I'm Over You
For the first time
I saw your face
I fell in love
You were my everything
Together we wouid always be
Hand in Hand
Baby you and me ,
But through time things changed
The love we had
It slipped away
You slept around behind my back
With my best friend
Now what the hell was that
chorus repeat
"I'm over you, girl you did me wrong
But 1 was strong, I've learned
And moved along"
Now you want back
In my life
You say that you have changed
And it's not a lie
But all the pain
That you put me through
I've moved on
And gave up on you
You don't appreciate
A man like me
I gave you all of me
But what did you do
You slept behind my back
And now I'm over you
chorus repeat
"I'm over you, girl you did me wrong
But I was strong, I've learned
And moved along
I don't need a woman like you in my life
The things you did to me
The heartache and strife
I wish you luck
Along your way
That you'll find someone
And gain their trust
Funny how time changes things
Girl just turn your back
And wa!k away
chorus repeat
"I'm over you, girl you did me wrong
But I was strong, I've learned
And moved along
The Whisper
When living in this world today
Its had to survive
There's a different struggle in my life
Its like living day to day in fear
For I sense a dark cloud lingering near
I hear a whister in the distance
Who is it there I ask?
And the whisper speaks louder
Saying, "this too shall pass"
I speak anxiously to the whisper
Please tell me more
The whisper becomes a vision
For it is my Lord
He said"you're strayed away
and you;re no longer whole
But when I'm done with you
You'll come forth as pure as gold.
I'm gonna fill you with a peace
that passes all understanding.
Comfort you with the spirit
for all you are demanding
Acknowledge me in everything you do
and these things you'll have.
Just trust in me I'll see you through
I sall direct your path."

Freedom
If only my freedom
was to come in a day
I'd fall to my knees
And give God thanks
Though time has passed
And has seemed to long
The chains of bondage have broken
And freedom has brought me home
I'd hold my children tight
Not wanting to let go
The moment t dream of
The moment that gives me hope
I'd show them the love
I've longed to give
To see their happiness
Is why I strive to live
Just to be home
And home to stay
If onty my freedom
Was to come in a day

I'll Be There
When late at night and you're all alone
With no one there
To keep you warm
Just think of me
And I'll be there
To comfort you
With love and care
No one can love you
The way I do
No one can give
Their heart so true
When your days get dark
And your nights get long
I'll be there to keep you strong
In your dreams
Youll hear my call
Just to remind you
That I'm not far
In your heart I'll always be
You're never alone just call on me
I'll be there
By Nicholas Acklin
What's On Your Mind
It's been just a short time
Since you've come into my life
You've calmed all the storms
And made peace of my nights
I want to say so much
But where do I begin
I could gain someone special
Or risk losing a good friend
Your words are soft spoken
Your hearts in the right place
Though you many not have noticed
It's written all over your face
Your smile is enchanting
Your eyes capture my soul
I sense an open invitation
But the question I still long to know
What's on your mind?
I've really got to know
