Lord of the Past 2

Every harsh word spoken
Every promise ever broken to me
Total recall of data in the memory
Every tear that has washed my face
Every moment of disgrace that I have known
Every time I've ever felt alone

Lord of the here and now
Lord of the come what may
I want to believe somehow
That you can heal these wounds of yesterday
(You can redeem these things so far away)
So now I'm asking you
To do what you want to do
Be the Lord of the Past
(Be the Lord of my Past)
Oh how I want you to
Be the Lord of the Past

All the chances I let slip by
All the dreams that I let die in vain
Afraid of failure and afraid of pain
Every tear that has washed my face
Every moment of disgrace that I have known
Every time I've ever felt alone

Well I picked up all these pieces
And I built a strong deception
And I locked myself inside of it
For my own protection
And I sit alone inside myself
And curse my company
For this thing that has kept me alive for so long
Is now killing me.
And as sure as the sin rose this morning,
The man in the moon hides his face tonight.
And I lay myself down on my bed
And I pray this prayer inside my head

Lord of the here and now
Lord of the come what may
I want to believe somehow
That you can heal these wounds of yesterday
So now I'm asking you
To do what you want to do
Be the Lord of my Past
You can do anything
Be the Lord of the Past
I know that you can find a way
To heal every yesterday of my life
Be the Lord of the Past

Thank you. The little girl in the photo with the fish died last year not long after these pictures were taken. It was the last time she was at our home. To life, indeed.

Thanks for your serving us by uploading this original song. It has such a helpful message and ministry.

We should all listen to Bob Bennett's words and contemplate how we can live from this moment forward by using our FREE WILL to choose life. Life abundant is available moment by moment when we have abandoned our own rights and submit ourselves to God; body, soul and spirit...

Perfect lyrics, nice kids. Sad to learn of Emily's short life RIP

You got some good shots there and what cute kids. That Bob Bennett song is kind of hard to find.
