One of my favorite all time Christian Artists is, Jennifer Knapp. Her songs are so real to my life, and they have helped me get through many storms. I find myself going back to certain songs when I have bad days or things going on in my life that have me down...

There are two that I am really relating to again these days...Let me share them with you...If you can, buy the CD with them on it (Kansas) ... Her voice really makes these songs come alive. However, I am sure the lyrics alone will move you!

Undo Me

Papa I think I messed up again
Was it something I did?
Was it something I said?
I don't mean to do you wrong
It's just this way of human nature!

Sister I know I let you down.
I can tell by the fact you're never comin around.
You don't have to say a thing..
I can tell by your eyes exactly what you mean.

That it's time to get down on my knees and pray.
Lord undo me
Put away this flesh and bone
Til you own this spirit threw me.
Lord undo me.

Mama I know I made you cry
But I never meant to hurt you
I never meant to lie.
While the world shook it's head in
shame I let you take the blame.

Brother I know you labored so hard to please
But I cut you down and I left you on your knees
Well I know it must be

Time To get down on my knees and pray.
Lord undo me
Put away this flesh and bone
Til you own this spirit threw me.
Lord undo me....

I am wanting, needing, guilty & greedy.
Unrighteous, unholy undo me.

Abba Father, you must wonder why
More times than Peter I have denied.
Three nails and a cross to prove
I owe my Life eternally to you!

Well its time to get down on my knees and pray.
Lord undo me
Put away this flesh and bone
Til you own this spirit threw me.
Lord undo me.


AND....


Refine Me

I come into this place, burning to receive your peace
I come with my own chains, for wars I fought for my own selfish gains

Your my God and my father, I've accepted your Son
But my soul feels so empty now, what have I become?

Lord...Come with your fire, burn my desires
Refine me
Lord...My will has deceived me, please come and free me
Refine me

My heart can't see,
when I only look at me
My soul can't hear,
when I only think of my own fears.

And they are gone in a moment,
your forever the same
Why did I look away from you,
how can i speak your name?

Lord...Come with your fire, burn my desires
Refine me
Lord...My will has deceived me, please come and free me
Come rescue this child, cause long to be reconciled to you...
It's all I can do, to give my heart and soul to you, and pray.....
and pray..... and I will pray...

Lord...Come with your fire, burn my desires
Refine me
Lord...
My will has deceived me, please come and free me
Refine me

Refine me... Refine me...Refine me............
