These things I know

 

                                                 Amy..

                                                 When I lay in bed asleep it is God’s eyes that watch over me

                                                 When I go through the day it is God’s hands that lead me

                                                 When I am sad and alone it is God’s arms that hold me

                                                 When I sing Gods praise, it is God’s heart that rejoices

 

                                                 God..

                                                 When I see Amy sleeping my eyes are upon her

                                                 When she starts her new day my hands guide her

                                                 When I feel her sadness and loneliness I hold her

                                                 When I hear her sing my angels join her

 

                                                 So no matter what we do or how we feel

                                                 God is here to help us still

                                                 To lead us through each and every day

                                                 This is just his loving way

 

                                                 Though sometimes I want to run and hide

                                                 I stop to ask the question why

                                                 For god hears and sees it all

                                                 He’s even there when I fall

 

                                                 I know that all these things are true

                                                 It is my life’s story that brought me to you

                                                 The open arms you stretched out to me

                                                 Now hold me for eternity

 

                                                 So one day when my life here ends

                                                 My new one with you will surely begin

                                                 So hold me up high so I can see

                                                 The wonderful things you have in store for me

 

                                                 As the angels and I will sing

                                                 Glory to Jesus our awesome king

                                                 Glory to Jesus our awesome king

                                                 Glory to Jesus our awesome king

 

                                                            

                               

 

 

                                                                                                                 I can only imagine

 

                                                                                                  I can only imagine the love that Jesus has

                                                                                                  What he went through makes me so sad

                                                                                                  Lying there on his cross the way that he did

                                                                                                  Just because he loves us his life here came to an end

                                                                                                   

                                                                                                  The pain he went through when his hands were nailed

                                                                                                  And despite all his pain his faith did not fail

                                                                                                  They beat him with whips, the crown scared his head

                                                                                                  All this he allowed so that we could all live

                                                                                                   

                                                                                                  I can only imagine what that love must be like

                                                                                                  To give it all up so we can have life

                                                                                                  Even the ones who caused him his pain

                                                                                                  He loved like his children oh I praise his name

                                                                                                   

                                                                                                  Now that He is gone from this place that we live

                                                                                                  His Holy Spirit lives on it power within

                                                                                                  The power to love the power to forgive

                                                                                                  As Jesus did us on that cross way back then

                                                                                                   

                                                                                                  I can only imagine what the day will be like

                                                                                                  When I see him in heaven as king

                                                                                                   

                                                                                                  I know that one day I will experience that love

                                                                                                  That he shows us now from far up above

                                                                                                  The days grow closer these things I know true

                                                                                                  I am ready for him he is ready for you

                                                                                                   

                                                                                                  Are you ready?  I can only imagine.

 

                                                                                                                 

                                                 

 

                                                                 Sounds of Music

 

                                                 I wish I could hear the sounds of the birds

                                                 I wish I could hear  simple words

                                                 Just any sound for me would do

                                                 But instead of hearing sounds, this is what I do.

                                                 When a bird is flying high up in the sky

                                                 I think of his freedom as he flies.

                                                 When a tree leans from the wind catching it's leaves

                                                 I think of all of the beauty that God put here for me.

                                                 Although I don't hear the way that most people do,

                                                 I do know sounds of music, just different than you.

                                                 When I look up into the sky

                                                 And the clouds are moving swiftly by

                                                 I can almost see the angels as they sing

                                                 and Jesus lays out their beautiful music for me

                                                 So in this world of silence I must live

                                                 But I seem to hear sounds of Jesus in the wind

                                                 His love covers me from day to day

                                                 It is the music in my life that takes my breath away.

                                                 One day soon, I will be able to hear

                                                 The sounds of the trumpets when Jesus comes here

                                                 So until this day comes, I will patiently wait

                                                 As I listen to the music that I see everyday

                                                 So is it different in seeing music, rather than hearing it?

                                                 I don't think so J
