I thought of recording you tonight,
your tantrum and cries so loud.
So you could see in later years,
the way you used to pout.
The little things we fight over,
are simple now and then
But lessons learned in fighting,
are important just the same.
Like how we don't always get what we want,
but always what we need.
Because God loves us so much,
to tell us no, even when we pleed.
And how we need to stop and listen,
to those who know what's best.
Because God puts others in our lives,
to help us pass life's tests.
And how we need to be nice
and polite to others who pass by.
Because God loves us all the same
and is sad when we make others cry.
So remember when we disagree
that mom and dad love you still.
And we always want whats best for you,
so fight for you we will!

: All I know is, if you don't figure out this something, you'll just stay ordinary, and it doesn't matter if it's a work of art, or a taco, or a pair of socks! Just create something... new, and there it is, and it's you, out in the world, outside of you, and you can look at it, or hear it, or read it, or feel it... and you know a little more about... you. A little bit more than anyone else does... Does that make any sense at all?" Quote from PS I LOVE YOU

Today
Today is all I can think about.
Today is all I can see
Tomorrow is another worry
Who knows what tomorrow may be.
When facing the trials of today
I pray good deeds I would do
But if with that I fail
Thank goodness I can lean on you.
Though life is hard at this moment
Your grace and mercy I know
Will bring me through to the sunshine
Each day a little stronger I grow.
I may have not done the right thing
I may have not done wrong
You hold me every moment in your hands
To you I will always belong.
Thank you Lord for today
Another chance to be free
To speak of your incredible goodness
And how you have saved me.
Tomorrow I am not promised
Tomorrow I may not see
Lord, let me cherish each moment
For today you have given me.

Lord let me be a Mary
Chorus
When I look into the mirror and don't like what I see
I dream of someone different that I would like to be
When life gets me down and I can't stand to be me
Lord please, Let be me a Mary
Her life was small and simple,when the angel came that day
and told her of her future and the part she got to play
A child only herself betrothed to a man she loved
Though innocent he'd feel betrayed by someone up above
To have the baby Jesus as a child of her own
Lord give me that kind of courage, to be that kind of strong.
Chorus
When I look into the mirror and don't like what I see
I dream of someone different that I would like to be
When life gets me down and I can't stand to be me
Lord please, Let be me a Mary
When she heard the Lord was coming to visit their way
she leaves the work to Martha and goes out to play
Time with Him would be more important than the chores of the day
Through all the busy moments by His side she would stay
Lord, help me take the time to hear you and to pray
And not to let the busyness of this World keep me away
Through all the noise of this world, I want to hear your voice
When faced with Your glory they made the right choice
The miracles and wonder of knowing you,
humbled them and gave them sight clear and true
Lord let me be a Mary, to know you intimately
A woman with integrity I really want to be
He healed her from seven demons, afflicted for so long,
She traveled to be by His side, when this world had done him wrong
Perfume and oils she would pour on His broken body that lay
In a tomb that was meant for another, but the stone was rolled away
When others ran in fear from who they didn't see
To her He showed himself first, What an honor that would be!
Chorus
When I look into the mirror and don't like what I see
