This is the song of my life; I want to do this right.
I wish it were like the mountains, drinking from cool clear fountains;
but my life is cold, and the mess I'm in is getting old.
...
I saw a beautiful woman;
I saw her beautiful smile.
It was in church one Sunday afternoon;
and that smile you could see for a mile.
...
I want you to come to my open windows,
and pretend you're one of my heroes;
your support can help me bear the pain,
and like the New Edition I can stand the rain.
...
I love this beautiful morning;
I can taste the morning breeze.
I know it can change without warning,
but for now my mind's at ease.
...
I am so blessed to have you, I love you so.
I am so blessed to have you, that's so true.
You make me want to sing harmony;
I pray for you every morning and night,
...
The words of the Lord are a pure as silver,
tested in the furnace of earth.
Oh Lord my God, open my eyes;
I have trusted in your mercy,
...
There once was a woman who was single but not alone.
She loved the Lord; she was a woman of God.
She was looking for love and wanted to have happiness in her life.
She needed somebody in her life: somebody who cared about her, somebody who would be there for her, somebody who could make her happy.
...
After the rain, the rainbow helps me ease the pain.
I want to see the light; we don't have to put up a fight.
I want to see the rainbow – the rainbow of love.
...
I've got to get something off my chest; I want to put this to rest.
I want to conquer the mountain, I want to drink from the fountain.
I have tears in me.
...
I'm trying to keep real -
going through some trials,
going through some pain.
Still chasing away the pain.
...
Baby, you are my masterpiece.
You be my picture; I'll be your frame.
You are sweeter than raspberry juice;
I never want to turn you loose.
...
Sometimes jealousy burns like fire;
let's eat the bread of desire,
and drink the spiritual tea
that propels our love ever higher.
...
My baby got her groove back;
she looks like she's in Motown.
She's got stuff and knows how to use it;
I may have a nervous breakdown.
...
Jesus - there's something about that name;
It tells me traveling this life's no game.
With Him I'll climb to the tops of mountains
with streams of water like flowing fountains
...
I know a woman who loves God;
I mean she really, really loves God.
I can't say I know her that well -
...
I love you in that red dress - your love's so sweet;
it blooms like a flower, and you've stolen my heart.
Complete words come straight from my eyes,
and they all say, "I love you."
...
God is my light; there's no need to fight.
I've been through praying and fasting,
so I feel my love is everlasting -
my sweet love for sweet, heavenly glory.
...
Let me light your candle;
your eyes are like a window to your soul.
I just want to reach out for your love;
I just need someone to love me.
...
This mess I'm in is getting too old;
I've been going through trials and tribulation,
and I've been fighting temptation;
Lord, I want to be in your presence.
...
The sky is blue, I know that's true;
I want no more madness, no more sadness.
I want to be here, there and everywhere,
celebrating love and laughter,
...
Spiritual Journey
This is the song of my life; I want to do this right.
I wish it were like the mountains, drinking from cool clear fountains;
but my life is cold, and the mess I'm in is getting old.
I don't want to go through the hurt; I need to get back to church.
I don't want to be thrown under the bus, or be left in somebody's dust.
Most people don't know how I feel, how badly I need to heal.
I just want to sing my song - been out in the storm for too, too long;
If this is my spiritual journey, I surely don't want to tweet it.
I'm so hungry for the Word; my prayers have got to be heard.
When Chaka Khan sings "Through the Fire" I feel my soul's desire,
is to somehow stop the pain, and to relieve some of my strain.
It's time to let go, let God, and start my spiritual journey.
