Odds & Sods

I don't like to post incomplete things. Stories, songs, whatever. This is supposed to be a collection of stuff with a beginning, middle, and end - it's not a diary where I sit and kvetch about inconsequential nonsense, and how my life isn't going how I thought it would, and blah blah blah. Blech.

There comes a point where I have to get stuff down on "paper", before I lose/forget what I was working on. Vapor trails, and all that. That being said, I need to get some bits and pieces of songs somewhere permanent before they disappear into the mist.

Grace Abounding

I want to die to the power of sin and death
I want to live for the one who gives me breath
I want to be an example of righteousness
And grace abounding
Sing to the glory of his name
Who lifted me from the depths of my guilt and shame
Invited me into a kingdom I could not claim
And turned my life around

Not So Much

Tell me why can't I learn how to trust you
Why can't I give you my heart
Why do I keep doing all of those things
That constantly tear us apart
Why do I find it so hard to believe
In something that I can't touch
Your grace is sufficient
But my faith, not so much

Overcome Me

You've overcome the world
Now overcome me
I stumble in the darkness
'Cause I'm too blind to see
Your plans are so much greater
Than mine could ever be
You've overcome the world
Please overcome me
