Slow It Down

It’s way too easy to lose ourselves in all the busyness from day to day
This time is our time, we do what we want with it, doesn’t matter what we say
Flying ahead at a high rate of speed, to the clock we have found ourselves bound
But the thing we need’s to stop all this running, we’ve gotta stop and slow it down
Slow it down, slow it down
You’ll run yourself into the ground if you don’t stop and slow things down
And spend some time with Him right now
Slow it down, slow it down
The world’s demanding your time and you’re losing ground every time that you give in
Your time’s so precious, you can’t get it back, once it’s gone you won’t see it again
So many distractions competing for time with the One who really matters most
It’s time we wake up and get serious bout the faith we say we hold so close

The Company We Keep
03:35

You’ve gotta watch who you’re letting into
The space around you to call your friends who hang out with you
Some will mislead you, straight up deceive you
To do what they do, they think it’s cool, what will you do?
Cuz I’ve seen it time after time, it’s up to you, whatever you decide
There’s nowhere for you to run and hide, where will you side?
Bad company corrupts integrity
Watch who you’re killing time with, are they what they seem?
And it’s something sad to see
To watch some walk away from what they once had said that they believed
Thank God for friends who won’t up and leave you
For those who listen, those who love you and pray for you
When you need the truth, they’ll give it to you
They won’t be scared to let you know something you need to

Hope For The Hopeless

Some days feel like a waste where nothing ever goes right
Some days you’re on your game, but empty on the inside
It always seems the same, no matter what the day
Don’t even wanna try and nothing really feels ok
It’s time like this the fight feels lost, but really means the most
When there’s so much that’s on the line and losing feels so close
Where is the will to fight? Is it even inside?
It’s hard to hear, but you gotta stoke the flame inside
Don’t you quit! Yeah, don’t give up and see that you’re not in this on your own
Stand up! Fight! God won’t give up on you, He’s got your back and won’t let go
Yeah, it’s a fight, you know the battle’s there inside your head
Nowhere to run, nowhere to hide to get away from it
You’re trying to break free from this insanity
But the thing is, you keep trying to in your own strength
It isn’t hopeless, you should know that there’s a way out
There is a love and there’s a strength to break those chains now
And time and time again, on this you can depend
That if you look for help, in God you’re gonna find it

Deceived

I don’t know what it is that made you look at me this way
Something crawled in your heart, tore us apart, nothing’s the same
You walk on by, your head held high, but do you ever think
Bout what you said and what you did, somehow I’m doubting it
But maybe you’re the victim
Maybe you can’t see past these lies that have you so deceived
But try and open up your heart
Try and open up your eyes, destroy this deceit
I tried to let this pass, but I don’t think it’s going to
It hurts to think about the past and all that we’ve been through
But I forgive you for the pain and hurt you put me through
And pray one day you’ll open up your eyes and see the truth

Where I Stand

Sometimes I wonder where I’d be if You hadn’t changed my life
And I’m not where I wanna be, but grace makes that alright
And You say I’m on my way, I’m living more like You each day
I’m on my way, I’m not the same, and every day I’m seeing change
And I know I’ve ways to go and even if it’s feeling slow
If I want change that takes a hold, I’ve gotta show it’s worth the wait
And some days it’s not so easy
You’ve begun this work in me, it’s a work You’re perfecting
And I know that I will be the way You see me
And I’ll live the best I can, no, it won’t be easy and
I won’t always understand, this is where I stand
Some people try and bring you down cause of how you live your life
They tell you that they know better than you and you ain’t got it right
And You say I’m on my way, I’m living more like You each day
I’m on my way, I’m not the same, and every day I’m seeing change
And I know I’ve ways to go and even if it’s feeling slow
If I want change that takes a hold, I’ve gotta show it’s worth the wait

I still remember the day you passed away
And I remember all those things you used to say
And though I know that you are gone now from my life
I promise now to you that I’ll live my life right
I wish that you could know I’ll never forget you
And I’ll remember you in everything I do
And though you’re gone from me, I’ll hold you in my heart
This way I know that you and I will never part
I know that one day I’ll see you again
All I have left are my memories until then
And now I’m glad to see you’re no longer in pain
It’s hard to believe things may never be the same
I see you in my dreams, I see you in my thoughts
Who do I turn to now? My God, I feel so lost
