Butterfly Kisses
There's two things I know for sure
She was sent here from Heaven
And she's daddys little girl
As I drop to my knees by her bed at night
She talks to Jesus and I close my eyes
And I thank God for all of the joy in my life
Oh but most of all
For butterlfy kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk beside the pony daddy
It's my first ride
I know the cake looks funny daddy
But i sure tried
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
TO deseve a hug every mornin
And butterfly kisses at night
Sweet 16 today
She's lookin like her mama
A little more every day
One part woman
The other part girl
To perfume and mke up
From ribbons and curls
Trying her wongs out in a great big world
But I remember
Butterlfy kisses after bedtime prayer
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
You know how much I love you daddy
But if you don't mind
I'm only gonna kiss you on the check this time
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I muct have done something right
To deserve her love every mornin
And butterfly kisses at night
All the precious time
Like the wind the years go by
Precious Butterfly
Spread yuor wings and fly
She'll change her name today
She'll make a promise and I'll give her aways
Standing in the bride room just starin at her
She asked me what I'm thinkin
And I said I'm not sure
I just feel like I'm loosin my baby girl
And she leaned over
And gave me butterfly kisses with her mama there
Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair
Walk me down the isle daddy
It's just about time
Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?
Daddys don't cry
Oh with all that I've done wrong
I must have done something right
To deserve her love every mornin and butterfly kisses
I couldn't ask God for more than this is what love is
I know I've got to let her go but I'll always remember
Every hug in the mornin and butterly kisses

You Must Have Been an Angel
I was the lonely one inside
Seemed like my prayers had been denied
I'd come to the decision
to never find a love that's true
Down on my knees again, in prayer,
Oh lord, please send someone to care
My best imagination
could not have dreamed someone like you
You must have been an angel, I can tell
By the heavenly way my heart fell
Oh, it was spiritual, a miracle
That an angel
Would fall in love with me
You've got that heart of gold, I swear
You are the answer to my prayer
And so much heavenly power
to make a mortal dream come true
Oh you were heaven sent, I know
For even when lights are low
I can almost see, I see a halo
Girl I'm so in love with you
Girl, I'm so glad I found you
Gonna wrap my whole world around you
Oh, It's gonna be so heavenly
Just you and me.....

Man of His Word
In the final days of summer, 1944,
with just a preacher and a witness and a humble band of gold,
They set out to find the future, not a penny to their name.
Still with all the unknown danger, she knew her heart was safe,
cause..
He was a rock
He was the one that she ran to
And when he said the words "Forever"
She knew that it was true
He wasn't a saint
But he was saint enough for her
He was a man,
A man of his word.
In the final days of summer, 1964,
found a family undivided, divided on the war.
Turning son against his elder, debating wrong and right,
He was the image of his father, though they would not see eye to eye,
still...
He was a rock
He was the one the boy ran to
Cause' when he said the word "I Love You"
He knew that it was true
And even in the worst of storms
There was an anchor in his world
He was a man,
A man of his word.
Clutching a strong belief in the bible,
through all the sweetness in his life, and the bitterness of war,
He knew what God had made him for...
In the final days of summer, 1994,
surrounded by his family and the presence of the Lord.
He set out to find his future, the one he'd always known,
He didn't want to leave his family, but he knew deep in his soul,
The lord had called him home...
cause...
He was the rock
He was the one the man ran to
And when he said the words "forever"
He knew that it was true
He wasn't a saint
he is the one the saints bow to
Receiving a man,
A man of his word...
He was the one that I ran to
Cause when he says the word "forever"
I know his word is true
He isn't a saint
He is the one the saints bow to
Come to the man
The man of his word.

One Man Revival
No greater love, no lesser grace
No great distance than the one that I have made
You crave my heart and miss our quiet time alone
Have I become as hard as stone?
Chorus
I need a one-man revival
A renewing of my heart
To capture me before I stray too far
It's the one thing I cry for
And the only way I know
Is a one-man revival in my soul (heart)
I know I've turned away it seems
But You pursue me while I'm busy chasing dreams
My dreams aren't worth the sacrifice of my first love
What I should be dreaming of...
Repeat Chorus
I'm disappointed at how my perfect world should be
But if I'm gonna see a change (really gonna see a change)
There's got to be a change in me
Repeat Chorus

Mighty Love
You should know me by now.
I've always been straight with you.
I've always tried to sing about the truth the way I see it,
In a mixed up world where truth is
hard to find.
I ain't no spiritual superman.
Don't always give a shiny, bright example
of what a believer ought to be.
I ain't never parted the ocean, though I really think I could
if I had the faith of a mustard seed, like the Bible says I should.
I ain't never moved a mountain, I ain't never felt that need.
But the one thing God has tought me to see...
I can have faith
A mountain of hope
I can even speak with tongues of angels
Tell you everyting I know
But it doesn't mean a thing in this world
Without a mighty love
I can be strong
I can stand tall
I can point squarely at the mountain
And command that it be gone
But it doesn't mean a thing in this world
Without a mighty love
I ain't standin' no mount.
I'm not tryin' to preach to ya
and tell you that I've found all the easy answers.
when half the time I can't even
find my keys.
But I feel like a regular Billy Graham
when I start talkin' bout my Jesus,
and all that he's done for me.
Don't you know that I've received forgiveness through no
effort of my own.
I've been given so much mercy, so I'll be the last to throw a stone.
And I apologize, if you think that I'm coming on too strong.
But there's just one thing I want you to know...

Living Water
I feel your touch,
I can feel your heart
As I'm lying here alone in the dark
I hear your voice gently say "come to me”
I long for your love as the earth longs for the rainfall
I’m weary Lord I’ve wondered this dessert too long
CHORUS
So come Living Water flow through me like a river
My heart’s been thirsting so long
Flood through my soul and pour out your mercy
Come Living Water fill me
Lord so many times you’ve called my name
And I’ve turned my face the other way
Yet before I even saw the womb you love me
How can I be so blind when I alone have created my darkness
Forgive me Lord and wash me clean again

It Is Well With My Soul
Oh’ my life is filled with white’hot anxiety’
Though I think I wear it very well’
I still worry bout’ what people might think of me
if they ever saw me past my outer shell.
Believe me’ I know how to worry.
I’ve chewed my fingernails to the bone.
Oh’ I’ve got my share of problems
Still it is well with my soul
Sometimes I wrestle with my conscience
Still it is well with my soul
Lord’ I think about all that you’ve
done for me.
Lord’ I think about it all the time.
But sometimes a ghost from the past starts
really haunting me’
stickin’ those awful feelings in my mind.
I won’t let it get to me’ no.
I ain’t walkin’ down that old’ dark road.
Oh’ I’ve got my share of problems
Still it is well with my soul
Don’t always know just how to solve them
Still it is well with my soul
Since I’ve been given true forgiveness
And it is well with my soul
I’ll be about my father’s business
And it is well with my soul
In my soul
I can see clearly
In my soul
Through the darkness surrounding me
Once you’ve tasted and seen
Then you’ll know what I mean
There ain’t nothin’ gonna keep me down’
so...get up...
Oh’ I’ve got my share of problems
Still it is well with my soul
Don’t always know just how to solve them
Still it is well with my soul
Sometimes I wrestle with my conscience
Still it is well with my soul
Still I know that I’ve got true forgiveness
And it is well with my soul
