Men

I watch men come and go

I listen to them share what they know

They have wisdom to spare

They say and do what they dare

They run their race

In about every place

They poke out their chest

As they prepare for their test

They reach their peak

As they listen to God speak

They fall and rise again

Cause faith helps them win

They face every day

They accept God’s way

They move without fear

Cause God almighty is near

They hold faith close

Cause faith matters most

And they count every blessing

Without stressing

I watch men come and go

I see the treasure they hold

I hear the stories being told

They go through the fire

To obtain what they desire

They stay strong

Whether they’re right or wrong

God offers them affection

As well as protection

They learn to stand

As they hold His hand

They follow His light

Both day and night

They embrace their journey

It’s meant for them only

They always smile

Even laugh a little while

And every day I live

I see how much they give

Men

In The Morning

A new day will arrive

Our souls will thrive

Love will come down

Faith will remove our frown

And we’ll find peace

We’ll never release

In the morning

We’ll embrace a new journey

Meant for us only

We’ll finally see

What’s meant to be

And life will get better

When we embrace it to the letter

In the morning

We’ll gain a renewed strength

When we talk with God at length

Our minds will rest

We’ll past every test

And we’ll see a place

Filled with God’s grace

In the morning

We’ll feel an affection

We’ll have protection

We’ll plant seeds

To very good deeds

And count every blessing

Without stressing

In the morning

We’ll find something real

We’ll know what to reveal

We’ll reach our peak

When we hear God speak

And we’ll share the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

In the morning

We’ll hold each other near

We’ll remove our fear

We’ll see what’s in stone

We’ll see we’re not alone

And we’ll learn to smile

Even laugh a little while

In the morning

We’ll travel far

As we reach for a star

We’ll learn as we go

We’ll share what we know

And we’ll find our purpose

Lying at the surface

In the morning

When God Appears

When God appears

The soul is set free

It knows what’s meant to be

We feel the love

Coming from heaven above

We feel a peace

Our hearts won’t release

We embrace every new day

We accept God’s way

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We hear an encouraging word

That’s the best we’ve heard

We make crystal clear

What we hold dear

We gain a renewed strength

As we talk at length

We get filled to the core

Before God offers us more

And we embrace every journey

Meant for us only

When God appears

We lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

We do a victory dance

After our second chance

Faith turns us around

Puts us on solid ground

We ignore our naysayers

We continue with our prayers

We hold faith close

Cause faith matters most

We dare to dream

As strange as it may seem

We begin a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

We move without fear

God wipes every tear

We see our purpose

Rise to the surface

We see beautiful things

All the joy life brings

And we see what we hold

As our story is told

The Soul Cries Out

The soul longs for love

Coming from heaven above

It longs for peace

Only a silent prayer can release

It searches for a hand to hold

It longs to be bold

It looks all around

Wonders what it found

It searches for a safe place

To run its race

It tries to remove fear

When it sees God standing near

It tries to dream

As strange as it may seem

It faces every day

It tries to find its way

It looks for what’s in stone

It may feel all alone

It longs to smile

Even laugh a little while

It wants to be free

See what’s meant to be

It wants to let go

Of what it used to know

It tries to care

It longs to share

It tries to sit still

As it accepts God’s will

It searches for affection

It longs for protection

It tries to look ahead

Without an ounce of dread

It wants to reveal

What the heart can’t conceal

It tries to be strong

Be it right or wrong

It travels far

It tries to heal every scar

And it won’t pretend

It cries out until the end
