Dear lover,

It’s been a while since we met

You give as good as you get

Our trials come and go

But we continue to grow

You fill me to the core

I want to give you more

The moments we share

Let me know you care

God planted the seed

So let’s take heed

Ours is a love

Sent from heaven above

One thing is clear

I love having you near

You’re one of a kind

You ease my mind

One touch of your hand

And I know where I stand

Many wonder what I see in you

You’re sweeter than morning dew

We’ve embarked on a journey

Ordained by God only

Despite the past

We’ll make every moment last

Let’s keep going

Let’s keep growing

Dear lover

God is bigger than your anxieties and fears. Pray, trust and keep moving. God’s got you.

Over the years

I’ve shed a lot of tears

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve been scorned

Had my heart torn

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

But I have to say

In my own way

God’s been there

Through it all

I fall and rise again

Faith helps me win

Naysayers don’t get me down

Prayer keeps me on solid ground

Some thought I wouldn’t last

I’ve learned from the past

Experience is all I know

It’s helped me grow

I have to say

In my own way

God’s been there

Through it all

I face what each day brings

That entails a lot of things

I feel God’s power

Hour upon hour

By God’s grace

I’m in the right place

I have to say

In my own way

God’s been there

Through it all

God already marked it in your calendar. Your time is coming. Freedom, victory and blessings are in your future.

We’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

We’ve laughed and cried

Our trials and triumphs we won’t hide

The moments we’ve shared

The dreams we’ve dared

Are all we know

They’ve helped us grow

Some thought we wouldn’t last

But we learned from the past

The road has been long

But faith has kept us strong

It’s easy to see

We’re meant to be

God planted the seed

So we took heed

We fall and rise again

But God helps us win

With one touch of His hand

We know where we stand

We feel His power

Hour upon hour

It’s hard to ignore

He’s filled us to the core

Each day brings

So many things

But we’ll always be together

Always celebrate an achievement no matter how large or small.

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve gone through tribulations

And faced various situations

I’ve dealt with obstacles

Before I saw what was possible

But I’m grateful

And I know God is faithful

I’ve been scorned

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

I’ve dealt with the the pain

Cause I knew what I would gain

Faith turned me around

Put me on solid ground

I’m grateful

And I know  God is faithful

At times I’ve had to weep

Silence I couldn’t keep

Suddenly I gained strength

As I talked with God at length

As I held His hand

He knew what I could stand

I’m grateful

And I know God is faithful

Stop trying to figure everything out and trust God that He has already worked it out!

Happy birthday Dr. King

With the palm of your hand

You spread love across the land

Without stalling

You answered your calling

With all your might

You fought for what was right

You ignored naysayers

You said your prayers

The journey was long

But faith kept you strong

It was about a plan

For your fellow man

Without remorse

You stayed on course

Until the fateful day

You had to go away

There’s work to do

But God will carry us through

We miss your warm embrace

But we know you’re in a better place

What you left behind means everything

Happy birthday Dr. King

Stay on course. You’re closer than you think.
