tonight

not avoiding the other posts on south africa!!!! they will come soon!
just finally posting a really rough recording of a song from this summer.

pardon the terrible audio quality...
& as for the waves in the background -
just a reminder of where i was when i wrote it.
the ocean will always be a place that brings me to my knees!

posting the lyrics again as i changed a few words!



another long night
i sit here & cry
when will i speak the words i feel deep inside
lost & confused
you're slightly amused
moved on like everything we were was alright
you're alright
alright

but tonight
put away all your plans
& tonight
just rest in my presence
tonight
open your heart & be washed by the waters of my love
my love

i don't have words
i don't have a song
all i have's this feelin that i don't belong
push away the world
& run into Your arms
lay my head upon Your chest & listen to Your heart
to Your heart
Your heart
to Your heart
and you said

tonight
put away all your plans
& tonight
just rest in My presence
tonight
open your heart
& be washed by the waters of My Love
tonight

i know you're hurting
i know you've failed
forgiven, forgotten
My Love will prevail
I know you're trying
to earn back My Love
but the blood of My Son
was more than Enough

i know you're hurting
i know you've failed
forgiven, forgotten
My Love will prevail
child, just stop trying
to earn back My Love
cause the blood of My Son
was more than Enough

so tonight
put away all your plans
& tonight
just rest in My presence
tonight
just open your heart
& be washed by the waters of My Love

i don't have words
i don't have a song
all i have's this feelin
i'm where i belong
