The River

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

At the river I stand

While praying and holding God’s hand

I reflect and press forward at the same time

I continue my journey while in my prime

I count the blessings granted

And water the seeds planted

At the river I stand

Where God shows me where to go

And teaches me lessons that help me grow

His love is pure

Of that I’m sure

At the river I stand

A place filled with beauty and mystery

Yet I discover what’s meant to be

Prayer keeps me strong

As I move along

At the river I stand

Where miracles unfold

And my story will be told

I’ve found my way

From that path, I’ll never stray

At the river I stand

The place where I prepare for purpose

And everything comes to the surface

I  hold those  things dear

And keep God near

While standing at the river

 

 

 

Praise

Dear God,

I give you praise

You provide light in dark places

You fill empty spaces

You dry every tear

And ease every fear

I thank you for obstacles along the way

They’ve taught me to pray every day

You give me strength when I’m weak

You give life whenever you speak

You’ve carried me through

You’ve shown me what to do

You’ve supplied every need

Your word I’ll heed

I know you’re real

You’ve sealed the deal

You make crooked things straight

Oh God,

You’re great

My voice I raise

As I give you praise

Hello Spring

Hello spring

You are  a new beginning

A new blessing granted

A new seed planted

A solid ground

A new miracle found

Hello spring

You were worth waiting for

A sign that life offers so much more

You are a journey to complete

A new goal to meet

Hello spring

You were worth the wait

You are a reason to be great

Hello spring

In Time

In time

We’ll embark on a journey to the unknown

We’ll thank God for the love He’s shown

Obstacles will come and go

But they’ll help us grow

Our destiny is clear

We’ll hold it near

In time

We’ll fall and rise again

God will show us where to begin

Faith and prayer will keep us strong

As we move along

We’ll cherish every blessing granted

And water the seeds planted

In time

We’ll carry our life lessons with us

And realize that in God we should trust

Miracles will unfold

Our story will be told

In time

We’ll honor what we treasure

Beyond all measure

Our passion for life is true

It’ll carry us through

We’ll hold our heads up with pride

Our gratitude we won’t hide

In time

In Love With You

I saw you walk by

With a twinkle in your eye

One touch was all it took

You hypnotized me with one look

We’ve come a long way together

And endured stormy weather

Without hesitation I say

In a special way

I’m in love with you

You and I hold each other near

Our moments together we hold dear

Our union has been ordained

A great deal we’ve gained

Our life together is a treasure

Beyond all measure

Without hesitation I say

In a special way

I’m in love with you

Our journey has kept us strong

As we’ve moved along

Our hearts are pure

That’s for sure

Nothing will change our destiny

We’re meant to be

Without hesitation I say

In a special way

I’m in love with you
