Be Grateful

Be grateful for the love

That comes from heaven above

Be grateful for the peace

That you’ll never release

Be grateful for God’s plan

Which He’ll reveal when He can

Be grateful for life lessons

That become confessions

Be grateful for solid ground

And turning your life around

Be grateful for the special place

Filled with guidance and grace

Be grateful for what keeps you strong

Whether you’re right or wrong

Be grateful for letting go

Of things you used to know

Be grateful for time

And remembering your prime

Be grateful for the journey

Meant for you only

Be grateful for the prayer

That shows God is always there

Be grateful for little things

And the joy life brings

Be grateful for the touch

That means so much

Be grateful for letting go of fear

And holding God near

Be grateful for falling and rising again

Learning to win

Be grateful for the voice

That makes you rejoice

Be grateful for learning to grow

And sharing what you know

Be grateful for a new chapter

And joy and laughter

Be grateful

One Moment

One moment away

One moment to pray

One moment to share

One moment to care

One moment to love

One moment to see heaven above

One moment to stand

One moment so grand

One moment to desire

One moment full of fire

One moment of peace

We’ll never release

One moment to recall

One moment means all

One moment to behold

One hand to hold

One moment to rejoice

One moment with a choice

One moment to take

One memory to make

One moment to go

One thing we know

One moment to sing

One moment life will bring

One moment to cherish

One moment we won’t parish

One moment

To Be

To be loved for sure

Is to find something pure

To be guided every day

Is to accept God’s way

To be strong

Is to pray all day long

To be real

Is to show what you can’t conceal

To be a kind voice

Is to learn to rejoice

To be filled to the core

Is to love God more

To be in a zone

Is to know you’re not alone

To be ever so kind

Is to find peace of mind

To be so true

Is to know what God can do

To be very clear

Is to know God is near

To be protected

Is to not be rejected

To be sane

Is to know faith won’t wane

To be standing tall

Is knowing God answers every call

To be free

Is to know what’s meant to be

To be still

Is to accept God’s will

To be proud

Is to shout out loud

To be where you are

Means you’ve traveled far

To be saved

Is to know the road God paved

To be grateful for everything

Is to share the joy life can bring

To be

Trust

Trust in God

With a wink and nod

Trust in His word

It’s the best you’ve heard

Learn to sit still

As you accept His will

Trust in the grace

You find in a special place

Trust in the love

That comes from heaven above

Trust the purpose

You see lying at the surface

Trust your beating heart

It’s a good place to start

Trust in the prayer

That shows God is there

Trust the perfect way

To cherish every day

Trust the time

To remember your prime

Trust your journey

It’s made for you only

Trust your own voice

Use it to rejoice

Trust your second chance

Do a victory dance

Trust your solid ground

Share the joy you found

Trust
