Thank You, God
As she stood at the top of the stairs, she'd say "honey time to get up"
Wiping the sleep from my eyes I'd say "okay Mom"
As I went on with my six year old life
I never even realized
How much work
How much time had been spent on me
Now I see
Thank You God
As she stood at the open back door
She'd say honey have a great day
Turning to see her smile I'd say "okay Mom"
As I went on with my teenage life
I never even realized
How much work
How much time had been spent on me
Now I see
Thank You God
As a grown man now with a child of my own
I stop when I hear the words "okay Mom"
As she says this to my wife
I finally come to realize
How much work
How much time must be spent on these
Now I see
Thank You God
For making Moms

Every Time
There's a red bird
Sitting outside my window today
And as it flutters, the colors
Catch my eye and take my breath away
And it's not that I've nothing better to do
But I sit here it seems unable to move
And my mind once again turns to thoughts of You
Because every time I see something beautiful
I think of You of You
Every time I see something beautiful
I think of You
I watch the water catching, reflecting the light
The waves are rolling, moving
Its like they're playing
Like a child might
And it's not that I've nothing better to do
But I sit here it seems unable to move
And my mind once again turns to thoughts of You
Because every time I see something beautiful
I think of You of You
Every time I see something beautiful
I think of You

My Best Friend
Some people say nothing lasts forever
Things change and fall apart
But I've found a bond that will stay together
Since Jesus came in my heart
He's my best friend, He'll love me forever
He's my best friend, He says He'll never leave
No matter the time, the place, the weather
Jesus will always be my best friend
Some people say a friend can't be trusted
Don't let them get too near
But Jesus is not like any other
I know I've nothing to fear
He's my best friend, He'll love me forever
He's my best friend, He says He'll never leave
No matter the time, the place, the weather
Jesus will always be my best friend
Saviour, Redeemer, He knows every need
He's always helping and saying good things about me
He's my best friend, He'll love me forever
He's my best friend, He says He'll never leave
No matter the time, the place, the weather
Jesus will always be my best friend

Choose Me
In the 7th grade, everything seems like such a big deal
You're judged by things like a brand of jeans or your Mom and Dad's wheels
It's a jigsaw world where troubled boys and girls try to fit in
And everyody says "choose me"
When it came to fun, all the gifted ones got to choose sides
The rest all feared that they'd not hear their name called in time
Being left alone in a crowd is known to break a young heart
When every heart saye "choose me.
Choose me. I'll be so good for you
Choose me. Don't break this heart in two
I want to be the one you need
Just call out my name. Choose me.
On a TV screen I watched a scene from an orphanage home
The kids sat there in a quiet despair at being left all alone
When I looked in their eyes
I could almost hear their cries for a place to fit in
As their yearning hearts said "choose me"
Choose me. I'll be so good for you
Choose me. Don't break this heart in two
I want to be the one you need
Just call out my name. Choose me.
Jesus knows every single time a broken heart cries out.
He knows what we're going through
Feels the things we do
Because He's been here too
When the time had come
God sent His Son to stand in our place
His perfect life, a sacrifice
A payment for our disgrace
And now we all receive according to what we believe
And the choices we make
As God's Spirit calls to us "choose Me!"
Choose Me.
I'll be so good for you
Choose Me.
I won't break your heart in two
I want to be the One you need
Just call out My name. Choose Me.
I want to be the One you need
Just call out My name. Choose Me.
When I Think Of You
When I think of You
It always makes me smile
When I think of You
I'm happy for a while
I've come to find when You cross my mind
It happens every time
You make me smile
I have found that life is full of change
Walking proud then falling on my face
But there's a place I can go where You always are
Waiting there for me
Ageless in my heart
When I think of You
It always makes me smile
When I think of You
I'm happy for a while
I've come to find when You cross my mind
It happens every time
You make me smile
I have found that life's a lonely place
In a crowd searching for a friendly face
But there's a place I can go when I need a friend
I just close my eyes
And Youre there once again
When I think of You
It always makes me smile
When I think of You
I'm happy for a while
I've come to find when You cross my mind
It happens every time
You make me smile

Know Good
Jesus told about a man
Who went walking down a road
How he'd been beaten, robbed and stripped
Left bleeding in the cold
Oh that's no good
Then along came two more men
You'd have thought they would help
Don't you know that they just walked on by
Only thinking of themselves
Oh that's no good
You see
It's no good just to know good
If you're not going to do it. Oh no.
It's no good just to know good
You've got to put some action to it
It's no good just to know good
It's NO good just to KNOW good
The Bible tells about a man who tried running in a boat
He didn't want to do what God had said
And ended up going down some fishes throat
Oh that's no good
You see
It's no good just to know good
If you're not going to do it. Oh no.
It's no good just to know good
You've got to put some action to it
It's no good just to know good
It's no good just to know good
