In God’s Hands

Sometimes we worry

Sometimes we’re in a hurry

Sometimes we live in fear

Not knowing who’s near

We search high and low

For things to help us grow

For we’re unaware of the power

That can be felt hour after hour

Then we see where God stands

With everything in His hands

Sometimes we get lost

Not knowing how much it’ll cost

As we continue our journey

We get a little lonely

As we go through the  day

We see what comes our way

We get on bended knee

So that we can see

Precisely where God stands

With everything in His hands

We endure some pain

Not knowing what we’ll gain

Sometimes we’re unsure

Sometimes we feel insecure

We search for peace of mind

Something hard to find

Then we turn around

As we reach solid ground

We see where God stands

With everything in His hands

A Day With God

A day with God

Is heaven on earth

That’s what He’s worth

He leads the way

Come what may

He gives peace of mind

Which is hard to find

We know where we stand

With one touch of His hand

A day with God

Is a blessing indeed

It’s the way we succeed

He sets the tone

He’ll never leave us alone

Right or wrong

He’ll keep us strong

He shares his love

As sent from heaven above

We’ll land on solid ground

Cause we know what we’ve found

In a loud voice

We’ll rejoice

Cause it isn’t odd

To spend a day with God

Joy And Pain

My heart feels joy and pain

I see what I can gain

I go through the fire

To obtain what I desire

I learn along the way

And I pray every day

It may seem strange

But my path only God can change

I feel joy and pain

I see the purpose for the rain

Challenges come and go

But challenges help me grow

I fall and rise again

But faith helps me win

I know where I stand

I’ll hold God’s unchanging hand

I feel joy and pain

No need to explain

It’s part of life

God will remove the strife

He’s always  there

With tender, loving care

His guidance and grace

Will take me to a better place

My voice I’ll raise

In a song of praise

For the rest of my days

As I embrace what I gain

Through the joy and pain

In Your Own Way

In your own way

You brighten my day

You hold my hand

You understand

You share your love

Which feels like heaven above

The things we share

Are so very rare

Your heart is pure

You make me feel secure

In your own way

You show me what’s real

Now I live it with zeal

Every day is a journey

Ordained by God only

With you I’m free

Just as I should be

You are my guide

My gratitude I can’t hide

You never pretend

You are my friend

You fill me to the core

I want to give you more

The things you do

Carry me through

Nothing more to say

You do them in your own way

End Of The Road

We started a journey

Planned by God only

We didn’t have a care

We had so much to share

We held hands

As we made plans

But we got lost

We didn’t know at what cost

We can’t pretend

We’ve reached

The end of the road

Our hearts and souls came together

We thought we’d last forever

As strange as it seems

We shared many dreams

Nothing could have been better

We loved each other to the letter

We took each other in

God showed us where to begin

And now we can’t pretend

We’ve reached

The end of the road

Our love was sweeter than morning dew

We thought it would carry us through

We knew it was real

We lived it with zeal

God planted the seed

We should have taken heed

It didn’t take long

For things to go wrong

Now we can’t pretend

We’ve reached

The end of the road

Thankful

As I reflect on this day

I want to say

I’m thankful

Thankful for blessings granted

And for the seeds God planted

He’s been present for sure

He makes me feel secure

He dries every tear

And eases every fear

It’s plain to see

He brings out the best in me

I’m thankful for life lessons

That come after confessions

Right or wrong

They keep me strong

I carry them everywhere

Cause I know God is there

I’m thankful for life

As I deal with strife

I gain strength

By talking with God at length

I feel His power

Hour after hour

That’ll all I know

It helps me grow

I’ll go to my grave

Cherishing the love He gave

And in a loud voice

I’ll rejoice

Because I’m thankful

Nick Of Time

The clock ticks consistently

And it’s no mystery

As I embark on my journey

I get a little lonely

As I continue on my way

I pray every day

I never know what I’ll find

I just want peace of mind

Suddenly, while in my prime

God arrives in the nick of time

I stumble here and there

As I search for someone to care

No one’s around

As I search for solid ground

I long to hear a reassuring voice

As I make my choice

I look in the mirror

Then everything becomes clearer

While in my prime

God appears in the nick of time
