Youth night!

So tonight went a lot better than I had thought it would! It was sad seeing Colin say goodbye to everyone, after so many years with his highschool students, and now he's leaving. But I played Colin the song, he loved it! =D Actually everyone loved it! I got the loudest applause I have ever gotten ever in my whole life! One of the youth leaders even offered to help me record the song! =O It was absolutely incredible! It was funny though, during the second verse (I sort of made it funny), so everyone started laughing, including me, I couldn't stop laughing for a few seconds =P.

After everyone finished their speeches and such, we went back to Fusion and gave a toast to Colin with his favourite drink (coke, not pepsi because to him it tastes like dirt =P) and his family. Also, we gathered around and prayed for him and his family as they start their lives on a new path. There was lots of tears, and macara running (mostly from Sarah =P), but it was all good! I even gave the music/lyrics for the song to Colin, just so he has it =). But I really am going to miss Colin, I can't imagine Velocity without him! It is definitely not going to be the same without him there. I just hope we will find another great youth pastor, even though nobody can replace Colin. Here are the lyrics to my song I wrote for him:



Time Goes By

verse 1



School’s in summer’s gone

Our pastor came along

And what a surprise it was to hear

After 10 whole years

That he had resigned

What a flash before my eyes

I never thought this would come to be

Chorus

That’s alright

Time goes by

But wherever God may lead you

Please remember

That we will always love you

That’s alright

Time goes by

But wherever God may lead you

Please remember

We will miss you

Verse 2

It will not be the same

But I guess that’s ok

We have four leaders to take your place

But I don’t mean that in a mean way

I know they will do great

Chorus

That’s alright

Time goes by

But wherever God may lead you

Please remember

That we will always love you

That’s alright

Time goes by

But wherever God may lead you

Please remember

We will miss you

Anyways, I better go!

God Bless! <3
