Rise Up

You are filled with the Holy Ghost fire
He will take you where you desire
You have the greatest power on earth
The power to fight from your re-birth
Your foundation is built on a solid rock
You have access to God’s tool box
You are wasting your time in fear
You need to realize He is always here
You are living below your means
You have forgotten you are a child of the king
And thru his power you can overcome anything
You have the power to kick the devil out
But you have allowed him to steal your shout
You need to rise up and get on your feet
You have THE Savior that won’t be beat
Now is the time to take back your Joy
Take back everything the devil tried to destroy
Tell him to go away and never come back
Stay on fire so he can’t attack
Kick him around
And Knock him down where he can’t interrupt
Now is your time to Rise Up! Rise up!

 

In the Valley

Life is full of twists and turns
It don’t always take you where you yearn
Tosses your heart to and fro
Sometimes wondering where next you’ll go
Waiting for the next mountain to climb
Not wanting life to leave you behind
Hoping you don’t fall over that cliff
Or spend too much time on a dream and drift
Sometimes you wonder if you will survive
All the heartaches, pain and lies
Staying in the valley is not a choice
When you get to the top you will rejoice.

Tennessee Home

Tennessee is my place to be
Surrounded by mountains of majesty
Beautiful rivers and sparkling streams
Starlit skies and moonlit dreams
Hot summers packed with fun-filled days
Nights spent listening to music in the smoky haze
Fairs and Festivals filled with fun
Beautiful crops growing in the sun
Catching lightning bugs at night
And sitting by the fire’s light
Rising early to foggy skies
Waiting for the sun to rise
A beautiful home in God’s country
Wishing the rest of the world could see
All the beauty in Tennessee

Their Fight

Listening and hearing with my heart
Feeling and hurting for my friends
As they share their troubles again
Crying inside for their hurts
Feeling their struggles as my own
Wanting to make their life better
Feeling helpless because they matter
Thoughts and prayers I will offer
Knowing my God is the author
He mends and molds broken hearts
I will take their troubles to him
Asking him to enter in
Joining them among this mess
And causing them to come out blessed
He is the king and full of might
Making them winners of their fight
