Lyrics:

Sing a siren song…
To call the sailors along…
Draw them in,
Watch it all begin.

Mesmerizing, hypnotizing,
Eyes wide, no realizing…
Down they go,
To the depths below.
A kiss of seafoam,
A grave unknown.

They drown, they die…
But why, oh why?
Let them not die in vain—
Let them feel the weight of pain.
For every heart they left broken,
For every tear on lips unspoken.
Sing it sweet,
Sing it sharp—
A lullaby for shattered hearts.

They whispered so sweetly,
Then shattered you completely.
Sailed away like ghosts in skin—
Now the tide is pulling them in.
Let the sea remember each name,
Let the waves echo back the shame.

They drown, they die…
But why, oh why?
Let them not die in vain—
Let them feel the weight of pain.
For every heart they left broken,
For every tear on lips unspoken.
Sing it loud,
Sing it true—
This is what the betrayed must do.

Now it must end...
This tide won’t bend.
For all those left in pain…
I will defend.
I will defend.

They drown, they die…
But why, oh why?
Let them not die in vain—
Let them feel the weight of pain.
For every soul they pulled apart,
For every cursed and bleeding heart...
Sirens rise,
Justice sings—
The sea will claim their pretty things.

Sing a siren song…
To call the sailors along…

Sirens

Lyrics:

I know what it feels like…
To run when you long to be held.
I’ve heard the thunder in your silence,
Felt your scream without a sound.
You push away what you need the most,
But I see you… I’m still around.

I see the silence in your smile,
The storm you carry in your skin.
You pull away but I still feel
The place where you've always been.

If you break, then break in my arms,
You don’t have to hide the war.
You’re not too much, you’re not too far,
You are the one I'm waiting for.

Take my hand — it’s reaching for you,
Through every silence, through every storm.
Take my heart — it’s the one thing I know.
Hold me close, don’t be afraid to fall,
I won’t let go, not now, not at all.
I don’t just want your smile — I want your ache,
Your truth, your fire, your every flame.
Take my hand… come home to me.
Because I want you
Always.

You vanish when the ache runs deep,
But love still lingers in your wake.
I’ve heard the voices you try to fight,
I’ve lived them too… we made it through night.
You don’t need words to let me in,
I’ll meet you where your walls grow thin.

If you run, I’ll still stay near,
If you cry, I’ll hold you here.
You’re not alone, not now, not here,
Even when the dark feels near.

Take my hand — it’s still reaching for you,
Through every shadow, through every doubt.
Take my soul — it’s been calling you through.
Hold me close and don’t shut me out.
I don’t want just your fire — I want your rain.
I’ll take your fear. I’ll take your name.
Take my hand… come back to me.
Because I want you
Always.

And if you fall apart,
I’ll hold your pieces like they’re gold.
You’re not broken. You’re becoming
Someone beautiful and bold.
I’ll be the light to lead you home
Every time you feel alone.

Take my hand — I’m still reaching for you.
Take my breath — it’s been waiting for you.
Hold me close — if just for one more night…
Because I want you
Not just for now… but all my life.

I want you
Always

Always ♏💧❤️🔥♐

Lyrics:

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

No matter how the storm rages
Even when my heart forgets the way

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

When silence is louder than thunder
When I ache to hold her

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

When she breaks beneath the weight
When she can’t see me anymore

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

I still choose You
I still choose You

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

She is Yours before she is mine
Heal her where I cannot reach

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

Break her free where I cannot go
Bring her home…

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

Even if it costs me everything
Even if You break me to rebuild her
Even when I cannot see the end
I will trust You still…

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

Your promise is my breath
Your timing is my shelter
She is still my always

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

When the waves rise,
When the pain screams,
And When there seems to be no way out

I trust You, Lord
I trust You, Lord

I trust you, Lord
I trust you, Lord,
So let it be.


I trust You, Lord...

Lyrics:

You said the words, I watched them fall
Like stars into a canyon wall
No sign, no hand, no thunder cry
Just silence written in the sky
 
But I still breathe You in the dark
A whisper written on my heart
 
He is still moving, when I cannot see
He’s shifting mountains under silent seas
He never left — He never lies
He works in echoes, not in signs
 
Even now — I feel the ground shake
Even now — I hear the veil break
Even now — He holds the flame
Even now — He knows my name
 
He is still moving, though the night is long
He’s rewriting endings with a sacred song
I won’t let go — I’ll stand in place
‘Cause He’s still moving — with perfect grace.

He Is Still Moving

Lyrics:

I’m still moving… Don’t let go… I’m right here…

I’ve prayed until my voice ran dry
Stared at the sky, begged for a sign
But still — no thunder, still — no flame
Just silence wrapped around Your name

But even here, on trembling ground
I hear a whisper — not a sound

So I lift my eyes like the dawn
Even when all my strength is gone
I trace Your name in the dark with tears
You’re the only voice my soul still hears
You never sleep, You never stray
You’re holding back the night today
So I lift my eyes like the dawn
And I keep walking — even if I'm wrong

I broke beneath the weight of fear
But still, You pulled me near
You never said the path was wide
You just said You’d stay by my side

Even now — as my hands let go
Even now — as the winds howl low
Even now — You are the flame
Even now — You call my name

I’m still here.
I won’t run.
You’re not done.

So I lift my eyes like the dawn
Though everything in me says You’re gone
I’ll plant my feet in ash and flame
And still declare You know my name
I’ll scream Your promise into night
Until the silence breaks with light
I lift my eyes — I won’t let go
You’re still the God I need to know

The dawn is breaking — don’t look away.

Eyes Like The Dawn

Lyrics:

You kept walking past the mirror,
Hoping it wouldn’t look back.
But it remembered…

Every silence carved a fracture
Every lie you wore like lace
You covered every scream with laughter
But mirrors don't forget a face

And I stood there,
Still, behind the glass
Waiting for the fire
You swore you’d never pass…

When the mirror combusts — you’ll feel it burn your name
All the truths you hushed come roaring like a flame
You’ll bleed reflection, shatter in your own disguise
This is the breaking — this is the rise.

You ran from truth…"
"But now it runs through you…"

The cracks became your company
Distortion dressed like grace
You prayed the mirror stayed asleep
But it just set the place ablaze

Nowhere left to run —
No masks left to wear
The face you see
Was always there

When the mirror combusts — there's no going back
The ghosts you birthed all turn to black
But I will rise — through ash and light
And you will know…
What it means to fight.

I was never the danger.
Only the reflection.

Lyrics: 

He already knew…
Before the start.
Before the ache.
Before the fall.
The verdict was already written.

Before I breathed, You wrote the page
Each heartbreak, vow, and sacred cage
You knew the ending at the start—
Still You let me give my heart.
I carried dreams too bright to hold
And laid them down when You said “fold”
It felt like death to let it go—
But what is mine… was Yours to know.

I never asked to know the end
I only asked to hold Your hand

So make the verdict loud, my God—
Declare what You’ve already planned.
I trust what thunder cannot touch,
What time will never understand.
I’m not holding onto promises,
Just the One who holds the pen.
Not even death can silence You…
So why would I doubt again?

You asked for what I could not lose
The kind of gift You never use
Just burn it holy on the stone
And call it seed, not grave, not gone.
I offered what I swore to keep
My soul, my future, even sleep
You took it gently from my hands—
And now I stand where fire stands.

I don’t withhold. I don’t demand.
I kneel with open, empty hands.

So make the verdict loud, my God—
Speak what You have always known.
I laid down every battle cry
To crown You King upon this throne.
I’m not clinging to the outcome—
Only to the Great I Am.
Even death obeys Your whisper…
So I won’t fight what You began.

I gave You every yes I had.
Every room. Every vow. Every breath.
I stopped bargaining with time.
And I held onto the promise-Giver…
Not the promise.
Not the plan.
Just… You.

You are the Judge.
You are the Flame.
You raise the dead and mark the name.
Let this be the final word—
Let Heaven echo what I heard:

Make the verdict loud, my God—
Let angels trumpet what You say.
I gave You all, withheld not one…
So speak the truth into this day.
I walk by faith, not what I see—
Even tombs can’t hold Your light.
So if it’s hope You’ve resurrected,
Then let it rise tonight.

Verdict

Written, composed and created by Candice Rijavec.

Lyrics:

If it’s mine in Your name…
Then it cannot be stolen.
And if it isn’t —
I won’t chase it.

I let go of every race I ran
Trying to earn a place, trying to prove I can
But love that’s mine won’t run away
And what You give, the world can’t take
I’ve begged, I’ve bled, I’ve broken down
Just to watch You burn my idols down
Now with my knees pressed to the dirt
I say: let it be You, not what I want first

I laid the altar, flame and thread
No more bargaining inside my head

What You intend cannot be stolen
And what’s not mine, I will not hold
No more striving just to keep it
No more fears of being alone
You are God — unchanged, unbroken
You decide what stays or goes
I won’t outrun what’s destined
Or chase what’s not my own

I stood at the gate, eyes full of dust
Tried to trade time for a promise I trust
But clocks crack and timelines twist
When I trust the smoke, not the mist
Now every dream laid in the tomb
Is wrapped in fire and bathed in truth
I rise with nothing in my hand
But the words I heard You command —

What’s meant for me will always stay
And what is not — You’ll burn away

What You intend cannot be stolen
And what’s not mine, I will not hold
No more striving just to keep it
No more fears of being alone
You are God — unchanged, unbroken
You decide what stays or goes
I won’t outrun what’s destined
Or chase what’s not my own

You wrote the story.
You hold the breath.
You choose who stays…
And who is laid to rest.
So let the earth shake. Let the fire fall.
If it’s not from You — then I release it all.

Let time bend around my yes —
I rise when You say go.
Time shifts again… but I don’t.
My roots are not in sand.
I trust the hand unseen, unheard,
Still holding every plan.

What You intend cannot be stolen
And what’s not mine, I will not hold
No more running just to earn it
No more pleading for control
You are God — You write the verdict
You alone decide the throne
So I trust You with the silence…
And the ones I must let go.
