Puzzle

I feel like a puzzle thats missing a piece.

Lord, please help me become complete.

Some people come into our lives to represent

stepping stones that lead us to where we belong.

I put a smile on my face and I play the part but

what everyone doesnt

know is that Im falling apart.

Through all the hurt and the pain,

His love for us remains.

When burdens are heavy and times are tough,

go to Him and His love will be enough.

Whether your hearts are troubled and your mind is

scattered, know that He is there

and thats all that matters.

Im trying not to wear my feelings on my sleeve.

Our connection is always there.

I know that you truly care.

Guard

My feelings for you are so strong.

With you is where I belong.

My guard is down.

I have got to have you around.You have got my heart.

Please dont ever rip it apart.

Fast

Everything happened so fast.

They didnt know how long he would last.

There were angels among them.

They were trying to save him.

The calls came flooding in.

Everyone was hoping that

this wasnt the end!

Spark

I want to put a spark in your heart.

I want you to see fireworks

right from the start.

I want to get lost in your eyes.

Oh how they sparkle, like stars in the sky.Its hard to keep quite

when this feels so right.

Are we just living a fantasy?

Or can this really be?

Judgment

Im starting to question myself.

I know its not going to help.

My feelings are real.

But do I know what I really feel?

Im in love and Im scared.

I just hope my judgment doesnt become impaired.

Im letting my guard down.

I want you to stick around.

You make my life whole again.

I hope this journey never ends.

Making

I want a brand new start.

I dont want to just play the part.

I want to feel whole again.

I want my heart to mend.

I can do all things through Christ.

I have to start living right.Sometimes we slip and we fall.

But with you in our hearts we have it all.

You know if we are living right or wrong.

You know where we belong.

No matter how much your heart is breaking,

there is beauty in the making.

With heavy hearts day after day.

All we can do is pray.
