As Time Goes By

As time goes by

We cherish every day

We love in every way

We embrace the time

Well beyond our prime

We let go of fear

Cause God almighty is near

We feel the touch

That means so much

We get stronger

As our journey gets longer

We learn what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

And we learn from the past

While making every moment last

As time goes by

We feel God’s affection

As well as protection

We plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

We see every soul

We see what makes life whole

We begin to rejoice

When we hear God’s voice

We fall and rise again

God shows us how to win

We begin to grow

As we share what we know

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

We learn to give

We learn to live

We learn to love

Just like heaven above

We find something pure

It makes us feel secure

Every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

God fills our cup

He lifts us up

And we don’t wonder why

As time goes by

Back In The Day

Back in the day

We loved in every way

We shared every dream

Strange though it may seem

We strengthened our bond

From here and beyond

We embraced every journey

Meant for us only

We looked ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Many lessons we learned

Many stripes we earned

And we found perfect peace

We’ll never release

Back in the day

We were filled to the core

Before God offered us more

We found solid ground

We turned our lives around

We began to see

We were meant to be

We saw our purpose

Rise to the surface

We learn to let go

Of things we used to know

We learned to sit still

Then accept God’s will

We counted every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

We had a hand to hold

An amazing story was told

We held each other near

We held our love dear

We saw what was in stone

God never left us alone

We looked at our hearts

Saw that’s where love starts

And we found our way

Back in the day

Whispers In The Wind

We hear whispers in the wind

Telling us where to begin

It’s the silent prayer

Showing God is there

It’s the soft touch

That means so much

It’s something pure

It makes us feel secure

It shows what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

It rests in the pace

Filled with mercy and grace

It’s the journey

Meant for us only

We hear whispers in the wind

Telling us where to go

How to share what we know

How to stay strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

Telling us how to live

Telling us how to give

Telling us how to love

Just like heaven above

We hear whispers in the wind

The Giver

The giver shares his heart

Right from the start

He shares the love

Sent from heaven above

He shares peace

We’ll never release

He shares the word

That’s the best we’ve heard

He gives the power

We feel hour after hour

He shares the light

We follow day and night

He shares the solid ground

As well as the joy we found

He shares the place

Filled with mercy and grace

He shares what’s pure

And makes us feel secure

He shares a prayer

That shows God is there

He shares what he knows

As our bond grows

He knows how to deliver

The giver

Sunrise

Waking to morning dew

Knowing God will carry us through

Preparing for a new day

Learning to accept God’s way

Counting blessings as we go

Sharing everything we know

Ignoring our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Getting filled to the core

With what’s hard to ignore

Learning during the journey

Meant for us only

Feeling the love

Coming from heaven above

Moving right along

Cause faith keeps us strong

Holding God’s hand

Right where we stand

Feeling our own power

Hour after hour

Sharing the lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

Making very clear

What we hold dear

Lifting one voice

As we begin to rejoice

Getting a chance

To do a victory dance

Knowing what we hold

And our story will be told

Letting go of regret

Giving as good as we get

Seeing what’s in stone

Knowing we’re not alone

Planting the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Standing on solid ground

Sharing the joy we found

Seeing every surprise

At sunrise

Sentimental

Thinking of wonderful days

Loving you in many ways

Taking the time

To remember our prime

Feeling the love

Coming from heaven above

Counting blessings galore

Getting filled to the core

Cherishing a journey

Meant for us only

Learning from the past

Making every moment last

Simply letting go

Of things we used to know

Making crystal clear

What we hold dear

Holding each other close

Cause our bond matters most

Learning to see

What’s truly meant to be

Lifting every voice

As we begin to rejoice

Finding a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Looking over the years

Remembering who dried our tears

Learning to sit still

As we accept God’s will

Remembering what we hold

Hearing our story being told

Following a light

That shines day and night

Keeping faith near by

Without asking why

Giving as good as we get

With very little regret

Looking in our hearts

Right where love starts

Seeing things change

Knowing it isn’t strange

Remembering who we are

As we reach for a star

God filling the soul

With what makes us whole

Learning to win

Until we do it all again
