Make a joyful noise

When alone, I love to sing. I sing loud and passionately. I do not, however, sing well. I have been called tone deaf by many people, and those are the people I cannot sing my heart out around. Interestingly enough, singing, although I'm not talented in it, is a part of who I am.
I love to sing. My favorite songs to sing are worship songs, or any kind of song that I can relate to. It is a way I communicate my feelings and thoughts. It is my way of sharing my heart and my mind, my soul and my spirit. For me to not be able to sing in front of someone, because I am ashamed of how terrible I sound or they say I sound, is to not be able to be authentic.
The Bible says to make a joyful noise to the Lord. This is my command, my instruction, and my life. I will make a joyful noise to the Lord. I will sing with my whole heart to praise Him. I will sing a new song to Him. I will sing. I may not sing well, but I must sing. I must make a joyful noise.

wanted a song

I remember the day we first met
I wondered how lucky i'd get.
Would there ever be a chance for me
And you forever to be?
As we continued each day
To learn about eachother and say
We think this can work so let's try
I was so happy I could almost cry

So I wanted to write you a song
I wanted a song for you came along
A song to tell you how happy I am
To be yours and start planning a fam

But of course I was moving too fast
And we know great things don't always last
So you and I drew further apart
And there were days I lost your heart
And you wanted to date t swift just so
She could write a breakup song (so low)

So I wanted to write you a song
you wanted a song all along
So you broke my heart
And gave me a start

To write this stupid little song
Was all you wanted all along
You just wanted a song
To be as famous as king kong
Well you were the king of my heart
Until you tore it all apart
So how do you like your song
The breakup song you wanted all along
