A Celebration Song Sometimes I sat around with my TV way up loud, dyin' quietly inside. Sometimes I sat around with a beer & a mate, cryin', nowhere too hide. Sometimes I hungered for your gentle touch, wantin' your lovin' way; Scroungin' on the ground for any love I could get, tryin' to feel o.k. Anger was my main man - Pushin' me a round Dancin' in the graveyard - I was headin' for Sometimes in the Joint, in a bong or a bang, swallowin' whatever pill. My life was slippin' by, a real nowhere man, just a fool on a hill. Never knowin' what real love could be, feelin' on short pay; I thought I was doomed for the rest of my life to live this achin' way. Anger was my main man - Pushin' me a round Dancin' in the graveyard - I was headin' for But let me tell you 'bout the One I met, crazy as it may sound; Came inside my heart, chased out the dark, turned my life around. Jesus is His name, the Man from Galilee, and with His Grace He gifted me; Now living is so good, even when things go wrong, 'cos I have liberty Jesus is my main man - helpin' heal my world Dancin' in my journey - delightin' in my joy He gives me peace and joy, new family on the way, a great place to belong; And in livin' life with Him I have a Valley-guide, helpin' me be strong. What He's done for me He promises to all, dealing with sin and pain; So my celebration song is for the very Son of God and Jesus is His Name Jesus is my main man - helpin' heal my world Dancin' in my journey - delightin' in my joy (Repeat chorus to conclude) God bless and keep you, Namaste!

I love the contrast in the song - and the scattering of song titles. Write on Keth Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown |
