a time for singing...

the manalli house has been filling with music over the past months. and since then, i've written a song with some friends and rediscovered another one that i wrote over three years ago. thought i'd share the lyrics :)

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL GOD
mariya manalli, mark and jeni davis


vs 1
you are the story of stories
you are the light that shines
you are the open door
you always blow my mind
you are the greatest mystery 
yet make it easy to find
your heart


chorus:
what a beautiful God
(4x)


vs 2
the only king that's good
the only kind that's wise
no disappointment found
only love in your eyes
your will is not to shame
but for me to find
your heart 


(chorus)


bridge: 
la la la la la you make me happy!
(repeat)


TAKE A LITTLE TIME
mariya manalli


vs 1
i keep a picture of you
in the stillness of my heart
your life, my favorite song
i know the end before it starts
within your eyes 
comes every sunrise
to you, child
i say...


chorus:
take a little time out of your day
take a little time, come away
and be with me


vs 2
all those things in your life
do they really matter now
my love is color in lifes grey
i am the quiet against the loud
and in my eyes
you're every sunrise
to you, child
i say


(chorus)

hope you enjoyed!
