Looking Out The Window

I’m looking out the window

Cause it’s all I know

I see the sun and rain

I see what I can gain

I see God’s grace

Splashed all over the place

I see the light

That shines day and night

I see where I stand

As I hold God’s hand

And I see my purpose

Lying at the surface

I’m looking out the window

It helps me learn and grow

It’s very surreal

There’s nothing to conceal

I see the journey

Meant for me only

I see when I fall

And when God answers my call

I see every day

I cherish it in every way

I see a love

Sent from heaven above

And all I know

As I’m looking out the window

Mercy And Grace

Mercy and grace

Are all over the place

It fills every day

In a very special way

It plants seeds

That leads to good deeds

It gives us strength

When we talk to God at length

If fills us to the core

Then offers us more

And it makes us see

What’s truly meant to be

Mercy and grace

Put us in the right space

It holds us near

It removes our fear

It is a light

That shines day and night

It is a journey

Meant for us only

It offers solid ground

No matter who’s around

It comes with love

It comes from heaven above

So yes, mercy and grace

Are all over the place

Transformation

Getting rid of what use to be

Seeing what only God can see

Continuing to forge ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Continuing to grow

As we share what we know

Knowing God is one of a kind

Finally finding peace of mind

Ignoring naysayers

As we say our prayers

Getting stronger

As our days get longer

Embracing what’s meant for us

Knowing in God we trust

Finding solid ground

Sharing the joy we found

Taking the time

To remember our prime

Finding something real

Sharing what the heart can’t conceal

Sitting perfectly still

Accepting God’s will

Cherishing each day

In a special way

Building a foundation

Is a transformation

Still

When obstacles appear

When you’re full of fear

When you forget

When you’re full of regret

And just can’t see

What’s meant to be

When you can’t find

Peace of mind

When you’re down

And can’t turn around

When you don’t see your purpose

Lying at the surface

Be still

God will plant the seed

That will grow into a blessing indeed

When you lose your way

When you cry every day

When the road is long

And you doubt if you’re right or wrong

When you long for a place

Filled with God’s grace

When you’re on your knees

And don’t know who to please

When you need to explore

And you need more

Be still

God will plant the seed

That will grow to a blessing indeed

Secret Place

I’m looking for a secret place

One away from the rat race

Where I can talk to God

Without feeling odd

Smell a few roses

Then strike a few poses

Count every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

Feel something pure

Feel safe and secure

A place to call home

A place where I can roam

I’m looking for a secret place

Something to hold me near

One that will remove my fear

A place to keep me strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

A place that will make me smile

Dance and shout awhile

A place that’s a journey

Meant for me only

One filled with tender loving care

One that I can share

One filled with purpose

And one very large space

A secret place

One Woman

One woman can pray

She can see things God’s way

One woman can be a light

That shines day and night

One woman can love

Like heaven above

Once woman can stand

While holding God’s hand

One woman can rise

She can be wise

Once woman can be blessed

Instead of stressed

One woman can learn

Her stripes she can earn

One woman can see

What’s meant to be

One woman can take a chance

She can do a victory dance

One woman can offer something pure

She can feel safe and secure

One woman can make a day

In her own way

One woman
