    The Power Of Your Love

    Performed by-Lincoln Brewster

    Lord I come to You

    Let my heart be changed renewed

    Flowing from the grace that I found

    In You

    Lord I've come to knowThe weakness I see in me

    Will be stripped away

    By the power of Your love

    Hold me close

    Let Your love surround me

    Bring me nearDraw me to Your side

    And as I wait

    I'll rise up like the eagle

    And I will soar with You

    Your Spirit leads me on

    By the power of Your love

    Lord unveil my eyes

    Let me see You face to face

    The knowledge of Your love as You live

    In me

    Lord renew my mind

    As Your will unfolds my life

    In living every day

    By the power of Your love

    Hold me close

    Let Your love surround me

    Bring me near

    Draw me to Your side

    Gloria Gaynor - I Am What I Am lyrics

    I am what I am

    I am my own special creationSo come take a look

    Give me the hook

    Or the ovation

    It's my worldThat I want to have a little pride

    My world

    And it's not a place I have to hide in

    Life's not worth a dam

    Till I can say

    I am what I am

    I am what I am

    I don't want praise I don't want pity

    I bang my own drum

    Some think it's noise I think it's pretty

    And so what if I love each sparkle and each bangleWhy not see things from a different angle

    Your life is a shameTill you can shout out I am what I am

    I am what I am

    And what I am needs no excuses

    I deal my own deck

    Sometimes the aces sometimes the deuces

    It's one life and there's no return and no deposit

    One life so it's time to open up your closet

    Life's not worth a dam till you can shout out

    I am what I am

    I am what I am

    I am what I am

    And what I am needs no excuses

    I deal my own deck sometimes the aces sometimes the

    deuces

    It's one life and there's no return and no depositOne life so it's time to open up your closet

    Life's not worth a dam till you can shout out

    I am what I am

    I am I am I am good

    I am I am I am strong

    I am I am I am worthy

    I am I am I belong

    I am I am

    Who whoooo etc.

    I am

    I am I am I am useful

    I am I am I am true

    I am I am somebody

    I am as good as you

    Yes I am

    Biscuits Of Love

    by Mindy Carpenter

    Memories of my youth.

    Flood over my soul.When I think of Grandma.They make me feel whole.

    Gathering at her house.

    With all the family there.We made lots of memories.

    For all of us to share.

    Lessons that she taught me.

    Guide me thru the day.

    If I listened closely.

    I cannot go astray.Love and commitment.

    She drilled into me.

    Making the person that I am.Just who I want to be.

    Grandma has many names.Each one has their chosen.

    But the names I want her called

    Starts with love,For she is warm and not frozen.

    A Book Of Memoriesby Kathleen Sheppard

    Hidden in the attic,

    all the way upstairs,is something very special,

    that I would like to share.

    My hopes,my dreams,

    old photographs,of good times and bad times that make me laugh.

    The joy of a hug,

    the thrill of a kiss,leaves me to remember the pure, simple bliss.

    I cry for the fun,

    and giggle for the pain,I enjoyed the good life I was able to maintain.

    The thoughts and wishes,

    they all stay with me,

    all of these contained in my book of memories.

    The Mask

    by Wolfgirl

    A mask of plastic happiness often covers hersadness

    Her beliefs hidden from most

    Afraid of, but willing to face the unknownWondering where her place is in this life

    She has come close to sharing herself

    Never completely revealing anything to anyoneFeelings of invisible chains corner her

    When she dreams, reality shatters before her

    very eyes

    Accomplishments she strives for just at handsgrasp

    She feels lost sometimes, not yet finding her

    notch in this world

    At times the glimmer in her calm eyes slowlydisappears

    But within her heart a silent flame burns herinside and out

    She roams day by day, playing roles

    Strength unknowingly resides in herHistory repeats itself once again

    The translucent veil she so proudly wears

    Little by little answers will come, pushing it

    asideOne day there will be no more mask for her to

    wearOne day her beliefs will be knownOne day she'll know her place in this life

    One day she will share herself

    Believe The Impossible

    Every great achievement was once impossible

    until someone set a goal to make it a reality.

    Lewis Carroll's famous masterpiece Through the

    Looking Glass contains a story that exemplifiesthe need to dream the impossible dream. There

    is a conversation between Alice and the queen,which goes like this:

    "I can't believe that!" said Alice.

    "Can't you?" the queen said in a pitying tone.

    "Try again, draw a long breath, and shut youreyes."

    Alice laughed. "There's no use trying," she said.

    "One can't believe impossible things."

    "I dare say you haven't had much practice," saidthe queen. "When I was your age, I always did it

    for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I'vebelieved as many as six impossible things before

    breakfast."

    When you dare to dream, many marvels can beaccomplished. The trouble is, most people never

    start dreaming their impossible dream.

    Two Kinds of People

    There are only two kinds of people on earthtoday

    Two kinds of people, no more I say.

    Not the rich and the poor, for to know a man's

    wealth

    You must first know the state of his conscience

    and health,

    Not the happy and sad, for in life's passingyears,

    Each has his laughter and each has his tears.

    No, the two kinds of people on earth I mean

    Are the people who lift and the people who lean.

    In which class are you? Are you lifting the load

    Of some overtaxed lifter who's going down theroad

    Or are you a leaner who lets others share

    Your portion of toil and labor and care?

    A Short Course in Human Relations

    The six most important words: I admit that I

    was wrong. The five most important words: Youdid a great job. The four most important words:

    What do you think? The three most importantwords: Could you please. . . The two most

    important words: Thank you. The mostimportant word: We. The least important word:

    I.

    A Ten-Cent Idea

    When young F. W. Woolworth was a store clerk,he tried to convince his boss to have a ten-cent

    sale to reduce inventory. The boss agreed, andthe idea was a resounding success. This inspired

    Woolworth to open his own store and price itemsat a nickel and a dime. He needed capital for

    such a venture, so he asked his boss to supplythe capital for part interest in the store. His boss

    turned him down flat. "The idea is too risky," he

    told Woolworth. "There are not enough items tosell for five and ten cents." Woolworth wentahead without his boss's backing, and he not

    only was successful in his first store, buteventually he owned a chain of F. W. Woolworth

    stores across the nation. Later, his former bosswas heard to remark, "As far as I can figure out,

    every word I used to turn Woolworth down costme about a million dollars."
