Mixtape

Theyve made me feel like a prisoner...theyve dragged me down back to where I began
So I pray God, would You make this stop...Father please hold on to me Youre all Ive got
Come just as you are to me don't need apologies...Know that you are worthy
God, Your voice is the only thing I need to hear
You are my hiding place

Carry me now from my sinking sand to Your solid ground
You can heal the heartache, speak over the fear
I can hear your heart reaching for me now
Let go and just be free, I will love you unconditionally
My soul will rest in Your embrace 


Theres a cry in my heart, for Your presence to fill up my senses
Lord I need You, every hour I need you
I need Your perfect love, I need Your discipline 
Theres a yearning again...a hunger for things that are deeper
Could you take me beyond?

Knowing that Your perfect grace has brought me to this place
Im offering up my life- a living sacrifice
Let my words be life, let my words be truth
Come search my heart and purify my life
So teach my song to rise to you, when temptation comes my way
Lord, please keep making me

I lift my hands cuz You set me free
You are more than my words could ever say
Falling inlove and seeking Your truth
I am Yours and you are mine
Not for a moment will You forsake me
You are Lord over all my days

I decided to try something new, yet again. I wanted to post one last time this year on how my relationship with the Lord has drastically changed from the beginning of my freshman year in college to now, so I took lyrics from different songs to form something which reflects these past three semesters.

Though my life plan, friendships, and my relationship with Him have changed, He is the one and only thing in my life that has remained the same. Ive learned I cannot rely on people or the world to satisfy me, to comfort me. I can rely on Christ. When everyone and everything disappears He will be the one thing remaining. I love that because I have attachment issues. I get close to someone, they leave. I get close to someone, I leave. I pursue a friendship, it doesnt last. I run away from God, He chases me down and proves over and over that He will not leave...ever. He is nothing like any human Ive met. He is perfect. He is everything I need. And how did I get to this point in my life? well that is a long story...lets just say heartache and disappointment finally found hope and truth.

arent You

me and You 

or you and me

or Both

you tear me down

You build me up

to independence 

apart from you

but yet

my heart still longs

for you

waits

aches

to fill

where you should be

or You

but why

do i need you

when i have

You

my One

my All

my Everything

isnt enough

why

do i need 

you
