Piece Of My Heart

A piece of my heart

Is an important part

Of each day

I wouldn’t have it any other way

A piece beats fast

A piece remembers the past

A piece certainly knows

How and where love grows

A piece takes time

To remember my prime

A piece of my heart

Is where I always start

A piece goes everywhere

A piece shows I care

A piece plants seeds

That become good deeds

A piece relishes a place

Filled with guidance and grace

A piece travels far

Without leaving a scar

A piece shares love

As sent by heaven above

A piece knows what’s true

It can change my point of view

A piece can thrive

A piece can survive

And I know where to start

With a piece of my heart

Mama’s Hands

Mama’s hands held me close

Mama’s hands touched me more than most

Mama’s hands were filled with love

Mama’s hands felt like heaven above

Mama’s hands were filled with glory

Mama’s hands told a story

Mama’s hands were warm and free

Mama’s hands brought out the best in me

Mama’s hands traveled far

Mama’s hands said

Don’t be afraid to be who you are

Mama’s hands taught me lessons

Those lessons became confessions

Mama’s hands found solid ground

Mama’s hands turned me around

Mama’s hands held a guiding light

Mama’s hands told me what was right

Mama’s hands let go of fear

Mama’s hands knew when God was near

Mama’s hands were a treasure

Mama’s hands loved beyond measure

Mama’s hands found purpose

Lying at the surface

Mama’s hands took time

To remember her prime

Mama’s hands said learn from the past

Mama’s hands said make every moment last

Mama’s hands had raw power

I felt it hour after hour

Mama’s hands knew what’s true

They changed her point of view

Mama’s hands

Broken Dreams

Broken dreams

Often burst at the seams

They show the things

Life often brings

They show the soul lying there

They show the soul God will repair

They show the long winding journey

And what can be done by God only

They show falling again and again

They show how to win

They show what to ignore

And how God will fill you to the core

Broken dreams

Often burst at the seams

They let go

Of what you used to know

They come at night

Before God makes things right

They become lessons

That turn into confessions

They scream out loud

They can make you proud

They come your way

Each and every day

They tend to last

And make you remember the past

They show a stance

Taken before first glance

Yes, broken dreams

Burst at the seams

Flying High

I’m flying high

On the wings of love

It feels like heaven above

I wake every day

To your heart coming my way

You fill me to the core

I want to give you more

The world can see

We’re meant to be

And you are the treasure

I cherish beyond measure

I’m flying high

No need to ask why

One touch of your hand

Lets me know where you stand

The love I feel

I just can’t conceal

God planted the seed

It’s a blessing indeed

And every step we take

Is a memory we can make

I’m flying high

That much I know

Your love helped me grow

You hold me close

When it matters most

The sound of your voice

Makes me rejoice

Nothing can compare

To the bond we share

Winter, spring, summer, fall

You’re there when I call

Every moment with you

Thrills me through in through

And no one has to ask why

I’m flying high

Forever Young

As we reflect on the past

Our memories are built to last

We embarked on a journey

Meant for us only

The moments we’ve shared

And the dreams we’ve dared

Are stamped on our hearts

Where love always starts

We’re shared several years

Along with blood, sweat and tears

Right or wrong

Faith has kept us strong

God has led the way

He’s present every day

And we are

Forever young

We cherish everything

We see the joy life can bring

We know what’s true

We’ve changed our point of view

We looked around

Then found solid ground

Now we’re in a place

Filled with God’s grace

We wear a smile

That last a while

Despite our age

We’ve turned the page

Love is warm and pure

We feel safe and secure

And we’re forever young
