Step By Step

Step by step

We’ll cherish every day

We’ll accept God’s way

We’ll embrace the new journey

Meant for us only

We’ll let go of our fear

When we see God standing near

We’ll reflect on the past

The moments we made last

We’ll hold each other close

Cause love matters most

We’ll learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We’ll past another test

Just like all the rest

We’ll see our purpose

Rising to the surface

We’ll carry life lessons

That will become heartfelt confessions

We’ll lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

We’ll reach our peak

Whenever we hear God speak

And life will get better

When we embrace it to the letter

Step by step

We’ll ignore our naysayers

While saying our prayers

We’ll hang on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We’ll learn to smile

Even laugh a little while

We’ll keep going

All while knowing

That God will provide

Our gratitude we can’t hide

We’ll find a home

Where our souls can roam

We’ll find peace

Our hearts can’t release

We’ll spread the love

Coming from heaven above

And stay close to God

By offering a wink and nod

Step by step

Out Of The Dark

I’ve been down

Had my smile turned into a frown

I’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

I’ve grappled with doubt

Until God worked things out

I’ve searched high and low

Until faith helped me grow

I’ve fallen and risen again

Cause faith helped me win

I’ve learned harsh lessons

That have become heartfelt confessions

I’ve been frail and weak

Until I heard God speak

I’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

I’ve searched for a moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

I’ve felt all alone

Until God revealed what’s in stone

I was a lost soul

Until God made me whole

I’m coming out of the dark

I’ve wondered what’s by design

If everything will be fine

I’ve learned what to ignore

As God filled me to the core

I’ve wondered about my daily journey

Until I learned it was for me only

I’ve wondered what’s ahead

Until God removed my dread

I’ve learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

I’ve faced my naysayers

While saying my prayers

I’ve opened my eyes

To a wonderful surprise

I’ve longed for a place

To run my race

Until God showed me the way

To live every day

The world knows my name

I’ve let go of my shame

I’m coming out of the dark
