Thinking of the past

Moments we made last

The good old days

God’s loving ways

The journey we traveled

Why our souls never unraveled

How we held each other close

Like love mattered most

When we let go of fear

God almighty standing near

When we found the place

Filled with mercy and grace

God’s encouraging word

Which we’ve always heard

When we removed doubt

That God would work things out

When every satisfied soul

Was made whole

The true love

That came from heaven above

The lessons we learned

And all the stripes we earned

Thinking of what faith gave us

The God we trust

Things God can do

How we made it through

When we found a home

Where our souls can roam

The moment we found purpose

Lying at the surface

How we learned to follow the light

That shines day and night

When we learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

How we got stronger

As our days got longer

When we learned to stand

While holding God’s hand

When we remembered our name

Then let go of our shame

All the blessings granted

All the seeds we planted

Ways we’ve grown

All the things we’ve known

And what we held dear

During yesteryear
