Marvel

Webster defines the word Marvel as something that causes wonder or astonishment.

Marvel - Marveling...
I am simply marveling at the current moment in time.
I mean think about it: It's Christmas, the snow is increadible, I am safe and sound inside of a warm house, with family that loves Jesus.
Just thinking back to that manger some 2000 years ago is more than enough reason to marvel, today on Christmas, or any other day of the year.
To think of the incredible love that caused Jesus to come to earth for sinners like me? Man. I sure don't deserve that. But it is incredible. And it never grows old.

Love brought You here
to the world You created
Love sent His Son
on that first Christmas morn'

Lord, I marvel at Your love
that I cannot fully know
How could You save me,
after all that i've done?

How could the one who made the heavens,
take me as His own?
How could You love,
a sinner like me?

But the wonder of it all,
is that You sent Your Son that Christmas
the wonder of it all,
is that You even came at all.

You could have left us here to wonder
You could have left us on our own.
But You sent Your Son to save us,
and bring redemption for us all.

So in this priceless moment,
I'll fully stand amazed
on this perfect white Christmas,
I simply marvel at Your perfect Love.

Chances

Chances by Five For Fighting

Chances are when said and done
Who'll be the lucky ones
Who make it all the way?
Though you say I could be your answer
Nothing lasts forever
No matter how it feels today

Chances are we´ll find a new equation
Chances roll away from me
Chances are all they hope to be

Don't get me wrong I'd never say never
Cause though love can change the weather
No act of God can pull me away from you

I´m just a realistic man
A bottle filled with shells and sand
Afraid to love beyond what I can lose when it comes to you
And though I see us through yeah

Chances are we´ll find two destinations
Chances roll away from me
Still chances are more than expectations
The possibilities
Over me
Eight to five, two to one
Lay your money on the sun
until you crash what have you done?
Is there a better bet than love?
What you are is what you breathe
You gotta cry before you sing

Chances chances

Chances lost are hopes torn up pages
Maybe this time
Chances are we´ll be the combination
Chances come and carry me
Chances are waiting to be taken
And I can see
Chances are the fascination
Chances won't escape from me
Chances are only what we make them
And all I need
