Bountiful Blessings

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

Waking to the rising sun

Thinking of how it came to be

Praising God endlessly

The touch of a hand

Taking a stand

Are bountiful blessings

Spreading love all around

Knowing what’s lost has been found

Being lead by grace

From place to place

Are bountiful blessings

Falling and rising again

Knowing where to begin

Seeing a mystery unfold

Hearing a story as it’s told

Are bountiful blessings

Embracing the journey along the way

Being grateful for every day

Continuing to learn

Continuing to yearn

Feeling doubt decrease

Feeling positive thoughts increase

Are bountiful blessings

Growing through what you go through

Never letting it get the best of you

Allowing God to be your guide

Taking everything in stride

Are bountiful blessings.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I am

I am the rose that grew from concrete

I am the one that adversity won’t defeat

I am the voice heard praying at night

I am the angel who took flight

I am the one who keeps moving along

I am the one God keeps strong

I am the one who spreads love all around

I am the heart you found

I am the one who was taught to be brave

I am the life God gave

I am the one with an iron will

I am the one God loves still

I am the one who stands tall

I am the one who will answer God’s call

I am the one who will never surrender

I am the one whose soul is tender

I am always striving for more

I know what God has in store

I am able to see clearly

I am one who holds my principles dearly

I am touched by grace

In every place

I am free

It was meant to be

I am learning

I am growing through what I go through

I am living life anew

I am love

Goodbye 2018

Goodbye 2018

It’s been a year filled with ups and downs

A year filled with blessings galore

Seed planting and more

A year filled with praise

During all of our days

Goodbye 2018

It’s been a year of lessons learned

A year of applying lessons to life

Despite occasional strife

A year of recognizing the path laid

A year of recognizing the price we’ve paid

Goodbye 2018

God has lead the way

Each and every day

He has kept us strong

All year long

He will continue to do so

Through all we know

Goodbye 2018

The road has been a long and winding one

We should marvel at the work God has done

He has guided us

He has loved us

He’ll continue to provide

Goodbye 2018

We’ll continue to forge ahead

Pray instead

Take a stand

Hold God’s hand

Goodbye 2018

 

In Another Time And Place

I saw your face in another time and place

Where grace followed us closely

We loved each other hungrily

We held hands while we danced

In another time and place

We held each other near

We held our principles dear

We never lost sight of our love

A love blessed from heaven above

In another time and place

We answered God’s call

We stood tall

We lived

We learned

And we yearned

In another time and place

Our love stood the test of time

We were in our prime

God lead the way

Each and every day

In another time and place

We remained strong

As we moved along

We knew what was meant to be

We prayed endlessly

In another time and place

We finished the race

We took nothing for granted

We watered the seeds planted

In another time and place

Forever More

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

We’ve traveled far and wide

We’ve moved with the ocean’s tide

We’ve laughed and cried together

We’ve endured stormy weather

I know there’s much more in store

I’ll love you forever more

We’ve sorted through chaos and confusion

It’s no illusion

God has lead us by grace

From place to place

I know there’s much more in store

I’ll love you forever more

Our bond will last a life time

It is our destiny

It’s no mystery

We’ll remain strong

As we move along

I know there’s much more in store

I’ll love you forever more

We hold each other near

We hold our principles dear

We’re not alone

We’re guided by the man on the throne

I know there’s much more in store

I’ll love you forever more
