You Raise Me Up
Lyrics by Brendan Graham

When I am down
and, oh my soul,
so weary;

When troubles come
and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still
and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... to more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... to more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
And I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... to more than I can be.
You raise me up... to more than I can be.

This song is beyond amazing and comforting. It's one of the most touching songs I've ever heard.

 

[Wolf]

This song is beyond amazing and comforting. It's one of the most touching songs I've ever heard.

Same here, I love it too.

 

[Wolf]

I don't know why God allows this,
maybe its meant to be..

you should know that I do love you,
and I think you still love me,
its just the way you are always returning
back to me..

I don't want you to turn into a priest,
I love you as you are,

Its just that it bothers me
..how you currently view yourself,
as someone who thinks them self unworthy
of being loved.

You don't bother me at all,
I am in love with you,
probably because you also love me,
you loved me before I loved you,
before i even knew about you,
you made quite an effort
I think I try to compensate you
for the love you give me,

I think you are worthy
because you love me,
I think you are worthy
because you care about me,
just the fact that I do love you.

I just don't want you putting all your love
hopes on me, you know i'll let you down,
I don't want to let you down,
and yet at the same time
I don't want you to cut me down,

I don't know how this is going to work..

I'll keep praying for you,
because i think you are wonderful,
and very sweet, at times
very cruel the way this is done,

yet I still think a lot of you.

​

 

[Wolf]

No matter what may come my way, I trust you Lord to make
all the crooked paths before me straight.
(I like this song its inspiring)

"Better Than I" - Joseph King of Dreams 2000
David Campbell

I thought I did what's right..
I thought I had the answers,
I thought I chose the surest road,
But that road brought me here,

So I put up a fight,
And told you how to help me,
Now, just when I have given up,
The truth is coming clear,

You know better than I,
You know the way,
I've let go the need to know why,
For you know better than I

If this has been a test,
I cannot see the reason,
But maybe knowing I don't know,
Is part of getting through,

I try to do what's best,
And faith has made it easy,
To see the best thing I can do,
Is put my trust in you,

For you know better than I,
You know the way,
I've let go
the need to know why,
For you know better than I

I saw one cloud
and thought it was the sky,
I saw a bird and thought that
I could follow,
But it was you who taught
that bird to fly,

If I let you reach me,
Will you teach me,
For you know better than I,
You know the way,
I've let go the need to know why,
I'll take what answers you supply,
You know better than I

​

 

[Wolf]

Father,

I just want to honor you in everything I do
I desire to live my life the way you want me to
sometimes there are somethings I cannot control
I just don't want to lose my way
you already know

I want to be pleasing in your sight
even though I don't always do everything right

Straighten this path before me
if his heart is true inside
then open up the doors for me to see him,
because I know you already know
sometimes it seems to good to be true
and sometimes I want to believe
that it really is true
but I don't know,
and Lord God,
you are not the author of confusion,

I do know this,
I love him and I just want him to be happy
if he loves me give him the strength to be with me,
the right way, even if it is the traditional way.

If this is not real, then give him the
strength to let me go,

..I don't want to see him hurt,
I want to be with him. Its a desire of my heart.
If he wants to be with me,
give him strength, and courage.
Let him know he is worth a lot,
let him know you love him first.
shower him with your blessings.
protect him, cover him with your blood, Jesus.

Jesus broke the law
by: Lowanla (me)

We were all separated from God by the commandments

and the law, that was broken by sin

the crime would be paid through eternal separation,

because no one could ever be perfected in them,

We were all fallen children of Adam

The Law was between us and God

by becoming the ultimate blood sacrifice

atoning for our sins

Jesus had broken the barrier of the sin law

he took our punishment and judgement upon himself

There is a new law now

The new law is ... Love

Would it be easier to follow a God of cold law religion?

No...

Its as easy as falling in love with a sweetheart

You would do anything for that sweetheart

because you love them, because you believe in them,

because you trust them, you would even die for that loved one.

Doing something in love makes following a commandment easier,

there is no force, nor manipulation, nor control, nor fear,

just that you do it because you are in love...

I follow because I know when I mess up, my heart is broken

and I repent for it, I am forgiven, he forgives me,

I'll admit..

the reason I came back to God was,

I am in love with whom I believe in first since I was little,

Jesus Christ

He is no fairy tale,

I don't know why God loves me, or why at times

he rescues me from dangers, even though I've brought

them upon my own head,

but I've always believed in God,

and I will believe in Jesus until the day I die.

For I have hope in him, for all the ones I love...

I love Jesus Christ because,

he's been there since the beginning for me,

to the very end of the world..

​

 

[Wolf]

My expectations are high

Yes indeed they are high

for if you must have me

you must be only one thing to me,

a boyfriend or perhaps more..

that's all I require, its all I want

I don't need another savior,

I don't need another spiritual connection

I don't need another person in my head

trying to save me and fix things for me,

..that just takes too much out of you..

and it hurts you too.

You try to carry the weight I carry

because you love me,

but I don't need you to carry anything for me,

I just require a boyfriend

because then you would have no high expectations of you, nor

be burdened to carry what you weren't meant to carry,

because all my expectations are cast upon my savior Jesus Christ

I just want you that's all,

I love you for these characteristics,

You are courageous, bold, you have fortitude - which just
means you never give up, you hold on no matter what,

one of the greater qualities I love about you,

I love the fact that you aren't afraid to look at Jesus,

I just

love

you,

I hope one day you can just love me,

and not have any "expectations" of me,

Every time you come to me,

I'm always going to say something, about this..

I do love you still.

Halo by Porcupine Tree

God is in my fingers
God is in my head
God is in the trigger
God is in the lead

God is freedom, God is truth
God is power and God is proof
God is fashion, God is fame
God gives meaning, God gives pain

You can be right like me
With God in the hole you're a righteous soul
I got a halo round me, I got a halo round me
I'm not the same as you
Cos I've seen the light and I'm gaining in height now
I got a halo round me, I got a halo round me
I got a halo round my head

God is on the cellphone
God is on the net
God is in the warning
God is in the threat

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

What do you make of these lyrics? I'm not sure if the songwriter is pious or not. Any interpretations?

Halo by Porcupine Tree

God is in my head
God is in the trigger
God is in the lead

God is freedom, God is truth
God is power and God is proof
God is fashion, God is fame
God gives meaning, God gives pain

​

Reading through these what I can kind of hear is that this person is saying,
"I'm God myself, or God is whatever or whomever I choose to give proof or power to be."
there is a lot of truth to this, because not everyone has the same God, not everyone believes in the
idea of one God. God is whomever they give control to, themselves, others, the next drink, addictions, or whatever, whomever they give the power to.

at the same time it also sounds like they are saying "God is everywhere,
and omnipresent." then there is the mixed feelings of asking the question.
"Why do you let bad things happen to me?" that they are asking God. Yet at the same time there is also this fear of even asking the question.

They are probably explaining their personal relationship with God at the present moment. They only know what they see around themselves and that is their explanation of God.

"You can be right like me

I got a halo round me, I got a halo round me
I got a halo round my head"

​

this one kind of sounds like they are sort of talking about, or mocking someone
they know about changing their ways with God, maybe they feel left behind?
that's what I get from it, they feel like since that other person has found God, they think they are better,
I guess that is what a lot of people think about people who do find God.

Its sort of alien to those who are left behind, because they didn't go through the same,
changes nor revelations of the changed person. Its the usual reaction, fear and anger.

God is on the cellphone
God is on the net
God is in the warning
God is in the threat

​

again going back to the saying, "God is everywhere"..​

Poker face
by: Lowanla (me)

I've a poker face in the game
it may look like I'm winning but
I'm dying inside, burning alive
you think your so funny
laughing with the crowd
when the crowd is gone
you say you love me again
like I'm the ugliest secret

carnal imagery flashing inside of my head
its mean and cruel and the feeling
you give is shackles and a prison
it has not been a walk in the park
there has never been a wedding
only secret tears shedding

you think this is enough,
you think I am strong enough,
no, I hurt,
I suffer,
I die,
for years
I've been dying,

what have I done?
but since the beginning lifted you up,
I am human looking at the sky,
for the sky is hope
where I come to life
hope is my mask
but under it

I am dying,
alone..

​

 

[Wolf]

I am thankful to the Lord for..

Well...lets see I am alive,
I have many friends,
I got a job,
I signed up for classes this semester,
I have this supernatural protection,
I love my family members,
that they are healthy and healing, and blessed,
the one I love is alive and okay, I pray for him when I can,
even though its rocky I am trying to stay in Gods will for my life,
I am healthy,
i have a good church I go to,
I have good relatives, I love them
I am thankful for his mercy and grace and forgiveness,
for my pets all being alive and healthy.

there is more to be thankful for.. but
I thought I'd put this down,

Thankyou Lord Jesus for you are good and your mercy endures forever,
I will not forget your goodness, and what you have done for me,
and what you are doing for me.

(I've been wanting to do this for a while now, just putting down what I am
thankful for )

Only Human
by: Lowanla (me)

Ethereal expectations
prove too much sometimes
shes only human, only human
she doesn't want to be
another statistic,
just another love,
and move on past her
to another day
to a new love,
leaving her broken alone

She waits for the meaningful life,
for the relationship of a lifetime,
Oh Lord God,
the past has not destroyed her,
for you hold her in your hand,
you will not let her fall into darkness

Ethereal expectations
She doesn't want to be a second mistress,
she doesn't want to be a secret lover,
she dreams out in the open
she lives her life with meaning
everyone who is a part of her life
means something

Remind her Lord,
you are with her, even when the darkness comes,
remind her Lord that you have the power to
save those she loves, and deliver them all,
even when threatening situations come
shes only human, only human
help her out

She lives her life out in the open,
She's not hiding anymore.

​

 

[Wolf]

Do I love you?
Why Yes I do
Do I need you?
of course
You are important to me..

I don't know why
it has to be this way, but I know you love me.
Its hard for me when the doubts come,
when the fears and thoughts come.
because i'm standing in the darkness
with you.

I just wish sometimes I could do things
the way I've always dreamed,
because they are important to me,
to my heart.

I don't know whats important to your heart,
or why you have to be satisfied with this.
I wish I could understand you.

I don't know what you want.
I don't know what I can give you.
I don't know how to make you happy.
I don't know you...

​

 

[Wolf]

every time you hold me in your arms
I'll have to admit I am happy every time
For every single precious moment I'm really happy,
..I wish the feeling would never end..
I really wish it would never end,
but maybe I am thinking too much,
I'm enjoying this, I enjoy you,
I love you.

My sweetheart

Standing by you
by: Lowanla (me)

If you need me to hold your hand
I will stand beside you
If this is Gods plan
that I am to be beside you
to help you face each hellish day
I'll be happy that person
To face and fight the pain in the dark
to empathize with your sorrows
is this what it means to truly love
and be a help mate at your side
I only ask to be prayed for strength daily
to encourage you.
There are things you face I feel
that frighten me at times.
Yet they have no overcame the holy one within
you hold me at your side
because you don't want to be alone
I don't want you to be alone either

I am humble to admit, I am not my own
so if God allows this then the mercy is on him,
I can put down my pride and let you hold me
he'll repay me in kind one day for whatever
I give up for him, even my own future.
I know I am not my own but his alone.
If he allows this to happen
he must really love you to want you to have peace
no matter what.

so at your side I'll be, this way,
I will hold your hand.
I will love you with all I have
just pray for strength that daily I shall stand.

I love you.​

 

[Wolf]

I don't know if there are any more mispell errors, but
leave it to me to make a pretty serious heartfelt love letter
sound funny lol Oh well I wish they made the 5 minute into a 10 minute,
I usually catch my misspelling way afterward. hehe

I corrected the misspelling though

"Yet they have not overcame the holy one within" no=not

The Lord My God
Is above every and all gods,
there is no Symbol,
there is no human,
there is no devil,
there are no demons,
there are no idols,
there is no spiritual force,
greater than my God

For these are temporary and will soon fall
but the Lord God is forever and eternal

For my guy,

I speak this over your life
I will not be witness to your death,
but I will witness God deliver you out of ALL your tormentors,
and torments,
and he will deliver you out of everyone of them.
He will save your life and you will prosper by his hand,
and you will know that Jesus is Lord.
The whole world will know and many will be saved because of it.

For every time you enter into my life in your way, you enter into my territory,
you have given me permission to speak life into your own life.
and I say.. You will live and not die, and declare the works of the Lord,
for he is good and his mercy endures forever.
​

 

[Wolf]

I just came from church and I feel so good today, I feel so alive, I feel so full of joy and hope.
I had to say those words of life, not out of arrogance but out of hope and life for the one I love.
If I did not love him I would not speak life over him. I'm so happy right now.
