If I Told You that I Loved You;
Would you have a change of heart?
If I Told You that I Loved You;
Would till death do us part?
If I Told You that I Loved You;
Would you give us another chance?
If I Told You that I Loved You;
Would you give me our first dance?
I would - I would - if I thought you'd care;
But when I look around, you're not there.
I would - I would - if you asked one time;
But you'd be around if you wanted to be mine.
I will never tell you that I loved you;
Cause it'd be my heart that'd hurt.
I will never tell you that I loved you;
After all, you've treated me like dirt.
I will never tell you that I loved you;
No matter how strong the feelings may be.
I will never tell you that I loved you;
But the truth is, you'll never find anyone like me.

Faceless Love
What are you doing tonight, my love?
Where will you lay your head down to rest?
I don't know your name, and I can't imagine your face.
The only thing I know is that you'll be the best.
I pray for you, like I hope you're praying for me.
Do you know the Lord now? Or do you still seek His grace?
He's the greatest there is, I promise you that.
He'll enable us both to finish the race.
What're your interests, and what are your passions?
Do you like baseball or basketball? Dancing or singing?
Do you like adventures or safety? Planned or spontaneous?
Will you still love the Cubbies, even when they're not winning?
I pray for your protection, that you'd come to no harm.
I have nothing to fear cause He's got you in His hands.
But I cannot help but wonder, can't help to dream.
Do you agree that Brand New is the greatest band?
Do you like comedies or dramas, maybe a little action is what you crave.
Do you like to travel? Where will you go and where have you been?
Do you surf, do you snowboard, or maybe you ski?
Perhaps you're even someone I now call a friend?
Do you want a family? I hope that you do.
Three kids of four, that'd be my hope.
Do you have all that you need?
How do you live and how do you cope?
I could go on all day, so many questions to ask.
I'll just have to trust and believe God knows.
I'm waiting for you. Please wait for me.
Ok God, we're ready for the show!

One Last Thought of You (Feb 15, 2009)
It's been awhile now, 53 days to be exact.
My heart continues to torment me.
Why it's so difficult I may never know, thought it'd be quick.
Yet I've seen that this was harder than I thought it would be.
It's time to make a choice, and I've made my own.
I need to get over this, I need to move on.
You'd think that after all that happened,
I would have realized you were gone.
I wanted to believe, I guess I wanted to hope.
But you've shown there is nothing else there.
No little hints, not the smallest of signs.
You are who you are, I'll try not to care.
I hope you know, I don't blame you at all.
You made a decision, and where right in your choice.
I'm not angry or bitter, I'd like to still be friends.
But understand if I never again hear your voice.
This is the last you'll hear, nothing more in your honor.
I am living for Jesus now, there is no rewind.
I will always be praying for you and your life.
Know that you will never be totally out of my mind.
Goodbye.

We Could Have; But We Didn't (Jan 1, 2009)
I could have spent Christmas without tears.
I could have spent the New Year full of joy.
I could have went to bed each night content.
I could have, but I didn't.
I could have just gone home that night.
I could have hid my feelings like normal.
I could have continued to be happy.
I could have, but I didn't.
He could have left the blind men blind.
He could have left the sick, sick.
He could have condemned us from the start.
He could have, but He didn't.
He could have called angels from Heaven.
He could have saved himself that night.
He could have conquered an empire.
He could have, but He didn't.
He could have decided not to become human.
I could have gone at a safer pace.
I could have held back the way I felt.
He could have never given His grace.
I could have done things differently.
He could have left our sins, but not He.
He could have said no to the cross.
I could have listened to those around me.
We could have, but We didn't.
I could have spent the New Year full of joy.
I could have went to bed each night content.
I could have, but I didn't.
I could have just gone home that night.
I could have hid my feelings like normal.
I could have continued to be happy.
I could have, but I didn't.
He could have left the blind men blind.
He could have left the sick, sick.
He could have condemned us from the start.

Take My Hand - Let's Go On A Journey (Dec 11, 2008)
The clouds were blowing in, the sky began to darken.
The sun faded, then disappeared as it was hidden away.
Night and day I prayed, prayed to see the light again.
Each prayer lessened the hope of seeing your shinning ray.
I didn't understand yet I waited. I prayed. I hoped. I believed.
Like a clear May afternoon, you opened up my skies.
Your light shined once more, warming everything it touched. Me.
My hope, fully restored. I continue toward the prize.
You don't understand. Neither do I fully. But I believe.
I believe in the power of Him, I believe in His plan.
Together, side by side. Hand in Hand. Cheek to cheek.
Do you feel what I feel? Do you believe we can?
Trust that was vacant, has found a place in my heart.
Hope that'd been removed, returned once again.
Peace I never felt, now overwhelms my being.
Love was destroyed, could it reappear in the end?
Only He knows the future, only He knows the end.
It's not for us to worry, not for us to fear.
Join me now, follow me dearest, as we give in to His will.
He'll take away our doubt, and remove every tear.
How could I doubt your love? It has never failed me.
Turn my eyes Father, Turn my eyes to the Lamb.
Shine your light on me. Radiate yourself within me.
Help me Jesus. Help me to be that man.
The sun faded, then disappeared as it was hidden away.
Night and day I prayed, prayed to see the light again.

I didn't understand yet I waited. I prayed. I hoped. I believed.

How could I doubt your love? It has never failed me.
Turn my eyes Father, Turn my eyes to the Lamb.
Shine your light on me. Radiate yourself within me.
Help me Jesus. Help me to be that man.
Day and Night (Nov 13, 2008)
Day and night, I talked to you my God.
Every second, on my knees begging for your smile.
My ways are human, they're all that I know.
I asked for your peace, haven't felt it in awhile.
Day and night, sorrow came crashing in my soul.
Like waves upon the shore, my sandy heart washed away.
Who am I, why am I here, what is my purpose?
The moment of your return my Lord, OH WHAT A DAY!
Day and night, my heart searched to be found.
Every moment, eyes scanning the heavens for a sign.
Your ways are your own, they have no equal.
This gift you've offered, could it really be MINE?
Day and night, eyebrows have entered my mind.
How can I deserve this Lord, this amazing gift.
My face lights up, my heart jumps all around.
In your constant mercy, it is my hope you lift.

New Horizen (Nov 7, 2008)
The sun is rising in the East. How long since I've seen its rays.
A new day is beginning. The one before seems so long ago.
The beating is back, the nervousness returned.
What does God have planned? No one yet knows.
Happiness has returned to my life. I praise you my Savior.
When I was weak, you gave me strength. I was down and you lifted me.
I cried out to you, unclear of your voice. You persisted and stayed at my side.
All that you give me, I do not deserve. My life is yours, I give it all to Thee.
The days seem much brighter. The nights more beautiful.
The people more friendly. Enemies are harder to find.
My insides flutter at the thought. How could it be?
My body quivers. You're always on my mind.
