Every eye is on me, and my breathe hitches. Panic rises in my chest, and my heart starts beating incredibly fast, and then I see Lucas. His eyes are glued to mine, his mouth is in a wide smile, and my body instantly relaxes.

Bless the Lord, Oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, Oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning

It's time to sing your song again

Whatever may pass and whatever lies before me

Let me be singing when the evening comes

Bless the Lord, Oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, Oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

You're rich in love and you're slow to anger

Your name is great and your heart is kind

For all your goodness, I will keep on singing

Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

Bless the Lord, Oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, Oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

Bless the lord, oh my soul

Oh my soul, Worship his holy name

Sing like never before, oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

And on that day when my strength is failing

The end draws near and my time has come

Still my soul will sing your praise unending

Ten thousand years and then forevermore

Forevermore

Bless the Lord, Oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, Oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

Bless the lord, oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

Bless the lord, oh my soul

Oh my soul, worship his holy name

Sing like never before, oh my soul

I'll worship your holy name

The song goes by quickly, I feel the best I have in a really long time, and its over before I know it. When I sing the last lyric, the whole church is quiet, I look around worried, and they all start clapping. I thank everyone, and quickly sit back down.

"That was truly amazing, and I think I speak for everyone when I say it was moving, thank you Maya" The paster says, making me blush. When it's time to leave, everyone stops me, they tell me how great I was, they ask if I want a career in music, and they're just truly nice.

"You were amazing" Someone says I turn around, and a woman with beautiful red hair is smiling at me.

"Thank you" I tell her, she extended her hand, and I take it
