God's princess: FLOWER IN THE RAIN

* FLOWER IN THE RAIN*

You are the one, there's no one else
Who lifts me up and gives me water from the well.
But there's a hole that seems to drain it all away.
And once again I'm left in fear and doubt
When all my strength is crying out.

So, here I am again
Willing to be opened up and broken like a flower in the rain.
Tell me what have I to do to die and then be raised
To reach beyond the pain like a flower in the rain

The evil wind, it blows a storm to rock my world
Just when think I'm safe and warm.
I'm led astray far too easily.
It's always hard for me to say I'm wrong
Until I know I can't go on.

So, here I am again
Willing to be opened up and broken like a flower in the rain.
Tell me what have I to do to die and then be raised
To reach beyond the pain like a flower in the rain

Lord, you have searched me and know
When I sleep and when I rise. You're familiar with all my ways.
Even the darkness will shine like the day
When you look into my heart.

So, here I am again
Willing to be opened up and broken like a flower in the rain.
Tell me what have I to do to die and then be raised
To reach beyond the pain like a flower in the rain
Like a flower in the rain

--jaci velasquez

This song reminds me of God's great goodness and compassion for His children. No matter how far we had ran away, when we come back to Him, He receives us with open arms...we can come in full confidence to Him who loves us.

ei jo, i have a copy of this tape at home too. The lyrics of the song just cuts through my heart each time i read it.

naalala ko tuloy ung song kagabi sa yoshinoya during our cell... (rose nga lang ung flower dito.Ü)

You treat me like a rose
You give me room to grow
You shone the light of love on me
And gave me air so I can breathe
You opened doors that close
In a world where anything goes
You give me strength so I stand tall
Within this bed of earth
Just like a rose
