I've been grooving to this song ever since I saw this performed by Seal and Syesha Mercado... downloaded this just now... can't get enough of it! Makes me feel like the world's alright... right, Big Daddy? :D


Everyday, a shade of blue
You won't believe
What I'm going through
It just feels like I can't afford to let myself go
No, oohooo no...

Everyone is just the same
They touch me
But I can't say

There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake 'cause
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you

Heavenly, that's what you are
You're burnin' me like a shining star
How am I supposed to be that king without you
Ooohooo...it's true yea

Everyone is just the same
They love me
But I can't say

There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake yeaaahh...
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you

Heeeeeeeey yeaaaah

There has been no one brighter than you
I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake 'cause
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you

I have seen no (light) brighter than you
And I can't deny these things that I do
Feels like the world's at stake yeeaah yeah
I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you

Eeeeehhyea...for you
Ba ba ba ba ba oowww
Yeeeah yea yeah

Everyday I sit down and I feel like I'm waiting
For you
I've been waiting for you
For you

I have been waiting
I have been waiting for you
Peace,
Clay, the Scribe

"In a sky full of people, only some
want to fly, isn't that crazy?" - Seal, "Crazy"

Time stand still
In this moment
Dawn arise
From nights keeping

All my love
Stored up treasure
Heart awake from your sleeping

And all I really want to say is I love you
And all I really want to do is be next to you

Here on the edge
Of what lies ahead
Ready to fall into you
Fall into you

I'm not afraid
Of change or of pain
Ready to fall into you
Fall into you

Searching heart
Search is over
Peace has proven you real
Guarded heart, Guard this love now
As faithfulness is revealed

And all I really want to say is I love you
And all I really want to do is be next to you

Here on the edge
Of what lies ahead
Ready to fall into you
Fall into you

I'm not afraid
Of change or of pain
Ready to fall into you
Fall into you

I am running after You Jesus.... here I come!!! Ü
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I hear the voice, the voice of the one I love,

He's calling my name.

I hear the voice, the voice of the one I love,

He's calling my name.


He's saying, come up higher, you'll hear the angels sing.

Come up higher my beloved,

Come up higher and leave this world behind.

You'll find me to be beautiful


(CHORUS)
I am running, running after You

You become my souls delight

I am running, running after You,

Here with You I find my life


One thing have I desired, this will I seek after

To dwell in Your house forevermore

Now I'm running after, the thing that really matters

You've become my joy and song.

Thanks to Mitch Uy for sharing this song with me. I mistook her blog post (she posted these lyrics) for something else, LOL.

I'm learning how to play this on the guitar. Piano would be trickier, haha.

This is my theme song for this season...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I will waste my life.
I'll be tested and tried.
with no regrets inside of me,
just to find how much You feel,
let me find how much You feel.

I leave my father's house and I'll leave my mother
I leave all I have known and I'll have no other.

I am in love with You and there is no cost,
I am in love with You and there is no loss.
I am in love with You and I want to take Your name
I am in love with You and I want to cling to You, Jesus.
Just let me cling to You, Jesus.

I'll say good-bye to my father, my mother
I'll turn my back on every other lover and I'll press on
Yes, I'll press on.

And I'll press on. Yes, I'll press on
For I am in love with You and there is no cost,
I am in love with You and there is no loss.
I am in love with You and I want to take Your name
I am in love with You and I want to cling to You, Jesus.
Just let me cling to You, Jesus.

I wanna cling to You.

Some funky CCM Ü The OC Supertones always make me wanna get up and dance! Hehe.

Water by Lauryn Hill

[Verse 1]
Moving down the streams of my lifetime
Pulls the fascination in my sleeve
Cooling off the fire of my longing
Boiling off my cold within his heat
Melting down the walls of inhibition
Evaporating all of my fears
Baptizing me into complete submission
Dissolving my condition with his tears

[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years

[Verse 2]
Coursing through my senses, he's prevailing
Floating through the space of my design
Drowning me to find my inside sailing
Drinking in the mainstream of his mind
Filling up the cup of my emotions
Spilling over into all I do
If I only I could get lost in his ocean
Surviving on the thought of loving you

[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water, the water
I ain't felt this way in years

[Verse 3]
Bathing in the fountain of his essence
He causes my expression to remain
Humbled on a mountain by his presence
Washing my intentions with his name
Sealing off the floodgates of his passions
Saving all his liquid for his own
Moisturizing me to satisfaction
In my imagination? No no!
He's pouring out his soul to me for hours and hours
Drawing out my nature with his hands
Yearning I'm so thirsty for his power
Burning to be worthy of his land

[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years

I Gotta Find Peace Of Mind by Lauryn Hill

I gotta find peace of mind
I know another cord...
I gotta find peace of mind
See, this what that voice in your head says
When you try to get peace of mind...
I gotta find peace of mind, I gotta find peace of mind
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says there's no me without him, please help me forget about him
He takes all my energy, trapped in my memory
Constantly holding me, constantly holding me
I need to tell you all, all the pain he's caused, mmmm
I need to tell I'm, I'm undone because, mmmm
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says it's impossible without him, but I know it's possible
To finally be in love, and know the real meaning of
A lasting relationship, not based on ownership
I trust every part of you, cuz all that I... All that you say you do
You love me despite myself, sometimes I fight myself
I just can't believe that you, would have anything to do
With someone so insecure, someone so immature
Oh you inspire me, to be the higher me
You made my desire pure, you made my desire pure
Just tell me what to say, I can't find the words to say
Please don't be mad with me, I have no identity
All that I've known is gone, all I was building on
I don't wanna walk with you, how do I talk to you
Touch my mouth with your hands, touch my mouth with your hands
Oh I wanna understand, the meaning of your embrace
I know now I have to face, the temptations of my past
Please don't let me disgrace, where my devotion lays
Now that I know the truth, now that it's no excuse
Keeping me from your love, what was I thinking of?
Holding me from your love, what was I thinking of?
You are my peace of mind, that old me is left behind
You are my peace of mind, that old me is left behind
He says it's impossible, but I know it's possible
He says it's improbable, but I know it's tangeable
He says it's not grabbable, but I know it's haveable
Cuz anything's possible, oh anything is possible
Please come free my mind, please come meet my mind
Can you see my mind, oh
Won't you come free my mind?
Oh I know it's possible
Anything, anything, anything, anything, anything, yeeey
Anything, anything, anything, anything, yeeey
Anything, anything, anything, anything, anything, yeeey
Oh free! Free, free, free your mind
Free, free your mind... free, free your mind
Free, free, free, free your mind
Oh, it's so possible, oh it's so possible
I'm telling you it's possible, I'm telling you it's possible
Free, free... free, free... free, free... get free now
Free, free... free, free, free, free... free, free
You're my peace of mind, that old me is left behind
You're my peace of mind, you're my peace of mind
He's my peace of mind, he's my peace of mind
He's my peace of mind, he's my peace of mind
What a joy it is to be alive
To get another chance, yeah
Everyday's another chance
To get it right this time
Everyday's another chance
Oh what a merciful, merciful, merciful God
Oh what a wonderful, wonderful, wonderful God
[Repeat till fade]

So Much Things To Say by Lauryn Hill

Yeah, yeah yeah, yeah yeah yey
Why, why, why, why, why, why, why
Why, Why, heh
They've got so much things to say right now
They've got so much things to say
They've got so much things to say right now
They've got so much things to say
I'll never forget no way, how they crucified Jesus Christ
I'll never forget no way, how they sold Marcus Garvey for rice
I'll never forget no way, how they turned their back on Paul Bogle
So don't you forget no way...
Who you are, and where you stand in the struggle
They've got so much things to say right now
They've got so much things to say
They've got so very many things, to say right now
They've got so much things to say
I'n'I nah come to fight flesh and blood
But spiritual wickedness in high and low places
And don't you fight me down
I'll stand firm, and give Jah all the thanks and praises
I don't expect to be justified, by these laws of men
Though the we can find me guilty, Jah will proove my innocency
Cuz when the rain falls, it don't, fall on one man's house top
Remember that
See when this rain falls, it don't, fall on one man's house top
They've got so much things to say right now
They've got so much, so much things to say
They've got, heh, so much things to say right now
They've got so, so much things to say
But let them keep talking, oh let them keep talking
Cuz non of them walking, oh non of them walking, no
And while they still talking, see I'ma be walking
I'ma be walking, so let them keep talking
Said I never forget no way, how they crucified Jesus Christ
And I, I'll never forget, how they sold Marcus Garvey for rice
Said I, never forget, how they turned their backs on Paul Bogle
So non of you, non of you forget...
Who you are, and where you stand in the struggle
Cuz when this rain, cuz when this rain, rain, rain, rain, rain falls
It don't fall on one man's house, I'm telling you the rain...
I'm telling you the rain, rain, rain, rain, rain don't fall
It don't fall... they...
They've got, they've got, so many very things to say about me
I'm telling you: lie
They, and they, and they will have so many things
They'll have so many things to say about you... to say about you
Cuz they don't know me, know me
They don't know me, oh they don't know me, oh they don't know me
Oh they don't know me well
They, they, they, they, they, they, they don't know my Father
Cuz if they did, if they did... hey ey... theeey... heh..

Woohoo!!! Simply can't help but dance and jump around for joy when I hear this song. God is certainly on the move.

One of my all-time favorite songs.

God is Moving by Hillsong United

Holy Spirit, Touch Your people
Teach us the ways of God
And as we live, As Jesus did
You are honored and lifted up

There's a stirring in the Spirit
There's an urgency in this hour
We as children must obey
Can you hear
The footsteps of God?

God is moving, God is moving

Can you hear the sound
Of revival?

As we praise You, as we sing
Draw near to us O God

As we cry out for the nations
Pour out revival in the land

There's a stirring in the Spirit
There's an urgency in this hour
We as children must obey
Can you hear
The footsteps of God?

You bought my life with the
Blood that You shed on the cross
When You died for the sins of men
And You let out a cry
Crucified now alive in me

These hands are Yours
Teach them to serve as You please
And I’ll reach out desperate to see
All the greatness of God
May my soul rest assured in You

I’ll never be the same
No I’ll never be the same

‘Cause I know that You’re alive
You came to fix my broken life
And I sing to glorify
Your holy Name
Jesus Christ

You’ve changed it all
You broke down the wall
When I spoke and confessed
In You I’m blessed
Now I walk in the light
In victorious sight of You

Your fire fall down
Fire fall down
On us we pray
As we seek
Show me Your heart
Show me Your way
Show me Your glory

Chorus:
I remember the first glance
I remember the first romance
I remember the first dance
When I fell in love with You
When I fell in love with You
When I fell in love

(Verse 1)
I thought that I would never know love
And maybe I would never know touch
And then You came and awakened me
And then You came unlocking me
I've never known a love like this
You've shown the truth behind the myth
The Mystery

Repeat Chorus

And when it's all been said
When it's all been done
When this race is run
And this life overcome
I will remember your love
I will remember your love
I will remember your love
I will remember your love

Repeat Chorus
