In Spite Of

Obstacles appear at every turn

I move diligently

I move swiftly

The wind at my back and grace in my face

In spite of

I fall and rise again

Knowing that with faith I’ll win

I stay in prayer

I know God is there

In spite of

I hold what’s truly important dear

My principles are always near

I feel God’s power

Hour upon hour

In spite of

I follow the path laid

A huge price I’ve paid

I embrace life

Along with it’s strife

In spite of

I never back down

Cause God’s always around

I follow His lead

He hears me when I plead

In spite of

I keep my principles in mind

I continue to grow

Share what I know

In spite of

Pretty Wings

Pretty wings

I see you pretty wings

As you make your way across the sky

You are a wonder to behold

A story to be told

Pretty wings

I see you pretty wings

As you move from place to place

And space to space

You are a beauty to take in

I love the skin you’re in

Pretty wings

I see you pretty wings

You speak life wherever you go

You continue to grow

I bask in your light

A light that burns bright

Pretty wings

I see you pretty wings

You never cease to amaze me

You move gracefully

I love you unconditionally

Pretty wings

I see you pretty wings

As you head to your final destination

‘Without hesitation

Pretty wings

I see you pretty wings

You remain strong

As you move along

You are at the heart of everything good

That should be understood

You are pretty wings

Perseverance

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

Perseverance

What you do when obstacles appear

When you realize that God is near

When you forge ahead

When you pray instead

Perseverance

When you stay the course when things get rough

Knowing that God is the one to trust

That is a must

You can finish the race

At your own pace

Perseverance

When you see that hard work and faith are key

When you see what’s really no mystery

When you know you have a destiny to fulfill

When you know it’s God’s will

Perseverance

When you feel the fire in you belly

When it keeps you awake

When you realize that life is yours to make

When you embrace blessings granted

When you water the seeds planted

Perseverance

When you ignore naysayers

When you realize that your journey is not theirs

When you know what makes you great

When you stand by what you state

 

Everlasting

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

He hears us when we call

He helps us all

He covers us with grace

From place to place

God’s love is everlasting

He guides us along with way

Each and every day

We can feel His power

Hour after hour

God’s love is everlasting

He shows us what’s right

Both day and night

Even when we’re unaware

He’s always there

God’s love is everlasting

Naysayers can say what they will

God is real

He fights our battles

Through thick and thin

With God, we’ll win

God’s love is everlasting

From the morning’s rising

To the evening’s laying down

God is always around

Songs of praise we should sing

Through everything

God’s love is everlasting

Forever Young

I embrace life to the fullest

What’s truly meant for me

Won’t pass by me

I’m covered by grace

I move at my own pace

I’m forever young

I see the dreams God made

I feel them in the shade

Nothing’s too difficult to bear

God is always there

I’m forever young

I’m filled with unspeakable joy

It isn’t a ploy

I embrace the blessings granted

I water the seeds planted

I’m forever young

My destiny will be fulfilled

It’s God’s will

It gives me thrill

I’m forever young

My journey has just begun

I bask in the sun

I sing songs of praise

During all my days

I’m forever young

Fire In The Belly

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

I have a fire in my belly

A flame I can’t douse

It keeps me awake

I have a fire in my belly

A dream that means a great deal

A dream that’s real

Grace follows me along the way

I feel God’s presence every day

I have a fire in my belly

Something I can’t fight

It lights my path

It helps me remain strong

It helps me take a stand

Hold God’s hand

I have a fire in my belly

One that won’t disappear

It remains near and dear

 

The Rose

The rose rises from earth

it’s as pure as a baby at birth

its beauty is a wonder to behold

The rose contains many peddles

on it, dust never settles

it moves freely

it should be loved completely

The rose is strong

shows us where we belong

it represents a dream

that will never lose steam

The rose never breaks down

it’s like a crown

it stands firm

daring to be moved

The rose is full of grace

it stays in place

it’s one of God’s blessings

a true treasure

beyond measure

The rose represents truth

it represents love

from heaven above

When it comes to life

without strife

it begins with the rose
