I'm just a simple girl with small hands but a big passion to make a difference in my corner of the world with words, actions, and my life. I'm a poet, a therapist, lover of mountains, sand and surf, quiet woods, and family chatter.
VERSE
I watch the sun's ray's glisten
From this delicate masterpiece,
And my heart can't help but listen
As these crazy worries cease.
CHORUS
Cuz You've woven these threads
Right into Your plan,
Guiding my life with Your gentle hand
As only You can, as only You can.
VERSE
And so even though I cannot see
What's ahead, where You're leading me,
I remember what You've done in the past
Then all these doubts they do not last.
CHORUS
Cuz You've woven these threads
Right into Your plan,
Guiding my life with Your gentle hand
As only You can, as only You can.
BRIDGE
Now I'm trusting You to lead me Lord,
All my loose ends slipping from my hand,
While You gather every single strand
As I'm running toward, I'm running toward
As I'm running toward, I'm running toward
I just wanna run right toward Your plan.
Lord, help me run right toward Your plan,
As only You can, as only You can.
And yes, even though I cannot see
What's ahead, where You're leading me,
I remember what You've done in the past
Then all these doubts, they do not last.
CHORUS
Cuz you've woven these threads
Right into Your plan,
Guiding my life with Your gentle hand
As only You can, as only You can.
REPRISE (to end)
Only You, only You can
Only You, only You can
Yes, only You, only You can
As only You can.
VERSE
When I feel the sun upon my face
I imagine the warmth of your embrace.
As the light falls softly on me now
Deep inside I'm healed somehow.
CHORUS
Cuz you are the light of the world
And nothing that it's unfurled
Could take away what you've given me
When you chose to die upon that tree.
VERSE
When I hear the birds begin to sing
I feel the peace only you can bring.
And you're right beside me, with me here
As close as my breath, you draw so near.
CHORUS
Cuz you are the light of the world
And nothing that it's unfurled
Could take away what you've given me
When you chose to die upon that tree.
BRIDGE
And you're filling all of my senses
Breaking down my defenses
Cuz you are, you are, you are
Yes, you are, you are, you are
CHORUS
You are the light of the world
And nothing that's its unfurled
Could take away what you've given me
When you chose to die upon that tree.
ENDING REPRISE
Cuz you are, you are, you are
You are the light of the world
Yes, you are, you are, you are,
You are the light of the world.
Though you've said don't be afraid -
Trust the promises I have made.
It's so easy in this world down here
To fall into doubt and fear.
Though you've given me this day, this life
And I've seen joy, not only strife
Sometimes I just lose sight of you
But you're still there to see my through.
CHORUS
So, Lord Thee I adore!
Praises from these lips I pour.
Lips unworthy to sing
Your name, my Savior, my King.
You see, mistakes, I've made more than a few
Without you what would I do?
For though I try, I can't measure up.
Only you can fill my cup.
'Cause not one piece of gold or gem
Could ever pay for one of them.
You alone could pay the price
And freely made that sacrifice.
CHORUS
So, Lord, Thee I adore!
Praises from these lips I pour.
Lips made worthy to sing
Your name, my Savior, my King.

CHORUS
If I woke in the mornin'
And I left on an eastbound plane,
Would you miss me?
Would you even care?
If I left in the evening,
Drove away in the pouring rain,
Would you miss me?
Would you want me there?
VERSE
Cuz the days are runnin'
'Round in my head
Dancing with the words
that you said.
So, I wonder,
Yea I wonder...
CHORUS
If I woke in the mornin'
And I left on an eastbound plane
Would you miss me?
Would you even care?
If I left in the evening
Drove away in the pouring rain
Would you miss me?
Would you want me there?
VERSE
'Cause the pain is crashing
Over me now
Drownin' out the love
Yet Somehow
I still wonder,
Yeah, I wonder...
CHORUS
If I woke in the mornin'
And I left on an eastbound plane
Would you miss me?
Would you even care?
If I left in the evenin'
Drove away in the pouring rain
Would you miss me?
Would you want me there?
Would you miss me?
Would you miss me?
Sometimes the days feel hard
And I lose my way.
Not sure what to even say
Though I try to pray.
CHORUS
When I'm swimming in a sea
Of uncertainty
And I've forgotten who I am,
Gently, you come reaching out to me
Whispering, you're the daughter of the lamb.
Emotions running deep
And pouring from my eyes.
Can you make sense of my sighs?
Catch my wordless cries?
CHORUS
Cuz I'm swimming in a sea
Of uncertainty
And I've forgotten who I am
Gently, please come reaching out to me
Whispering, you're the daughter of the lamb.
Repeat CHORUS
When I'm swimming in a sea
Of uncertainty
And I've forgotten who I am,
Gently, you come reaching out to me
Whispering you're the daughter of the lamb.
Watching you today in you cap and gown
And looking in your eyes so deep and brown
I see bedtime stories and lullabies
And I can't believe how time flies.
Before the time I could even hold you
The angels whispered what I already knew-
That this little mir'cle sent from above
Would bless my life with light and love.
Chorus
Bedtime stories and lullabies
I can't believe how time flies.
Big imagination and graceful twirls
The dress up days and the little blonde curls
Tea parties, sleepovers and friends on the phone
It's so amazing how quickly you've grown.
Chorus
Bedtime stories and lullabies
I can't believe how time flies.
Bridge
From baby girl to the woman today
So many memories along the way.
Though I know your wise heart, so kind and true
Will always be your guide and see you through
As you follow your dreams and find your own way
It's hard to let go, so let me today
Remember...
Chorus
Bedtime stories and lullabies
For I can't believe how time flies.
If life should ever come to break your heart
Or try to tear your dreams apart
Think of bedtime stores and lullabies
And my love will surround you though time flies.
Tea parties, dress-up clothes are put away
But in a mother's heart, little girl's stay.
Standing here today, looking in your eyes
I see bedtime stories and lullabies
Chorus
Bedtime stories and lullabies
I can't believe how time flies.
