What makes me tick?

 

When your lips turn up in a smile and you laugh and your face lights up

and I forget about how broken we are and I remember I was made to love.

When I sing and I can feel passion ringing throughout my entire being. 

When my feet are planted in the sand,

millions of grains right where I stand,

reaching into the ocean that cleanses my hands

so blue, so vast, so magnificent, and so grand. 

When someone says they love you and your world starts spinning.

When someone tries to leave

but you fight for them because you don't believe in quitting. 

When your dreams are so close you can taste them

and you stop following them, you chase them. 

What makes me tick?

Hope, passion, love.

Pouring yourself into life,

going beyond and above.

What makes me tick?

One special man. 

He made you and me, the oceans, the sand.

He mapped out my future, designed my life plan.

He breathed life into my lungs and drummed a beat into my heart.

He is my coach in this race, cheering me on from the start.

He gave me my voice, to sing and praise who He is.

He molded my heart so that I could love like Him.

He died for my sins so that I could have life. 

So what really makes me tick.

My Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ.
