Still Standing

We’ve faced difficult days

While embracing God’s loving ways

We’ve grappled with fear

Before seeing God standing near

We’ve felt weak

Until we heard God speak

We searched high and low

For what will help us grow

Before God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We’ve faced the enemy

While God revealed what’s meant to be

We’ve felt ashamed

We’ve been defamed

We’ve been scorned

We’ve had our hearts torn

We’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

Until God turned us around

Put us on solid ground

We’ve searched for purpose

Before it rose to the surface

We’ve dealt with stress and strain

Heartache and pain

We had a safe landing

We’re still standing

We’ve searched for a safe space

Before finding mercy and grace

We’ve fallen then risen again

Knowing faith helped us win

Others have doubted us

In God we trust

We’ve learned to stand

While holding God’s hand

We’ve faced our naysayers

While saying our prayers

We’ve lost our voice

Before beginning to rejoice

We’ve felt unsure

We’ve felt insecure

Before God gave us wings

Then showed us beautiful things

We’ve done a victory dance

To celebrate our second chance

We’ve forgotten how to dream

Strange though it may seem

Before we had a soft landing

We’re still standing

Love

Love

It comes from heaven above

It fills all our days

Along with God’s loving ways

It is the divine purpose

We see lying at the surface

It gives us strength

As we talk at length

It heals the soul

It makes life whole

It lifts us up

It fills every cup

It shares every journey

Meant just for us only

It turns us around

It offers solid ground

It makes us smile

Even laugh a little while

It helps us stand

As we hold God’s hand

It’s something pure

It makes us feel secure

And we feel its power

Hour after hour

Love

It’s something real

Something we can’t conceal

It fills every space

As we move from place to place

It fills the home

Where every soul can roam

It wipes our tears

It removes our fears

It makes us feel brand new

When we see what God can do

It gives us peace

Our hearts won’t release

It faces every enemy

It reveals what’s meant to be

It gives us pleasure

Beyond all measure

It delivers the word

We’ve always heard

It plants seeds

That lead to good deeds

It fills every chapter

With joy and laughter

We are a hand and glove

We feel nothing but love

Ode To Jesus

He fills all our days

With His loving ways

He provides a home

Where every soul can roam

He offers strength

When we talk with Him at length

He reveals our purpose

Before it rises to the surface

He fights every enemy

He reveals what’s meant to be

He lifts us up

He fills every cup

He ordains every journey

Meant just for us only

He catches us when we fall

He answers every call

He gives us pleasure

Beyond all measure

He reveals what’s in stone

He never leaves us alone

He makes us smile

Even laugh a little while

He gives us peace

Our hearts won’t release

He gives us a place

Filled with mercy and grace

He is the light

We follow day and night

He heals every soul

He makes life whole

He provides the word

We’ve always heard

He fills our core

Before He offers us more

He removes all doubt

That things will work out

He sees us through every storm

He helps us break every norm

He teaches us how to live

He teaches us how to give

He teaches us how to love

Just like heaven above

He sets our path

Without unleashing His wrath

He helps us stand

As we hold His hand

He doesn’t pretend

Cause His love will never end

Seeds Of Love

We’re planting seeds of love

As we look at heaven above

We’ll water the seeds

They’ll lead to good deeds

We’ll hold each other close

Like love matters most

We’ll hold God’s hand

Right where we stand

We’ll watch our love grow

We’ll share what we know

We’ll do a love dance

To celebrate our romance

Every moment will be real

Too difficult to conceal

We’ll have something pure

Faith will make us secure

We’ll stay in prayer

God will be there

We’ll share a journey

Meant just for two only

We’ll build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We’ll live in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We’re planting seeds of love

We’ll fit like a hand and glove

We’ll break into a smile

Even laugh a little while

We’ll enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We’ll fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

We’ll see life lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

We’ll learn how to live

We’ll learn how to give

We’ll find our purpose

Lying at the surface

God will fill our core

Before He offers us more

We’ll feel His power

Hour after hour

Love will stay with us

In God we’ll trust

We’ll feel brand new

When we see what God can do

We’ll look at heaven above

While planting seeds of love
