lyrics.

Alright, I was listening to some random songs on iTunes tonight... and wanted to share this song... I got it from a friend quite awhile ago but haven't really listened to it... but this goes out to all my precious single friends. *smile*

He wasn't looking for a pretty face
She wasn't searching for the latest style
He didn’t want someone who walked straight off the tv
She needed someone with an interior smile

She wasn't looking for a cuddle in the back seat
He wasn't looking for a five minute thrill
She wasn't thinking of tomorrow or of next week
This vacancy he meant to permanently fill

Chorus
I need an everlasting love
I need a friend and a lover divine
An everlasting precious love
Wait for it, wait for it, give it some time

Back in the world of disposable emotion
In the climate of temporary dreams
He wasn't looking for a notch on his bedpost
A love to push, pull and burst at the seams

Is this love worth waiting for
Something special, something pure

Is this love worth waiting for
Bitterness will die for sure
Something special, something pure
Is this love worth waiting for

And I just have to share... I turned on my Point of Grace Christmas cd, and it is just music to my ears. Familiarity. Makes me think of last Christmas and all my Christmases with Melis - just listening to music - with Christmas lights in our dorm room... Omigosh. It almost brings tears to my eyes. I love when familiarity comes in and there is a sense of peace. Despite all the changes in my life there is something so deep and constant. *turns the dimmer down* It's not the same as little twinkly Christmas lights. I love remembering.

When love came down at Christmas time... So close your eyes and share the dream, let everyone on earth believe - A child was born a star shone bright when love came down at Christmas time.

Oh I can't WAIT for Christmas.

Funny how a few encouraging lyrics and just the right music can bring such peace to your heart.

Hey, I want to share some verses with you.

5 This is what the LORD says:
"Cursed is the one who trusts in man,
who depends on flesh for his strength
and whose heart turns away from the LORD .
6 He will be like a bush in the wastelands;
he will not see prosperity when it comes.
He will dwell in the parched places of the desert,
in a salt land where no one lives.

7 "But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD ,
whose confidence is in him.
8 He will be like a tree planted by the water
that sends out its roots by the stream.
It does not fear when heat comes;
its leaves are always green.
It has no worries in a year of drought
and never fails to bear fruit."

O Lord, help me believe. I want to bear much fruit. I want to be green.
