Dang, it's been almost 3 months since I posted. YIPES.

Here's just a little piece of something for ya. Enjoy and don't you dare steal. :) (If you do...well..we shall discuss it at a later date.)




I had strayed far
When I first met you;
I close my eyes
And I hear your voice
I'm sitting there,
Far away in the foul air,

I see the world,
Its enchanting draw,
I hear you calling me,
Against the tide
To call my name,
I froze in my shame,

You are the Lord
And you are drawing me to you,
The world said,
"Stay away from Jesus Christ,"
Yet I was clinging to your arms,
Begging, "Please don't make me go."

And you said, "Come with me, child of mine,
You never have to be alone.
I will save you
From this wretched prison cell,
You are mine and
I am yours so
Come with me, now, please
Child of mine, just say yes."

Well, I resisted, thinking that you would
Take me from all that I loved,
And I closed my eyes,
Hiding from your face.
But you were persistent,
You followed me anyway,
Chasing me away from the
World full of lies,
And I fell to my face saying
"Please just let me go!"

And you said, "Child of mine, I love you
How can I just let you go?
I paid the price
And bought you back from me,
You are mine and
I am yours so
Come with me, now, please
Child of mine, just say yes."


I said, "I can't, Lord,
I don't know just what to do,
I want you but
I want the world, too,
Don't you understand that
I've got a dream to gain,
Can't you come back later,
I just can't say yes."


I got tired of waiting,
Wondering if you would ever call my name,
My faith in you was fading,
When I finally sought you out, saying
"Jesus, I need you, please won't you hear me say,
 I love you and never wanna let you go,
Please take my service now,
I can't let go."
He swept me in his arms and
Held me close, saying,

"Child of mine, I have come
Never will I let you go!
You're in my arms now,
I will carry you from here!
You are mine and
I am yours so
Come with me, now, please
Child of mine, just have peace!"


I had strayed far
When I first met you!
