In My Heart at 5in5

Lyrics:

Look at that picture, that girl with big brown eyes
Do you remember? It doesn't seem like that much time
And all of those moments probably seemed like normal life
You were just loving, didn't realize it was divine

You gave that little girl a chance to dream
You built a place she could spread her wings
You gave your life, so I could find mine
So I'm following your footsteps with mine

How more could I thank you 
Than to sow where you sowed
I join in the harness 
That the Lord has bestowed
I'm following your footsteps with mine

You gave that little girl a chance to dream
You built a place she could spread her wings
You gave your life, so I could find mine
So I'm following your footsteps 
I'm carrying the torch you passed
I'm following your footsteps with mine

Footsteps   #5in5songs

There are moments when life switches suddenly from that 4/4 beat
To the swoopy loopy 123 in my head
There are moments instead of right, left, right, left, misapplied, I began to glide
There are moments instead of straight ahead, I will twirl and curl and 123, 
There are moments instead of forward, forward, I side-by-side, I step behind

You should watch out if you’re in my way I’m not plodding slowly, I 123
I am waltzing through the hall. Arms are arching, curling gracefully
The conductor tilts his head, instead of up-down, up-down, 123
Will you join me in my waltz? Leave the doldrum, ho-hum and  123?

Lyrics:

Verse One

Darkness swirls all around you
Your gaze is fixed on the shadows that grow near
This valley seems to be the darkest one
Your hope is gone
But lift your eyes from the battle
Turn your head to the One who knows your name
Even here know you're not alone, just behold

Chorus

I have a table for you in the presence of your enemies
A table for you in the middle of your storm
A table for you with a cup that's overflowing, dear one
I'm calling to you, come drink with me 
In the valley I'll restore your soul

Verse 2
Rest your hands from the battle
Turn away from the clamor and the noise
Even now I hold your victory
Your Shepherd King

Verse 3
Do not fear for I am with you
I comfort you with my rod and my staff
Here with me, you find your rest
I anoint your head


Table For You


Breathing softly, I wait
Sighing slowly, I wait
Hoping deeply, I wait

Will you answer me with a mighty rushing wind?
Will you storm from heaven with thunder in your voice?
Will you shake the heavens moving mountains in my path?
Do you see, do you see me?

Looking expectantly, I wait
Holding tightly, I wait
Trusting deeply, I wait

Will you answer me with flaming tongues of fire?
Will you pour from heaven opening floodgates?
Will you part the waters with dry ground at my feet
Do you see, do you see

Will you move with compassion, 
Stretch out your right hand?
Do you see, do you see me?



Do You See?

About a precious little friend from Peace

Lyrics:

It was a little orange goldfish
That had lived way beyond his prime
They figured no one would notice
Yet somehow I knew you would cry
How could I ever live without him, you'd scream
He has a piece of my heart
And as I tried to console you 
I knew you had a piece of mine

The tears you cried were mine to hold
You victories you freely told
All the times you screamed life wasn't fair
I was there
And I held your little world

It was a piece of homework
Take away, not subtract
Broke a pencil in your frustration
Didn't know how to act
I hate liars, you'd scream
Honey, so do I 
All the lies that this world had told you
I wished that I could rewind 

Because the tears you cried were mine to hold
You victories you freely told
All the times you screamed life wasn't fair
I was there
And I held your little world

The least of these I think they might call you
Unfortunately you thought they might be true
But wherever you go, I want you to know
That you hold a piece of my heart

Orange Goldfish

Lyrics:

Some people like sunny days
Hot spot, sweat dropping, money days
No clouds in the sky 
No breeze drifting by but
I'm one of those funny folk
I see a grey sky and hope
The clouds will roll in
I'm happy to see the

Drip drop, flip flop in the puddles
Splish splash on a rainy day
Pit pat, hear that on the windows
The thunder may roar,
But give me a rainy day

Drip drop, flip flop in the puddles
A tip top my roof it pours
I'm inside all warm and snuggled
The thunder may roar
But give me rainy day

Drip Drop

Seasons come
And just as quickly
Seasons go
But I'm pretending
That I don't know
What will be missing 
On the other side

You'll go your way
I'll go mine
With fingers not still intertwined
You'll chase your dreams 
I'll chase mine
And maybe someday we will find
That we're side by side again
Hand in hand again
But for now,
I'll keep holding your heart

Feelings come
And just as quickly
Feelings go
But I'm pretending
That I don't know
What will be missing 
On the other side
I will miss you
On the other side

You'll go your way
I'll go mine
With fingers not still intertwined
You'll chase your dreams 
I'll chase mine
And maybe someday we will find
That we're side by side again
Hand in hand again
But for now,
I'll keep holding your heart
