Living In Truth

Facing every day

As God leads the way

Seeing what we’ll face

As we run our race

Leaning on God as we go

Sharing what we know

Learning life lessons

That turn to heartfelt confessions

Learning to stand strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

Ignoring our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Seeing what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Accepting a word

That’s the best we’ve heard

Facing every trial

Laughing a little while

Remembering who we are

As we reach for a star

Finding something pure

Feeling safe and secure

God filling our cup

Never giving up

Taking one moment at a time

While still in our prime

Finding a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Finding solid ground

Sharing the joy we found

Facing every storm

Defying every norm

Speaking with one voice

As we begin to rejoice

Learning to love

Just like heaven above

Doing what we must

Cause in God we trust

Cherishing what we find

Relishing peace of mind

Doing a victory dance

Whenever we get a chance

Starting a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Embracing every journey

Meant for us only

As we share dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Yesterday

Yesterday

Everything seemed far away

I couldn’t hide my smile

I even laughed a little while

I felt God’s unconditional love

As it came from heaven above

I ran my race

At my own pace

God kept me close

Cause bonding matters most

I found my purpose

Lying at the surface

I ignored my naysayers

As I said my prayers

And I left the pass behind

As I cleared my mind

Yesterday

I knew where I wanted to be

What’s real was easy to see

I continued the journey

Meant for me only

I learned all I could

More than I thought I would

I reached my peak

As I heard God speak

I saw what I’d gain

Through heartache and pain

I tasted something sweet

Where God and I meet

I heard a word

That’s the best I’ve heard

I felt God’s affection

As well as protection

I found a place

Filled with mercy and grace

I did a victory dance

During my second chance

Things were set in stone

I knew I wasn’t alone

I learned to sit still

As I accepted God’s will

I found something pure

I felt safe and secure

I truly found my way

Yesterday

Gentle Thoughts

Thinking of the love

Coming from heaven above

Thinking of a tender touch

That means so much

Thinking of the peace

The heart won’t release

Thinking of God’s power

Hour after hour

Thinking of you

And all the things you do

Thinking of God’s word

It’s the best we’ve  heard

Thinking of what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

Thinking of the test

We’ll past like all the rest

Thinking of what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Thinking of solid ground

How we turned our lives around

Thinking of a safe space

Filled with mercy and grace

Thinking of blessings galore

How God offers much more

Thinking of time

What we did during our prime

Thinking of our story

And all God’s glory

Thinking of the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Thinking of dreams

What makes us burst at the seams

Knowing we can’t pretend

We’ll think until the end

Moments Of Pleasure

People holding hands

Right where love stands

God paving the way

To a much brighter day

Relishing the touch

That means so much

Doing a love dance

God offering a second chance

Living in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

God offering a word

That’s the best we’ve heard

Finding something pure

Feeling safe and secure

Seeing a warm smile

That last quite awhile

Seeing that faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

Simply standing strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

Finding solid ground

Turning a life around

Feeling what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Planting the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Getting to the other side

Following the right guide

Never trying to pretend

Loving each other until the end

Counting every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

Learning to remove fear

Seeing God standing near

Letting God lead the journey

Meant for us only

In A Way

In a way

We see a new day

We begin a journey

Meant for us only

We open our eyes

Then see a surprise

God walks with us

In Him we trust

We plant new seeds

That lead to good deeds

Nothing stops prayer

We know God is there

We continue to learn

Our stripes we earn

And we feel God’s affection

As well as His protection

In a way

Faith takes us far

Without leaving a scar

We stay close to God

With a wink and nod

His word is crystal clear

We hold it dear

We now know

Which way to go

We hold hands

Right where love stands

It’s our stepping stone

We know we’re not alone

We suddenly find

Peace of mind

Our life lessons

Become heartfelt confessions

We get stronger

As our days get longer

We see what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

We feel God’s power

Hour after hour

We stand tall

God always answers our call

And our spirit remains one

Until the day is done

Better Days

We send prayers above

While feeling God’s love

The prayers take us far

Without leaving a scar

We feel His presence

As well as His essence

It’s something pure

It makes us feel secure

We take nothing for granted

The seeds of love are planted

We struggle with doubt

But God works things out

We finally see what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

We continue our journey

Cause it’s meant for us only

We see our purpose set in stone

We know we’re not alone

Suddenly words make us see

What’s meant to be

In all ways

We see better days

We pursue our mission

With crystal clear vision

It keeps us strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

The moments we share

Let us know God is there

We do a victory dance

Whenever we get a chance

Our voices we raise

In a song of praise

Faith follows us as we go

Cause that’s all we know

Every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

We take one step at a time

While still in our prime

Knowing in all ways

We see better days
