**I Just Come To Talk To You Lord**








I just come to talk to you Lord you know friend to friend
I am carryin’ a heavy burden and I’m, "all down" again
You see my heart so plain Lord nothing I try to hide
I need ask you to calm the storm that’s brewing deep inside



Many times oe’r the years I’ve had a talk with you
I’ve shed bitter tears, but you’ve always seen me through
So if you’ll just hold my hand awhile and let me rest by...

1Sa 17:45 Then said David to the Philistine, Thou comest
to me with a sword, and with a spear, and with a shield:
but I come to thee in the name of the LORD
of hosts, the God of the armies of Israel
whom thou hast defied.
1Sa 17:48 And it came to pass, when the Philistine
arose, and came, and drew nigh to meet David, that
David hastened, and ran toward the army to meet the Philistine.
1Sa 17:49 And David put his hand in his bag, and
took thence a stone, and slang...

It's me here again my Father
At the foot of a great high hill
It seems each one I encounter
I find it higher still

This time it looks so steep
And rough all around the ledge
The first thing I must do is
Around the devil build a hedge



I'm in the valley of decision
One of the hardest I've ever known
I must ask Thee for a double
Portion of faith to be shown

I'm trying to be strong Lord
With all of my might
But doubts and fears start...

Trusting God and His Word!
Psalms 31:24 Be of good courage, and he shall
strengthen your heart, all ye that hope in the LORD.
Psalms 73:26 My flesh and my heart faileth: but
God is the strength of my heart, and my portion for ever.

Light My Way


I left the light on waiting for you,
to light you're way back home.
Where did you go, what did you do?
Don't you know I'm here waiting
for you with the light still on.

Time has stopped,
days have grown shorter,
the nights so very long
Our house is not a home anymore,
without you walking through the door.
The chair you used to set in
has long gone out to store.

I'm still here waiting for you
to return to me once more.
I...

A Cold Winters Night
On a cold winters night, love lifted me
It was time for my friend to be set free
The room was quiet, not a word spoken
Trying to hold on to a life that has been broken

All of a sudden the heart beat stopped
I could feel the pain of my heart being chopped
But in a second I looked to see
God had taken my friend, and had rescued me
His face as bright as a shining day
His love in my heart forever to stay

One taken to heaven, one left...

A World Around You
I built my world around you,
started a new life with you.
I laughed a million laughs with you,
walked a million miles beside you.
Brought a new life
into this world with you.

We built a new home together,
made for just you and me
and the family.
I stood beside you when things
got rough. We grew to be tough,
a million times stronger, standing
together through all kinds of weather.

You made me your wife,
I made you my...

Empty Chair



How can life go on
As though you never were?
You left traces in the hearts
Of all those you loved.

The trees that you planted
Still bear their fruit,
And the flowers in your garden,
They still bloom.

Your chair now sets empty.
There's reminders of you in every room.
But it's all so still and quiet now,
How can this be true?

My heart can't comprehend
That you're really gone.
At times I think I hear you call...
