A Great Country Song - sorry I'm in a song mood

Jake Owen - Don't Think I Can't Love You

Well, I learned the hard way real early in life
That money sure don't grow on a tree
And there's a few things that a dollar can't buy
The best things in life, they come free

Chorus:
So, girl, I can't buy you a big diamond ring
No house on a hill full of life's finer things
And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do
Oh, but baby, don't think I can't love you

And when I get home after workin' all day
I'm beat down, girl I'm dead on my feet
But as tired as I am, if you wanna play
Well, playin' sounds real good to me


Chorus:
'Cause girl, I can't buy you a big diamond ring
No house on a hill full of life's finer things
And I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do
Oh, but baby, don't think I can't love you

Oh girl, I can't buy you a big diamond ring
No house on a hill full of life's finer things
But I'll tell you right now there's a whole lot that I just can't do
Oh, but baby, baby, oh baby, don't think I can't love you

Amazing Song I Heard the Other Day

Desert Song Tells of God's Great Love and Provision in our Lives

This is my prayer in the desert
And all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides
Verse 2:
And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved
Of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flames
Chorus:
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
Verse 3:
And this is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand
Bridge:
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
Verse 4:
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've recieved I will sow

One of These Days - original Poem

One of These Days

One of these days
I'm gonna get over
the way you made me feel
one of these days
I'm gonna stop thinking
about our ordeal
one of these days
I'm gonna fly
and soar with my broken wing

But for now
I'm gonna stand here
Taller, and stronger, and smarter
and better off without you
But for now
I'll only break down
on the inside, where you can't see me
Cause I'm better off without you

One of these days
I'm gonna burn
everything you ever gave me
one of these days
I'm gonna forget
everything you said to me
one of these days
I'm gonna laugh
every time I hear your name

But for now
I'm gonna stand here
Tall, and stronger, and smarter
and better off without you
But for now
I'll only break down
on the inside, where you can't see me
Cause I'm better off without you

One of these days
I'm gonna forget
your name, your laugh
one of these days
I'm gonna look back
and smile at the fool you are
one of these days
I'm gonna forget
everything we ever had

But for now
I'm gonna stand here
Taller, and stronger and smarter
and better off without you
but for now
I'll only break down
on the inside, where you can't see me
Cause I'm better off without you

Merry Christmas

Twas the month before Christmas

When all through our land,

Not a Christian was praying
...
Nor taking a stand.

See the PC Police had taken away

The reason for Christmas - no one could say.

The children were told by their schools not to sing

About Shepherds and Wise Men and Angels and things.

It might hurt people's feelings, the teachers would say

December 25th is just a ' Holiday '.

Yet the shoppers were ready with cash, checks and credit

Pushing folks down to the floor just to get it!

CDs from Madonna, an X BOX, an I-Pod

Something was changing, something quite odd!

Retailers promoted Ramadan and Kwanzaa

In hopes to sell books by Franken & Fonda.

As Targets were hanging their trees upside down

At Lowe's the word Christmas - was no where to be found.

At K-Mart and Staples and Penny's and Sears

You won't hear the word Christmas; it won't touch your ears.

Inclusive, sensitive, Di-ver-si-ty

Are words that were used to intimidate me.

Now Daschle, Now Darden, Now Sharpton, Wolf Blitzen

On Boxer, on Rather, on Kerry, on Clinton !

At the top of the Senate, there arose such a clatter

To eliminate Jesus, in all public matter.

And we spoke not a word, as they took away our faith

Forbidden to speak of salvation and grace

The true Gift of Christmas was exchanged and discarded

The reason for the season, stopped before it started.

So as you celebrate 'Winter Break' under your 'Dream Tree'

Sipping your Starbucks, listen to me.

Choose your words carefully, choose what you say

Shout MERRY CHRISTMAS ,

not Happy Holiday !

Please, all Christians join together and

wish everyone you meet

MERRY CHRISTMAS

Christ is The Reason' for the Christ-mas Season!
