Whatever It Takes

I have made this plea on my knees
A hundred times before
Now, windows open to my soul
Shining light I've waited for

I've prayed my whole life
To feel this way
To know for myself
That it's true

With this step of faith

White Dress

Long before morning, without a warning
Annie came calling to little Louisa
Wearing the moonlight, but wanting the sunlight
She stood at her bedside and poured out her heart
Get up and tell Mama all that I said
'Cause I can't move ahead
Unless I can get a white a dress

Charlotte O'Grady, a dear-hearted lady
She's seen nearly eighty years coming and going
One night while she's dreaming

The Watchmen

There is a refuge
Come inside, be not afraid
A mighty fortress
Where the walls are built by the promises we've made
A palace of protection
Where the sword is still defending what is right
Where the watch never weakens
But goes on and on and on into the night

Like a constant in the chaos
It's been there all along

Taking It Home with Me

Living in a world where choice is free
Seems hard to make it on my own
At times I need a place
Where I can feel my heavenly home

Walking down the road life offers me
Searching for the way to go
At times I make mistakes
But that's a way
To learn and grow
