One really big guitar!


Looks like the one I have at home. Hopefully, it inspires me to write and record more!

Peace Out,
Jen

Renew in Me Lyrics

A simple form of serving
A little concerned for the living
As you placed your hands on my feet
And said I come to wash them clean(Repeat)

How undeserving am I
To be served by the master
Who would lay down his life
To show that I really mattered
Who would lay down his life
To show that I really mattered

What does this mean, by this new name
Paid for by the blood of the Lamb that was slain(Repeat 2x's)

Renew in me, renew in this spirit
Keep this fire firmly lit
For I know the plans you have laid out for me
By your grace I am free
For I know the plans you have laid out for me
By your grace I am free

Lyrics to Light to the Dark

Light to the Dark by Jen Liu

Did you feel your heart break?
As tears covered your face
As the those impossible words were said

Each breath you seemed to take
Felt like heavyweights
Being placed upon your head

This can’t be it, you cried
How can this be life?
How can this pain hurt so much inside?
And I can’t take it any longer
Won’t you take these burdens off my shoulders?

He’s says, I’ll be with you always
I’ll be your strength to the end of days
Just lift your burdens on my cross
As you grieve this cause, as you grieve this loss
Cause I’ve placed this upon your heart
So you can be a light to the dark

Did you feel your heartache?
As tears covered your face
As the those impossible words were read
Each breath you seemed to take
Felt like heavyweights
Being placed upon your head

This can’t be it, you cried
How can this be life?
When will this pain subside?
And I can’t take it any longer
Won’t you take these burdens off my shoulders?

He’ll be with you always
He’ll be your strength to the end of days
Just lift your burdens on His cross
As you grieve this cause, as you grieve this loss
You’ll be with me always
You’ll be my strength to the end of days
I’ll lift my burdens on your cross
As I grieve this cause, as I grieve this loss

Cause you’ve placed this upon my heart
Oh, you’ve placed this upon our hearts
So we can be a light to the dark
So we can be a light to the dark.

Update!

Well, I'm back on track. My mom went back to the island and I'm getting into the hang of being without home cooked food. But, all is good. Thank you to all my friends for helping me readjust. As I'm getting back into shape (physically, spiritually, etc), I'll be recording more and posting up my music. Not the highest quality of production, but the best tools I have.

One of many songs written awhile back

My first post with a song of mine. How exciting! I'm thrilled to be sharing with you these inspired songs about life. This one happens to be about divorce. I'm not divorced, but my parents are and this is just a story of how divorce can play in the future of a child. Introspective kind of look. Below are the lyrics:

One thing's for sure, someone's gonna get hurt
Especially when two people say they don't love each other anymore
Behind closed doors it's a different world
Screaming matches, emotional madness, deepening sadness
When will it all end and who's gonna get caught
In between the war zone you started at home

I don't want to live like this
A civilian caught up in the midst
Waiting for this war to end
So, we can start our lives again

Cause I've been taking it in
Taking everything
And it's a little bit overwhelming
As a kid it's hard not to let it get to me
So, when you guys quit, you don't have to say you're sorry

Things that impact us when were kids
Events, mistakes, fights all fall within
I can't remember the last time we just laughed
I know that this past holds me back

I don't want to live like this
Following my parents' footsteps
This battle we have just began
But, I lay down my pride to work on what we have

Cause we've been taking it in
Taking everything
And it's a little bit overwhelming
But, don't let it get the best of us
Let's not quit, let's focus back on us
