SPRING OF JOY What has happened to me Is a question I ask, everyday You brought me something to see, mirrored in me unexpectedly This temptation of freedom so removed from it all Feels like a wave crashing upon me that’s thrown me out of control So out of sync lately Too distracted by my own happiness I’m still adjusting to the honesty you found inside of me This temptation of freedom so removed from it all Romances me beyond any concerns of losing all my control CHORUS And I do think I might like The spring of joy I feel out of me You are in my mind when I can’t see You are in my gasp when I can’t breathe You are in my view when I can’t see You taught me how to love completely What has happened simply Cannot be captured with any words I know You brought a feeling to me and colored all my fears as I let go This temptation of freedom so removed from it all Delights me enough to trust and surrender my control CHORUS MIRACLE Sometimes I’m just holding onto this life like a thread Ready to snap and I want to flee all the voices in my head They tell me “stop trying so hard” in the name of my dreams But I know it’s not the voice of Love talking to me CHORUS That’s when I stop gotta find faith Lift my heart to the sky and wait To be filled I know I will In that quiet space I pray For a miracle When I think too much I end up in the place I start Running in circles ‘til I follow the wisdom of my heart That’s when life turns around and things start getting better Miracles only happen the moment of surrender You’ve seen me on my knees - lighting candles Crying, “please answer me” Show me strength in the weakness I feel So Truth can be revealed CHORUS That’s when I stop gotta find faith Lift my heart to the sky and wait To be filled I know I will In that quiet space I pray for peace, I pray for love Pray for Mercy from above oh, take this world, heal it well Send us a miracle Send a miracle One day my mind will sway and do a dance with my heart They’ll swirl around to the sound of desire Innocent with Grace all glow Gently guiding me home. This I pray Let me see with my heart Show me how to listen from my soul Make me someone who matters to this world Someone who brings hope CHORUS TRANSFORMING Father you did the best you could Mother gave birth and nurtured me You tried to make my world a place where I could be free But sometimes the world has other plans So I marched to the beat of everyone else's drum and I lost sync with my true self Tired of blaming, wining, crying out in pain That's when I let you in Let you break my thick skin and help me out CHORUS I am becoming all that I desire soaring high and free Father with your love, your wisdom and your guidance I am transforming into me, perfectly Restless, artistic, compassionate All these qualities follow me around They are gifts part of me - not to judge but to be embraced, shaped and nurtured tenderly CHORUS Now I feel like a butterfly breaking out of her cocoon stretched wings, fluttering, ready to color the sky With bright red, orange and warm hues of gold Breathtaking, magnificent to behold CHORUS FREEFLOWING I came into this world a curious child My eyes wide open and feeling so alive I was taught “be a good girl” - nothing came for free The years of people pleasing came catching up to me I stumbled with my sadness, picked up this guitar The words came streaming out - rhyming and in verse I thanked the Lord above for speaking through me so eloquently CHORUS And now I’m freeflowing and loving life Nothing gets me down when I'm feeling this light I'm free flowing I've found the charm Of living each day just being who you are I've had my share of love- had many years alone 'Til my heart told my head all it needed to know That no one else could make my life complete - no one but me Now it's all up in the air - where I go tomorrow - I don't care I've shaken all the guilt all the burdens and the fears It's all so clear that I'm CHORUS JOSEPHINE Though wooden in stature there is no denying the heart inside She's given a lot of love in her long lifetime and she has been treated well Born somewhere in Asbury Park she never moved Too much further to see That there are many cold hard hands playing the keys None of them dainty like me - none would love her quite like me CHORUS 1 Josephine are you willing to let me decide What's best for you in this life time Josephine do you know how much joy that you bring How much you make my heart sing Oh how you make my heart sing I played many others but never did find a fit quite like this kind Though she's in good hands now I sense she's sad Missing her treasured homeland - missing her first owner's hands CHORUS 2 Josephine are you willing to stay by my side and take thirty more years in stride Josephine I will listen tell me all your needs and I will meet them indeed Cause you've met my lifelong dream It's you and me now let's rule the world and giggle like two little girls All I ask in return is that you help me grow closer to the peace that you know A girl and her piano can go It's just a girl and her piano you know CHORUS 1 & 2 LOVE We all need it we all bleed from it Treating it kindly at times But to possess, acquire, forget or destroy It exists only in our own minds It's some task to define it So easy to slip when you're feeling dead inside But that's the time when you most need it from yourself CHORUS Don't let yourself get caught up in this mess Don't fall off your happiness Stand up to the challenge with all that you've learned Love is really not supposed to hurt We've been fooled, fooled to believe there's a way to control it And that there's a need the more you give freely The more that you'll receive CHORUS Don't let yourself get caught up in this mess Don't fall off your happiness Stand up to the challenge with all that you've learned Love is really not supposed to hurt Don't let yourself get caught up in this mess Don't let love bring you down again Don't fall with fear into its hands don't look too close Don't keep your head in the sand let it run wild until you feel free The more you let go the closer you'll be CHORUS SPECIAL GIFTS Oh God there's a whole world waiting for me To express myself to share the wealth of possibilities But I don't know how or where to start When I feel lost and sometimes stuck I seek Your help CHORUS There is only one Truth I want to see That we all have special gifts to bring With a little peace/ faith/ love from you And a little peace / trust / faith from me Oh God take heart in knowing you're heard In silence I sit with patience I lift my talents up to you Oh God somehow I know I will be used For my highest good - throw the rules and shoulds out the window CHORUS THANK YOU Though I know there's so much to be grateful for There are times in my life when I see no open door I'm struggling or sad, hurt or mad Hope is fleeting and peace is not had That’s when I just take a long breath and close my eyes Through Grace it's then that I realize It's time to sing the song of gratitude. Thank you! To You for being a friend to me To Spirit for showing me all I see To love for filling me up inside Bless my heart it's a faithful guide Mother earth physically feeds me A shady tree provides tranquility I sit there and rest it's so nice The fresh air I breathe keeps me alive What I can handle it comes my way Anything more is taken away My path now is open wide the more thanks I give the higher I fly CHORUS So thank you I see what I have I really do All my needs are met yeah more than enough Thanks for the faith and thanks for the trust So thank you, thank you a lot I say thank you thanks for all that I got Thank you sunshine thank you rain I love your flowers I even love my pain ! It teaches me where I need to grow Reminds me of what I already know That You are here with me and I'm never alone The more thanks I give the more that I glow CHORUS Thank you, thank you a lot-for all that I am and what I’m not I know I'm human and sometimes feel blue But you always see me through FUN GUITAR SOLO (good to bop and dance to!) Bless you for shedding this light For all that goes wrong more goes right It's time I wake up to the joy and exercise my conscious choice to say Thank you whether I feel it or not those words they have power to get me on track It's as easy to smile as it is to frown So let's turn those frowns around and say Thank you Thank you I see what I have I really do Thank you You see what I am You do Thank you For loving me You really do Contact: info@springmusic.net for licensing information | |
