When I Look At You

When I look at you

Your love shines through

The moments we share

Let me know you care

I love you more each day

I wouldn’t have it any other way

When I look at you

I see what’s meant to be

You bring out the best in me

One touch of your hand

And life is grand

I have nothing to fear

As long as you’re near

When I look at you

I know there’s nothing I can’t do

What I feel is real

I live it with zeal

We’ve embarked on a journey

Ordained by God only

When I look at you

I have the best of everything

I love the joy you bring

You hold  me close

When I need it most

We have a love

Sent from heaven above

I’m totally secure

I’m absolutely sure

There’s nothing I can’t get through

When I look at you

Dancing With Myself

I’m dancing with myself

There’s nothing I’d rather do

I thank God for what He’s brought me through

He’s the light that guides me

I trust Him completely

I’m in a better place

Due to His guidance and grace

I’m dancing with myself

Nothing pleases me more

God has filled me to the core

I gain strength

Whenever I talk with Him at length

I have no fear

Cause I know He’s near

I’m dancing with myself

As I celebrate lessons learned

They’ve made me better

I love life to the letter

I know where I stand

With one touch of God’s hand

The road is long

But Faith keeps me strong

I’ll make my confessions

During my praise session

The seed has been planted

I take nothing for granted

I can see clearly

Everything I love dearly

While I’m dancing with myself

 

Wandering Stranger

I’m a wandering stranger

Alone in the wilderness

Begging for forgiveness

I have a lot to do

I need to turn my gray skies blue

I’m shaken to the core

I know I deserve more

I’m a wandering stranger

In a place I don’t recognize

Life always takes me by surprise

I endure a lot of pain

To see what I can gain

It’s easy to see

I need to find me

I’m a wandering stranger

Moving here and there

I start with a silent prayer

I spend my days

Trying to change my ways

Hope isn’t gone

I’ll carry on

I’m a wandering stranger

Embarking on a journey

It’s gets  a little lonely

What sets me apart

Is what’s in my heart

I’ll get better as I go

Experience will help me grow

I’ll take a stand

I’ll hold God’s unchanging hand

I’ll find peace

I won’t release

And I’ll cease

Being a wandering stranger

 

In Our Own Way

In our own way

We grow closer every day

We follow God’s lead

And we’re blessed indeed

Our hearts are pure

We feel safe and secure

We share a great deal

And we live it with zeal

In our own way

We face trials and tribulations

Without hesitation

We gain strength

By talking with God at length

We feel a love

Sent from heaven above

We’ll finish our race

With God’s guidance and grace

In our own way

We learn many lessons

We make many confessions

We’re on solid ground

Thanks to the joy we’ve found

Our  journey is something to behold

Our story will be told

We’ll fill each other to the core

Then give each other more

Without a doubt

We’ll work things out

We’ll love each other more each day

In our own way

 

 

Still Here

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve endured heartache and pain

To see what I could gain

I’ve fallen and risen again

But faith showed me where to begin

And I’m still here

Some thought I wouldn’t last long

But prayer has kept me strong

I’ve been scorned

I’ve had my heart torn

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

But I’m still here

I’ve had rough patches along the way

But I get better every day

Sometimes I cry

But I understand why

I’ve learned many lessons

I’ve  made several confessions

And I’m still here

Life has made me who I am

It isn’t a sham

The world will see

The real me

Without fear

I decree and declare

I’m still here
