Rebirth 06:40
As the flowers start to bloom I understand the truth That it's all because of You It's all because of You

Thaw 05:19
I've been walking down this empty street Wondering about how and when we'll meet And hoping that you're finally happy I've been fighting the devil all week He's making me promises that he just can't keep And I'm still trying to keep myself clean The sunshine never felt as good as it does right now It seems to tell the voices in my head To settle down, settle down I find solace in the solitude Of getting outside, getting out of my room My thoughts bounce off the walls and fear drenches my roots I want to smile again and feel my petals bloom I feel so alive And I just can't explain it I feel so alive I feel the sun warm my blood And these negative thoughts seem to thaw I finally feel like I can do anything Despite the weather, birds and beasts My roots will grow deep in what I believe You're the sunshine that always accompanies me Yeah, I can do anything I can do anything I can do anything Despite the weather, birds and beasts My roots will grow deep in what I believe You're the sunshine that always accompanies me Yeah, I can do anything I feel so alive I feel so alive And I just can't explain it I feel so alive I feel the sun warm my blood And these negative thoughts seem to thaw

Affixed to my chest Coral colored rose and babys breath Anxious to see you In your honest white dress I couldn’t stop smiling I knew all the eyes were also on me To see my reaction But we’ve wanted this union since we were 15 Made a house a home finally Pizza on the floor as we’re painting Then Sawyer and Ainslee Blessings on blessings upon blessings But you deserve two more babies' breaths Resting on your chest You did nothing wrong remember that You did nothing wrong remember that But you deserve two more babies' breaths Resting on your chest You did nothing wrong remember that Let’s just pray for peace in the absence "My soul is deprived of peace, 
 I have forgotten what happiness is;  I tell Myself my future is lost, 
 All that I hoped for from the Lord. But I will call this to mind, 
as my reason to have hope: 
 The favors of the Lord are not exhausted, 
 His mercies are not spent;  
They are renewed each morning,  So great is his faithfulness. 
 My portion is the Lord, says my soul; 
 Therefore I will hope in him."  - Lamentations 3: 17-18, 21-24 I’d give my one and last breath If it meant that you would be happy I'd do whatever it takes and nothing less I’d give whatever you need of me I’d give my one and last breath If it could make you feel some semblance Of wholeness, healed, completed Be blessed and know that you are blameless

Honeysuckle 03:37
I don't want to move anymore I want to settle down in a house with a backyard Where the honeysuckle grows Where the honeysuckle grows That sweet scent in the air Inherent sunshine floating Ebb and flow God take me there LORD lay me down in green pastures Where quiet streams bubble up with laughter All of creation rejoicing together The honeysuckle leads but Your the one I'm after I've been thinking of angels and empty tombs and gardens I've been thinking of new life and rebirth and heaven LORD take my heart of stone and make it into flesh again Baptize me in the light of Your face and resurrection

Lion's Tooth 06:45
Make a wish Scatter seeds Dirty hands Dirty feet Dig the ground Search for worms Flipping rocks and Shovel turns Making flowers Out of weeds Gifts for Mom Beautiful things Sunny days Warmer Spring Let’s go explore Just you and me Learn to walk Stumble forth I’ll catch your hands If you fall short Hear the birds Sing their song Let’s join in Let’s sing along Forts and castles Of dirt and sand Stick and leaf Construction plans Chrysalis Emerging Triumphant Spread your wings Thank God that you came into my life
