I am strong
I have faith
I am not afraid to try

I'm on my feet
I have hope
Where I walked before now I fly
you are, you are the reason why
You are the reason why
I have everything I do
and I hope some day I can give it all back to you
oh yes I do
the rain has stopped
the clouds are gone
there is a rainbow across the sky
you are, you are the reason
you are, you are the reason
you are, you are the reason why
I am strong
I have faith
I have hope

In a Song

This is a song that is was written and sung by country artist Todd Fritsch  - I love what it says and it's how I feel about music and my passion for songs and what they say.  Wanted to share :)


I have had my heart broken by a melody
I have heard the message that an angel sent to me
In a song
I have felt the breath of passion on my skin
Of the lover I am longing to surrender to again
In a song
In a song I have loved and I have laughed and I have cried
Come face to face with demons that had no where left to hide
I've felt the truth wash over me like waves upon the tide
In a song
My Dad and I made peace playing chords on this guitar
He's been gone almost a year but he's still singing in my heart
In a song
I've stood tall and watched Old Glory and I have felt the pride
Of the freedom that I've been given by a hero's sacrifice
In a song
In a song I have loved and I have laughed and I have cried
Come face to face with demons that had no where left to hide
I've felt the truth wash over me like waves upon the tide
In a song
Oooo In a song
I was born again and that's where I'm going to die
So on the day you lay me down and sing my soul goodbye
Know that all my love for you will always be alive
In a song
And that's how I know there's something more 
then words and melody
Maybe that's the way God talks to you and me
In a song
