Paradise

Awaking to a new day

Knowing God made a way

Breaking into a smile

Even laughing a little while

Dancing when we can

Seeing God has a plan

Feeling the love

Coming from heaven above

Living every dream

Strange though it may seem

God holding us close

Cause we matter most

Faith soothing us

Cause in God we trust

Embracing the life we know

Allowing our pride to show

Resting in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Seeing what’s by design

Knowing everything is fine

Changing our view

Seeing what God can do

Knowing who we are

As we reach for a star

Embracing God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

Looking into our hearts

Seeing where love starts

Sharing every journey

Meant for us only

Feeling God’s affection

Having His affection

Counting our blessings

Instead of stressing

Loving the skin we’re in

Knowing with faith we’ll win

Remembering our name

Letting go of the shame

Embracing a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Staying in prayer

Knowing God is there

Seeing what’s ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Staying by our guide

Cause God’s on our side

Is so nice

It feels like paradise

Better Days

Thinking about the past

Trying to make the moment last

Seeing how God brought us through

Marveling at what He can do

Falling and rising again

Knowing with faith we’ll win

Staying in prayer

Cause God almighty is there

Getting stronger every minute

Cause God is in it

Counting blessings galore

Until God gives us more

Resting in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Hanging on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

Looking straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Removing all doubt

That things will work out

Embracing God’s ways

As we look to better days

We’ve shed many tears

Had many fears

Before seeing what’s in stone

Why God never left us alone

We’ve faced naysayers

While saying our prayers

Before finding peace

Our hearts won’t release

We’ve learned to sit still

As we accept God’s will

We’ve traveled a long road

While God carried the heavy load

We’ve learned lessons

That are now confessions

We finally found a home

Where our souls can roam

We’ve grappled with fear

Until we saw God standing near

God soothed every soul

Made us whole

We couldn’t see

What was meant to be

Now we accept God’s ways

As we look for better days

Joy

Waking with a smile

Laughing a little while

Feeling the love

Coming from heaven above

Relishing all we can

Is certainly God’s plan

We arrive at a new place

Filled with mercy and grace

God leads the way

During the new day

We begin to dance

Cause we have a second chance

We remove our fear

Cause God is standing near

We open our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

It holds us close

Cause we matter most

Nothing could be better

We embrace it to the letter

Every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

We travel far

As we reach for a star

We stand tall

Cause God answers every call

Our souls are free

We know it’s meant to be

We rest on solid ground

We know what we’ve found

We know our name

We’ve let go of the shame

We ignore our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Cause God is with us

In Him we trust

We have peace

Our hearts can’t release

We’re filled to the core

Nothing means more

Than our joy

Sunrise

A new day begins

Faith ensures everyone wins

We start a new journey

Ordained by God only

We look at what we see

We know what’s meant to be

God shows us who we are

As we reach for a star

God shows us the way

During the new day

We feel something new

We see what God can do

Nothing goes wrong

The new journey keeps us strong

We see our purpose

Rise to the surface

God holds us close

Cause we matter most

We embrace new things

We see the joy life brings

Every moment is real

Too difficult to conceal

We learn as we go

We share what we know

Every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

We learn new lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

The new day lifts us up

Fills our cup

As God stays by our side

He’s our loving guide

God fills every soul

With what makes it whole

We give as good as we get

With very little regret

We see what’s by design

So, everything is find

We find a new treasure

Beyond all measure

Nothing means more

We’re filled to the core

We feel tender loving care

So, we know God is there

We see a surprise

At sunrise
