hadassah lyrics critique - (pop song) God's Hands (christian song)

by hadassah
(washington (it changed))

I am a 13-year-old missionary kid on furlough in the U.S. We head back to Senegal, West Africa in a couple weeks. Packing is always hectic!! There are five kids in our wonderful family...and i'm the middle child. lucky me. =) my older brother is in his second year of college, my older sister in her first, and me in 7th grade. my two little sisters are in 6th and 4th grade. we have a lot of fun together. I love to write songs and am constantly writing SOMETHING 24/7.
I have kept a journal since I was six and store all of my poems and songs in 4 giant binders. The first time I tried to write a song, I was 7. It was for my little sister who was five at the time. Because of the long power-outages she was afraid of the dark so I wrote 2 songs for her. One called No Need, talking about how there's no need to be afraid because God and so many angels are watching us all the time! the other one was called Sleeping Sound in Jesus. (ex: i used to have the utmost dread/as i walked down the hallway,heading to bed)...This one i wrote for my sister in 6th grade, who has recently been complaining that all of my songs are too slow, and don't have a good "beat" to dance to. So this one is a little more of a pop song about someone who doesn't know where their life is going, but trusts that it's in God's Hands. Tell me what you think!!! Enjoy!

VERSE 1

Don’t know what to do

Don’t know where to go

Don’t know who I am

Don’t know what I don’t know

Don’t know what the future holds

Don’t know which path to take

Don’t know if it’s one or both

Don’t know what decisions to make

CHORUS

I wanna make a difference

Oh you know I do

God, It’s all in your hands

I’m giving my everything to you


But what I do know is:

Just ‘cuz I don’t see the bigger picture

Doesn’t mean there’s no plan for my life

Just cuz I don’t know what is to happen

Doesn’t mean God didn’t plan this time

Just cuz I don’t know what is to be

Don’t know God’s plan for me


Doesn’t mean.....

I don’t know anything


Cuz what I do know is:

If I were the only one in the world

Jesus still would come to die

If I were the only person on earth

He still would give his life

CHORUS
I wanna make a difference

Oh you know I do

God, it’s all in your hands

I’m giving my everything to you

God it’s all in your hands

I’m giving my everything to you

you have a gift
by: Danierla

You do have a gift at writing. However, you must make sure, in my opinion that the verses all have similar rhythm. This you can make by checking the number of words you use and check the syllables to make sure they match.
I also realized that your chorus varied. Even though I think a composer sometimes might know how to go about it. Great lyrics!

A Great Purpose in your Life
by: Anonymous

Your song I thought was great---as I always say---polihs it till it shines like I think it can and will----keep up the good writing----only one question---I was always taught you didn't dance to reliogus songs---I was surprised by that you saying your family was in the missionary---guess times have changed
