A SIMPLE TRUTH

Life is short
People are fragile
Handle with care

THIS IS A HOUSE WHERE CHILDREN LIVE

Stacey Winder — Fri, 05 Aug 2011 11:30:00 EST

This is a house where children live

Fingerprints smeared on the glass

When I get tired I try to remember

These years will be gone in a flash

Little fingers under bathroom doors

Art work hangs on the fridge

Mountains of laundry, tripping on toys

This is a house where children live

I'LL PRAISE YOUR NAME

I'm weary of my own complaints
I know I'm getting in Your way
My pride, my fear, they shake my faith
I need to trust, receive Your grace

I'M SO AMAZED BY YOUR LOVE

Stacey Winder — Sun, 13 Sep 2009 15:51:00 EST

When I look up to the stars in the sky
I begin to feel quite small
I'm so amazed by Your love
How I could even matter at all

DON'T GIVE UP ON ME

Lord, I�m crying out

I beg you to hear my plea

I�m struggling with who I am

And your dreams for me

MY NEW LIFE

This was written about ten years ago as I was going through a divorce and facing the challenges of being a single mother to my young son, not even two years old at the time.

WHEN

Stacey Winder — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 12:46:00 EST

She was staring out the window

Thinking �bout the life she�s led

Wondering if she can face

The things that lie ahead

BETTER THAN I AM

Stacey Winder — Thu, 13 Nov 2008 12:38:00 EST

You make me better than I am

You make me want to try

Your eyes so full of wonder

Make me wonder why

DADDY, DON'T GO

Stacey Winder — Fri, 26 Sep 2008 15:55:00 EST

When I was a little girl
You'd bounce me on your knee
You'd tell me I was pretty
And I always tried to please
