January 2010 feels like at the edge of the water...
Have you ever been haunted
The way I've been by you?
And have you ever felt
The measure of the days
That I've spent waiting
Pining for you?
I can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel Your breath for the wind
I don't want to step from these shadows
Till You're comin' back again
I've dammed these emotions
To keep my lanterns lit
Shaken by this longing
Coursing through my veins
In my mind, I can't make sense of it
Can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel Your breath for the wind
I get so used to these shadows
Are You comin' back again?
Do we give up the search and turn out the lights?
And give up this Holy Ghost that rattles through the night?
Can't see the sun for the daylight
I can't feel Your breath for the wind
I don't want to step from these shadows
Till You come back again
Can't see the sun for the daylight
Can't feel Your breath for the wind
I get so used to these shadows
Will You chase away these shadows
When You come back again?
When You come back...again

Keep me safe, O God, for in you I take refuge. I said to the LORD, "You are my Lord; apart from you I have no good thing."...LORD, you have assigned me my portion and my cup; you have made my lot secure. The boundary lines have fallen for me in pleasant places; surely I have a delightful inheritance. I will praise the LORD, who counsels me; even at night my heart instructs me. I have set the LORD always before me. Because he is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad and my tongue rejoices; my body also will rest secure, because you will not abandon me to the grave, nor will you let your Holy One see decay. You have made known to me the path of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence, with eternal pleasures at your right hand. Psalm 16:1-2; 5-11

Your in my heart n prayers!
Thanks for keeping yourself updated. Yea, the days when we were all still youths, it great! I wonder if my faith was bigger back then and how do I measure the faith in me right now, in 2010? You are right. We can only sing that song once in a while; not behave like one anymore but to grow up and be matured and responsible adults.
Blessings,
