Gospel Songs

 

Song One

Feet In Shackles And Slavery

 

God sometimes this world feels like a prison

Feet in shackles and like slavery

Hands tied and tears you cannot hide

Time you cannot turn back

God love lost and wounds that will not heal

And blood that bleeds and you have become numb to the pain

God chains of bondage like a noose

Around my throat making it hard to breathe

Like a rope hanging from a tree

And your listless body that no longer weeps

God tears that roll down my eyes it’s like life is in a quagmire

And it  feels like long before I came on this earth

This story had already been written for me

Like a death sentence you were born with

That you just cannot escape

The noise is deafening and a shiver runs down my spine

God the angst that I feel so deep within my soul

This inner turmoil within me screaming in agony

Dread keeping me awake at nights

And as I looked in the mirror

I could see the disquiet etched on my face

That I feel at this treachery and betrayal

And once again I woke up filled with trepidation

Cold sweat breaking on my forehead

And my palms all clammy breaking in sweat

No matter how hard I try or where I run away

Once again it feels like this path had been paved for me

Long before I took my first breath in this inhuman race

Reminding me how cruel this world can sometimes be with no escape

Then I close my eyes once again and death feels like a beautiful escape

Then in the distant I hear the church bell ringing and I realize

That it is not always about your religion but about other people’s religion as well

When you are bleeding and this life makes absolutely no sense

And you are at the crossroads of your life and all lost in confusion

God rhen you remind me that when one door closes another opens

God wanted us to smile and that is why we breathe and that is the reason

 

Somg Two

God Storms That Came

 

 

God storms that came and my life it changed

This world that feels like one abandoned place

People you had embraced with open arms as love not to be replaced

Nothing but weak bonds that broke with slightest change

Wounds that won’t heal and scars that still remain

God everything may change

God this world may change

Everyone around me may no longer be the same

But one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

 

God everything may change

God this world may change

God everyone around me may no longer be the same

God one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

God everything may change

God this world may change

God everyone around me may no longer be the same

God one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

Song Three

God When I Am Feeling Abandoned

 

God whenever life leaves me lost, confused or in shame

Trying to make sense of this world that feels like a meaningless place

Of shattered dreams, broken lives and endless pain

Eyes that weep and heart that cries out in vain

Only guarantees you have is the guarantee that things change

God everything may change

God this world may change

Everyone around me may no longer be the same

But one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

 

God everything may change

God this world may change

God everyone around me may no longer be the same

God one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

Song Four

God Your Voice Is Amazing Grace

 

 

God everything may change

God this world may change

Everyone around me may no longer be the same

But one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

God everything may change

God this world may change

Everyone around me may no longer be the same

But one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

 

God when everything feels lost and every path a dead end lane

I close my eyes and say a silent prayer and say your name

Then you speak to me and I once again picture your face

In the loneliness of my heart your voice sounds like amazing grace

Once again with joy in my heart I sing your praise

God everything may change

God this world may change

Everyone around me may no longer be the same

But one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

 

God everything may change

God this world may change

God everyone around me may no longer be the same

God one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

God everything may change

God this world may change

God everyone around me may no longer be the same

God one thing will always stay the same

God in my heart is your only place

 

Song Five

God It Is You I Seek

 

Lord you are the one I always look up to no matter how confusing things appear

 

Lord you are the one I always come to when life makes no sense at all and I persevere

 

Lord you the one who always comforts me even when my world falls apart and everything is unclear

 

Lord you are the one that I always seek when I am hurting and I am in despair

 

Lord you are the one I will always need until my dying breath and it’s you I revere

 

Song Six

When Life Feels Meaningless

 

When life feels meaningless

And another day gone by

And I feel like I am losing my religion

And no shoulder to lean on or cry

Just another person

Who’s lost in the crowd

As life passes me by

It’s then I pick up the pieces

And take on something new

With a new paintbrush

To paint the canvas

Which until yesterday was a little too blue

With new shades and new hues

Making sure I always keep my faith

And stay close to my roots

To give my life new meaning

And a meaningful view

 

Song Seven

God When I Am Feeling The Blues

 

When life feels hopeless

And everything lost

Every ties of your life

Feels like it was a serious knot

Heavy price you paid for love

And at what cost

It’s then I sit on my porch

And listen to my favorite music

And reflect on the march

Sounds from the past

No longer playing a trick

And my head feels clearer

And feelings resolved

About my ordeal

My wounds heal

And I pick up the pieces

And move forward

With new zeal

And my spirits soar

And then once again

Get back into life with a roar

 

Song Eight

When This World Feels Like A Lonely Place

 

When I am feeling lonely

And all lost and sad

Then I look at the deep blue sea

In front of me

And where it meets the deep blue skies

And the lines blur

And my eyes wells up with tears

Is it all my imagination

That life sometimes feels so hopeless

That I just want to cry

It’s then I go to my favorite spot

That I always go to

When I am feeling sad

Once again I look at the deep blue sea

In front of me

And then I don’t feel so bad

 

When life feels frustrating

And everything seems wrong

All laws of physics

Seems to be murphy’s law

Every path I take

Turns out to be a dead end instead

To a journey unknown

I path I still had to tread

And I am at the crossroads of my life

And I don’t know which way to go

For my bruised soul to survive

It’s then I go on a long drive

To my favorite city

Where everything about it

Is breathtaking beauty

I take a deep breath

And for a moment I lose myself

In God’s awsome creation iin front of me

And I think to myself

The person who created this

Must have something good planned for me

 

Song Nine

God If You Are Listening

 

God if you are listening

Please be listening to this sincere prayer

God if you are listening

This is from my lips to your ears

God if you are listening

To you my soul I bare

God if you are listening

Please always be there

God if you are listening

Please say to me that you care

God if you are listening

Please never leave me ever

God if you are listening

Please always love me and keep me close to your heart forever

God if you are listening

Always help me feel safe and tell me there’s nothing to fear

God if you are listening

Please never ever abandon me and always stay close to me and near

God if you are listening

I hope you will always answer my prayers

 

Song Ten

I Believe

 

I believe in love

I believe in miracles

I believe in God

And everything beautiful

 

I believe in heaven

I believe in heaven on earth

I believe in random acts of kindness

And strangers who are meant for each other

 

I believe in white Christmas

I believe that God listens to our prayers  

I believe that when we choose to believe

Good things will happen and we will persevere

 

I believe every new day is about new beginnings

I believe happiness comes when we have faith and it’s healing

I believe life is about hope and new reasons

I believe life is about new promises it brings with it every new season

 

I believe every cloud has a silver lining

I believe in raindrops from the skies are falling

I believe in sun rising every morning

I believe in a beautiful smile making this world so so amazing
