Hand In Hand

All I remember
Hand in hand
No faces
You understand?

To me it meant the world
Do you know what I mean?
Hands and skin
Nothing in between

You wouldn't let go
Because it was yours
You let me know
It's just his and hers

That was right on time
I truly appreciate
I ain't going nowhere
Count on that, soulmmate

Which Way To Go

I woke up this morning
With a burning desire
To go to you
It's like a blazing fire

I don't have a map
I don't know which way to go
Where should I start
I don't know

I feel my soul and body
Want to start walking down the street
I guess just walking aimlessly
Until we two shall meet

I want to jump out of my skin
And go directly just to you
It's killing me inside
Oh, what am I to do?

Please give me an answer
Please give it right away
I'll be listening for your response
What do you have to say?

Take Me With You

Take me with you
Don't  make me stay
That's what I want
That's what I pray

You say "I want that too
But  you must wait.
It'll happen when it should
And not before that date

You know that it's true
I want to take you with me
I will when I can
Just think how sweet it'll be!"

Sigh! OK, I'll wait 
If that's what I have to do.
I'll never give up waiting
For you to take me with you.

What I Need

What use would fortune and riches be
If I couldn't share it with you
Fancy cars and mansions
What would they do

Sure, I'd have satin sheets and pillows
On which to lay my head and cry
Nicer conditions, yes
But my pillow would never be dry

Lots of nice clothes and jewelry
Everyone would be impressed
But without you there with me
I'd be truly depressed

I have no worldly ambitions
Except to give my love
Nothing else could be better
My sweet turtle dove







Lord Have Mercy

Lord, have mercy
On my soul
Please, oh please
Make me whole

Don't know what I'm doing
Don't know what to say
I'm depending on you
To show me the way

I no longer try to pretend
Like I really am in charge
My way is fruitless
Your way is large

Treat me like clay
In your potter's hands
Let me mold to your desire
As your will demands

Let me rest in your care
As I follow your goal
You give my heart peace
I give you my soul

The Good From The Bad

You're the good
Born from the bad
I guess it was worth
All the sorrows I've had

What I experienced
It was what it was
Does it kinda make sense now?
Yes, I think that it does

It's not very easy
By others, being misunderstood
But unless they have been there
They never could

All that I know
Is that I was on the brink
Thanks to God's grace
My ship didn't sink

I was lead down that path
With all those troubles I went through
I was lead to the truth
And that truth is you

I'll be devoted to my purpose
Until God calls me home
I will accept my reward
Which shall never roam

Sweet Tea

A nice cool drink
Of sweet tea
Would really hit the spot
And pacify me

A beautiful color
Kind of medium brown
Oh how I desire
To swallow some down

Just how I like it
Tasty and sweet
My mouth longing for the moment
When you and I meet


You're like my oasis 
I'm a desert so dry
You're all I need
To completely satisfy
