Sometimes Love Has Got To Let Go
When you held me in your arms I believed we where destiny
Than time revealed that my life had a different reality.
It wasn't in my plans to keep you low so I had to love you enough to let you grow.
They say sometimes love has got to let go.
Often I lay alone at night with thoughts of you filling my mind
I am trying hard to understand what is was that you where looking to find.
I know you where searching baby,,for something I could not give
I hope you can find what your looking for in the life you chosen to live.
They say sometimes love has got to let go if you want it to grow,
But you know sometimes it slips away and finds another to take your place.
Your left alone learning daily to be strong as they hold another in their arms
You pray that God to keep you from doing harm.
I miss you so bad sometimes I just lay and cry I feel as if I going to die
Than I see you pass by, Baby you seem so satisfied .
My lips they will smile, but my heart it just cries
and you know I wonder why sometimes love,
It’s just got to say good bye.

Dove-The way is Mine
As Paul of Tarsus , you where struck blind
The Lord said, be not deceived child,
Your life is mine
As Peter ,my fisherman that fished in the sea
my love, my child, you’ll fish for me
As Jonah, imprisoned in the belly of his doom
You are delivered , from your living tomb
As Stephen was stoned he did cry,
Father forgive them ,So did I
The journey is long, many trials you will bare
so remember threw them all I will be there
Be strong My child -Be bold in war
The harvest is plenty , I give you more.
Fret not about tomorrow , seek only today
for in your life I have paved My way.

Not My Will
Not my will for the future I can not see
My flesh has a thorn ..Lord
will You not remove it, must this be?
Never the less, Thy will be done,
thy grace is sufficient for me.
I am broken....Lord intercede.
I suffer the past, one I can not change,
I seek a future that I can not see.
It is the present hopes to find me
Thorn,,a hurt. that torches my soul within,
in my search for its healing ,
I find no end.
In my loneliness it seeks to be found
Yet in a crowd of many, it hears no sound.
In my flesh it abides I wish not ,yet I do
To myself I am not true.
Oh this pain that stands my body still
it seems to hold to its own will.
Mind, loose the fear that I see,
heal the shame that has blinded me.
Oh thorn, you humbling key,
there to remind me without ease.
Gods grace is sufficient and free
Restore my hope to believe.

Whispers of Your Love
The whispers of your love
is calling out to me
I hear it in the wind
as it’s breeze intercedes.
How my heart captures
the hoping of your plead
Says my wondering mind
what does He see in me
my whispering love
reveal your self to me
I know your there
stand let me see.
My priceless jewel
my gift from above
I know your valor
God showed your love
Thoughts exceed my mind
can’t make you leave
my breath calls you
don’t leave me bereaved.

Who Holds You
You said you would never leave me
yet your never around
You said I made you happy
but all I see is a frown.
Always and forever your
love would be true
where do you go when your busy
days are threw
who do you run to when your not here with me
as I grow tired of waiting on the love that use to be
When my days are lonely and my nights are empty to
as my arms hold your pillow, who’s holding you
You said you’d never hurt me your love was strong and true
I would never be unhappy as long as I have you.

WHERE I USE TO BE
You came in like a lion
capturing your prey
lost my love to a temptress,
He is digging his grave.
She became his bride,
he became her slave
You know I died inside
dancing in wore out lies
But with nothing to hide
I found my pride......
Now I can see the upside
You remember this
when you taste them lips
Honey ,their the lips
that I use to kiss
feel my breath in your face
you’ll always be second place
There is always gonna be
In them arms are
where I use to lay
you can’t play a game
that I ain’t already played
when his memories of me
won’t go away ....
understand ,everyone gets
there own payday
Best not to be deceived
by the web you weave
what you give, you receive
it will never leave
There is always gonna be
a...Where I use to be !

Let Me Use You Tonight
Friend, I asking you this question,
Please don’t look surprised.
Think about it carefully, before you reply.
I cared about him, he was my love,
He tore into my soul
He left it a wispier I n the wind.
Hurt and broken hearted,
Wondering what I done wrong
I am totally dishearten.
Oh how I tried to hold on,
but I give up the fight.,
No matter what I do ,
I can’t do anything right.
He hurt me more than I can forgive this time
The unhappy truth, is more than I know how to handle.
My pride has given up its shine.
He hurt me more than I can stand this time.
Yes you know,
he hurt me more than I know how to stand
Let me use you, yes you,, let me use you tonight.
Will you teach me how to be untrue,
How to tell a lie, play him the fool.
To kiss and never tell, walk away from a empty well.
How to hurt, and never care.
How to replace these wore out tears
To laugh never cry,,to be hell before his eyes.
Bitterness has overcome
This somebody that loved someone.
An Angry fate has brought distrust ,
For the man I once loved so much.
Now I’ll laugh ,I won’t cry,
I don’t care I’ll tell a lie.
This somebody will over come
That somebody who loved everyone.
Let me use you tonight.
