Blue Skies

Blue skies fill our eyes

We see them everywhere

Along with tender loving care

We see what we’ll gain

After heartache and pain

The skies fill every day

In a very special way

They fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

They provide solid ground

As we share the joy we found

They take us far

As we reach for a star

They are a place

Filled with guidance and grace

They give us time

To remember our prime

They make us smile

The smile last awhile

The skies stand

As we hold God’s hand

They make us rejoice

When we hear God’s voice

Blue skies help us grow

As we share what we know

They carry us through

No matter what we do

They are the power

We feel hour after hour

They show a new beginning

As we keep winning

They reveal what’s real

Things too difficult to conceal

They open our eyes

Blue skies

Waiting

I’m waiting for the world to change

So it won’t feel strange

I’m waiting for what I’ll gain

When God eases my pain

I’m waiting for the plan

He’ll reveal when He can

I’m waiting for love

That comes from heaven above

I’m waiting for the peace

I know I won’t release

I’m waiting for a day

I’ll cherish in every way

I’m waiting for something pure

So I’ll feel safe and secure

I’m waiting for a place

Filled with guidance and grace

I’m waiting for a smile

That will last awhile

I’m waiting for solid ground

I’ll share the joy I found

I’m waiting for a second chance

I’ll do a victory dance

I’m waiting for the pride

My heart won’t let me hide

I’m waiting for the power

I’ll feel hour after hour

I’m waiting

Joy

We feel joy inside

It’s something we can’t hide

It fills our days

In so many ways

God planted the seed

To this blessing indeed

We’ve learned to smile

Our smile last quite awhile

We’re on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We don’t feel the same

We know our name

No matter what we do

God carries us through

We travel far

As we reach for a star

Get keeps us close

To what we desire most

We see what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

Our lives are golden

To God we’re beholden

He reveals His plan

Every way He can

We share our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

They mean more than some know

We’ll never let them go

We share the joy we feel

Cause we know it’s real

We have affection

And plenty of protection

God is always there

With tender loving care

We set our own pace

As we run our race

It fills our soul

It makes us whole

We let go of the tears

As well as the fears

And here comes our joy

Beautiful Mind

The beautiful mind

Is one of a kind

It remembers God

With a wink and nod

It spreads to the heart and soul

It makes life whole

It thinks of dreams

Until it burst at the seams

It fills the core

With positive thoughts and more

It sits still

As it accepts God’s will

It travels far

Without leaving a scar

It looks ahead

Without an ounce of dread

It works every day

In a very special way

And it stays free

Cause it’s meant to be

The beautiful mind is pure

It feels safe and secure

It always grows

As it shares what it knows

It provides peace

Too difficult to release

And it follows the light

It sees day and night

The beautiful mind

Solid Ground

We’ve been through the fire

Right down to the wire

Looking for our name

We hung our heads in shame

We’ve gotten lost

At a very high cost

We held on to fear

No knowing God was near

We’ve lived every day

In our own way

Not knowing what would be

It was difficult to see

Where we belong

Whether we’re right or wrong

But we finally found

Solid ground

We’ve faced naysayers

While saying our prayers

We maintained our pace

While running our race

We stumbled during our journey

But it was for us only

We learned to let go

Of what we used to know

We rose time after time

While still in our prime

We let go of regret

We give as good as we get

We learned to smile

And the smile last a while

We began to heal

It was difficult to conceal

We had some doubt

But God worked things out

Everything’s set in stone

God won’t leave us alone

Through heartache and pain

We know what we’ll gain

Cause we’ve finally found

Solid ground

Free

We live day to day

God leads the way

He offers something pure

He makes us feel secure

We learn to love

Like heaven above

We sit still

As we accept God’s will

We stand and rejoice

When we hear God’s voice

Every moment is golden

To God we’re beholden

The moments we share

Show how much we care

Every sweet smile

Last quite awhile

Every wonderful chapter

Is filled with joy and laugther

We have no fear

Cause God almighty is near

We’ve found a place

Filled with guidance and grace

God turned us around

Put us on solid ground

It’s easy to see

We’ll always be

Free
