Do not let your fire go out, spark by irreplacable spark. In the hopeless swamps of the not quite, the not yet, and the not at all, do not let the hero in your soul perish and leave only frustration for the life you deserved, but never have been able to reach. The world you desire can be won, it exists, it is real, it is possible, it is yours.

Sparrow

Why should I feel discouraged
Why should the shadows come
Why should my heart feel lonely
And long for heaven and home
When Jesus is my portion
A constant friend is He
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches over me
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches
I know He watches
I know He watches me

I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
His eye is on the sparrow
And I know He watches me (He watches me)
He watches me
I know
He watches
Me







Let me be your star

Fade in on a girl
With a hunger for fame,
And a face and a name to remember.
The past fades away
Because as of this day,
Norma Jean's gone.
She's moving on... 

Her smile and your fantasies play a duet
That will make you forget where you are.
The music starts playing,
It's the beat of her heart saying...
Let me be your star. 

Flashback to a girl
With a song in her heart,
As she's waiting to start the adventure.
The fire and drive
That make dreams come alive...
They fill her soul.
She's in control... 

The drama, the laughter, the tears just like pearls-
Well, they’re all in this girl’s repertoire.
It’s all for the taking,
And it’s magic we’ll be making;
Let me be your star. 

I'll just have to forget the hurt that came before, 
Forget what used to be. 
The past is on the cutting room floor,
The future is here with me. 


Choose me!
Fade up on a star
With it all in her sights...
All the love and the lights
That surround her.
Someday she’ll think twice
Of the dues and the price 

She’ll have to pay 
But not today... 

Then she’ll do all she can
For the love of one man,
And for millions who look from afar.
And what you’ve been needing
Is all here in my heart, pleading...
Let me be your star!
