i started signing again yesterday. not singing, although i had to do that, too. see, the two songs i love signing most as my wake-up songs are on cds i lost at camp. i was at camp for nine days altogether and lost two cds. [tear]
so i sang. but that isn't the point. the point is, i'm signing again. the reason i needed to this morning was that i tend to wake up thinking about something i want that isn't God. and i think it's cool to want things other than God, but i really think He should be what i want most. 'cause i realized this week that unless God is my first love, there can be no second love.
so i signed this:
i could live life alone
and never fill the longings of my heart
the healing warmth of someone's arms
and i could live without dreams
and never know the thrill of what could be
with every star so far and out of reach
i could live without many things
and i could carry on, but...
i couldn't face my life tomorrow
without Your hope in my heart, i know
i can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's no morning
without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all i do
i can't live a day without You
i could travel the world
see all the wonders beautiful and new
they'd only make me think of You
and i could have all life offers
riches that were far beyond compare
to grant my every wish without a care
oh, i could do anything,
but if You weren't in it all...
i couldn't face my life tomorrow
without Your hope in my heart, i know
i can't live a day without You
Lord, there's no night and there's no morning
without Your loving arms to hold me
You're the heartbeat of all i do
i can't live a day without You
oh, Jesus, i live because You live
You're like the air i breathe
oh, Jesus, i have because You give
You're everything to me
hey, g. mango, i first heard this at lpc. 'member? craziness.

LPC?
Oh! Lakeshore. Took me a while to figure that one out. And, no, I totally don't remember this song or it's presence at Lakeshore. Because it happened in high school and I don't remember anything from back then.
But it is nice. Glad it helped you think of your first love.
I found your casting crowns cd! It was mixed in with mine somehow. I'll bring it when I come down on the 10th, will you be at church on the 13th?
g. mango: some chick sang it at the talent show.
nav: i can be! by the way, you should also have my wow2000 cd, since you guys used it to sign this song at camp! :'(
