Worship Songs

 I've been writing some worship music lately. I don't claim to be a singer or musician, though I enjoy both, I don't find my purpose or talent in those two things, but what I do love is writing poetry and song lyrics.

I've found writing worship music is a lot more beneficial for me than even writing worship poetry, it has a whole different feel to it and I definitely feel like I can get my thoughts out better in worship music.

I think music is our way of talking and connecting with God more. Here is one finished worship song I wrote and part of a song I'm working on writing currently.

I don't have music for the songs yet, and I don't know if I'll ever actually do anything with them, but I do have the lyrics written down for now.

Praise You Where I've Sinned-

(Verse One)

Father hear my prayer

I'm asking again

how could you give your hardest battles

To just a little kid

And father I stopped speaking my mind 

By the time I was ten

Could you open my shut up mouth

So I 

can praise you again

I'll praise you again

(Chorus)

In the firey mountain 

In the places I've sinned

In the backseat of cars

In hospital beds

  In the nights I spent crying 

  In the days I denied your face

I'll praise you again

I'll praise you again

(Verse Two)

Father hear my prayer

Why do people get sick?

Why do babies die in the womb

And women get no choice in bed

And I father why do I fail

When all I'm trying to do

Is serve you

Could you take my hand

And lead me 

So I can praise you again 

I'll praise you again 

(Chorus)

In the firey mountain 

In the places I've sinned

In the backseat of cars

In hospital beds

  In the nights I spent crying 

  In the days I denied your face

I'll praise you again

I'll praise you again

(Ending verse)

Father forgive my sins

So I can forgive myself

Help me to hold on

when I'm not feeling so well

And father read my heart

When the words just don't exist

For how I can praise you here

In the places I've sinned

In the backseat of cars

In beds I don't belong

With things to my lips

That can utter no song

In the darkest of nights

In the heat of 

day

Lord help me praise you again

I'll praise you again....

(Part of a song I'm currently writing)-

(Chorus)

Oh I don't wanna live anymore

I just wanna fall to my knees on the floor

And ask Lord what are we doing this for

What are we doing this for

Because I

I'm trying and fighting to survive

And I

I'm trying and fighting to keep my head up high

Oh what am I doing this for

Lord remind me in whispers while I'm fighting this war

Oh I

What I am doing this for

Lord remind me in whispers what you created me for...
