Return

Today I return to what makes me smile

I return to praying awhile

Today I return to the purpose

I saw lying at the surface

The unconditional love

I saw in heaven above

I return to the peace

That I don’t want to release

The God given journey

Meant for me only

I return to what fills my soul

And makes me whole

What I really feel

What my heart will never conceal

I return to the solid ground

I find when no one is around

The brand-new day

I cherish in every way

The beating heart

That shows me where to start

The beautiful voice

That makes me rejoice

I return

Every Time

Every time I reach for you

Every time I think of morning dew

Every time I need a hand

Every time I need to stand

You’re right there

Every time I fall

Every time I go through it all

Every time I let go of fear

Every time I hold a dream near

You’re right there

Every time I see a light

Every time I gain a little might

Every time I see

What’s meant to be

You’re right there

Every time I pray

Every time I face a new day

Every time I embrace a journey

Meant for me only

You’re right there

Every time I reach solid ground

Every time I share the joy I found

Every time I count a blessing

Without a lot of stressing

You’re right there

Every time I embrace life

Every time I make it through strife

Every time I feel a touch

That means so much

You’re right there

On The Inside

I feel an unconditional love

Like heaven above

On the inside

I feel peace

That I don’t want to release

And I gain strength

After talking with God at length

On the inside

I feel my heartbeat

I feel every moment so sweet

I count every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

I feel a loving touch

That means so much

On the inside

I feel the journey

Meant for me only

I feel my purpose

Lying at the surface

I feel the dreams

That make me burst at the seams

On the inside

In My Dreams

The nights are long

My feelings are strong

I can’t deny

Nor can I ask why

I love you through and through

That’s all I want to do

It’s a blessing indeed

It helps me succeed

I feel a love

Sent by heaven above

And it seems

I always see you

In my dreams

I think of you

And all you do

It makes me reveal

What my heart can’t conceal

As I fall asleep

My thoughts make me weep

I see your smile

It last awhile

I imagine holding you close

Cause that matters most

I can see

We’re meant to be

That won’t change

It doesn’t seem strange

That it seems

I always see you

In my dreams

The Way Home

On the way home

I think of blessings granted

The seeds I’ve planted

My one true love

Looking at heaven above

A very special place

Filled with God’s grace

How I cherish every day

In my own special way

Things that make me smile

How that smile last awhile

On the way home

I feel God’s power

Hour after hour

I think of falling and rising again

And how faith helped me win

I think of what’s pure

And what makes me feel secure

I think of my second chance

As I do a victory dance

I think of what’s real

And what my heart can’t conceal

I think of my beating heart

And where love should start

I think of how my soul should roam

On the way home

Warm Embrace

We sat in a warm embrace

It was a special place

We shared our joy and pain

Cause we knew what we’d gain

We shared our dreams

Then burst at the seams

The seed was planted

A blessing was granted

We knew right away

It was a new day

And we relished what we found

On pure and sacred ground

We sat in a warm embrace

It felt so real

It was something we couldn’t conceal

We went the distance

Without a lot of resistance

We held each other close

Cause love mattered most

We saw what was true

It felt like morning dew

Every step we took

Was placed in our memory book

Those moments were one of a kind

Faith offers peace of mind

And we visited a place

As we sat in a warm embrace
