Gotta Keep Singing...

There's way too much to say about these last two months...

So I won't say anything right now... I just want to "sing."
I pray these lyrics make you smile as much as they've made me smile.

Over My Head by Brian Littrell

I tried to figure it out
Time and time again and time again
I guess there's just some things I'll never understand
'Cause Your ways aren't our ways
But deep down in my soul, down in my soul
There is one thing I know that I know

I'm in over my head
Right where I wanna be
I'm so lost within Your love
The love that always covers me
So high, so deep, so wide
A strong and cleansing tide
My soul has found a place to rest
I'm in over my head

I've been holding on
Now I'm letting go, just letting go
Gonna let Your love carry me away
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm surrounded by the truth
And I can feel the current pulling me
Deeper into You

I'm in over my head
Right where I wanna be
I'm so lost within Your love
The love that always covers me
So high, so deep, so wide
A strong and cleansing tide
My soul has found a place to rest
I'm in over my head

You see me for who I am
You did reach out Your hand
You made me understand
That Your love has always covered me

By Your Side by Meggan De Jong
(written while working on our beautiful Morning Star ministry sailboat at shipyard two months ago)

What is this life
if not lived for you?
What is my goal for each day
if I don't listen to what you say?:

"Seek first my face,
and look for me here in this place.
I'm right by your side."

This life is too short
to be driftin' off course;
So give me the grace for today,
I'll let you worry 'bout tomorrow...

('Cause you said):

"Seek first my face,
and look for me here in this place.
I'm right by your side...

"I'm not tryin' to hide,
just open your eyes.
Let me be your guide,
and make the world ask why...

(And remember I said):

"Seek first my face,
and look for me here in this place.
'Cause I'm all around you.
Oh, Let me astound you.
Remember, I'm the one who found you,
and I'll stick closely by your side
and help my name to be lifted high."

I'm going to go sing and play some more at the piano now. Ah, THANK YOU Lord for the refreshment of FINALLY being able to play a piano more often...
