Sparks Fly

Fireworks aren't always instantaneous. 
Sometimes, you have to assemble the fireworks one ingredient at a time 
& then, after a while, a moment of spontaneous combustion takes place 
as the hearts of two people ignite into a beautiful showpiece of love & real life. 

Yeah, I think the best fireworks, the awe inspiring, great romantic ones, 
burst out of the accumulation of hard work & intentional loving. 
The kind of loving that doesn't come easy. 
The kind of loving that's hesitant at first, 
but slowly and softly opens the heart to find 
what it never knew it desired.

I am your good thing


He who finds a wife, looks for a wife not for a girlfriend.
If you want to wife her up, no time for lust, just sit and listen.

He who finds a wife, gives Christ his life, 
So he can find her.


Years of patient waiting,
Cautiously not to awaken,

Love until the time was right.
To love her with the love of Christ.

He who finds a wife, who finds a wife, he finds her waiting,
Not wasting time, but serving Christ,
Not debating whether or not she should be dating,
Not looking for love in all the wrong places,
Not defined by her singleness or lack of a diamond ring.

He who finds a wife, who finds a wife, he finds her ready,
Awake with her oil lamp filled and burning.
He finds her on her knees, worshiping her King, her Creator God,
The one who made her and fashioned every part of her being.
She's beautiful, she's radiant, she's far above all he imagined and dreamed,
This groom stops, no more seeking, get to know her and lean in,
Patiently, not revealing his identity- he also kneels and worships his king.
Time unfolds as this love story begins to weave,
The pages of their separate journeys create a romance- seamless- a dream.
He gazes at her and knows that he's found her- it's real love sent from eternity.

Now is the time to call off his search, he sees her also as Christ sees the church.
It doesn't take long when your matchmaker is king- the great love story author.
If you want to find a wife he's the one you need to seek.


He who finds a wife, who finds a wife,

He who finds her- finds a good thing.


I am your wife, i am your wife, 

come find me- I am your good thing.

Quite something











Who are you? You're something I'd like to get to know.
There's a mystery in your voice.
It sounds familiar, it harmonizes with my core. 
Your smile triggers my smile- i lose control. 
You reach out to shake my hand, but I want to hold yours.
You're something, quite something I'd like to get to know.
Who are you? You're name I've never known.
But your eyes speak to my soul.
A conversation I'm not a part of.
May I be so bold,
To follow you into the other room?
May I be so bold,
To tell you that your something,
I'd like to get to know?
May I watch you from a distance,
And wait until I've discovered your mystery,
To say I'm in love with you?
Will my bravery be rewarded?
Will you let me wait?
Will you stay?
Hidden,
For me to uncover?
You're a hidden treasure.
You are something, 
Quite something, I'd like to get to know.

love, you are un-named, you have no phone.
you're a stranger, you are unknown.
but, please, just tell me 
this one thing and I'll be through:
quite something, who. are. you?

If I was queen.



Love paints the sunset
my heart is drawn to fields that 
we run through and just let 
heaven do the talking.

The dark shade of blue fades into the sky
the mystery gazes into our eyes.
Spread out under telephone wires
watching distant burning fire.

The stars, they hung there all wild,
like beautiful sounding music, from the telephone wires.
I looked up and thought
 'wouldn't it be neat if we could play the stars"?
In the dark, I thought,
'I bet that'd sound amazing, if I could sing the stars."

I don't know what their song might be,
But I will sing.

We belong,
We belong,
We are strong and burning brighter.

Don't give into defeat,
You have your own kind of beauty,
Live like you were queen,

Sing your heart,
Play the stars,
They reveal who you are,
Who you are, you belong.
