This song is on the WOW #1's CD that is in our kitchen CD player right now, so I've been listening to this song while cleaning the kitchen this week.
Kiss Me by Sixpence None The Richer Kiss me out of the bearded barley Nightly, beside the green, green grass Swing, swing, swing the spinning step You wear those shoes and I will wear that dress.
[Chorus:] Oh, kiss me beneath the milky twilight Lead me out on the moonlit floor Lift your open hand Strike up the band and make the fireflies dance Silver moon's sparkling So kiss me
Kiss me down by the broken tree house Swing me upon its hanging tire Bring, bring, bring your flowered hat We'll take the trail marked on your father's map
I have been loving this song lately. It's on a CD that my mom keeps in our kitchen, so I've been listening to it while I clean the kitchen lately. Plus, it's on the radio a lot. It's one of those songs that even though I hear it SO MUCH, I'm not getting tired of it! I particularly like the part of the child on her wedding day and the daddy who gives her away since I'm obsessed with weddings. :)
Something Beautiful by Newsboys I wanna start it over I wanna start again I want a new a new beginning One without any end I feel it inside Calling out to me
CHORUS It's a voice that whispers my name It's a kiss without any shame Something beautiful Like a song that stirs in my head Singing love will take us where Something's beautiful
I've heard it in the silence Seen it on a face I've felt it in a long hour Like a sweet embrace I know this is true It's calling out to me
CHORUS It's a voice that whispers my name It's a kiss without any shame Something beautiful Like a song that stirs in my head Singing love will take us where Something's beautiful
It's the child on her wedding day It's the daddy that gives her away--Father Something beautiful When we laugh so hard we cry It's the love between you and I Something beautiful
This is another FFH song. When they sing this one at their concerts, they have some hand motions to go along with the words. When they sing, "I want to be like Daniel in the lion's den, waiting for God's love to save him", they put their hands up to their face, like cat whiskers, so their palms are facing towards them and fingertips are touching their cheeks. They put their hands up there when they save the word "Daniel".
Then when they say, "I wanna be, I wanna be", they pat their collarbone/chest area with both hands, patting along with the syllables of the words.
And finally when they say, "I want to be like Moses when he raised his hands", they put their hands up in the air on the word "Moses". And when they say, "And all the winds and seas obeyed him", they wave their hands back and forth.
Daniel by FFH When I need to find that holy place When I need to seek God's holy face When I need some help from the Lord I'm reminded of the ones that were here before And then I enter God's presence with a faithful heart Not running scared but simply set apart I want to be like Daniel in the lion's den Waiting for God's love to save him I wanna be, I wanna be I want to be like Moses when he raised his hands And all the winds and seas obeyed him I wanna be, I wanna be When I need to drink from that living cup When I need to fight but I give up When I need to feel God more and more I'm reminded of the ones who were here before Than I stand up to my feet and know that I'm set free From the chains that once captured me You are the one which I believe in You are the one who gives life to me and You are the one who gives me strength I need and I want you to see
I have no idea who this girl is at the beginning of this video, but the actual song starts around 1:30 minutes into the video.
I have become awful about updating over here. I thought once school ended, I'd have more time to do this, but that obviously has not been the case. So here I am to post a few more songs...hopefully if I have the time. Haha!
It's probably obvious by now that I love FFH and every single one of their songs. I can remember singing this particular song while I would dust my room many years ago. I would just leave this CD in my CD player and start off the CD every time I dusted. Since this is the first song on that CD, I always listened to this one while dusting and sometimes made it onto several of their other songs, depending on how long it took me to dust that particular time.
When I Praise by FFH Lookin' for love and I lost my way Another long night has turned to day Nobody likes to feel this way So I draw close to you It's what I'm supposed to do
Lookin' for love and I close my eyes I run to you with no disguise You hold me close and say "it's fine" You take me in your arms And you soothe this heart of mine
And I throw my hands up in the air Here's my heart 'cause I don't care- What they say about me, I gotta praise I throw my hands up in the air 'Cause I know that You will find me there Find me when I praise
Lookin' for love and I hide my face(Lookin' for love and I hide my face) What about the scars and disgrace(Should I hide my disgrace) But You meet me there in spite of my shame Your blood covers it all And You carry me away
(Chorus)
My heart is on my sleeve and I am on my knees And my hands are in the air, oh yeah And it's hard to believe that I am on my knees With my hands in the air, oh yeah And You come close beside me And You say You're here to guide me I don't ever have to be alone And Your love has led me home
Lookin' for love and I found my way(Lookin' for love and I found my way) I ran to You and I heard You say(I ran to You and I heard You say) Everything's gonna be OK I don't have to wait another day
(Chorus 2x)
Lookin' for love and I lost my way(Lookin' for love and I lost my way) Another long night has turned to day(Another long night has turned to day) Nobody likes to feel this way
I have heard this song tons of times, but I remember hearing this song at youth group one night, goodness knows how long ago, and the lyrics really touched me. So here it is...
Ocean Floor by Audio Adrenaline The mistakes I've made That caused pain I could have done without All my selfish thoughts All my pride The things I hide You have forgot about
They're all behind you They'll never find you They're on the ocean floor Your sins are forgotten They're on the bottom Of the ocean floor
My misdeeds All my greed All the things that haunt me now They're not a pretty sight to see But they're wiped away By a mighty wave A mighty wave, mighty wave
They're all behind you They'll never find you They're on the ocean floor Your sins are forgotten They're on the bottom Of the ocean floor
Take them away To return no more Take them away To the ocean floor
This is one of the songs that I have on my "Wedding Songs List". I know everybody and their brother uses this song, but I still love it and want to use it!
When God Made You by Natalie Grant and Newsong (Guys)
Its always been a mystery to me, How two hearts can come together, And love can last forever. But now that I have found you I believe, That a miracle has come when God sends the perfect one. So gone are all my questions about why, And i've never been so sure of anything in my life
~chorus~
Oh I wonder what God was thinking,when he created you. I wonder if He knew everything I would need, Because he made all my dreams come true. When God made you, He must have been thinking about me.
(Girls)
Ooo ooo,I promise that wherever you may go, wherever life may lead you, With all my heart I'll be there too. And from this moment on I want you to know, I'll let nothing come between us, and I will love the ones you love. (guy):So gone are all my questions about why (girl echoes):about why
Duet:Oh I wonder what God was thinking when he created you, I wonder if He knew everythin I would need, Because He made all my dreams come true. When God made you He must've been thinking about me.
Bridge
He made the sun He made the moon, To harmonize a perfect tune, One can't do without the other they just have to be together. And that is how I know its true, Your for me and i'm for you and my world Just cant be right without you in my life
Chorus
(guy) He must have heard every prayer I've been praying (girl echo) I've been praying (both)He must've knew everything I would need
When God made you, He must've been thinking about me
I need to hire a secretary for my life. Seriously, it's getting ridiculous how busy I am! Friday I cleaned Nana's house all day, Friday evening I baby-sat the girls, that night I got a last-minute call from a family from our church who needed a sitter for Saturday all day. I had never sat for them before, but I had to be there Saturday morning at 8 and it's a half hour drive to their house. I was there til 3. Monday I grocery shopped for Mom in the morning. Then we had Aunt Kay, Nana, and Boppa over for a cook-out. Tuesday I baby-sat Whitney and Trevor again (the family from church). Today I baby-sat them again. I got a call to watch Carly for June 15 yesterday. Tomorrow I am getting together with Christa. Friday I had to turn down a sitting job to watch Whit and Trev because we are getting together with one of Mom's friends (Paula). Next week I'm watching the twins and their brother Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday all day. Friday I have Whit and Trev again.
Oh, and next week is VBS, which Jen and I are leading a preschool group there. Tonight is our training for that. Also, I'm driving Alicia to the airport Tuesday evening in between baby-sitting and VBS. I'll literally go right from sitting, to the airport, and then to VBS. I scheduled my hair appointment for the wedding last night. I got my dress fitted last night as well. I scheduled a few more appointments I need. I'm still trying to clean my room. AHH!!!! See why I need a secretary??? I'm so excited about having the next 2 days off. Lol. Why did I ever panick about a summer job again? Summer jobs are not easy to find this summer in our town. Now I'm swamped with baby-sitting jobs. Right, that was just God showing me who is boss yet again. Thank you, Lord!
New Talent
I discovered a week or so ago how to get a drink from the water dispenser on the front of the fridge without using a glass. Lol. We have never had a fridge with one of those on it until we got our new appliances this spring. I was tired of using a big glass everytime I needed a quick drink, so I decided to try getting one without a glass. Mom told me to put a towel down on the floor first and have at it. So I did. And I mastered the art of it. Haha, yes, I am the entertainment for my family. They miss me when I'm not here to amuse them.
A First for Everything
Last night I had a first while I was using my nose spray. Now mind you, I have taken at least 4 squirts of nosespray every, single day of my life (except for right before my surgeries) since the 4th grade. Depending on the med I was on at that time, sometimes I had 8 squirts a day. When I'm sick, I can have up to 20+ squirts per day. And that is not counting all the saline spray I use. So now I don't even think about it when I'm using it. I just do it lickedy-split as I'm doing something else. Well, maybe I should focus a bit more on it from now on. Last night I was lost in thought as I subconsciously did my nosespray. I had done 3 squirts and was doing the last one, when I totally missed my nose and squirted it straight up my face! Either I didn't get much in my eye or the med doesn't hurt my eyes because they didn't sting at all. I did hurry up and splash my face with water, just to be safe. (And to get it off my face since my skin is super sensitive.) It was a bit of a shock, though, to suddenly be showering my face with nose spray! Haha! Wasn't this a fascinating topic of conversation?
And.... I should go wash the chlorine off now. I went swimming with Whitney today while Trevor napped. Not fun- weather was in the 70s, water was freezing, and it was windy. Woo!
Ever since the Dancing with the Stars season finale, I have had this song running through my head off and on. I keep trying to get it to leave...but it's not working. Lol.
Alone by Celine Dion I hear the ticking of the clock I'm lying here the room's pitch dark I wonder where you are tonight No answer on the telephone And the night goes by so very slow Oh I hope that it won't end though Alone
Till now I always got by on my own I never really cared until I met you And now it chills me to the bone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone you don't know how long i have wanted to touch your lips and hold you tight You don't know how long I have waited and I was going to tell you tonight But the secret is still my own and my love for you is still unknown Alone Till now I always got by on my own I never really cared until I met you And now it chills me to the bone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone How do I get you alone Alone, alone
Haha, yes, I am the entertainment for my family. They miss me when I'm not here to amuse them.
