SOmetimes I Can't Fly(A veces no Puedo Volar)
It takes so much to just lift my head sometimes.
(Esto toma tanto para levantar sólo mi cabeza a veces.)
I wonder where the strength shall come from to finish the day.
(Me pregunto donde la fuerza vendrá de terminar el día.)
I wait on You O God to show me the way.
(Espero en Usted a Dios O para mostrarme el camino.)
My eyes hurt from seeing all of this crazy rain.
(Mi daño de ojos de ver toda esta lluvia loca.)
My arms shatter because I reached too far for You yesterday.
(Mis armas se rompen porque alcancé demasiado lejos para Usted ayer.)
You give me peace O Lord God.
(Usted me da la paz O Señor Dios.)
In Your arms is my strength for living O Lord God.
(En Sus armas es mi fuerza para vivir el Señor O Dios.)
The Hurts Won't Stop
Dios, Dios, why do we still have these hurts ripping us and burning us and taking all that we own from us? We
came to this place for peace adn love and all that we have found here is more hurting, more killing, more familia breaking.
It was bad enough in our own land, and now we are here.
Mothers are being watched by daughters for how to live in this place. Fathers are being watched by sons for keys
on how to make it in this place. The darkness brings new pictures of life and demands an answer for why we are still here.
We are here, hermanas y hermanos, because Dios has planted us here to show that He is the key to life. Peace lives with Dios.
Joy lives with Dios. Hearts are made to beat again because of the life of Dios that we can not always see working for us.
Emmanuel. Emmanuel. God IS with us. Right now, right here, there are pains, we are so tired, we are worn out, we are broken,
we are wondering how another day shall be wrth it all, but all we have to do is just call Dios and tell Dios that we don't
see how these bills are going to get paid.. We have to call Dios and tell Dios that we don't see how these frustrations are
going to get solved. Mama is running over here and over there trying to find her mind. Daddy is tossing this and tossing that
trying to find his mind. Seems like everybody just lost their minds. I have been trying to find my own mind here.
Hard to stand up here. hard to see Dios here so many times. Want to just give up. Go home. Call it quits. Get
home and all I can think about is how much Dios is for all people. Tell myself in my mind and sometimes out loud that I don't
want to har that fuss. Dios is for me and my people and that's all. The other people got too muc hfor themselves as it is.
The love in me starts boiling and before I know it I don't like this group of people becaus they are always trying to hold
us down, but now I have to see that before anyone can hold us down we hae to hold ourselves down, we have to give them permission
to hold us down too. Have you given someone permission to hold you down, to keep you locked up, to take away the light called
Dios from you. The Bible says that the tief is he who comes to steal, kill and destroy. He is the first one to say that our
paths are wrong, that we acan't makeit because we ain't got it in us to stick with Dios and Jesuchristo. But the devil is
a liar, and there is no truth in him. He shall come to rip me and you with these bills for these dreams of owning this and
that we have, he may come and take away all our health and leave us down on our knees crying out to God for some help, he
may give us the short end of the bargain stick and leave us cradling cigarrettes, booze, sex with this one and that one, needles
and all the rest but Dios is still here ready to tell us that we are His from the top to the bottom, oldest to youngest, richest
to poorest, best dressed to worst dressed to no dressed at all. We are Dios' children. That means something. That means EVERYTHING!
Life will come to get you and i down, will come to take our peace, our joy, our property, our sanity, but Dios is ourneed
Supplier. Teenager, searching 4 who u are keep on walking in this place because Dios has not forgotten you. Pregnant ones,
keep on alking in this pace because Dios has not forgotten you. Bums, keep on walking in this place because Dios is about
to pick you up in this place. We are meant to show this world that Dios makes us more than conquistadors, more than conquerors,
through His Hijo. Jesuchristo. And because of Jesuchristo we can lift our heads again. Right now, lift up your heads, lift
up your heads. Dios loves you, Dios loves you, Dios loves you!!!
Dios, Dios, Dios, so many worries, so many scars, so many hurts. Take our
worries, our scars, our hurts away, right now in the name of Jesuschristo. We need your peace to be in us. We need your joy
to be in us. We need your love to be in us. Because Dios, where shall we go and who else shall care for us like you do. You
are our father forever. You are our joy forever. You, Dios, are our hope for new life forever. Hold us close as we walk these
paths. Feed us with Your hands and teach us to live with thank you's instead of better give it here's. You are our Dios and
we are your people. Keep us safe and hold our loads until we are with you. In Jesuchristo's precious name, Amen.
