WHY YOU?©

2009-02-11T16:01:00.000-08:00

WHY YOU?

Glass, metal, and car parts everywhere
That bang sounds so loud and perfectly clear
Fear, shock, trauma, and pain
Are we dead or alive? This is so insane!

Riding in a van on a bright sunny day
Laughing and talking the time away
From out of nowhere, in an instant, our lives changed so quick
Was this real or some kind of crazy movie flick?

Suffering the anguish of losing a loved one, so hard to bare,
How does our Father decide whose life He will spare?
Question upon question constantly running through our minds,
Will we ever know why it was not our time?

The loss of our sister hurts so very much
Missing her laugh, care and tender, loving hugs
We know in our hearts that she's gone to a far better place
Fond memories of times spent can never be replaced.

Cherrianne, you're missed by so many, I promise you this
We are so grateful for the memories given, that we truly miss
You are in our hearts always, forever in time,
Our special family together, so loving and kind.

We know that you're our angel protecting us from harm,
Your work with our Father has just begun,
Our praises shall forever ring out in the heavens so clear,
In our soul and hearts you are held so dear.

Dedicated to Cheryl Ann McKinney, our sister and friend,

YESHUA HELD US IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND©

2009-02-10T18:18:00.000-08:00

YESHUA HELD US IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND

Yeshua held us in the palm of His hand,
Gave us this chance to live once again
An accident occurred bringing death to our door
Brought to our knees as never before
A tragedy so devastating - such a great loss
Our sister is now with our Savior who died on the cross

Our mission for Adonai is not yet complete
Little did we know how we'd first meet
This miracle of life, only He can give
Through music and praise we must glorify Him
Who knew what would happen on this special day?
Who knew we'd lose our sister in this tragic way?

Yeshua held us in the palm of His hand
Gave us a chance to carry out His plan
To write songs in honor of our sister who passed away
To give to Him thanks, honor and praise
Yeshua held us in the palm of His hand
Gave us this chance to live once again

Never did I realize all that He could do
The way He can pick out just me or you
For a mission to let many others know
Through our testimony of faith that daily grows
He saved us from death and gave us new life
Through the power of Yeshua, He spared our lives

I felt His hand carry me as if suspended in air
And set me down softly, His angels were there
I heard His voice saying those words so clear
That He held us in His hand and we have nothing to fear
It is still so amazing that its difficult to express
Now we must show Him that we'll do our very best

Yeshua held us in the palm of His hand
Gave us a chance to carry out His plan
To write songs in honor of our sister who passed away
To give to Him thanks, honor and praise
Yeshua held us in the palm of His hand
Gave us this chance to live once again

Written by Bert Calderon
This poem was written in honor of our Sister, Cherrianne McKinney. She was a talented writer, a gifted prophetess, a woman of God, a great friend, and our true Mishpocha. She was taken from us on our way to band practice suddenly as we were struck in a T Bone fashion by a young driver who ran a stop sign and was high on drugs. We don't understand how else but by Yeshua that Richard and I are still alive, but we certainly know that HE HELD US IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND to spare our lives. We miss Cherrianne tremendously and she will be in our hearts and thoughts daily. In tribute to her and to Yeshua we give you this song/ poem.

WHEN WILL WE KNOW?©

2009-01-21T16:58:00.000-08:00

When will we know?

When will we know?
In what direction we are going
When will we know?
If this uncertainty will end
When will we know?
If our thoughts will come to pass
When will we know?
If our dreams will be reality
When will we know?
That our faith is our belief
When will we know?
Whether we are being deceived
When will we realize?
That Yeshua is the only truth
When will we realize?
It is through Him that we gain eternal life
When will we know?
That He is our Salvation
When will we know?
That accepting Him is our only hope
When will we know …….

KEEP THAT DREAM ALIVE©

2009-01-14T02:01:00.000-08:00

KEEP THAT DREAM ALIVE

Got dreams of rising to great success
Got dreams of goals running through my head
Got dreams of that one special love in my life
Got dreams in my mind as I lay in bed at night

Without these dreams I would not have any goals
Without these dreams I’d fear the unknown
Without these dreams my life would stagnate
Without these dreams I couldn’t appreciate

I must never give up this great hope
Even when difficulties make it so hard to cope
Dreams……… I need to keep that dream alive
Dreams........ They tell much about my life

Dreams of you forever on my mind
Dreams that last forever in time
Dreams of our future and life together
Those dreams will stay in my mind forever.

Keep that dream - keep it alive
Our dreams we need to coincide
To make our dreams our reality
Our dreams together of just you and me……..

MY SPECIAL LADY©

2009-01-06T05:59:00.000-08:00

MY SPECIAL LADY

I close my eyes and what do I see?
Your eyes, your hair, my special lady,
You bring me love I never knew before,
You are the one I truly adore.

Can’t wait to hold you in my arms once again,
It is on your love that I fully depend,
Any time apart is so difficult to take,
All I can do is be patient and wait.

I close my eyes and what do I see?
Your image in my mind, I clearly see,
The image of your beauty is embedded in my head,
It is only to you that my heart is led.

Such charm and grace, so sweet and kind,
My one greatest love, forever in time,
My special lady, so grateful am I,
You are my partner and best friend for life.

I close my eyes and what do I see,
Visions of your face and exquisite beauty,
I close my eyes and see you there next to me,,
In my heart forever, you’re my special lady.

A LIFE WITHOUT YOU©

2009-01-05T02:57:00.000-08:00

A Life Without You

A life without you is no life at all
The best times ever, that I can recall
Are when I followed the righteous path you gave
And realized how blessed I am to be saved

To be cleansed and reborn, so grateful I am
To have been chosen by you to fulfill your plan
The covenant you gave and promised to me
Are so true, as they are, forever binding.

Yeshua, I cannot change my past mistakes
You’ve shown me a new path that I must take
So blessed am I to know you, my king
You are to me, my everything

The one with whom I can share my innermost thoughts
The one who has given me the shalom that I’ve sought
Abba, our Father brought this gift of true love
Given His Son from the heavens above

A life without you is no life at all
Yeshua, Yeshua, you are my all
My life I now dedicate only to you
My heart and my soul belong to you

HOW CAN YOU JUSTIFY?©

2009-01-03T19:03:00.000-08:00

How can you justify?

How can you justify
All the things you’ve done wrong?
How can you tell me
To leave you alone?
Lost all my money
As you left me so broke.
Now as I try to recover
It’s so hard to maintain hope.

How can you justify
The pain you caused to me?
All I tried to do
Was help you with your needs.
How can you justify
All you took from me?
When I gave you all I could
Of my love and money.

Justify yourself
Cause to me you cannot,
I’ll give you one more chance
So try your best shot.
But you’d better do me right
Cause I can’t take it anymore.
This is the last time
I promise you - no more

You can’t justify
Your past mistakes,
Just take it as it is – that’s all it takes.
Make your amends and show sincerity,
Don’t live in the past, just show humility.
How can you justify
All the things you’ve done wrong?
You cannot justify the past for so long.

How can you justify……………………?

How can the world justify
All the damage that's been done?
Little innocent children
Being killed, with nowhere to run?
So many inequities - actions without reason
Things occurring all around with no rhyme or reason.
Plots made up by insane, power hungry, leaders,
Minds controlled by greed as they think they get nearer,
To their goals of taking over more and more,
Never enough for all they hope for.

How can this be justified........?

It can't.................

Eretz Yisrael

Verse 1:
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael

We must always protect our Holy land
All Jews and Gentiles must now join hands

Sanctified and blessed with Yeshua’s love
(go to chorus – then repeat to end)

Chorus:
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, How I love this Holy place
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Deserving of praise
Eretz Yisrael, Eretz Yisrael, Our Lord is One

DREAMS©

2008-12-27T06:37:00.000-08:00

DREAMS

Dreams, dreams, what do dreams mean?
Do they tell you a story of an upcoming scene?
How do we discern what’s a dream and what’s real?
Will this dream come true or will it remain just a dream?

I dreamt of good times and things we’ve done,
In my dreams, you are, my number one,
Wishing I could live my dreams out with you
Wishing all my greatest, dreams will come true.

Escaping far away in my wonderful dreams,
To places unknown that I’ve never seen,
Dreams with you are the best I recall,
Dreams of our future will tell all.

Sharing my innermost dreams with you,
I share all my thoughts and feelings with you,
Proving my love and devotion in my heart,
Dreams of you fulfill all the dreams I want.

LIES, LIES©

2008-12-27T03:19:00.000-08:00

LIES, LIES

Lies, lies, only meant to disguise,
To hide the truth, so many lies,
Lies have destroyed the greatest love stories in time,
Lies have played tricks on the greatest of minds.

Big lies and small lives – they’re all the same,
Often told for fear of creating great pain,
Told by many who can’t face the truth,
Through lies we’ve told, so often we lose.

Lying seemed easier than honesty at times,
However, they multiply so quickly, lie upon lie,
This deception and lying becomes so difficult to bear,
Lies all around me, lies everywhere.

Lied to by your partner about things they've done wrong,
Covering up the truth can’t last very long,
All I seek is to be honest and pure,
Lies, lies, no longer can I endure.

Lies, lies, please no more lies,
Lies, lies, only meant to disguise,
Lies, lies, create so much unnecessary pain,
Lies, lies, please never lie again.

WHITE©

2008-12-27T02:52:00.000-08:00

WHITE

White represents so many things,
Looking about me is white everything,
White is a color so clean and bright,
White reflects light whether day or night.

White linen, white sheets, so perfectly clean,
White dress at your wedding, so lovely it seems,
White snow everywhere on a bright winter morn,
What a lovely sight I grew to adore.

White tablecloths adorn the most perfect tables as we dine,
White linens accessorize, looking so clean and fine,
White uniforms all around us looking professional as can be,
White, I see everywhere, as I look all around me.

The full moon shines so brightly in the middle of the night,
White stars shine so vividly, what a miraculous sight !
White doves represent a love so pure,
White pills all about that we take as a a cure.

White powder has claimed so many lives,
An addiction that caused so many deceitful lies,
White angels, so lovely, created to help us in times of need,
White represents so many of God’s special blessings.

IN MY EYES©

IN MY EYES

In my eyes, you looked so thoroughly enticing,
In my eyes, you were quite inviting.
The way you gazed into my eyes,
Told me I aroused your innermost desires.

Was this real or just my imagination?
Did I create my own story or delusion?
Was I wanting love so intensely?
Was I seeking to love so completely?

I know in my heart there was no mistaking,
The attraction from the start was truly infatuating,
Yes! I wanted love to come my way.
Yes! This feeling I craved many a day.

In my eyes, I saw your sweetness and perfection.
In my eyes, there was an unmistakable attraction.
In my eyes, I found true love that was exciting.
In my eyes, we found each others love so gratifying.

In my eyes, I knew that we were destined for each other.
In our eyes, we both saw the need to join together.
In my eyes……..In our eyes…….

OUR MAGICAL MOMENT©

2008-12-26T09:49:00.000-08:00

OUR MAGICAL MOMENT

Our magical moment
I waited for so long
Our magical moment
Carried within me for so long
Our magical moment
As we brought new life
To this world of such uncertainty.

Such a wonderful surprise
It was not one, but two,
This magical moment from a love so true
Twin boys, a gift to cherish for life,
This moment, unmatched by any other
This moment we share, just us, together.
This memory, this moment, forever in time.

Devoted, we are, to these twins we bore,
A blessing in our hearts, we both hoped for,
Our lives as a family shall begin anew,
As we journey together with our life so new.
What beauty we behold in this moment we share,
Our boys, for them we will always be there.
Our magical moment …. We are so grateful for!

Dedicated to Joelle and Stanley Godek
and their newborn twins, Anthony and Nicholas - my God sons

PAST THE POINT©

PAST THE POINT

Past the point of no return
There is no turning back.
Past the point of right or wrong
You’ve given me the love I lacked.

Past the point of no return
Since our eyes first met.
Past the point of no return
Your smile is the best it can get.

Past the point of no return
There is no denying.
Past the point of no return
All inhibitions are dying.

Past the point of no return
You’ve unlocked my heart.
Past the point of no return
You’re all in life I ever want.

Past the point of no return
Your touch enthralls me.
Past the point of no return
Your words excite me.

Past the point of no return
Your kiss devours me.
Past the point of no return
Your love empowers me.

AS HE SLEEPS©

2008-12-26T09:10:00.000-08:00

AS HE SLEEPS

As he sleeps, I watch
I watch him filled with peace
As he sleeps, I see
The little boy inside,
Of the man who’s in love with me.

As he sleeps, I think
Of all the words we spoke,
Of his arms around me
Of his love abounding.
Of the man to whom I’ve committed my life.

As he sleeps, I dream
Of all that he can do
Of all that is unseen
Of all within his reach
Of how much I believe and trust in him.

As he sleeps, I contemplate
The many things we’ve shared.
Our deepest thoughts
Our deepest desires
Of he and I forever in time.

He is my life
My commitment, my partner
My best friend, my lover
I am so proud to be his wife,
Even as he sleeps……

NEVER DID I REALIZE©

2008-12-26T00:32:00.000-08:00

NEVER DID I REALIZE

Never did I realize as I gazed upon your face
That my heart would leap in pure ecstasy
Not sure of where this would all lead to
As my excitement swelled beyond control
I tried to stop this inner explosion
Of feelings, of thoughts, of pure emotion
Passionate thoughts running rampant through my brain
Like the rush of a waterfall with all its awesome power

My heart soared upwards so quickly
Making my head spin in a whirlwind of erotic thoughts
Bringing me to a place I’ve never been before
Only dreamt of, in my innermost desires, only hoped for
Never did I realize that this intensity could be mine
This heat, this fire, this incredible desire,
Never did I realize that I’d find someone like you
That could bring me a passion, a love so honest and true

Never did I realize…………..that this could all be mine
Never did I realize…………..

HOW MUCH LONGER?©

2008-12-21T17:36:00.001-08:00

HOW MUCH LONGER?

How much longer before we are one?
How much longer till I’m overcome?
By your passionate kisses
By your passionate love

How much longer before I let out?
The cries of hunger… of love that’s inside….
How much longer before this flicker becomes a flame?
Before you take me in your arms and nothing else remains?

How much longer before your body
Is here next to mine?
How much longer before we intertwine
Before we become as one?

How much longer before
I give to you
What I have held back
for the one
Whose love is true?

How much longer
before I feel Your sweet kisses
As they cause my love to overflow?
How much longer
Must I wait, hesitate?
How much longer
must I crave your sweet fires?
How much longer
must I hold back my desires?
For you…. Only you!

When you touch me
My body aches,
With love for only you,
A love that only two can share
Who can understand just what they bear?

How much longer
Before you are mine….and I am yours,
Before we intertwine our hearts completely?
How much longer
Before it is no longer two… but one?
Within your love, …. I am undone.

WHAT IS THIS LOVE?©

What is This Love?

What is this love,
That consumes me?
What is this love`,
That overtakes me?
What is this love,
That overpowers me?
What is this love?

What is this love,
That overwhelms me?
What is love
That overshadows me?
What is this love
That overtakes me?
It makes me cry out
Take me !

What is this love
That has turned me?
What is this love
That spurns me?
What is this love
That elates me?
And drives me to
my knees.

What is this love
That brings me such joy?
What is this love
That makes me cry?
What is this love,
That makes me sigh?
What is this love?

This love is all consuming
It takes my breath away.
This love has caused my
heart to stop
It keeps me here
To stay!

This love that comes
From heaven above,
Yet burns with fires
Of hell
This love bids me
Come closer to where
Sin dwells.

It is bittersweet
This love we have
And I cannot live without it
Yet to live with it is dangerous.
And your love is
All I desire !

YOUR EYES

Your eyes, so awesome to behold,
Your eyes, pierce into my soul,
Your eyes look into my heart,
You eyes, my secrets they unlock.

Your eyes bring me to my knees,
Your eyes can take me where you please,
One glance from your eyes
I am undone,
One glance from your eyes
I completely succumb.

I succumb to your desires,
In your eyes I feel your fire,
In your eyes I lose my senses,
In your eyes I have no defenses,
One glance from your eyes
Is all I require,
To fulfill all my passion and desires,
Your eyes !

THINKING OF YOU©

2008-12-20T22:50:00.001-08:00

Thinking of you

Thoughts of you always on my mind,
Visions of beauty and words so kind,
Just like fresh sunshine you brighten my days,
Your heavenly scent blows me away.

Your smile brings me true happiness deep inside,
Fond memories we share of wonderful times,
Through difficulties we’ve stayed loyal and true,
No matter what, I’ll always love you.

I realize now more than ever before,
That it’s you whom I truly love and adore,
Without you in my life I’d feel lost and alone,
Can’t wait to see you and return home.

BURNIN' DESIRE©

Burnin' Desire

Each time I envision your beauty in my mind,
Arousing my emotions deep down inside,
The erotic, sensual way you move,
Carries itself in all you do.

So proud am I that we’re together,
All I’ve dreamt of forever and ever,
Longing for your touch and incredible kiss,
Whenever we’re together, I’m in heavenly bliss,

You arouse in me such burnin’ desire,
Set my heart on body totally on fire,
Hunger to be with you all day and night,
I want you and need you more each day.

INSIDE YOU©

2008-12-17T07:24:00.000-08:00

INSIDE YOU
Should I stay or should I go?
Is it yes or is it no?
Are you mine or are you not?
I just don’t know where to start.

Inside me is a fire,
That burns like no other desire,
Yet at times it seems out of reach,
Is there something life desires to teach?

Sometimes the light shines bright,
But then comes the darkest night,
Then I cry out from the night,
Bring me into your light.

It’s in your light where I belong,
It’s for your love that I long,
So come and take me to your side,
I long to feel your love inside.

THERE WAS A MAN©

2008-12-15T17:14:00.000-08:00

THERE WAS A MAN
There was a man, a quiet man
Who came to me, and took my hand
His eyes were green, just as the sea
And he took my heart from me.

There was a man, with a soft voice
And as he spoke, I had no choice
But to believe each word he said
He took my hand my life he led.

There was a man who paid the price
Who gave his life a sacrifice
He gave it all so I might be
His bride, his wife to be

I love this man with all my heart
And from this man I’ll never part
He is the lover of my life
And to him I’ll be a wife
And to him I’ll be his wife…

WHEN GOD CREATED YOU©

2008-12-13T06:07:00.000-08:00

WHEN GOD CREATED YOU

When God created you,
He created the perfect match for me,
He knew exactly what to do,
God knew exactly what I needed,
My heart’s desire, He had heeded.

When God created you,
He knew what would turn,
These eyes towards you,
He knew exactly what to do,
He turned my heart towards you.

When God created you,
He gave to me a love,
I never knew before,
He made my heart to sing,
He made my spirit to soar.

You are the one I’ve longed for,
You are the one I’ve waited for,
You are the one I live for,
I thank God for creating you,
The only one I truly adore!

LONELY©

2008-12-07T13:14:00.000-08:00

LONELY

Sitting in solitude in a lonely cell,
Locked up behind bars, cold and hungry as hell,
Ringing that telephone – no one answers your calls,
Letters unanswered – seems like no one care at all.

Last person on the train, all by yourself,
Invited to a dance, alone with no one else
Sitting at a table for two with no company,
Last flower from a bouquet, pretty as can be.

Last book placed all alone on a shelf,
Last student in the class with no one else
Everywhere you go why do people stare?
All you want to know is that someone still cares.

Wishing I was not feeling so alone,
Fear of facing so many unknowns,
Always feeling sad, lonely as can be,
Lonely, so lonely please help me!

FEAR©

2008-12-07T13:08:00.000-08:00

FEAR

Fear is standing at the edge of a cliff six thousand feet high,
Fear is searching for the rip cord while flying through the sky,
Fear is being surrounded in the ocean by sharks ready to attack,
Fear is having a mugger placing a gun in your back.

Fear is being lost in a jungle being left all alone,
Fear is traveling through space into the unknown,
Fear is riding on a rollercoaster at an excessive speed,
Fearing is watching a loved one in pain as they bleed.

Tires screeching from a high speed chase,
Surrounded by guns pointing directly at your face,
Walking all alone prime target for attack,
No one there to watch your back.

Fear, fear is in your mind,
Fear, fear is so easy to find,
Fear, fear the only thing to fear,
Is the fear in your mind and the voices you hear.

DAD©

2008-12-07T13:06:00.000-08:00

DAD

Dad – a man I look up to,
A man whose honesty is tried and trued,
A father, husband, teacher and guide,
The love for his family is foremost on his mind.

Taught me so much about how to live my life,
Being there for me through troubles and strife,
Always gave me everything I need,
Told me to be the best that I could be.

Sometimes didn’t show my appreciation,
And made poor decisions while in a depression,
But my mind recalls great memories of our past,
Of great times shared and lessons I’ve amassed.

Grateful Dad for all you’ve done,
In my book your number one,
The best Dad around – so blest you are mine,
I think of you Dad – you’re always on my mind.

MOM©

MOM

Mom, you’ve always been there for me,
Given me love, care, and opportunities,
Guided me in life to do what is right,
Been there for me any time of day or night.

I know my love I don’t always show,
But you mean more to me than you’ll ever know,
Missing all the special things you do,
That’s why I need to say, “mom I love you”.

TO MY WIFE©

2008-12-07T12:37:00.000-08:00

TO MY WIFE

When we took our vows as man and wife,
We committed to each other for the rest of our lives,
In sickness and health, for richer or poorer,
Through troubles and strife, for better for worse.

For so many years we’ve rode our ups and downs
Confident that we’d both stick around,
Taking for granted that we’d always be there,
And through it all, still knowing we care.

I realize that words alone cannot cure
The cloud of wrongs we’ve both endured,
Our bond is blessed by our Lord above
It’s difficult to withstand excessive tough love.

As I look at the pictures of you and our kids,
Fond memories I reflect, of things we both did,
Now I must prove that I can remain straight,
I promise to you, it’ll be worth the wait.

Totally through with stupid drug games,
Wasting our lives was totally insane
Yet I know in my heart what’s most important to me,
Is to be with you for all eternity.

We owe it to each other and our family,
To pull together and fulfill our destiny,
To raise our children to be the best they can be,
Our family together with just you and me.

LOCKED UP STATE OF MIND©

2008-12-07T12:32:00.000-08:00

LOCKED UP STATE OF MIND

I know not what I knew not before
I know less now than I ever knew before
Each day that passes by creates more confusion,
Waiting for a deal seems like a delusion.

Locked up all day, locked up all night,
Depressed as can be, none of this time’s right,
Caring less each day, cause nothing seems to help,
No matter what you do – you’re stuck by yourself

Waiting for the next court date – don’t know what to do
Put off month to month – nothing you can do,
Every time I think I know what’s going on,
It actually seems even longer till I can get home.

Life’s up in the air with so much confusion
All stressed out – this jail thing’s an illusion,
Losing all you had, feeling so stuck,
System’s got you trapped – all messed up

I know not what I knew not before
I know less now than I knew before
So little left to really hope for
Can’t wait to get out of this locked door.

TAXI MAN©

TAXI MAN
Cell phone ringin’ 24 hours a day,
Taxi man’s got no time to play,
Pickin’ up people from places unknown,
Takin’ them places no one else goes.

Taxi man, what you thinkin’ about?
Doin’ dirty deeds while you drivin’ all about,
Pickin’ up them dealers and whores,
Takin’ them places no body knows.

Cool as a cucumber, slick as a cat,
Lights on, meter on, got it down pat,
Jumpin’ in quick, set your butt down,
Taxi man’s movin’ quickly through the town.

Tell him your troubles, tell him your woes,
Tell him if you need to be connected to them whores,
All night and day, cell phone’s ringin’ off the hook,
Gotta move quick, gotta hurry up and book.

Taxi man, Taxi man, loner in the night,
Taxi man, taxi man, look for his light,
Taxi man, taxi man, drivin’ blue and white,
Taxi man, taxi man, quickly out of sight.

TORE ME APART©

2008-12-07T12:10:00.000-08:00

TORE ME APART

Think of you often each day
Feel badly that circumstances led us astray,
Realize now how much you sacrificed
Took care of me through the worst times of my life,

So many obstacles got in our way
Drugs and wrong decisions pushed me away,
It hurts me so bad that I turned my back on you,
But it got to the point that I didn’t know what else to do

Pictures of your pain flash daily through my mind
Drove me crazy time after time,
It hurt me to watch you hurting yourself,
And nothing I did ever seemed to help.

It still pains my heart as I recall your distress
The times you cried begging for help,
I want you to know that it tore me apart,
You’ll always have a piece of my heart.

Pray for your well being and happiness in life,
For you to keep strong with the will to survive,
Want you to know I’m still grateful to you,
For caring for me as only you could do.

BROKEN HEARTED©

2008-12-07T12:05:00.000-08:00

BROKEN HEARTED

Broken hearted since I’ve been gone,
Thinking of you from dusk to dawn,
Missing your smile and beautiful face,
Memories of us that can’t be replaced

So difficult with no way to reach you by phone,
Letters unanswered, I feel so alone,
So sorry I am for errors in the past,
In my mind I thought forever we’d last.

I now realize things I’ve done wrong,
Didn’t communicate or show faith for so long,
Pushed you away without realizing what I’d done,
But to me, you’re always my number one.

Don’t want to lose you – need another chance,
To prove I can show care and romance,
To be the person we both know I can,
So give me another chance to be your man.

NEVER WANTED©

2008-12-07T12:00:00.000-08:00

NEVER WANTED

I never wanted to hurt you so bad
Nor bring tears to your eyes or make you feel sad,
To not respect your feelings and emotions,
Nor forget about commitment and devotion

Never wanted us to stray apart,
Never wanted to break your heart,
Never wanted to lose you or show disrespect,
Never realized where all time went.

Now I’ve had time to contemplate the past,
And realize what a perfect match,
We were and could be if you try once again,
And give me the chance to prove you can depend

On my word, care, compassion, and love,
On being there to lean on with loving hugs,
On my being there for you unconditionally
On us being together, just you and me.

CAN YOU?©

2008-12-07T11:56:00.000-08:00

CAN YOU?

While away it’s so hard to maintain,
Without you my thoughts are driving me insane
The one thing that I cling on to,
Is the vision of love between me and you,

Can I ever make up for the time that is lost
Can I have the chance to prove my remorse
Can we ever be like we were from the start?
Can you forgive my errs and allow us to restart?

Intensity of our love brings tears to my eyes,
Sad tears while apart – so difficult to disguise
Joyful tears for giving me a chance to apologize,
I need you my love for the will to survive.

Your friendship and love are my greatest blessings,
You’re as important to me as the air that we breathe,
My partner who’s always been there for me,
My soul mate, my heart, can you please forgive me?

INTERTWINED LIVES

Our lives are intertwined by commitments we’ve made
Great times we’ve shared can’t be taken away,
Our love is worth saving though times are rough,
Nothing can alter, that you’re the one I love

Some decisions I’ve made were drastic mistakes
Not being with you is so difficult to take,
Our future together is all I truly want
Praying for your forgiveness – please open your heart.

Think not of problems we’ve had in the past
Our relationship should be strong enough to last,
My promise to you is to show love and care
And prove to you that I’ll always be there.

IF ONLY©

IF ONLY

If only I hadn’t
done the things I did……
Wasting my life
From the time I was a kid…..
If only I hadn’t
Been so selfish and blind……
Leaving nothing but destruction
And bewilderment behind…….
If only I hadn’t
Turned my back on God’s love….
Searching for wickedness
Instead of looking above……..
If only you could give
Our love one more chance…..
I’d do everything right
For your happiness……
If only I could ask
One last thing from you
Don’t give up on us now
For all time I’ll be true…….

If only…….

TOGETHER WE’LL GET THROUGH

It’s times like this we must stay strong,
I’ll be there to help before too long,
It’s difficult I know, without me there,
Just remember how much I care.

Keep positive and together - we’ll get through,
We need each other because our feelings are true,
Striving to better ourselves each day,
The Lord will always provide a way.

As long as we maintain our goals,
Our relationship will strengthen and grow,
Together, I know we’ll get through,
Remember that “I am in love with you”.

Imagining being next to you lying side by side,
Knowing there is nothing I must hide,
Being totally myself while I am with you,
Such a perfect match, just us two.

So blessed am I to have you in my life,
The most perfect partner and wife,
Can’t wait to get past all we now face,
So I may prove my devotion to you cannot be replaced.

Love you and need you as my partner for life,
Your happiness is worth any sacrifice,
It is you and I forever in time,
I am yours and you are mine.

WE CHOSE ONE ANOTHER

Through disagreement, disappointments, and stressful times,
You’ve remained calm and strong – still able to smile,
The times we’ve shared are the best I recall,
Each day brings miracles above all.

Never change anything about our lives together,
Knowing in my heart we chose one another,
You gave me friendship and a sense of belonging,
You’ve brought me excitement and deep feelings.

You’ve shown me acceptance, wisdom, and faith,
You’ve shown me love, hope, and it all it takes,
My life’s been positive since we first met,
Being with you is the best it can get.

Visions of you forever on my mind,
Memories that last forever in time,
Times we’ve shared, Just you and I,
Made me so happy that I realize.

A relationship like ours I’ve always dreamed of,
Realizing in my heart that I’ve found true love.

You satisfy my needs as never before,
Being with you is all I hope for,
Consideration and care we must constantly show,
Together facing life’s unknowns.

To me, we make a perfect pair,
No one else for me, could ever compare.
Visions of you forever in my mind,
Memories and visions forever in time,

ONE NIGHT WITH MY KING©

ONE NIGHT WITH MY KING

One night with my King
In my life, he has changed everything
One night in his arms
I forget the world and all itʼs charms

One night with my king
Down deep inside, my spirit sings
A song of love and majesty
A song only my king can bring

One kiss from his lips
Reveals a passion I have missed
One moment in his eyes
All of my inhibition dies

One night in his fire
My passions grow, higher and higher
I long to fulfill all his desires
One night with my king
Has changed everything!

ARE YOU?

Are you the one who’ll stick by my side?
Are you the one who’ll always be mine?
Are you the one who’ll steal my heart?
Are you the one who'll fulfill all my wants?

I can be the one who’ll always show I care,
I can be the one who’ll be willing to share,
I can be the one who’ll be your best friend for life,
I can be the one with whom to spend the rest of our lives.

The times we’ve spent alone with each other,
Made me feel certain that we’re destined to be together,
That comfortable sensation – it feels so right,
Longing for your company day and night.

Assure me that you feel just the same,
That our hearts and emotions are on the same page,
So much we have to look forward to,
All I need is a sign from you.

To let me know that I’m the one for you,
That we will pursue this love so true,
That we’ll each do our share to bring us together,
And be Just Us, forever and ever !

SORRY MY LOVE©

SORRY MY LOVE

Driving me crazy not being with you,
Sharing together all the special things we do,
I apologize for all the mistakes I’ve made
Lost track of priorities, I’m sorry to say.

Had time to think and set my mind straight,
Being together is our destiny and fate,
Wish I could change what I’ve done wrong,
But I’ll be back before too long

This time apart is testing our bond,
We’ll make it because we share true love,
So wait for me till I return home,
And never again shall you be left alone.

EVERYBODY LOVES SOMEBODY - Song

I found a lady,
She had my baby,
She fulfilled my wildest dreams.

She came into my life,
And now we're man and wife,
She fulfilled my every need.

Chorus
Everybody wants somebody,
Everybody needs somebody,
Everybody loves somebody someday (repeat)

Guitar Break

My special lady,
She had our baby,
I know this wasn’t just a dream.

We bonded oh so tight,
Our family feels so right,
They were God’s gift and my blessing.

Refrain
We began our journey in life together
Depending only on each other,
So much love was in my heart
I can’t believe we fell apart

Back to verse melody

Now we’ve hit troubled times
I pray she’ll still be mine
She’s all in life I ever want

I'd give her anything
She is my everything
Her and our child is all I need

(Then 1st Chorus to end)
Chorus
Everybody wants somebody,
Everybody needs somebody,
Everybody loves somebody someday (repeat to end)

NO ONE

No one in my life has meant so much to me,
No one has made me feel such emotion and sensitivity,
No one has ever stolen my heart away,
No one’s made me feel love in so many ways.

You, my love, are my one and only,
Together, Just Us, for all eternity,
Blessed by our Lord with patience and love,
No one else was chosen by our Lord above.

We’ve been through so many trials and tribulations,
Feelings confused and much anticipation,
Love you more than any words can express,
You are, to me, the very best.

This is another test of our love,
Without you I’d never experience true love,
I totally dedicate myself to you,
No one else can make me feel like you do.

Confirms in my heart that you’re my #1 choice,
To spend my life with and share all I can,
Just please confirm that I’m your only man.

Your voice is so sweet – I never tire of you,
Your thoughts we share just between me and you.

The way you kiss drives me wild,

Thinking of you makes my heart do flips,
Love to hold you by your shapely hips.

The way you move turns me on so much,

Each caress from you is so inviting.

To put it simply – you are perfection to me,

LOVE IS©

Love Is

Love is kind, does not envy or parade,
It does not behave rudely, nor seek it’s own, nor have any age,
It rejoices in faith, cannot survive lies,
Bears and believes all things – hopes and endures all time.

Love never fails and consists of four main ingredients,
Abide, have faith, hope, and belief,
Be honest and true – do not deceive,
Often love is greater than the mind can conceive.

Love can bring great joy but also great pain,
Love is a feeling that runs through your veins,
Love envelops all your emotions from your heart to your soul,
Love is a sense of inner belonging that only you know.

Love encompasses such a vast array of emotions,
Love is care, consideration, honesty, and devotion,
Love is the one word most written about,
Love has no boundaries for sacrifices or doing without.

Love is a gift to cherish and never let go,
A sense of belonging deep in your soul,
It sometimes takes so long to finally realize,
When your destined to be together for the rest of your lives.

ALL I WANT©

Knowing in my heart that our love is forever in time,
All I really want is to share my life with you,
To share our dreams, fantasies, and the everyday things we do.

All I want is to show you love, understanding and care,
To unfold our dreams one by one as a pair,
All I need is to have you as my partner and wife,
Together, forever, for the rest of our lives.

Like the special qualities you possess that make you one of a kind.
The things you say bring special meaning to my life.

Your eyes sparkle when we’re together as you hold me so tight.
These things you do make me feel so comfortable and right.
Our life is a journey, that together we share,

As we discover all the things we both enjoy………
I love you Just Because you bring the best out of me,
Our life together is our goal and destiny.

CHAINS OF LOVE©

Chains of Love

Chains of love bind us together,
Dependent completely on one another,
A remarkable feeling I can’t ignore,
Every passing day I love you more.

Emotions and senses only you can arouse,
Can’t wait for you to become my spouse,
These chains of love have captured my heart,
Can’t stand this time being apart.

One day soon we’ll take our vows,
And surmount our problems by grace somehow,
Promising each other commitment and trust,
Our future together, JUST US !

SAVE YOUR LOVE©

2008-12-01T20:24:00.001-08:00

Save Your Love

Save your love for me to come home,
Don’t make me feel like our future’s unknown,
Give me a sign to prove that you feel,
That our commitment to each other is still sealed.

Can’t imagine life without you by my side,
We’re both suffering losses while I’m doing this time,
I realize it is difficult to wait all alone,
But it’s more trying for me not being home.

There are so many thoughts I anticipate,
Problems we are having I did not create,
The only solution is to ride out this time,
All I need is assurance you’re still mine.

Rekindle our love is what we must do,
Forgetting the bad times and begin anew,
Recollect the close moments we’ve shared together,
We need to hold on because for me, there can be no other.

A KALEIDOSCOPE OF MEMORIES©

2008-12-01T20:22:00.000-08:00

A kaleidoscope of memories run through my mind,
Of moments shared of special times,
Like walking on the beach as the sun goes down,
Holding hands and listening to the vibrant ocean sounds.

Listening to the waves as they bounce against the shore,
Watching the graceful birds flying – a sight we adore,
The clean scent envelopes us, so fresh and clean,
Gazing in your eyes as they sparkle and gleam.

Remembering all the wonderful times we’ve spent,
Never realizing how rapidly time went,
Thinking of these moments with just you and I,
Fond memories of us are always on my mind.

LOVING YOU©

Loving You

Loving you comes so naturally,
Magnetic attraction between you and me,
Arousing my senses and driving me wild,
Just being near you creates a huge smile.

In so many ways we seem different from each other,
But whenever I’m with you, I can’t think of any other,
You make me feel as I’ve never felt before,
Each day my love grows more and more.

Love your hair and sensual lips,
Your voluptuous body and curvateous hips,
Your beautiful skin is so soft to the touch,
Your tender caresses I love so much.

Loving you because you are so sweet and kind,
Loyal and true – so proud you are mine,
Intelligent and classy with charm and grace,
Loving you is a feeling so wonderfully great.

LONGING FOR YOU©

2008-12-01T18:57:00.000-08:00

Longing For You

Like a soft gentle breeze on a warm summer’s night,
So your touch is so inviting, it feels so right,
Just as a fresh field of flowers smells so lovely and fine,
Your heavenly scent runs constantly in my mind.

As beautiful as the songbirds most melodic of songs,
The sound of your voice is the one that I long,
The most colorful sunrise in the morn as I arise,
Reminds me of the sparkle in your captivating eyes.

Just as the universe is infinite with so many unknowns,
My love has no bounds and constantly grows,
Like a bright star in heaven that’s seen so clear,
You are my soul mate and partner whom I hold so dear.

Precious Moments

Precious moments of times spent with you,
So clear in my mind as the sky is blue,
Visions of beauty, sweet as can be,
The closeness we share, just you and me.

My sweet love I need you so much,
Miss your sensuous caring touch,
Only with you do I feel so complete,
No one else could ever compete.

This place in my heart you hold the key,
You alone fulfill all my needs,
You are my choice to be with for life,
As my partner, lover, best friend, and wife.

SAVE YOUR LOVE JUST FOR ME

Em //// C//// G//// D////

Saw you one day
I knew my dreams had come true
Your smile caught my eye
And I knew it was you

My heart skipped a beat
I couldn’t help myself
Didn’t know what to do
You made me feel so good

Save your love
Save your love just for me
Save your love
Save your love just for me

Just looking at your face
Made me long for your embrace
The warmth of your kiss
Is what I truly miss

You are so beautiful
So indescribable
You are so wonderful
You are so perfect to me

Your smile is all I want
You are #1 my heart
I never tire of you
You’re so perfect to me

Save your love
I’ll save my love for you
Save your love for me
I promise I’ll be true

You are so beautiful
So indescribable
You are so wonderful
You are so perfect to me

This Song Is Dedicated To Daniela

THINKING OF YOU©

2008-12-01T16:27:00.000-08:00

Thinking of You

Thoughts of you are always on my mind,
Visions of beauty and words so kind,
Like fresh sunshine, you brighten my days,
Your heavenly scent just blows me away.

Your smile brings me joy deep down inside,
Fond memories we share of wonderful times,
Through our difficulties we stayed loyal and true,
No matter what I always love you.

I realize now more than ever before,
How much you really mean and it’s you I adore,
Without you in my life I’d feel lost and alone,
Can’t wait to see you and return back home.

SO DEAR TO MY HEART©

2008-12-01T15:58:00.001-08:00

So Dear To My Heart

So dear to my heart, I need you so much,
I long to feel your gentle touch,
Missing hugging and holding you tight,
Your foremost in my thoughts each day and night.

Written by Bert Calderon

Memories of you

You fulfill all of my deepest desires,
Thoughts of you sets my heart on fire,
Your sexy, soft, and sensuous lips,
All the way down to your fingertips.

Your touch drives me wild, sends chills down my spine,
Your voice is so erotic, sweet, and kind,
Those shapely legs in sexy high heels,
Turns me on so much and fulfills all my needs.

Memories of all the special times with you,
Reminds me of how much I need you,
A love like ours I’m so lucky to share,
So just let me know you’ll always be there.

2008-12-01T15:28:00.000-08:00

Especially For You

These words are written especially for you,
To let you know how much I need you,
To be there for me unconditionally,
To help maintain my stability.

It feels so perfect when we are both together,
In my heart there can be no other,
No one has ever made me feel this way,
You are on my mind all night and day.

This time is difficult, I know this for sure,
But the love in my heart is honest and pure,
Our faith will carry us through this time,
My prayers are for you to always be mine.

MISSING YOU©

2008-12-01T15:27:00.000-08:00

Missing You

Missing you more than words can say,
Need you more each passing day,
Your letters and calls keep my hopes alive,
Can’t stand not being right there by your side.

Miss your kisses and heavenly touch,
Your precious and warm loving hugs,
The way you make me feel deep in my heart,
Our being together is all I ever want.

Soon we’ll join each other again,
Realizing in each other, we can both depend,
Our love is unquestionably meant to be,
Together, forever, just you and me.

2008-12-01T15:26:00.000-08:00

I’ll Always Be There

Your precious smile brings such joy to my heart,
These feelings I’ve known since the very start,
Life with you feels so complete,
So blessed am I that we did meet.

Nothing compares to being with you,
Loving all the special things you do,
Making love and sharing is so perfect with you,
Being confident in the knowledge that our love is true.

Miss taking walks hand in hand,
So proud am I to be your man,
Just know in your heart that I’ll always be there,
With compassion, concern, and tender loving care.

My goal is to share our lives together,
Knowing we can count on one another,
Just sharing with you what I truly feel,
And promise you these words are totally real.

A SINGLE ROSE©

2008-12-01T15:15:00.000-08:00

A Single Rose

A single rose is a sign of my love,
A love which is blessed by the heaven’s above,
Which will last in our hearts for all eternity,
Being together is our fate and destiny.

2008-12-01T15:14:00.000-08:00

All I Hope For

The times we’ve spent just hangin’ out
Your love and caresses I can’t live without,
Wish I could change all I’ve done wrong,
But I promise I’ll be home before too long.

The trials and tribulations that life takes us through,
Strengthens the bond between me and you,
Assures us both of what’s in our hearts,
Teaching us each what we both want.

It would be nice if we had an easier path,
But I have confidence that our love is strong enough to last,
I need you now more than ever before,
Our lives together is all I hope for.

Em C G D (over and over)

1. Yeshua, came to me in a dream,

He looked so perfect to me.

Told me He had a vision for me to do,

Gave me a plan of what I must do;

Yeshua, came to me in a dream,

Told me His plan so perfectly.

2. Gave me His outline so I’d know what to do,

All I wanted was a sign or a clue,

That this was a vision of reality,

And not just my mind a’playin’ with me.

When I asked for a sign, a bright light shone through,

I knew it was Him telling me it was true.

Break (Instrumental)

Refrain 1: Yeshua, came to me in a dream (came to me in a dream).

I say Yeshua came to me in a dream ( came to me, came to me in a dream).

He looked so perfect, so perfect to me;

Yeshua came to me in a dream.

3. Now I must do what I was told,

Following His plan will bless so many tenfold.

Now I must build up this temple on a rock,

Open our doors and bring in His flock.

Guide them and teach them to follow His Word

Save them and bring their hearts to our Lord.

4. ADONAI is our true answer to life,

Gave up His Son as a sacrifice.

People will come from all over to see,

How He’s won hearts and granted blessings.

Told me to build up His House of Prayer,

His plan He stated so perfectly clear.

Refrain 2: Yeshua came to me in a dream (came to me, came to me in a dream).

I know that Yeshua came to me in a dream(came to me, came to me in a dream).

I say that Yeshua came to me in a dream(Yeshua came to me in a dream);

Yeshua came to me in a dream. Repeat:

LIFE DON’T GET NO BETTER THAN THIS

Life don’t get no better than this with Jesus in your life,
He gave us everything we need in order to survive,
Sacrificed His life for us, so unselfishly,
Brought to us eternal life and countless blessings.

I’ve had so many problems and didn’t know what to do,
Didn’t realize that Jesus was there, for me to turn to,
He saved me so quickly, in the twinkle of an eye,
Took away my troubles and showered me with His light

His power is so great – He forgave me for my sins,
Made me whole once again, to you alone I sing,
Sing you songs of praise, to glorify your name,
Jesus I’m so proud that you gave me again.

Don’t know how to cope with the confusion in my mind,
Now that I’ve been saved I have found eternal life,
You shed your blood upon the cross for all the world to see,
That you are the one and only, Son of our King.

Life don’t get no better than this with Jesus in your life,
He gave us everything we need in order to survive,
Life don’t get no better, life don’t get no better,
Life don’t get no better than this with Jesus in your life,
Life, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah,
Ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah

THE HEALING WATERS ©

Yashuah has blessed the waters of our land,
Created the borders of our promised land,
Created fruits for food and leaves to heal,
The covenant of Elohim is promised and sealed.

Our prince of the universe, the son of Yahweh,
Entered the gate of the courtyard at the beginning of that day,
He saw the river of water of life and its base and home,
So crystal clean as it flowed from the throne.

It brought fruits of life to feed the nations,
The curse upon Israel was removed to open their salvation,
Elohim provided light and shall reign for all eternity,
Providing all we need plus countless blessings.

These healing waters are a gift from our Lord,
All we must do is to simply follow His word,
Believe in Yashua, the Prince of our King,
And He will lead us to eternal life in heaven with Elohim

TOUCHED BY AN ANGEL ©

I was touched by an Angel brought to me by the Lord,

Fulfilled my prayers that I’ve had for so long,

Gave me this opportunity to spread God’s word,

Through this music I write that’s anointed by our Lord.

This Angel came from heaven with a spirit so strong,

And by the power of the Holy Spirit I play these songs,

Jesus came and answered my prayers,

And made this Angel suddenly appear.

My gratitude to you Father for all you have done,

For this Angel you’ve sent to finally come,

I was touched by an Angel brought to me by the Lord,

Fulfilled my prayers that I’ve had for so long.

Glory to Jesus and our Father up high,

To you I give praises as your name is glorified,

You are the King, Almighty is your name,

I was touched by an Angel, forever You shall reign.

Jesus, came to me in a dream,
He looked so perfect to me.
He told me He had a vision for me to do,
Gave me a plan of what I must do

Jesus, came to me in a dream,
Told me all so perfectly,
Gave me all the plans so I'd know what to do,
All I wanted was a sign or a clue,

That this was a vision of reality,
And not my mind just playing with me
As I asked for a sign a bright light shown through,
I knew it was Him telling me it was true

Now it's up to me to do what I was told
And follow this plan and be blessed tenfold
Now I must build up this church on a rock
Open our doors and bring in His flock

Guide them and teach them to follow His word
Save them and bring their hearts to our Lord
People will come from all over to see
How He's won hearts and countless blessings

Jesus came to me in a dream
I know that Jesus came to me in a dream
I say that Jesus came to me in a dream

YASHUAH, WE PRAISE YOUR NAME ©

Yashuah, we praise your name—you’ve given us so much,

All we ever need from you is your loving touch,

You’ve touched our hearts so deeply with the spirit of our Lord,

Brought it from the heavens along with his word.

You’ve taught us all we need to know and sacrificed your life,

Shed your blood unselfishly to give us a new life,

Cleansed of our past for another chance to us,

All we need to show you is unconditional faith and trust.

Opened up your heart and soul teaching all we need,

Planting within us a new life and seed,

The seed of knowledge and wisdom just for you and I,

To glorify and praise our Lord all day and night.

Yashuah, we praise your name, you’ve given us so much,

You’ve touched our hearts with the Holy Spirit through Angels high above,

No one else could bring to us such unselfish love,

One day we will join you in His Kingdom with faith, trust, and love.

YOU’VE TRULY FOUND THE WAY ©

When in trouble we call out to Him,

We promise anything we can to forgive our sins,

We give thanks for blessings that we’ve received,

But often it is ourselves that we do deceive.

G-d will always be there for us unconditionally,

As long as we seek Him in our life with sincerity,

He’ll bless us each day in so many ways,

Just do what is right day after day.

His light will guide us through troubles and strife,

He’ll watch over and protect us all day and night,

Just remember to call on Him in good times as well,

To give thanks and gratitude for keeping us well.

My heart grieves when I reflect on people’s deceit,

When all that they do is create their own defeat,

So give to out Lord with all of your heart,

And all will get better with a blessed new start.

Just like a babe as clean as can be,

You too can be saved for all eternity,

Honor and praise our Lord each day,

And know in your heart that you’ve truly found the way !

ABOUT YOU

What is it about you
That makes me want to dance?
What is it about you
That draws me to romance?
What is it about you?
That draws me closer
Closer to your heart?

Every time I’m near you
I feel your fire burning
Every time I hear you
I feel my passion yearning
Every time I touch you
It draws me closer
Closer to your love

Take me, take me in your arms
Free me, from the world
And all it’s harms
Love me, love me closer
Love me deeper
Let your fire burn within

Everything about you
Makes my spirit soar
Everything about you
Makes me cry for more
Everything about you
Draws me closer
Closer to your flames

DEEPER I GO©

2008-12-01T07:31:00.002-08:00

DEEPER I GO

Deeper down, down into my soul
To places never touched, never known
Gates unlocked which once stood strong
No longer locked all defenses gone
A new love has come
The pain of so many years
So many cried tears
Hid in the night
Now brought to the light
The light of your unending love

What do I do with the freedom you give?
Who will be there to teach me to live?
Deeper I fall into the point of no return
Deeper to the point where your love burns
Deeper you go into my heart
What can life give if we are apart?
No one has gone to this place before
No one has entered this gate before
Deeper you go inside of me
Only your love has set me free!

ERIKS SONG

What do you know of the distortion in my soul?
What do you know of the tortured life I’ve lived?
What do you know of the love I’ve not known?
If you only knew than my distortion you would forgive.

A mother’s love was denied me from the start
I never knew what it was to have her heart
My haunted face has led me to this place
A place of loneliness, no warm embrace, no escape.

There was a time when you wanted to know me
Look past this face, see the man inside of me
Will you look past the distortion in my soul?
And see the man who is longing to be held

The man inside this haunted face you see
He needs your love to come and set him free
All that I have I would gladly give
If you’ll take my love and teach me how to live…

Lover Of My Soul

Sing to me oh lover of my soul
The song of our hearts
Come to me oh lover of my soul
And let our hearts be entwined
Sing with me oh lover of my soul
For tonight you shall be mine

To me you have come
To me you have run, into my arms
To me you have run oh my beloved
You’ve captured my heart
With you I will go
You are my love, you are my angel,
My dark world has passed
Now I have love at last.

Breathe on me oh lover of my soul
With your breath of new life
Kiss me please oh lover of my soul
With your kiss of new love
Romance me oh lover of my soul
Tonight I give you my life.

Magnificent Obsession

My magnificent obsession
You are all I desire
My eyes are set on you
Only your love will do

Passionate fires within me burn
A love like this who can describe?
A love like this who can describe?
From you my eyes cannot be turned.

Where does this passion come from?
From here where will I go?
It rises deep within me
Burns deep, within my soul

My magnificent obsession
My heart belongs to you
Consume me with your passion
My life, I give to you!

Free me from the dark of night.

I cry out to you oh my God
When will the pain cease and the peace increase?
You are my God, the lover of my soul
Only your love can make me whole.

A whisper of desire
A passion fueled by fire
No longer lonely
And your love frees me of darkness

I will be here for you
Comfort and care for you
No longer lonely
You are my one true companion

Loving arms to hold me

My heart was yours alone

The sweet taste of your lips
Tenderness in your kiss
No longer lonely
Together my love
Now and forever more

Love, I am here for you
I’ll share my life with you
No longer lonely
And my love will light your darkness

That your arms would hold me

My heart was yours alone

These tears are happiness
The whisper in my kiss

WEDDING OF THE LAMB

Bride; Take me to that place where I have never been before
To that place where you make my spirit soar
Take me in your arms my love
Hold me close to you
My love, my desire is only for you.

Jesus; Come into my arms my Bride
I will make your spirit soar
Where only my sweet love you will taste
A love you have never known before

Bride; You are my love and my life
How I love you so
The time for us has come
To truly become one
From you I will never go.

Jesus; My love for you grows stronger
Let us not wait any longer
Come to me my dear
I wish to hold you near
A day we will never forget
A day I will not regret
Our wedding day is here!

THE CAROUSEL

Children riding….on a carousel
Lovers kiss…. And no one knows
Young ones pause, for the old to step down
Up and down, and round it goes….

Everybody knows….
Pink horses are for princesses….
And blue will take you for a spree
The black and the white, with the rose in his mane
Can you take you where you long to be….

We know the ride…. Will end some day
All the pretty little horses run away
Still we come everywhere around the town
To share the music and feel of going ‘round….

And as you are spinning on the carousel
You may find a friend that’s true
And remember the music that played when I found
I was riding…. With you

I wish you joy….and sunny days
And music falling all around you when it rains
A faithful friend through all the ups and downs
And a new friend every time you go round

And if…. I am riding on a carousel
When I am old…. Say, ninety two….
I’ll remember the day’s and the music that played
When I rode it… with you…..

SET ME FREE©

Set Me Free

So many things I do not understand,
Yet in my heart I long,
To take your hand
My mind says no, do not go,
Yet my heart says take your hand.

How can I know which way to turn?
I look into your eyes
They so deeply burn
How do I know which is wrong or right?
Do I plunge into darkness or follow your light?

It’s all I’ve known – this deep, dark world,
This is the place that I’ve called home
Yet one glance in your eyes
They so deeply burn
Will you show me the way I am to turn?

“Come you say to me
Take my hand I’ll set you free”
Remove your mask there’s no need to hide
For I see the man deep down inside.

How can you know the man in me?
How can you truly set me free?
You say a new life I will live
But can the world truly forgive?
Will the world truly forgive?

Your eyes meet mine, they burn inside
I take your hand, I cannot hide
I feel your love surrounding me
Finally! I have been set free
Your love has set me free.
