WHERE DO YOU FIND YOUR RELIGION

There is a thought inside my tired head: if it could speak, it would decide if it was strong or weak. If it could only talk about things that would be said with every blink of an eye, it would start to undress itself and let the confessions begin,...

Rising Son

It's such a beautiful sight!
When the sun rises from the night,
It lights up the sky,
And makes everything bright

Beauty is when the sun does rise,
It's always beautiful when the sun does rise.

Clouds may cast shadows,
But still we see...

Happiness.

Happiness.

Happiness is a word of five letters.
Though hardly we can find it in us.
But can find this word in many books.

A happy man never seek happiness.
He knows it is already in him.
So hanker after happiness is emptiness.

He knows...

sorry that I wasn't enough

I wish that I was good enough,
then you wouldn't have treated me that way.
I wish I was good enough,
then maybe you wouldn't have had to stray.
I wish I was good enough,
to make your love for me grow stronger.
I wish I was good enough,
then...

Make It End

10 years, or more...
More than just a few closed doors

This sorrow has no end,
But you said it'd be okay.
I only want to cry,
But it seems this well has run dry

Still,
I remember you promised
to wipe away every tear from my eyes
Why...

Buddy

Buddy

Hey Buddy, can you spare me an ear?
I’ve got a terrible notion my time is near.
What have I done with my life as it went?
How have my investments been spent?

How have I lived my life? How have the bells tolled?
How have chances laid...

Father

Father

Most of my life you were defined by your love,
One of first eyes I saw, whom I thought the world of.
You kept me straight and narrow,
Taught me to shoot like an arrow.

You set the bar high,
Always watching me learn to fly.
You...

SO CRUMBLE MOUNTIANS

SO CRUMBLE MOUNTAINS

Lord Jesus I just want to praise Your Name
Knowing nothing will ever be the same
As it was long before, at the start
When I first heard the knock at the door of my heart

I will not be afraid to trust in You
For by...

SINS MADNESS

SIN'S MADNESS

Deep in my madness, I was found by God
Lost in darkness, there I found His light
You tell me I'm wrong, that my faith is rather odd
I tell you to listen, His Grace makes me right

But my Salvation is worth any Price
You...

SINCE IVE BEEN GONE

SINCE I'VE BEEN GONE

Since I've been Gone
Nothing's changed for me
Years moved us on
From where we used to be

I remember how it was

 In the age of remember when
We'd laugh just because
It felt good to laugh again

Since I've been Gone...

Thrill

Thrill


Say what you will about the thrill;
That moment’s rush when you feel the chill.
Capture the moment, the rest you fill

To avoid that looming void,
Sobering tactics you tacitly deployed,
As the return to reality you narrowly avoid.

SILENT I CAN'T BE

SILENT I CANT BE

Too often we're told be silent
Why can't we just be quiet?
But on my God alone I'm reliant
Quiet? I'm gonna cause a riot!!!

I'm gonna SHOUT MY PRAISE about
Gonna PRAISE MY JESUS to all
Come on believers, it's time to...

SILENCE FALLS

SILENCE FALLS

I saw the storm arise
The lightning flash,
Blinding my eyes
Thunder crash
As the waves roar
Towards a distant shore

I fell silent, as He stood
As the wind tore past His hair
then He spoke, as only He could
“Be still!”...
