Why Do You Carry Me

Suffering and unaware
Wanting to be alone

In my pit of despair
I find that someone cares

Wondering why the rescue
Why the pouring of grace

But standing awestruck
I find my self to dissipate

Oh why oh why Lord do
You love me
Why do you carry me
Through the storm

I find it hard to understand
The grace gave to this man

Blessed but feeling cursed
My life couldn't get worse

Stepping out onto the sea
Hoping to follow Gods lead

Ready to move when
I should stay stiill

Oh why oh why Lord do
You love me
Why do you carry me
Through the storm

I find it hard to understand
The grace gave to this man

Supposed

I'm supposed to be this
I'm supposed to be that
Without you I am
Nothing
Ashamed
Alone
Dirty
And used

When I'm supposed to be strong
I fall all apart
I'm supposed to be this
I'm supposed to be that
Without you I am
Lost
Weary
Blind
Hurt
And full of pain

Save me oh Lord
Save me oh Lord
Oh Save this broken soul

Full of pain
Full of shame
Without you Lord
I have all the blame

You took it all
All upon you
Because you loved me
Not that I loved you

Thank you
Thank you
Thank you

For loving me
In a world
That cannot
Truly see
What I'm supposed to be
Help me see what
I am supposed to be

God forgive me for only praising you when the rain stops.

Make Me Whole

The beginning of the day is breaking
Inside my heart there is no mistaking

He is for us, his love is through us

Along this path there is another way
Instead of this life of ruin and decay

His love is stronger, in him is power

Oh Lord take my soul
Lead me across
This valley
I built myself
Take my soul
and
Make it whole

Returning broken goods to the sender
Getting a holy healing from my mender

He fixes us, his love repairs us

I cannot keep all this hid anymore

Upon My Own Strength

I will not sink with this ship
current won't take me down
Never been my battle to win
Only my very own to loose

Upon my own strength
I am unable
To stay here
Upon my own strength
I am unable
To survive
Upon your strength
I am alive
I am alive

I once refused to fall all apart
Pretending to have a control
Sadly inward happy outward
Starting to sink and letting go

Never been my battle to win
Only my very own to loose

Upon my own strength
I am unable
To stay here
Upon my own strength
I am unable
To survive
Upon your strength
I am alive
I am alive

Never been my battle to win
Only my very own to loose

I am alive
I am alive
Upon your strength
I am alive

When I Wake Up

When I wake up will I be in California
Opening my eyes to a new life or
Will I wake up from this dream and
Remain empty handed instead

Life can be a challenge
Drifting at times away at sea
The storms are a brewing
I know I cannot save me

When I wake up will I be in California
Opening my eyes to a new life or
Will I wake up from this dream and
Remain empty handed instead

My how times are tough
Falling down to my knees
The emptiness is a brewing
I know I cannot fix me

When I wake up will I be in California
Opening my eyes to a new life or
Will I wake up from this dream and
Remain empty handed instead
