Lord, I would see only
What You would show me
I would hear only Your Voice

Lord, I would know always
How close You hold me
I would make daily the choice

To live the life You made for me
To sing the song You wrote
To share the gifts You gave to me
Like faith and love and hope

So show me how to serve You, Father
Tell me: what’s my role?
Show me how to serve You, Father
Please, please use my soul

For Father I am Yours
Father I am Yours
Father, I’m forever Yours

I’m barely making it
Can’t seem to catch my breath
My every smile is fake
Don’t feel a hint of happiness
I hope one day it changes
Hope my luck will turn around
Can I re-write these pages?…

Well I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
God will smile on me
I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
Things will go my way
I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
For a miracle
Ray of sun
I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
I’m hopeful

I’m tired of struggling
With burdens for so long
So tired of feeling troubled
And trying to be strong
I hope one day it changes
Hope my luck will turn around
Can I re-write these pages?…

Well I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
God will smile on me
I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
Things will go my way
I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
For a miracle
Ray of sun
I don’t know
But I’m hopeful
I’m hopeful

Spring Brings Hope December 5, 2007

Filed under: hope — lililyrics @ 2:27 am

After reading my blog yesterday, a friend of mine dropped these words of wisdom in my ear: “Winter means that it’s almost Spring.” How very, very true. Instead of stressing about the stormy, wintry weather right now, why not look to the future? Why not focus on brighter, happier times to come? Why not get excited about new beginnings?

So that’s what I’ve decided to do. Spring brings chirping birds and sunnier skies. Spring means kelly-green grass shoots, lighter coats, gentler breezes and smiles in people’s eyes. Spring heralds Summer, my favorite season. Spring brings hope.
