In Your Eyes

There’s love in your eyes

It comes as no surprise

They hold me close

Cause I matter most

They travel far and wide

Their comfort you don’t hide

They’re the journey

Meant for me only

They’re what I gain

Despite heartache and pain

There’s faith in your eyes

They stand still

They accept God’s will

They fill me to the core

Then offer me more

They offer a plan

You reveal when you can

They show the place

Filled with goodness and grace

And they offer peace

I don’t want to release

There’s guidance in your eyes

They follow me everywhere

They show tender loving care

They watch me closely

They love me faithfully

They turn me around

Put me on solid ground

They are the way

I get through each day

And they make my soul rise

As I look in your eyes

My Faith

My faith fills my heart

It gives me a great start

It guides me everyday

Wouldn’t have it any other way

Right or wrong

My faith keeps me strong

It fuels my dreams

Til I burst at the seams

Faith is the path I follow

It never rings hollow

Faith shows a place

Filled with God’s grace

It provides solid ground

No matter who’s around

It gives me strength

When I talk with God at length

It nurses me

It shows what’s meant to be

It’s the blessing I cherish

I know I won’t parish

It takes me far

Without leaving a scar

It makes me bold

It’s something to hold

It was easy to find

It eases my mind

It makes things clear

I hold it dear

My faith

Reasons

During the seasons

We think of reasons

Reasons to thrive

Reasons we’re alive

Reasons to love

Like heaven above

Reasons to pray

Each and every day

Reasons to remain strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

Reasons we smile

Reasons it last awhile

Reasons we don’t fear

How we know God is near

Reasons we grow

Why we share what we know

Reasons we last

Why we remember the past

Reasons we open our hearts

How we know where love starts

Reasons we touch

Why touch means so much

Reasons we are free

What’s meant to be

And we welcome new seasons

For many reasons

Sunrise

At sunrise

I open my eyes

I say a prayer

Cause my God is there

I look at where I’ve been

I cherish way back when

I prepare for the next journey

Cause it’s for me only

I take each lesson with me

I’m where I’m suppose to be

I embrace life in its splendor

My joy I don’t surrender

Each and every sign

Shows me what’s mine

I feel God’s love

Like heaven above

I see my purpose

Rise to the surface

I make clear

What I hold dear

Each and every day

Is special in a way

I think of time

I think of my prime

Then I head home

Where I can roam

And once again

I open my eyes

At sunrise

The Awakening

Awaking every day

Accepting God’s way

Gaining some strength

By talking with Him at length

Falling and rising again

Knowing that you will win

Ignoring your naysayers

Saying your prayers

Counting every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

Knowing where you stand

Holding God’s hand

Taking a long look

Life being an open book

Finding solid ground

No matter who’s around

Believing what you see

Knowing what’s meant to be

Sharing all your dreams

Bursting at the seams

Holding someone close

When it matters most

Lifting your voice

Learning to rejoice

And seeing your purpose

Rise to the surface

Is yours for the taking

And is an awakening

Time And Space

Time and space

Take us to a difference place

They can fill the soul

They can make it whole

They can offer love

As sent by heaven above

They can instantly heal

They can reveal

And they let you see

What’s truly meant to be

Time and space

Can fill you to the core

Make you beg for more

They offer a blessing

Without a lot of stressing

They can take the heart

Show you where to start

They can hold you close

When it matters most

They can produce a smile

That will last awhile

They can turn you around

Make you see what you found

They can be a guide

Fill you with pride

And set the pace

For the next time and space
