Once upon a time

We had beautiful days

We embraced God’s loving ways

We traveled far

As faith healed every scar

We carried lessons

That became heartfelt confessions

We saw what we’d gain

Through heartache and pain

God made our purpose clear

Then removed our fear

We held each other close

Cause our bond mattered most

We hung on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We counted every blessing granted

Then watered the seeds we planted

We shared a smile

We laughed a little while

We saw what was in stone

We realized we weren’t alone

We changed our view

After we saw what God could do

He healed every soul

He made life whole

God removed every cloud

We embraced what made us proud

And we learned to let go

Of what we used to know

Once upon a time

We learned to stand

While holding God’s hand

We shared the dreams

That made us burst at the seams

Faith filled us to the core

Before God offered us more

We enjoyed a moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We shared a kiss

We couldn’t resist

We shared a tender touch

That meant so much

And we remembered our prime

Once upon a time
