Yesterday

Yesterday

We embraced a new day

As we accepted God’s way

We counted the blessings He granted

Then watered the seeds we planted

We shared the love

Coming from heaven above

We fulfilled the purpose

We saw lying at the surface

We reflected on the journey

Meant for us only

We kept our faith close

Cause faith matters most

We found something pure

We felt safe and secure

We looked into our hearts

To see where love starts

We found a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We saw what God can do

How we made it through

We learned to see

What’s truly meant to be

Yesterday

We shared the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

We learned what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

We did a victory dance

After our second chance

We followed the light

That shines day and night

We passed another test

Like all the rest

We shared a smile

That lasted awhile

We felt God’s power

Hour after hour

We saw beautiful things

All the joy life brings

We stayed on course

Without an ounce of remorse

We made crystal clear

What we hold dear

And learned love is here to stay

Yesterday

Getting Happy

Awaking to a new day

Sending some praise God’s way

Feeling nothing but love

Coming from heaven above

Preparing for a journey

Meant for me only

Resting in a home

Where my soul can roam

Planting the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Hanging on God’s word

Cause it’s all I’ve heard

Building new dreams

That make me burst at the seams

Looking straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Acknowledging an answered prayer

Shows God is there

Sharing my smile

Laughing a little while

Seeing what’s in stone

Realizing I’m not alone

Learning my name

Letting go of my shame

Seeing the place

Filled with mercy and grace

Watching God perform miracles

As I stand on principles

Gaining a renewed strength

As I talk with Him at length

Touching a hand

Right where I stand

Feeling God’s affection

Having His protection

Taking faith everywhere I go

Sharing what I know

Getting much stronger

As the day gets longer

Enjoying a moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

Sharing lessons learned

Seeing the stripes I’ve earned

Learning what to ignore

As God fills me to the core

Having no doubt

That God will work things out

Preparing to do it all again

Knowing faith will help me win

In Love

We share our days

In so many ways

Every moment is real

Too difficult to conceal

Every tender touch

Means so much

We share a kiss

We simply can’t resist

Our souls have become one

We see what God has done

We’ve found a treasure

We cherish beyond measure

Faith is our guide

Our gratitude we can’t hide

God fills every space

As we run our race

We share our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We hold hands

Right where God stands

We rest in a home

Where our souls can roam

We share every smile

Even laugh a little while

We see what’s in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

We hang on His word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

Our hearts run free

We know it’s meant to be

We plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

As we look into our hearts

We see where the journey starts

We hold our faith close

Cause faith matters most

The moments we share

Show that we care

We feel God’s power

Hour after hour

Bonding is by design

So, everything is fine

We hold every moment dear

As we move without fear

We look at heaven above

And know that we’re in love

Reflections

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
