Take me to the King - Tamela Mann

This song ended 2013 for me and ushered me into the new year, so I decided to post the lyrics here. I hope it inspires you too!

"Take Me To The King"



[Chorus:]
Take me to the King
I don't have much to bring
My heart is torn in pieces
It's my offering
Take me to the King

[Verse 1:]
Truth is I'm tired
Options are few
I'm trying to pray
But where are you?

The one who was, who is and who is to come



How can you not believe? How can you look at the grey sky splattered with a million stars at night and not understand?
The more I study, the more I realize that Jesus could have been just another nice guy with good intentions, The more I observe the patterns of this world, the more I understand you and your views about the non-existence of God. I understand you Thomas I really do.
Thomas, I look at the sky when the sun sets and I see the birds fly back home, a dozen or more of them fly back home in a perfect triangle formation. I wonder about the choreographer that gave them that perfect formation. Have you ever

Amanda took in the sight before her, not that it was a new one but it was a respite from the white and different shades of blue that characterized the pediatric ward and the smell of drugs she had so gotten used to the past few years. As she stared out the window, she still remembered with surprising accuracy the events that led her to this point.
It was four years ago, and she had a picture perfect life, loving husband and a healthy four year old son, they had been trying for another baby as soon as Poju her son had clocked two, all to no avail.

In the company of me


In the company of me, iThink, iGrow, iBuild.
I re-build the broken walls, I weld the shattered pieces of Armour, I mend the torn garments, I treat the broken bones and clean up the wounds from the battle field.
In the company of me, I re-strategize because times and seasons change, paradigms shift, and decisions have to be made at every point in time...

The voice on the inside



They say: time and tide waits for no man,
They also say; slow and steady wins the race
The say: out of sight is out of mind
They also say: distance makes the heart fonder
They say: cut your coat according to your size,
They also say: think outside the box

Friends



Here's to those friends that have stayed over the years, I love you all!

We all have that one friend..
That eats a lot and I mean a whole lot but still remains skinny
We all have that one friend,
That blabs, always talks off point and still laughs at his/her own jokes.
We all have that one friend,
That doesn’t know how to match colours and patterns even though they have nice clothes.
We all have that one friend,
That always has emotional drama no matter how much he/she avoids it

Just trying my hands at goofy poetry! Lol


Philippe, Philippe
I see the stars in the sky
And they remind me of you
They remind me of the sparkles in your eyes when you smile,
The starry night makes them shine brighter
Since you left for Philista
I await your return
Every time I listen to Jeux d’eau
