEEL YOU COMFORTING ME
The lord is my shepherd, ( I shall not want )
The lord is my shepherd, (No I will not want)
And I will follow you until the end of the road ( I will follow you there)
And I will follow you until the end of my life
And I will live my life in hopes I’ll please you,
I HOPE I’LL PLEASE YOU
And I will go down this road you’ve called me
I WILL FIND YOU THERE
And if I end up burning
I WILL PRAISE YOUR NAME
For you won’t leave me to my perils alone
IM NOT ALONE
The lord is my shepherd
And I will follow you until the end of my life

Asaph

No good deed goes unpunished
Everyday a new pain rises
I live my life with thorns in my flesh
I try to heal but they always come back fresh
You always say
the first will be last but all I ever see is the first going first
Pride goes before destruction but I ever see is it rise
Violence is their gospel
Oppression is what they spread
Why does the iniquity thrive
They do not struggle
They have no worries
They live in a dream world
while I’m stuck in the nightmare
Nowadays it’s seems like there’s nothing to stay pure for
Why should I hold integrity?
Their ground is not solid
Their campaign will become their calamity
Their death will come
My strength is in God
One day you’ll see
Some good come out of this suffering

Running up a mountain with chains tied to your legs
What has this chip on your shoulder profited you
The past is the past and there’s no changing it
When that moment comes you loose all control
This grudge in now taking its toll
We need to find some middle ground
We need forgive and restore
You never need to forget who you are
We need restoration in this world
Divided we’re conquered
But together we can do so much more
Learn from the past not live in it
Dwelling on things you can’t change won’t help you grow
The bitterness inside is breaking down your bones
Life is better lived without chains
Bonds are better built without spite
Forgiveness holds a heavy weight
I know it’s not easy doing what’s right
