Pre Chorus:
I have so many questions about what heaven will be like
So many answers lay with in your word and I long to catch a glimpse
Heaven is my eternal place and I rest in the fact you know everything about it
Are there really streets paved with gold and will I able to walk on them

Chorus:
Will I see my king and fall face down to worship Him
Heaven is not like this earth at all I want to know what paradise is like
I long to worship Him in all his righteousness, to see Him in all his greatness
I want to pray and talk to Him and hear His name glorified

Verse 1:
Will I be able to ask a question like why did Jesus love a sinner like me
And why did He choose me and give me the privilege to know Him and praise him
Heaven is so mysterious and yet so many times people have the wrong view
I am asking to make my mind renewed about the Heaven you describe to me

Verse 2:
Will I stand up and sing or will I fall before the lamb
To meet with the one I gave my life to the one the great I AM
I cannot imagine what it will be like because I have lived with sin all my life
In heaven will it be like Eden or will it be better than the garden

Written after my hard drive crashed

Pre Chorus:
Can I feel the waves of life
My emotions are flooding my mind I feel small and at times crushed
No taller than a pop can on the road

Chorus:
I know it is when my life crashes
Those are the times I come running
I see you through the pain
You have lifted me from the ashes

Verse 1:
My life becomes cluttered with worldly things
I feel like everything was lost
Then I realize all I have is you to sustain me
When I am crashing you are my life

Verse 2:
I have everything when I let go of myself
I give you my all please reprogram my priorities
Line them up with your plan and will for my life
Remove everything within me that doesn’t bring you honor

Prechorus: As a child has faith to move mountains
Believing there is something greater
There must be something bigger than themselves
I have let the misperceptions, and the misinterpretations, get in the way

Chorus: Child like faith is what I long for,
Child like faith is what I want,
how I remember the times, when nothing else mattered
Accepting people for who they are, without passing on judgement to them
Accepting no for an answer, and being satisfied with life

Verse 1: Teach me Lord to ask questions, when I don’t know the answer
An opinion that withstands the cliche’s of this world
Without being afraid of what other people will think of me
The faith that lies behind this calloused heart of mine

Verse 2: The child like tendencies, that once were inside me have seemed to disappear
The questions I am afraid to ask, that children would ask because they don’t know the answer
The answers that you give me, should be ok with me, even if I don’t understand the reason
Questions that I have searching for the answers, finding the deeper treasures buried in your word

Inpsired by Jason Patchett “The Wonder” off the album “Are you ready to go?”

I am trying to grasp the concept You’ve given me a part
In your plan for this dying world
You are calling me to live set apart from the rules of society
May I be constantly sharing your heart for the lost
No more livin’ a life that is secluded but teach me to remain
all inclusive when I share your message of salvation may you
Ignite my passion that I may spread that I may spread your words to all the nations
I am so thankful you’ve given me a part in your plan for reaching the lost for you
Apart from you I am nothing I am looking for you in all the wrong
places, then I look around and I see all the lost faces of those
who’ve been deceived. You have shown me your plan for this
lost world an the biggest obstacle I face is thinkin’ I’m good
On my own apart from your love you’ve shown. Teach me apart
from you I remain dust but if I remain true to you
You will reveal to me where I have a part in your infinite
plan. A part in your plan is so amazing to me I can’t see the
future or where I’ll end up but my prayer today is that you’d
make me aware that in the darkness you provide light,
Teach me how much you love me, teach me the way I
was meant to live free, teach me to live sacrificially, Teach me
to think outside the box I so many times to conceal you in
You are far too big for us to contain for you are my God with
many dimensions You see all You know all You aren’t surprised
with man’s new inventions pleasing you should be our main intention
