A Quiet Place

I awaken each day

Wondering if I’ll make it through

I see my trials in plain view

I endure the pain

To see what I’ll gain

I often cry

As I wonder why

Then as I look in the mirror

It all becomes clearer

There is a quiet place

Where I can meet God face to face

He’s one of a kind

He eases my mind

I face more than one realizes

I’m always greeted with surprises

I stumble and fall

But God hears me when I call

I dodge life’s darts along the way

I see the price I have to pay

Whenever I reach a breaking point

All I have to do is point

To a quiet place

Where God comforts me

There’s no place I’d rather be

With one touch of His hand

I know where I stand

My heart is pure

That’s for sure

As I run my race

I’ll always think of a quiet place

Every Day

Every day I pray

Every day a blessing comes my way

Every day I gain strength

By talking with God at length

Every day I relinquish doubt

I learn what life is about

Every day I share my love

It was sent from heaven above

Every day God makes it clear

He’s always near

Every day I see

Faith brings out the best in me

I water a seed

And watch it grow indeed

Every day I rise

My resilience takes some by surprise

I know I’ll go far

By reaching for a star

Every day brings something new

I change my point of view

Every day I feel my own power

Hour upon hour

Every day I stand on solid ground

I cherish the joy I’ve found

Every day I learn from the past

I make every moment last

Every day I embrace my purpose

As it comes to the surface

It’s God’s will

He loves me still

I’ll continue to pray

On the right path I’ll stay

Every day

Slowly

Slowly I awaken to the rising sun

I see all that nature has done

As I bow my head in prayer

I sense that God is there

He gives me everything I need

That’s a blessing indeed

Everyone can see

He brings out the best in me

Slowly I venture out

I see what life is about

I learn many lessons along the way

I express gratitude every day

God is my guide

A fact I won’t hide

Yes, it’s true

I see what God brought me through

Slowly I see His plan

I feel it in the palm of His hand

His love is pure

He makes me feel secure

I take nothing for granted

The seeds have been planted

I’ve come to know my own power

I feel it hour upon hour

Slowly I draw the conclusion

That God isn’t an illusion

He turned me around

Put me on solid ground

Let me be clear

I love having Him near

He strengthens me when I’m weak

I listen when I hear Him speak

Nothing can compare

To what we share

I’m far from wholly

But I continue to grow slowly

In Your Arms

In your arms

I find true love

Sent from heaven above

You give me peace

Peace that I won’t release

You offer purity

And a lot of security

You fill me to the core

I want to give you more

In your arms

I find everything I need

You’re a blessing indeed

We’ve embarked on a journey

Ordained by God only

I gain strength

Whenever we talk at length

I love you more each day

I wouldn’t have it any other way

In your arms

I find everything the eye can see

You bring out the best in me

It should be clear

I love having you near

You make my heart sing

With the joy you bring

As we take a stance

In preparation for a lovers dance

I confess that life is grand in your arms

Between You And Me

Between you and me

Lies all the love there’ll ever be

We fill each other to the core

Then give each other more

It’s paradise in the making

And it’s ours for the taking

Between you and me

Lies all the joy a heart can know

Our experiences help us grow

Our hearts are pure

We feel secure

God planted the seed

So let’s take heed

Between you and me

Lies a lot of peace

Peace we won’t release

We cherish our love

It was sent from heaven above

We’re in a better place

Due to God’s guidance and grace

Between you and me

Lies all the things we’ve shared

And the dreams we’ve dared

We take nothing for granted

Our views aren’t slanted

God made His will clear

And we hold it dear

Between you and me

Faith is the key

We’ve weathered a lot of storms

And broken a lot of norms

We’ve learned from the past

We make every moment last

Our voices we’ll raise

In a song of praise

For what lies between you and me
