Shiela Jo. An ode to my guitar. Because I have no idea who it's really about.

Here's an older one, but it still gets performed by my band. It's not my favorite, but everyone else seems to like it. So i guess it's a good song.


So tell me
Why'd you put on that face again?
You're far too lovely
To hide behind that caked on sin

Why?
Do you try,
To be,
What you already are

And you're so radiant
You know you shine like the midday sun
And your smile
Brightens up everyone

Why?
Do you try,
To be,
What you already are

Everyday you turn the page
In this story that lasts an age
And every word is about you
And every beautiful thing you do

So try
Don't be blind
And see
What you already are

This just came to me tonight: The One

It's really poppy, and definitely a praise song, but it got written none the less. Plus i secretly love pop music. Don't tell anyone. I know this information is safe here because only like 3 people read this blog and i'm sure they already know. But anyways, here it is.

The One

You cause the blind to see
You make the dumb speak
You cause the lame to leap
You even rescued me

You cause me to see
Your invisible deeds
You never ever sleep
Your Spirit is in me

You are the One
You set me free
The nations will shout
Of Your Great Love

With You I stand
You are in command
Holding in Your hands
Forever in Your plan

You cause me to see
Your invisible deeds
You never ever sleep
Your Spirit is in me

You are The One
You set me free
the nations will shout
Of Your Great Love

Take all of me
Forever with You I’ll be
Here I am
Forever with You I’ll stand
