Just over the past couple of weeks I have been getting into song writing. I like to have multiple ways of interpretation for my lyrics, for example, these two songs could be your average love song or they could be worship music. They were primarily written to be sung to God but I think making it so it could be a love song could be a way to outreach to nonbelievers through music. Since I doubt any nonbelievers would want to listen to christian or worship music. I wish I had some way to record some songs besides a digital camera so i'll be accepting donations for recording gear :) Song 1 is all done (except for a name haha) and song 2 is coming together quite nicely.
Song 1:
There is nothing I want
There is nothing I need
Other than your love
Other than you near
'Cause when I try to live
without You I fall apart
You alone are my only reason
To live and to breathe
And when I failed you
That day I left
The pain and sorrow
Washed over me
How many times with I miss the mark?
How many times will I fall short?
How many times will I wrong the right?
Song 2:
The war is won but the battle still rages
Lies of every kind are thrown at me
But still I fight with your unrelenting power
I will never give up, never back down
Through every season I will not lose sight of you
Such beauty cannot be forgotten
Though I struggle please don't leave me
This stumbling man will rise above
It is your love that fuels me through battle
My will to fight is for you alone
Anything between us will be destroyed
Nothing will keep us apart
To see your face I would climb mountains
For only a glimpse I would fight through hundreds
You alone give life meaning
Without you my life has no worth
