DAUGHTER OF HEAVEN
Seems like the first step is always the hardest
but look how far you've come
It isn't the first time, it won’t be the last time
that your heart feels numb.
The wind blows my hair back, I can’t seem to react
to everything I see.
I walk on the shoreline, can’t seem to define,
where this path will lead.
I must have been someone, before I was me.
I hear my heart whisper of who I used to be.
A daughter of God
A daughter of Heaven
It’s who you've always been.
Don't let your fears
Make your decisions,
You can turn to him,
Turn to him.
Look down at my footsteps, all of my regrets—
concrete in the sand.
Light of the sunrise, shows the nights disguise,
the waves came rolling in.
I must have been someone, before I was me.
I hear my heart whisper of who I used to be.
A daughter of God
A daughter of Heaven
It’s who you've always been.
Don't let your fears
Make your decisions,
You can turn to him.
x2
A daughter of God
A daughter of Heaven
It’s who you've always been.

HIS EYES
When your heartache comes
And everything's going wrong
And you feel like you’re about to give up
Just look to him
He knows your pain
He knows what you’re going through
Don’t be ashamed, for
You are special in His eyes
Everything you are is important,
Don’t think otherwise
The Lord sees you as you could be,
Cause you have the choice of happiness with Him for eternity
When the world will say you're not enough,
You are
In the midst of your pain
When you just want it all to go away
try this simple key to happiness
rather than looking down
at yourself with a worldly view
ask Him to help you see yourself,
the way that he see you, for
You are special in His eyes
Everything you are is important,
Don’t think otherwise
The Lord sees you as you could be,
Cause you have the choice of happiness with Him for eternity
When the world will say you're not enough,
You are
You are
You’re wonderful, incredible
You’re beautiful and wonderful
Lovely and unstoppable
You're everything to Him
You're beautiful and wonderful
You're lovely and you're unstoppable
To Him
To Him
You're everything to Him

ONE GLANCE
I'm sittin here just looking in your eyes.
Though once we thought the sun would never rise,
It did.
We made it through the storms.
My hearts been beatin since I met you way back then,
Thunder shakin through my soul--
Tell me again,
Am I still your friend?
It's complicated and I hope it's not my fault.
I know I love you but my heart is locked like a vault...
One glance tells me all.
You never know the strength of Hell
until you try to leave.
Give it all you've got and wish him well,
He'll never leave.
I recognize this road I can't ignore.
Inside me it's brewin cold war,
But I know what I'm looking for.
It's complicated and I know it's all my fault.
(I'm sittin here lookin into your eyes)
You know I love you but my heart is locked like a vault...
(I knew inside that the sun would always rise.)
One glance tells me all.
You never know the strength of Hell
until you try to leave.
Give it all you've got and wish him well,
He'll never leave. x2
You never know the strength of Hell
until you try to leave.
Give it all you've got and wish him well,
Just believe.

SIDEWALK CHALK
How many times have you written your story
Upon concrete ground
Then stood to admire the work you have done
As you looked all around
Then suddenly a voice comes to you, saying
I love you
But not the plan you've thought through
So I’m sending the rain
To wash it away
So, together, we’ll write a plan one down
Then, together, we’ll write a plan one down
Gazing at the spot where your life plan once was
But now it’s all gone
Wondering why can’t what I want be what’s best for me,
What have I done wrong?
But then, again, that voice, it comes to you, saying
I love you
But not the plan you've thought through
So I sent the rain
To wash it away
So, together, we could write a plan one down
Now, together, let's write a plan one down
Even though the plan I drew,
Simply got washed away,
I’m starting to realize why
For You see with a perspective that I sometimes forget to
But from now on, I will say to you
I love you
So I’ll do what you want me to
For I know your plan will bring me back to you
And that’s all I want to do
Is be forever, eternally with you

WHAT YOU HAVE
She drops the phone, once clasped in her hand
She heard the news but can’t seem to comprehend,
Could this be real?
Tears fall uncontrollably down her cheek
Trying to be strong, but she feels so weak
What she wouldn't give to tell her...
Seems you never know what you have til it’s gone
So don’t let a moment pass you by
Take it from someone who’s suffered regret
Please, take this advice, I cry
You never know what you have til it’s gone
Just take life slow, please pause this marathon
Tell the ones you love,
What they mean to you
The little memories race all through her mind
Of Alexis Rae, the sweetest friend one could find
A smile broke through the pain
Of her candy corn shoes, her contagious smile
The way we’d laugh at potatoes every once in a while
The love you gave still remains
Seems you never know what you have til it’s gone
So don’t let a moment pass you by
Take it from someone who’s suffered regret
Please, take this advice, I cry
You never know what you have til it’s gone
Just take life slow, please pause this marathon
Tell the ones you love,
What they mean to you
You never know what you have til it’s gone
Just take life slow, please pause this marathon
For you,
Advice for you,
Tell the ones you love, what they mean to you.

ANGELS ARE CHEERING
I’ve been feelin’ kind of down
All my hopes have run aground
And no one anywhere will listen.
How can God be real?
How come people never kneel?
But they’ll step on you to gain the world.
Heavenly Father can you hear me?
I’m drownin’ right now.
I wish I could be near thee,
But I just can’t seem to figure out how.
The night was cold dark and bleak,
An icy wind bit my cheek,
The silent snow a whispering call.
And as I fell to my knees,
I desperately cried please—
Please if you’re there I need to know.
Then as I looked up I beheld stars and galaxies, and I thought I heard...
Angels, Cheering,
“We want you to hold on!"
Oohs
(musical interlude)
I got a call from my friend Clark
he said, “I’m feeling awfully dark,
This cancer’s finally takin’ me.
I’ve been fighting my whole life,
Got two kids and a dear wife,
When will my prayers be heard on high?
Heavenly Father can you hear me? The angels are cheering
I’m drownin’ right now. They want you to hold on.
I wish I could be near thee, The angels are cheering for you
But I just can’t seem to figure out how. Every time you lift the one.
How can I know your words are true?
Just can’t see through this foggy hue,
Life’s shadows are surrounding me.
But as I focus on His light like the dawn of endless night,
I hear their song, it sets me free…
I hear Angels Cheering,
“We want you to hold on,
Trust God,
Believe in good things to come!”
