a reason to sing

My friend, you know how this all ends.
You know where you're going.
You just don't know how you'll get there.
So say a prayer and hold on.
Cause there's good for those who love God.
But life is not a snapshot.
It might take a little time,
but you'll see the bigger picture.

i never told you
what i should have said
no, i never told you
i just held it in

Would you dare, would you dare to believe
That you still have a reason to sing?
Cause the pain that you've been feeling,
It cant compare to the joy that's coming.

i miss everything about You


So hold on, you gotta wait for the light.

there's freedom waiting in the sound:

"we're here now"

....the Light meets the dark

half of my heart

I was born in the arms of imaginary friends
"Free" to roam, made a home out of everywhere I've been
Then You come crashing in, like the realest thing
Trying my best to understand all that Your love can bring



Oh, half of my heart's got a grip on The Situation
Half of my heart.
takes.
time.


Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That I can't keep loving You
can't keep loving You
Oh, with half of my heart

I was made. to believe.
I'd never love somebody else
Made a plan--stay the man who can only love himself
Lonely was the song I sang,
...until the day You came
Showing me another way
and all that my love can bring


Oh, half of my heart's got a grip on "the situation"
Half of my heart takes time
Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell You
That I can't keep loving you--can't keep loving you
Oh, with half of my heart
With half of my heart



Your faith is strong



But I can only
fall.
short for so long



Down the road, later on
You will hate that I never gave more to you
Than half of my heart


But I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you
I can't stop loving you

I can't stop loving You
With half of my . . .

Half of my heart
Oh, half of my heart

Half of my heart's got a real good imagination
Half of my heart's got You


Half of my heart's got a right mind to tell you
That half of my heart won't do



Half of my heart is a shotgun wedding
to a bride with a paper ring
And half of my heart is the part of



a man who's never truly loved anything



Half of my heart, oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart, oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart, oh, half of my heart
Half of my heart . . .

"nae. ma-eum. ee."


sometimes i feel like
i only love God
with half

of what i should be

i keep falling short
of understanding

what it means
to
love
anything
at all.



"...ah-pha."
