Tall

She paints her cheeks to hide the pain,
She whispers love in spite of shame
Fighting for truth, in a world, shattered in pieces
She wraps her scars in paper love
She burns and yearns,
What is this for?

I won’t back down again
I’m not broken
Anymore, I’ll keep hangin on
 
She tug of wars with weighted chains
She battles blues, wrestling, and remains
Fighting for free, in a world, battered and bruised
She unveils her face and speaks of dreams
She can’t make sense, to know it seems,
What is this for?
 
She proclaims,
I'm not broken
Anymore, I’ll keep hanging on, and on again

As this world turns me upside down
I’m not gonna let you, let me down

Anymore, world - You’re gonna find me, standing tall

She tears the tangled roots, out of her heart
She drowns the lies, with tears, transforming into art
Reclaiming joy, a masterpiece- She is someone to love
She dances strong with feet of truth

She dares to live, calling love back in, within her youth

Where pain tried to leave its mark
And grab and steal and snuff out her spark
 
I’m not broken
Anymore, world, settle your score

I’m standing tall

 



 

 

Love Remains the Same

Learning what Love is, I let the Holy Spirit teach
deep into the depths of me his tender hands reach
undoing knots within my heart His love speaks true
erasing lies while mercy restores loyalty and truth

Learning what Love is, I brave a second look
as grace unwraps old wounds where icy pain took
here in His embrace I surrender to His gaze
as steady streams wash me and secure my place

Learning what Love is, to Love I learn to cleave
sure is my path when I let true Love lead
I long to know God as His Love sets me free
no matter how I falter or how I fail to see

Learning what Love is, written deep upon my heart
this soul lives free where God's Love never falls apart
I lift my eyes as Love calls me by name,
and to Him each day I come, where Love remains the same



Where Beauty Has No End

There’s a  starlight, breaking through the midnight
Where the tree tops, are swaying in the wind
There’s  a twinkle, brightening the heavens
Where the moonlight, awakens my heart again

I’m gonna fly higher than the mountains
I’m gonna soar where beauty has no end
I’m gonna live where my soul keeps on trying
I’m gonna smile and brave the wind
Where beauty has no end
Capture my heart again

There’s a sparrow, singing in a tall tree
His red chest, is warming up the day
There’s a chorus floating on the embers

Of this heartache, burning a fire in me

I’m gonna fight for freedom not forgotten
I’m gonna dream as far as the day is long
I’m gonna lay my heart on the horizon
I’m gonna welcome your strong and mighty song
Sing beauty over me, farther than I can see
Father you set me free.
