New Day A Dawn
Lord, please give me strength
For the new day I see
The old day now gone
Also the strength I need
I know in the future
A different day will dawn
For the old is now taken
Yesterday is gone
Tomorrow is new
Yesterday is old
The assurance of a second
No promise is sold
So look up to heaven
And ask for strength
For time now left
No matter the length

The Night Became As Though
As the night drew near
The air drew cold
I could feel my heart
Though a piece been sold
The noises around
So soft but loud
As though a baby
Made the noise of a crowd
Rain began to fall
Upon the land so dry
Awakening the ground
With love from the sky
Then what would appear
A rainbow of gold
Just like a fairy tale
I'd once been told

One Heartbeat
Blood, sweat, and tears
Sacrificed everyday
Even when they tell us
Man, there's no way!
You have to believe
When no one else will
Together as one
That's how we feel
No pain, No gain
We often hear
Lay it on the line
We have, No fear!
A family of many
We have become
Not just a number
As to some

You Are The God Of Me
I exalt thee oh, Lord
I bow at your feet
All your wonder and grace
Your precious blood I plead
You're the same when the sun rises
Still the same in the eve
You're an unchanging God
You are the God of me
You're a God of laughter
You're a God of peace
You are the only God
You are the God of me
Some people worship and pray
To a god dead and gone
My God, you're alive
And forever will live on

All Of Heavens Mine
Please don't mourn
My body on earth
Cause I wouldn't trade
For all the wealth and worth
My body was a capsule
That held my soul
For now I'm brand new
And completely whole
If you should cry
Cry tears of joy
For I'm like a kid
With a brand new toy
All of Heavens mine
At my feet
So don't mourn for me
Or what you've seen

I'm Always Here!
I’m here my daughter
Just open your heart
Look through your tears
And through the dark
I haven’t once left you
And never will I go
My loyalty is to you
I do hope you know
I see your heartbreak
I feel your pain
Look to me
Just call my name
I long for your hand
To guide you in the dark
Reach out my daughter
And open your heart

It's All For Him
All my inner soul
The most precious, my spirit
I unfold as a handkerchief
I sing with the most beautiful lyric
Everything I do, I do
At least, the air I breathe
All the portals of my soul
My Lord, my only need
It's all for him, My Lord
The reason the oceans flow
The waves know their maker
When bashing to and fro
The tiniest of reasons of all
The way the clouds form
Is all in total reverence
The reason we all were born

I Reach My Hand To You
My son I have called you
Even as the days of old
I have come to you this hour
To take back what the devil has stole
I see the humbleness inside
That you dare no one to see
I hear when you call
When it's just you and me
I am the one that brings life
I have entrusted your children to you
I am the hand that stayed your son
I am the one that knew what to do
Someday you will need me
And your time might have passed
Son, I stand here right now
Don't let it be the last

Seems Like Yesterday
Time come back
Where have you gone
Such short of time
In a span so long
I remember vividly
Like it was yesterday
When I was a little girl
Outside at play
My brother and I
Would get up before dawn
Without waking mom
Put our play clothes on
We would make sure
We would put dirty ones on
From the day before
Trying to please mom

Our Fallen Hero~
Our Fallen Hero
Stands tall in our minds
As he lay lifeless
To save your child and mine
A good man he was
We'll hear everyone say
That doesn't even touch
The man he was that day
Many will say
I'd do the same
I'd lay down my life
If tragedy became
Yet, all we do know
Stood a great man
In our time of trouble
He took a stand
