Child of mine

By Helen Yousaf   

 

Child of mine be mine

My child be all that I purposed for you to be

My child theres so much more than you could ever think or see

My child your potential is greater than you know

My child ill take you places you never dreamed you'd go

So dont lean on your own understanding

And in all things acknowledge me

And as you trust in me with all of your heart

I will make straight your path

 

CHORUS:  Child of mine be mine

                   Child of mine be mine

                   I�ve loved you since the beginning of time so child

                   Be mine, be mine, be mine

 

My child, you were born for such a time as this

My child there is a reason, a plan for which you exist

My child I knew you before you were conceived

My child if you think I dont care then you have been deceived

Dont be dismayed when I discipline you

Its only what a loving father would do

Now if you ask me Ill forgive you, every single thing

Just open up your heart (ooh) and ask me to come in.

 

CHORUS:   Child of mine be mine (ooh ooh)

                   Child of mine be mine (ooh ooh)

                   Ive loved you since the beginning of time so child

                   Be mine, be mine, be mine

 

BRIDGE:    Never meant for you to run, never meant for you hide

                   Never meant for you to live (ooh)without me in your life

                   But your choice has to be yours and your mind must be your own

                   So until you ask me in your heart your heart cant be my home

 

CHORUS

 

INSTRUMENTAL

 

I know every hair on your precious head

I know everything youve done and every word you ever said

I know the number of your days

Your strengths, your weaknesses, your ways

One day youll know how much I love you

Cause Ill tell you face to face

 

CHORUS:   Child of mine be mine (ooh)

                   Child of mine be mine (ooh)

                   Ive loved you since the beginning of time so child

                   Be mine, be mine, be mine

                   Ive loved you since the beginning of time

                   so child, be mine, be mine, be mine

 

Come to me

Cant go back cant go on living life with no song

Dont know which way is right and which is wrong

The joy has simply gone

Living life with no passion, no vision no zeal

My faith just dont seem real

What went wrong?

 

Maybe quiet times were forgot,

the praying didnt happen quite so much

No time for spending with the Lord

Maybe sin has crept in through the gap in the door

Cant fight the fight no more, youre down on the floor

 

CHORUS:   Come to me all you who are weary

                   My burdens light and my yoke is easy

 

Repetitive sin, spirit-quenching things,

Robbing your peace you need a release

Its time to bring it to the Lord

Dont run away deal with it today

Hes faithful and just to forgive its His way

Its time to bring it to the Lord

 

Why turn away when you could have life today

You tasted it once when you chose the right way

Its time to bring it to the Lord

Why settle for this when you could have more

Youre under grace, youre not under the law

Its all your soul is searching for

 

CHORUS:   Come to me all you who are weary

                   My burdens light and my yoke is easy

                   Come to me all you who are weary

                   My burdens light and my yoke is easy

 

Without love

What ones heart is being fed manifests in what is done and said

So if youre feasting on the dirt dont be surprised to learn

What you have to give is of little worth

And when a soul walks through that door

Can it be that he can take no more

No he aint searching for no chi, no base theology

But a love that can be found in you and me

 

CHORUS      

                   If I speak with tongues of men and of angels but have no love

                   I have nothing, nothing

                   If I speak words of prophesy, unravelling all mysteries but no love

                   I have nothing, nothing

                   If I give all I have give my life to the poor

                   what ever I do in Gods name without love

                   Its nothing, nothing

                    If I give all I have give my life to the poor

                   what ever I do in Gods name without love

                   Its nothing, nothing

  

Love is patient love is kind

Always trusts and hopes despite mankind

Rejoicing in the truth, its not proud its never rude

Without love wont you tell me what would we do?

 

He Meets You Where You Are

Maybe theres ties you feel like giving up

Maybe theres times you feel let down

Maybe theres times you feel like throwing in the towel

But every time you run away or put your head into the sand

You bump into your heart and remember how Gods hand has met your every need

 

Maybe at times you dont feel like lifting up his name

You feel out of love and insecure

And it takes everything within to give that sacrifice of praise

But as you open up your mouth and let the words come out

Hell meet your hardened heart and turn it all about and meet your every need

 

CHORUS       Oh He meets you where you are

                   Yes He meets you where you are

                   Oh my God meets you where, He meets you where you are

        Oh He meets you where you are

                   Yes He meets you where you are

                   Oh my God meets you where, He meets you where you are

 

Thank God His grace is not dependant on our part

His arm is not too short to save

And there is nothing you could ever say or do

That could stop Him from loving you

Hes speaking to you, calling for you, shouting to you, screaming at you

Wanting you to know that its only through Him

Youll meet your every need

 

CHORUS    Oh He meets you where you are

                   Yes He meets you where you are

                   Oh my God meets you where, He meets you where you are

                   Oh He meets you where you are

                   Yes He meets you where you are

                   Oh my God meets you where, He meets you where you are

Upside Down Kingdom

Its an upside down Kingdom

A topsy turvy life

When you die to yourself but you live in Christ

Turn it around around around

Turn it around

 

Its a strange kind of logic

Where the first shall be last

When God calls you free indeed

Despite the shackles of the past

 

Oooh

Turn it around around around

 

Turn it around

 

CHORUS    Every morning I wakeup and pray

                   I say Lord what would you have me do today?

                   In this upside down kingdom

                   This topsy turvy extraordinary life

                   In this upside down kingdom (ooh)

                   This topsy turvy extraordinary life

 

Its a wonder of wonders

When the blind man can see

When slaves of the living God

Are wonderfully free (wonderfully free)

Turn it around around around

Turn it around

 

Whats foolish to man

Is wisdom indeed

To stand and be counted

Sometimes means to conceed

Turn it around around around

Turn it around

 

CHORUS       Ooh            

Every morning I wakeup and pray

                   I say Lord what would you have me do today?

                   In this upside down kingdom

                   This topsy turvy extraordinary life

                   In this upside down kingdom

                   This topsy turvy extraordinary life
