Please Be My Strength by Gungor

April 26th, 2010 No comments

I’ve tried to stand my ground
I’ve tried to understand but I can’t seem to find my way

like water on the sand or grasping at the wind
I keep on falling short

please be my strength
please be my strength
I don’t have anymore
I don’t have anymore

I’m looking for a place that I can plant my faith
one thing I know for sure

I cannot create it, I cannot sustain it
It’s Your love that’s keeping me

please be my strength
please be my strength
I don’t have anymore
I don’t have anymore

at my final breath I hope that I can say
I’ve fought the good fight of faith

I pray your glory shines through this doubting heart of mine
so my world would know that You

You are my strength
You and You alone
You and You alone
Keep bringin me back home…

The New Year

December 31st, 2009 1 comment

So this is the new year and I don’t feel any different
The clanking of crystal, explosions off in the distance

So this is the new year and I have no resolutions
For self-assigned penance, for problems with easy solutions

So everybody put your best suit or dress on
Let’s make believe that we are wealthy for just this once
Lighting firecrackers off on the front lawn
As thirty dialogues bleed into one

I wish the world was flat like the old days
Then I could travel just by folding a map
No more airplanes, or speedtrains, or freeways
There’d be no distance that can hold us back

There’d be no distance that could hold us back
There’d be no distance that could hold us back

So this is the new year…
