Come Anyway
words and music by Carolyn Arends
I’m not the least bit ready for you
But come, come anyway
I’m not the least bit worthy of you
But come, come anyway
I’ve only seen you in my dreams
And gleaming in your daddy’s eye
But I love you madly already
You need to know that I
Can hardly wait to see your face
So come, come anyway
I know the worlds a scary place
But come, come anyway
Cause you’re the greatest proof there is
That there’s a loving God alive
And I love you madly already
You need to know that I
Never heard a sweeter sound than
your heart beating
Never had a higher hope than you
I’ve only seen you in my dreams
And gleaming in your daddy’s eye
But I love you madly already
You need to know that I
Can hardly wait to see your face
So come, come anyway
Come, come anyway
Come

Written by Carolyn Arends.
Let me hold you close, I know you’re frightened
Go ahead and cry, I understand
You were safe and you were warm
And then suddenly without a warning
Things began to change
It must have seemed so strange
To all at once be traveling a journey
All the way to this delivery room
But baby you are not alone
Your room is ready, let’s go home
You’re gonna like it here
Let me make it clear that
We’ve been waiting for you
We’re so glad you came
We’ve been looking forward
To showing you the place
There’s so much in store and
We’ve been waiting for you
I know it can take some getting used to
But this old world is where you’re meant to be
Life is something not to miss
The taste of ice cream, your first kiss
And when love takes your hand
You will understand why
We’ve been waiting for you
We’re so glad you came
We’ve been looking forward
To showing you the place
There’s so much in store and
We’ve been waiting for you
And watching you come into this world
Baby, you’ve made me believe
Another journey awaits us
So when I have to leave
I am pretty sure that I’ll be frightened
But even if I cry, please understand
I will know I’m not alone
When my room is ready I’ll go home
And when I reach the gate
I’m going to hear them saying
We’ve been waiting for you
We’re so glad you came
We’ve been looking forward
To showing you the place
There’s so much in store and
We’ve been waiting for you

Be God's
words and music by Carolyn Arends
Don’t forget to wear your sweater
Don’t want you to catch a cold
And please, if you can stand it
Try to eat your vegetables
When you’re standing on the corner
Look both ways, wait for the light
And then take a bigger hand
And hold on tight
(Chorus) When you laugh, laugh with your belly
When you dream, pull out the stops
Don’t take anything for granted
Give it all you’ve got
And when you pray, expect an answer
And know that you are loved
Be yourself, be at peace
Be God’s
Don’t forget to read your Bible
Don’t forget that it’s all true
There’s a God up in those heavens
And He even thought of you
Every road you end up crossing
As you travel through this life
Just reach up for His hand
And hold on tight
(Chorus)
Be yourself, be at peace
Be God’s
