If I Was A Fishy
If I was a fishy, I'd swim lots and lots,
But I'm not, yeah, yeah,
Fishies, rah, rah.
And if I was a fishy, I'd swim lots and lots,
But I'm not, yeah, yeah,
Fishies, rah, rah, yeah, yea.
I Must Be Crazy
I'm here watching you were you are.
Listening to the things that you want me to do.
You say I'll forget, that I'll have no regrets.
But this is where I stand.
There are things that even I will never do.
You say, I may go crazy.
You say, I may go blind.
That's fin, that's fine, that's fine.
I'd rather be those two,
than to straddle the fence like you.
From up there you're looking down on me.
If you were here then you'd be able to see.
Your trying to be just like everybody,
We I know who's I am.
The straight and thin is all I want under me.
You say, I must be crazy.
You say, I must be blind.
That's fine, that's fine, that's fine.
I'd rather be those two,
than to straddle the fence like you.
(I'd have to be those two,
To straddle the fence like you).
The Parent's Song
My Dad, he left when I was young,
And my Mom was stuck with the kids.
I think she did okay with us,
At least people say she did.
She took us to church on Sunday,
And she taught us from the word,
And we did what she told us to,
And we hardly said a word.
Then one day it got harder,
To do the things she said.
I didn't want to be at home,
But rather out there with my friends.
I think that you all understand what I'm trying to say,
Don't blame me for what you've done cause that was yesterday.
Well, you know you've got your problems,
So let them have theirs too.
Cause they're not trying to hold you back,
Their just concerned about you.
And it's not that they don't love you,
Or that they don't care.
They're just trying to protect you,
From what is out there.
And as you're growing up,
They don't know what to do,
Cause they see a little bit of them in you.
They just see a little bit of them in you.
The Wedding Song
A long time ago I know, you committed to another man.
when I look in your eyes,
when I'm holding your hand.
Just Him and me and you.
So I'll stay number two.
My Lord, how can this be, you must really love me,
And He says "Yes".
Then I look in your eyes, I see Him deep inside,
And I know that I'm blessed,
You've given me your second best.
You know that I would die,
Just to keep you safe from harm,
But that fails to compare with the love that He shared when He stretched out His
arms.
Because you've given your life to Him,
But your sharing it with me.
You've given your life to Him,
But your sharing it with me.
He'll always be your first live,
And it's so nice to see,
That you've given Him your heart,
And then He gave it to me.
Do We Deserve Him
You were living alone
inside yourself,
God seemed far away (you had put him far away).
But if you would just turn around you would see his hand was still on your life.
When you feel alone, I'm with thee.
When you feel left out, I'm with thee.
When you feel alone, I'm with thee.
When you feel left out, I'm with thee.
Do we deserve him, when we desert him?
Do we deserve him, when we desert him?
Turn around and take the hand that's on
your life,
Hold it in your own, hold it in your own.
Let the love that's in him flow around you.
Let him be your friend, be your friend.
Now that you've accepted the one who's
been there all of the time.
He looks upon you and says my child, I'm glad you found the way.
Mighty Father
Mighty Father, Mighty Father,
Oh, my Father I call Your name.
Mighty Father, Holy Father,
You will always stay the same.
In Your presence I'm a witness to
The glory all around.
Mighty Father, Loving Father come on down.
Prove Me
Right
I know you need someone to carry you.
You're sick and tired of living like you do.
You believe but still you sing your song.
So why not prove me right if I'm not wrong.
You tell me constantly of things that
go wrong with your life.
You fill my ear with as much as I can stand to hear.
You listen as I respond with The Answer you need.
They fall to the ground and the bird comes and grabs the seed.
Am I wasting your time and mine.
How much more can you ignore.
Am I not getting through to you,
Or am I not seeing an open door.
I want to slap you and just make you
receive what is real.
You're standing in place but don't wanna begin the race.
I want to beg you cause I don't know how long you have got.
You've got your story, but you don't know the plot.
Are you planning to play a game,
Or are you coming around.
I hope to God that you'll look someday,
And seek what you have found.
Oh, My God
Song in Midi
Oh, my God.
You make me happy when I'm sad.
You calm me down when I get mad.
You carry me when times are bad.
Oh, my God.
You are an awesome God I swear,
my life to You, Your cross I'll bear.
The world won't like it like I care.
Oh, my God, You are so mighty.
Oh, my God, I am so needy.
Oh, my God, need You to hold my hand,
take time to help me understand You.
God, You know I love You.
Oh, my God, You know I'll serve You.
Oh, my God, I look at you and see,
the answer to so many things.
Oh, my God.
You always listen when I call.
You give me the jump-start when I stall.
You clean my armor when I fall.
Oh, my God.
There is none like You anywhere,
You know the sand, the stars, my hair.
Where You send me Lord, I'm there.
Show The Way
Song in Midi
Lying on the ground looking up at the
stars,
I can help but think about how far away You are.
High above the clouds and several galaxies away,
But your Spirit is as close to me as my next breath and I say,
Oh, I thank you Lord for Your birth, Your life, Your death you know that,
If You never came for us there'd be nobody else,
I wish that people were more open to the options that You offer,
I think that we could make a difference if we only cared or bothered.
I wanna know Your will oh God,
I wanna know Your way oh God,
I wanna hear Your voice oh God,
I wanna see Your face oh God.
Listen to my cry today,
I'm open and I'll stay that way,
I wanna do Your will I pray,
That others will be shown the way.
Shown the way.
Shown the way.
From what I've heard of You, You like
to look down from above,
And shower all your blessings, share your goodness, show your love,
Oh, I wanna know You Father so much more than I do now,
And I wanna share the message of eternal life and somehow,
Learn to find a way to let Your praises go unending,
And I wanna know the difference between serving and pretending.
I don't want to be the son who's taken all You have to offer,
Without trying to make a difference,
Taking time to care and bother.
Reason
Song in Midi
I was sitting at Mickey D's and I saw
you talking to my friend.
I was a bum and I'm sorry, you helped me change that in the end.
You showed me how to get a life.
I'll love you now until forever when I die.
But if you ever ask me why I won't
know, I won't know.
If you ever need a reason for my love I won't know, I won't know.
There are so many reasons for my love so I don't know, I don't know.
There are too many reasons for my love.
I was standing at the alter, you were
right there with your white dress on.
Moved to a house in Florida, I bought a mower for our lawn.
You've helped me be just who I am.
I'm gonna be with you and love you as long as I can.
Standing
in the Rain
Things aren't working out the way you
thought they would.
Plans you built to hold you up are sinking fast, they will not last.
Everyone you know has ideas for you.
Funny how they can live your life when there's is sinking too.
You hope there are answers to the questions that you have.
You speak only sometimes of the emptiness.
If I can help you mister, God knows that I will.
Life is tough sometimes when you're standing on your own.
It's a little like standing in the
rain.
Yea, you get a little wet at first but hey,
You can only get so wet I hear,
But then you're in up to your ear.
Does anybody feel just like that here.
Anymore
I was going downtown, I was walking to
the store.
I don't want to have to think of you, anymore.
I took down your picture and I threw it on the floor.
I don't want to have to look at you, anymore.
I have got you tattooed on my arm.
I don't think a laser surgeon could do me much harm.
The
Barbie Doll Song
When I grow up, I wanna be a Barbie
doll.
When I grow up, I wanna be 12 inches tall.
I wanna pool so I can swim.
I wanna boyfriend who's named Ken.
When I grow up, I wanna be a Barbie doll.
When I grow up, I wanna have a Barbie
house.
With a Barbie dog, and a Barbie cat, and a Barbie mouse.
I want a swimsuit and some flippers.
I want a little sister named Skipper.
When I grow up, I wanna be a Barbie doll.
When I grow up, I wanna have a Barbie
vette.
I can't fit in it now, but that don't matter yet.
I want some inline skates that spark,
I'll swim with dolphins but no sharks.
Oh, when I grow up, I wanna be a Barbie doll.
I'll have long hair, I'll go nowhere,
I'll eat no eggs.
My hips are wide, my head's hollow inside.
And I am mostly legs.
I've got a horse and a dog of course,
And I have been a mermaid.
I'll never share the stuff I wear, I'll sit and drink some Kool-aid.
But what good's a Barbie doll for?
To stomp and mash and beat on the floor.
When I grow up, I wanna be a Barbie
doll.
When I grow up, I wanna be 12 inches tall.
And if someone pulls off my head,
You might think that I am dead,
But I'll be fine, cause I'll be a Barbie doll!
Guiding Light
I look up at your picture on the wall,
Kind of hard to take it down.
It's been sometime since I've seen your smile,
Feels like forever and a while.
And I know if I'd shown the way to you,
Maybe I'd know where you are today,
But it's a little to late to think that way.
I know my life was not a guiding light,
But I hope you found the Lord in time.
I know my life was not a guiding light,
But I hope you found the Lord in time.
Eighteen years and your time was almost
up,
Your future spanned so far it seemed.
All my convictions shoved back deep inside my head,
Those were the things I should have said.
And I know if I'd shown the way to you,
Maybe I'd know where you are today,
But it's a little to late to think that way.
How many others have there been besides
you,
The love of Jesus never shared.
Why couldn't I have just gotten it together,
I guess because I never cared.
And I know if I'd shown the way to you,
Maybe I'd know where you are today,
But it's a little to late to think that way.
I know my life was not a guiding light,
But I hope you found the Lord in time.
I know my life was not a guiding light,
But I hope you found the Lord in time.
And when I get to heaven, I hope it's you I'll see,
No thanks to me.
