Thinking of yesteryear

How God removed our fear

Thinking of beautiful days

God’s loving ways

Thinking of the journey

Ordained by God only

Looking at something brand new

How God carried us through

Reflecting on our past

How we made every moment last

Thinking of what we used to know

How faith helped us grow

Thinking of what fills every soul

What makes life whole

Thinking of life lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

Seeing how God removed every cloud

Moments that made us proud

Finding a new home

Where our souls can roam

Looking straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Listening to the encouraging word

That deserves to be heard

Finally seeing the light

That shines day and night

Gaining a renewed strength

Whenever we talk with God at length

Finding new dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Learning how to live

Learning how to give

Learning how to love

Just like heaven above

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Learning our name

Letting go of our shame

Finding a place

To run our race

Awaking to a new plan

God will reveal when He can

Seeing the steps we take

All the memories we’ll make

Counting the blessings granted

Watering the seeds we’ve planted

While never pretending

Cause love is never ending
