Awakening

I start each day with a prayer

I see signs that God is there

He sends me on my way

He blesses me every day

I take life lessons with me

I’m the best I can be

I accept my flowers

As I count the hours

I’m filled to the core

And I give God more

I continue to grow

As I share what I know

I take nothing for granted

I water the seeds I planted

No matter where I stand

Faith makes my life grand

It gives me purpose

I see it at the surface

Every step I take

Is a memory I can make

I’m on a journey

Ordained by God only

It’s a beautiful thing

And this is my awakening

The Man I Love

The man I love is strong

He knows where I belong

I have no fear

Whenever he’s near

He gives his love

As sent from heaven above

He brightens every day

In a very special way

It’s plain to see

We’re meant to be

The man I love fills my soul

He makes me whole

He holds me close

When I need it most

On a solid rock I stand

As he holds my hand

He makes me smile

And praise God for a while

Tender loving care

Is always there

I’m on solid ground

Thanks to the joy I’ve found

His tender touch

Means so much

And I can’t stop thinking of

The man I love
