Lyrics of the Day:
“I don’t wanna’ spend my life jaded
Waiting to wake up one day and find
That I’ve let all these years go by
Wasted
Oh I don’t wanna’ keep on wishing, missing
The still of the morning, the color of the night
I ain’t spending no more time
Wasted”

Quote of the Day:
“Off to one side sits a group of shepherds. They sit silently on the floor, perhaps perplexed, perhaps in awe, no doubt in amazement. Their night watch had been interrupted by an explosion of light from heaven and a symphony of angels. God goes to those who have time to hear him–and so on this cloudless night he went to simple shepherds.”
~ from “The Arrival” by Max Lucado

Lyrics of the Day:
“I heard the belIs on Christmas Day
Their old familiar carols play.
And wild and sweet the words repeat
Of Peace on earth, good will to men.
I thought how as the day had come
The belfries of all Christendom
Had rolled along the unbroken song
Of Peace on earth, good will to men.
And in despair, I bowed my head:
‘There is no peace on earth,’ I said,
‘For hate is strong and mocks the song,
Of Peace on earth, good will to men.’
Then pealed the bells more loud and deep;
‘God is not dead, nor doth He sleep;
The wrong shall fail, the right prevail,
With Peace on earth, good will to men‘.”

Lyrics of the Day:
“Long lay the world in sin and error pining,
Till He appeared and the soul felt its worth.
A thrill of hope, the weary soul rejoices,
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn.
Fall on your knees, O hear the angel voices!
O night divine, O night when Christ was born!
O night, O holy night, O night divine!”

Lyrics of the Day:
“She knows the world is just her stage
And so she’ll never misbehave
She gives thanks for what they gave her
Man, they practically made her
Into a mmm
She’s the one that stumbles when she talks about
The seven foreign films that she’s checked out
Such a fortunate fool
She’s just too good to be true
She’s such a fortunate fool ”

Lyrics of the Day:
“It’s so like you just to show up at my door
And act like nothin’s happened
You think I’ll sweep my heart up off the floor
And give it to you
Like so many times before
You’re talking to a stranger
I’m not that girl anymore
That girl is long gone
Boy you missed the boat it just sailed away
Long gone
She’s not drowning in her yesterdays
Betcha never thought I’d be that strong
Well this girl is long gone”

Lyrics of the Day:
“Life is cheap, bittersweet
But it taste good to me
Take my turn, crash and burn
That’s how it’s supposed to be
So don’t rain on my parade
Life’s too short to waste one day
I’m gonna risk it all, the freedom to fall
Yes it sure looks good to me”

Verse of the Day:
“O Israel, my faithless people,
come home to me again,
for I am merciful.
I will not be angry with you forever.
Only acknowledge your guilt.
Admit that you rebelled against the Lord your God
and committed adultery against him
by worshiping idols under every green tree.
Confess that you refused to listen to my voice.
I, the Lord, have spoken!”
~Jer 3:12-13

“What I’d give to make you coffee.
Find out how you like your eggs.
Wrapped around you in the mornin’.
A tangled lace of arms and legs.
What I’d give to let you love me.
Find out everything that brings you joy.
Wake up to your face above me.
I’d be that girl and you could be that boy.
Find out why that feelin’ is…
Oh, what I’d give. What I’d give.”

Its leaking out all over my skin

Your making me weak with the way you
Look through those eyes
But all I see is your face
All I need is your touch
Wake me up with your lips
Come at me from up above”
