Together

pexels-photo-196664

We set out on a lover’s journey

Ordained by God only

One look and it was easy to see

It was meant to be

Our life is a blessing granted

Our bond is the seed planted

For even through stormy weather

We’ll remain together

We’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

Yet we remain secure

Because our love is pure

We’ve held strong

While moving along

For even through stormy weather

We’ll remain together

People wonder how we’ve made it through

Our love is true

We honor it with pride

Our feelings we can’t hide

We pray every day

Because God has shown us the way

For even through stormy weather

We’ll remain together

A love like ours is hard to find

It’s a truly special kind

We’re on solid ground

Peace we’ve found

For even through stormy weather

We’ll remain together

Memories

Memories linger in my mind

They’re thoughts of a different kind

They’re thoughts of you

And the things we used to do

These thoughts are pure

These  thoughts make me feel secure

Memories

Things I carry with me every day

Things that never go away

My thoughts of what could be

Thoughts that unveil the mystery

My memories are thoughts that have power

They’re thoughts that occur every hour

Memories

Things that will last forever

Things that will get me through stormy weather

Thoughts that can remain strong

Thoughts that will help me move along

Thoughts that will set things straight

Thoughts that will  make me great

Memories

Thoughts that reflect my reality

Thoughts that should just be

Thoughts that I can’t hide

Thoughts that I hold with pride

Thoughts that are there

Thoughts that I can share

Memories

 

 

Every Time

Every time I need a hand to hold

Every time my story needs to be told

Every time I feel the need

Every time there’s something I should heed

You’re there

Every time I lose my way

Every time I need to pray

Every time I feel insecure

Every time I need something pure

You’re there

You’re a light in dark places

You fill empty spaces

Your love is true

You carry me through

Every time I move

Every time I feel I have something to prove

Every time I’m filled with doubt

Every time I forget what life’s about

You’re there

Every time I forget my purpose

Every time it comes to the surface

Every time I fall

Every time I stall

You’re there

Oh God I cherish your love

It’s sweeter than a dove

It’s a beautiful thing

The joy you bring

My voice I’ll raise

In a song of praise

Every time

Searching

pexels-photo-196664

I’m searching for a way

I’m searching for the right words to say

I’m searching for  peace

I’m searching for release

I’m searching for a guide

I’m searching for a love I can’t hide

I’m searching for solid ground

I’m searching for something that will turn me around

I’m searching for something to keep me strong

I’m searching for something that will last long

I’m searching for something true

I’m searching for something to help me get through

I’m searching for someone I can lean on

I’m searching for something that will remain when I’m gone

I’m searching for a light

I’m searching for something that will make my days bright

I”m searching for a plan

I’m searching for someone to hold my hand

I’m searching for love

I’m searching for heaven above

I’m searching for a purpose

I’ll wait until it comes to the surface

When everything falls into place

I’ll thank God for His guidance and grace

But in the meantime

While I’m in my prime

I’m keep searching

 

Hands Of Time

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

If I could turn back the hands of time

When I was in my prime

I would love you completely

I would make you a priority

But instead of holding your hand

I let you slip away like a grain of sand

If I could turn back the hands of time

I would keep you near

Hold our love dear

Instead I took for granted

The seed God planted

If I could turn back the hands of time

I’d give you a kiss

While in my bliss

I’d enjoy the pleasure

Beyond  measure

My heart would be yours to keep

As I listen to you speak

If I could turn back the hands of time

I’d relish the joy you bring

Above everything

I’d hold you close

Closer than most

Instead I pushed you away

My heart aches for you every day

If only, oh if only

I could turn back the hands of time
