The Most Amazing Woman that I’ve Ever Known

She’s the most amazing woman
That I’ve ever known
She never held back with all her love
It was shown

She taught me how to love
She taught me how to give
And I won’t ever forget
All the things that she did

If I ever need somebody
I just pick up the phone
Every time I hear her voice
I know I’m not alone

She’ll never turn me down
She flips my frown upside down
I have the best mom ever
Than anyone in any town

She taught me to look up
To rely on God
Even when I’m feeling selfish
And my face is in the sod

She’s encouraging
She’s as sharp as a tack
And I wouldn’t change a thing
If I could turn time back

I Belong to You

Just when I thought I understood
Which path You had for me
You changed my course, again it contorts
And makes me want to flee

I thought I had it figured out
It made great sense to me
But You blocked my way, I cannot pay
Is it really not meant to be?

If it’s nothing but a stumbling block
Help me to stay the course
Don’t let it drag me down in frustration
It’s not something I can force

I could throw myself a pity party
But no one else will come
Feeling sorry for myself about this
Just seems really dumb

This road might seem all uphill to me
But You’re strengthening my soul
If I never exercised my faith
I’d never be made whole

So I’ll lift my face and trust Your grace
You know exactly what to do
You’ll never leave me on my own
Because I belong to You

My Ungrateful Ways

It’s rained all week, could You make it dry today?
The sun finally shines; “it’s too hot” I say
Teach me to be still; but I don’t want to sit
Let me be a candle for you; just leave the flame unlit

Lord, show me Your path; not that one, though
Whatever’s in Your will; just not that…no
You gave me what I asked, but that’s not what I mean
Ask and receive is not always what it seems

Pick me up; Set Me Down
I’m ready for more; that’s too much ,now
Help me out; I’ll do it by myself
Give me your word; I’ll put it on the shelf
I need more time; oh good! A lazy day
Lord forgive my ungrateful ways

I want to truly be thankful for all the blessings that You give
Without you, Lord, I wouldn’t care how I lived
It’s a good thing that You know what’s really best indeed
Because if You left it up to me I never learn anything
Lord, forgive my ungrateful ways
