Foolish Heart

Feeling a feeling

That leaves us reeling

Playing that game again

Knowing we won’t win

Wondering if love

Will come from heaven above

Longing to hold a hand

Right where we stand

Looking for something real

What only the heart can reveal

Knowing time will tell

What we know so well

Whispering a silent prayer

Knowing God is there

Until we start

With our foolish heart

Looking straight ahead

With a feeling of dread

Longing to fill the soul

With what will make it whole

Seeing that a tender touch

Means so much

Knowing we’ll reach our peak

When we hear God speak

Wanting some affection

As well as protection

Taking everything one moment at a time

While still in our prime

Being all alone

Until everything is set in stone

Looking for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Waiting on the plan

God will reveal when He can

Without hesitation

And much anticipation

Until we start

With our foolish heart

The Way Home

Staying on the same road

Knowing God will carry the load

We wonder what we’ll find

As we cherish peace of mind

We move without fear

Cause God almighty is near

Our hearts never stray

God guides us every step of the way

The road is long

But faith keeps us strong

We carry what we learn

We see the stripes we earn

We find our purpose

Rising to the surface

God has His hands on us

In Him we trust

He clears our path

Without unleashing His wrath

Our God given journey

Is meant for us only

The journey takes us far

As we reach for a star

His amazing word

Is the best we’ve heard

We marvel at what we see

We know it’s meant to be

It’s part of a plan

God reveals when He can

We keep going

All while knowing

Every day is a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

We never get lost

We know how much faith cost

And our souls never roam

On the way home

Today

Today

We face a new day

We’ll accept God’s way

Our hearts run free

We’ll see what’s meant to be

We stand on solid ground

We’ll share the joy we found

We’ll learn to rejoice

When we hear God’s voice

We’ll keep our faith close

Cause faith matters most

We’ll set our standards high

Without asking why

We’ll go through the fire

To obtain what we desire

And we’ll fulfill the purpose

Rising at the surface

Today

We’ll learn as we go

We’ll share what we know

We’ll change our view

God will carry us through

We’ll give as good as we get

With very little regret

We’ll get stronger

As our days get longer

Life will get better

As we embrace it to the letter

We’ll learn to smile

Even laugh a little while

We’ll feel God’s affection

We’ll have His protection

We’ll have a light

We can follow day and night

We’ll carry the life lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

And move without fear

Cause God is always near

When Love Calls

When love calls

God shows us the way

To live every day

We have arms to hold us

Cause in God we trust

We share a journey

Meant for us only

We plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

We rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We learn to sit still

As we accept God’s will

Faith makes us see

What’s truly meant to be

We move without fear

Cause God is always near

When love calls

We see what’s in stone

We know we’re not alone

We hold hands

Right where love stands

We stand tall

God answers every call

We stand on His word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We share love and more

As we get filled to the core

We feel something pure

We feel safe and secure

We get stronger

As our days get longer

God is the guiding light

That shines day and night

We lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

Our hearts begin to swell

Cause we know God well

We cherish a treasure

Beyond all measure

And faith never stalls

When love calls

Sunrise

Embracing a new day

Letting God lead the way

Embracing another journey

Meant for us only

Knowing what we’ll learn

And all the stripes we’ll earn

Praying as we go

Sharing what we know

Doing a victory dance

During our second chance

Gaining a renewed strength

As we talk with God at length

Looking all around

Until we share the joy we found

Cherishing another blessing

Without a lot of stressing

Letting go of fear

Holding our faith near

Seeing what matters most

Holding each other close

Looking at heaven above

During another day to love

Getting filled to the core

God offering us more

Looking in the mirror

Our purpose becoming clearer

Taking another stand

As we hold God’s hand

As we find our way

During another day

Soul Searching

Searching the mind

To see what we’ll find

Looking at the heart

Where all things start

Holding our faith close

Cause faith matters most

Following the light

That shines day and night

Seeing the way

To live every day

Hearing a word

That’s the best we’ve heard

Staying faithful and true

As God carries us through

Sharing special things

Embracing what life brings

Taking the time

To remember our prime

Seeing what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Falling and rising again

Finally learning to win

Feeling something pure

Feeling safe and secure

Sharing love and affection

Having God’s protection

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

Making crystal clear

What we hold dear

Lifting one voice

As we begin to rejoice

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Gaining a renewed strength

While talking to God at length

Looking all around

Until we find solid ground

Finding a safe space

To run our race

Planting the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Knowing every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

Knowing what we share

Seeing God standing there

Until the very end

He doesn’t have to pretend
