i was just messing around, lost in my reminescence, and i stumbled upon this song, or shall i say, rediscovered it. i don't even like the way that they did the song, it's kind of wierd, but the lyrics are so powerful. a constant reminder to all of us that life is a daily surrender to god...the song's by avalon, entitled "dreams i dream for you"...

you taste the tears, you're lost in sorrow
you see your yesterdays, i see tomorrow
you see the darkness, i see the spark
you know your failures, but i know your heart

the dreams i dream for you
are deeper than the ones you're clinging to
more precious than the finest things you knew
and truer than the treasures you pursue
let the old dreams die, like stars that fade from view
then take the cup i offer
and drink deeply of the dreams i dream for you

you see your shame, but i see your glory
you've read one page, i know the story
i hold a vision that you'll become
as you grow into the truth, as you learn to walk in love

the dreams i dream for you
are deeper than the ones you're clinging to
more precious than the finest things you knew
and truer than the treasures you pursue
let the old dreams die, like stars that fade from view
then take the cup i offer
and drink deeply of the dreams i dream for you

so let the old dreams die, like stars that fade from view
then take the cup i offer
and drink deeply of the dreams i dream for you

it's so wierd, as i read the lyrics to this song, it's like god is speaking them to me, as if i can hear his voice, as if he's lovingly telling me of the things he's got planned for me. and i wish i could let everything go and simply belong to him. but it is so very hard...
