Things for my World
by F. D. Gaynat
I looked up the skies
and wondered how easy
The clouds went by
while the wind is breezy
All of the things around
are moving like crazy
Taking me off
to feel something frenzy
I've counted all
of the unanswered prayers
Remember when
I crossed my heart
The river keeps moving
while the thunder keeps rollin'
But God as my captain
I can make it through them all
Refrain:
Gone in the wind
Hope to see the light
Free like birds
Serenity I need
Courage and wisdom
for my world
I kept on understanding
things not so mean
Over the years
the empty is filled up
The weary turned happy
and all is well
Bridge:
When the lights go off
and the lightnings blaze
I got to hold on through
I got to hold on you
Give me courage
Give me strength
Writing Songs from the heart...

BROTHER
F. D. Gaynat
Why did he have to go?
Someone tell me why?
Without sayin’ goodbye
He was gone out of this world.
Walking on the park of life
I see my brother passin’ by
Smilin’ like a boy or cryin’ like a man
I don’t know how he feels, I just can’t bear.
Oh! My brother!
I’m missin’ you so much
I have seen deaths before
But I thought it would never happen to us
Now that he was gone, my world turned upside down
Oh God help me understand.
Not just as one (mmm)
But he was a big brother
He taught me how I look
I was happy he was there.
Oh! My brother!
I’m missin’ you so much
In this real world I stand
I found perfection in us
But no one lasts forever
Perfection is never seen again.
God give me strength (amen)
Help me understand
Serenity I need, bless me Lord
Sit beside him, tell him to watch over me.
Oh! My brother!
I’m missin’ you so much
Serenity I need, bless me Lord
Sit beside him, tell him to watch over me.

LITTLE MEMORIES
F. D. Gaynat
Mama's here coming
Daddy's out working
Brother's there helping
Sister's in washing
And I am dancing!
Little memories make me high
Small pictures make me smile
Childhood days are the best
I kept on dancing, yeah!
Mama bought me orange
She had sandwich for daddy
For brother she got a set of pomade
Sister was so happy with the lipstick!
Little memories are so big
Silly things are the best
Brother runaway at night
I swept away at day!
