The One Who Prepares

The One Who Knows Me Less (not true anymore)
Has played therapist with her husband for a long time.
For a long time I have played therapist with my Smartest Friend,
Who had a good interview today and will be moving soon.

My brother is mad at me, and my parents are too 
(Though my father sounded a lot like my mother.)
I get where I went wrong - I should have prioritized when I was with them;
But I do not regret going out when I did.

My sister and brother-in-law coming was a love song to me,
One that I so cherish even though the timing was not perfect.
That is because I lack discernment.
And like my mom, get excited over things I shouldn't.

From here, I don't know what the future holds.
I just know I need to hold the hand of the One who made me,
The One who has been moving fast for quite some time now,
The One Who Prepares those - who will listen - for everything. <3

My God

All my life You have been with me,
How could I, pretend not to see.
I was walkin on a line,
I was wasting precious time.

All I know is that You love me!
If I call, you will set me free.
It's a promise that You made,
It's the truth that will not change.

Ooh please help me to remember...

(chorus)
My God has never let me down,
My God has turned my world around.
He loves me even though I know I don't deserve him!

My God has never turned away,
He's with me every single day!
He's broken all the chains and set this captive free.

Seems to you, all your hope is gone,
Never found a love that strong!
It's a chance you have to take!
A choice you've got to make.

I hope that you'll remember...

(chorus)

My God will never let you down,
My God can turn your world around!
He loves us even though I know we don't deserve him!

My God will never turn away,
He's with you every single day!
He's broken all the chains and set this captive free, yeaaa!

ahhhhhhh,hhuuuhh

My God will never let you down,
My God can turn your world around!
He loves us even though I know we don't deserve him!

My God will never turn away,
He's with you every single day!
He's broken all the chains and set this captive free, yeaaa!

My God has never let me down,
My God has turned my world around.
He loves me even though I know I don't deserve him!

My God has never turned away,
He's with me every single day!
He's broken all the chains and set this captive free.

It's out of my Control

Every anxious thought that steals my breath
It's a heavy weight upon my chest
As I lie awake and wonder what the future will hold
Help me to remember that You're in control
You're my courage when I worry in the dead of night
You're my strength 'cause I'm not strong enough to win this fight
You are greater than the battle raging in my mind
I will trust You, Lord, I will fear no more

I will lift my eyes, I will lift my cares
Lay them in Your hands, I'll leave them there
When the wind and waves are coming, You shelter me
Even though I'm in the storm, the storm is not in me

You're my courage when I worry in the dead of night
You're my strength 'cause I'm not strong enough to win this fight
You are greater than the battle raging in my mind
I will trust You, Lord, I will fear no more
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more

No power can come against me 'cause You have overcome
No darkness can overwhelm me 'cause You've already won
No power can come against me 'cause You have overcome
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh)
No darkness can overwhelm me 'cause You've already won
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh)

You're my courage when I worry in the dead of night
You're my strength 'cause I'm not strong enough to win this fight
You are greater than the battle raging in my mind
I will trust You, Lord (Trust You, Lord)
I will fear no more (Fear no more)

(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh)
I will fear no more (Fear no more)
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more
(Oh-oh-oh-ohh, oh-oh-oh-oh-ohhhh) I will fear no more

What Do You See?

What do you see when you look at me?
Just use your imagination
Can you see me on the cover of a magazine?
Like the beautiful models that everyone's seen
Vogue or Chic or Mademoiselle
It's all so glamorous, and I can tell
That on the outside it's as cool as can be
But on the inside I'm still me
I can be anything I want
I can be anything I need
Make believing all day long
But on the inside I'm still me
What do you see when you look at me?
Through the lens of a fashion camera
Striking a pose like a Covergirl
Whose picture is famous all over the world
Donna Karen, Calvin Klein
Fashion fun is so divine
On the outside it's as cool as can be
But on the inside I'm still me
I can be anything I want
I can be anything I need
Make believing all day long
But on the inside I'm still me
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
I can be anything that I want
I can be anything that I need
Whoo!
Make-believing all day long
But on the inside I'm still me
