Hey Jeanne, I hope things are going good for you and your family. And I too love the song you posted very much. Today my mom and I went out to my grandma and grandpa's grave, to see about putting some flowers down this weekend. And I as I stood over there grave, I said a little prayer to myself. I told them how much I miss them and love them. My grandma was like a second mom to me, she would look after me while my mom was at work or just wanted to go out. My mom was a single parent for the first 3 years of my life, so it was really hard on her at times.

Diane, I am so sorry, I hope you will be able to find a job soon.

Another great MercyMe song... (Can you tell I am newly hooked on them?!)

No apologies
For who I'm meant to be
The only thing that matters is
I am free
When I am overwhelmed
Holding pieces of my heart
When I feel my world
Start to fall apart

To the cross I run
Holding high my chains undone
Now I am finally free
Free to be what I've become
Undone

Even in defeat
The face of tragedy
Still you'd have to say that
I found victory
In brokenness comes beauty
Divine fragility
Reminding me of nail scarred hands
Reaching out for me

To the cross I run
Holding high my chains undone
Now I am finally free
Free to be what I've become

To the cross I run
Holding high my chains undone
Now I am finally free
Free to be what I've become
Undone

Hallelujah I'm undone!

To the cross I run
Holding high my chains undone
Now I am finally free
Free to be what I've become

To the cross I run
Holding high my chains undone
Now I am finally free
Free to be what I've become
Undone

To the cross I run
To be what I've become
And I'm undone


I didn't know you lost a brother, I am sorry to hear that. My mom lost twins years before I was born, and I know she is with them now. I look forward to the day I meet them!

Hey Sarah! Always good to see you.

Who here was interested in possibly meeting at Hershey park at the end of June? Any takers.
love ya all...

 

[Otto's Doll]

Now's the tome
Let the redeemed celebrate
If you know what I know
You can't wipe the smile off your face
Oh people, stand up and praise

CHORUS
There's a reason to dance
There's a reason to sing
Of the sacred romance
With our Savior and King
We lift up our hands
We fall on our knees
To the Son of Man
The reason we are free
There's a reason

All glory to
The King of Kings, Lord if Lords
Oh the value of Your worth
No worldly treasures can afford
And we praise You forevermore

REPEAT CHORUS

There's a reason to stand
There's a reason to shout, to shout Your name on high
So we take up our cross, there's a reason to die
Because Jesus is alive

There's a reason

REPEAT CHORUS

There's a reason
You are the reason
The reason we are free


(yup, you guessed it.. MercyMe. I listened to them for hours today in the car).

 

[Otto's Doll]

Another rainy day
I can't recall having sunshine on my face
All I feel is pain
All I wanna do is walk out of this place
But when I am stuck and I can't move
When I don't know what I should do
When I wonder if I'll ever make it through

I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
Your the one that's keeping my heart beating
I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
That's the only way that I'll find healing

Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing

Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing

Oh You're everything I need
And I gotta keep singing


This one is my favorite.. if you could hear it you would understand! The word picture of climbing up on Jesus' lap, and having Him sing over me is so overwhelmingly (is that even a word?) beautiful. I am in awe at His love for me, and this song just reminds me that I truly am His child... and He is always there for me.

Hey Jeanne, it's always good to see you too! And I sure wish I could find away to go to Hershey park to met you and your family. Is Jilly going too?
One of these day's we will have to set up a meet that we can all go to, so we can all meet each other in person! I know I am really looking forward to meeting and hanging out with her at Disney World! Just look at my countdown clock!

Oh where, oh where has our Jilly gone, oh where, oh where could she be..... Maybe she is out job hunting and going to interviews. Well where ever you are Jilly I hope you are okay. And please come back to us soon, we miss you.

Thank you Jeanne and Sarah.

Jeanne, I'd love to come to your meet but the distance thing kind of gets in the way! LOL

"Great is Thy mercy toward me." Psalms 86:13

Let's remember to say thank You for that mercy today.

Good Morning Everyone!

I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Good Morning Sis! Only one more day left for you to work after today!

So Is His Love/ FFH

Can you see the sun rise over the hill
Rising warm, free and bright
Feel the grass beneath your feet
Soft, smooth and green

(Chorus)

So is His love
So is His grace
So is the Lord
Come trust His name
See your life renewed
He's the way of today,
Yesterday and to come
So I will sing of Your praise
All of my days
Walk in Your hope
Stand in Your hope

Can you feel the rain fall on your face
Washing all the dirt away
Bring your feet down, splash around
This is our life in Him

(Repeat Chorus)

Do you feel His love fall all over you
Warming you as the sun
Do you feel the light shine on your face
Making the shadows run far, far away

 

[Princess Michelle]

I know! I can't wait!!!!

 

[zen1]

Hey Sis, have fun for me too!

 

[Princess Michelle]

After the last few weeks I've had I'm going to have enough fun for 100 people!!!!

Little Change/ FFH

You've seen it all before
You open up the door and I just turn away
Walk the other way
You offer so much more
Than I could ever ask for
But I say thanks anyway
I go on and on alone
Make believing I can make it on my own

(Chorus)

I think it's time for me to make a change
And start walking back to you
Before I go so far away
That I can't hardly see you
Reaching out,
Calling the prodigal I said I'd never be
Now what I need is a little change

I've played the game before
But now the game is
Taking more than I can give
And I'm dying to give in
But you're holding out for me
But what you're holding out for me
I can barely see
Because my visions' so dim
I try, but I can only hardly recognize
This light that should be blinding my eyes

(Repeat Chorus)

 

[sm4987]

You're right, Michelle, you do deserve it. Have fun

WAY TO GO BEARS IN DEED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

the long dry spell may be over, i think that this can only mean good things for that good ol' baylor line... or maybe it's only a sign of the apocalypse. "i wish we'd all been ready". lol.

diane it's great to see another bear here. even though it's been tough lately 21 years later i still bleed green and gold.

glad someone cleared up the degarmo connection, ever since i saw the name, not really a watcher of ai, i wondered how they were related, too much coincidence not to be.

i have only seen about 20 minutes of ai ever but in the part i saw weeks ago, fantasia (sic) did one of the most moving "summertime"s i've ever heard, in fact simon said it was the best performance in the history of the show. is it any wonder that she won?

well looking for christian music in unlikely places, try the country section of the cd store, some great stuff besides the new randy travis stuff. a couple of top chart toppers lately in "long black train" and "i love you this much". another one a few months back by one of the females about heaven and her daughter, can't remember the name, but she was asking God to hold her hand while she crossed the street in heaven. these songwriters really know how to tug on those strings. check them out.

Lovely are Your dwelling places
Thirsty I run after You
Jesus my joy, my reward
Your love's restoring my soul
Now I'm Yours and You are mine
And from my heart a song will rise

I love You, I love You, I love You
I love You, I love You, I love You
I love You, I love You, I love You
And my heart will follow wholly after You

Jesus there is none beside You
Righteous ruler of the earth
Nations will come and bow down
Name over all names
I sing You praises
And all that I can say to You is

I love You, I love You, I love You
I love You, I love You, I love You
I love You, I love You, I love You
And my heart will follow wholly after You

Hey Everyone!

I just thought I would let you all know that I won't be around tomorrow and maybe all day on sat. too. If I get a chance I will post on sat. night.

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! And Sis, have a wonderful weekend at Universal! Say hi to all the Ghostbusteres for me and try not to drool to much! LOL

Open The Eyes Of My Heart/ Sonic Flood

Open the eyes of my heart, Lord
Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You
I want to see You
Open the eyes of my heart, Lord
Open the eyes of my heart
I want to see You
I want to see You
To see you high and lifted up
Shining in the light of Your glory
Pour out Your power and love
As we sing holy, holy, holy Vs(x2)
(Chorus)
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
Holy, holy, holy
I want to see You Open the eyes of my heart, Lord
Open the eyes of my heart I want to see You I want to
See You
(Chorus)
Holy, holy, holy Holy, holy, holy Holy, holy, holy I want to see You

 

[JC2]

Love that song, Sarah!
We'll certainly miss you tomorrow! Be safe and have fun!

 

[zen1]

Thanks Fur, I will miss you guys too!

Take me in to the Holy of Holies
Take me in by the blood of the Lamb
Take me in to the Holy of Holies
Take the coal
Cleanse my lips
Here I am

Take me past the outer court
Into the Holy place
Past the brazen altar
Lord I want to see Your face
Pass me by the crowds of people
And the priests who sing their praise
Lord I hunger and thirst for Your righteousness
And it's only found one place

Take me in to the Holy of Holies
Take me in by the blood of the Lamb
Take me in to the Holy of Holies
Take the coal
Cleanse my lips
Here I am
