New Horizons

We face a new day

Knowing God will lead the way

We learn new things

We embrace the joy life brings

We relish the peace

Our hearts won’t release

We prepare for the journey

Meant for us only

We gain a renewed strength

After talking with God at length

We’ve changed our view

After seeing what God can do

We’ve seen our purpose

Lying at the surface

We hold our faith close

Cause faith matters most

Some thought we wouldn’t last

But we’ve learned from the past

We’ve discovered the word

That needs to be heard

We’ve traveled far

After healing every scar

Our purpose is clear

So, we move without fear

We know what we hold

Our story will be told

We stand on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Our souls can roam

In our brand new home

We know what’s for us

In God we trust

We look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

We’ll keep going

We’ll keep growing

We count new blessings galore

As God fills us to the core

We have God’s affection

He’s given us direction

We’ll plant new seeds

That lead to good deeds

During our new horizons

Over The Years

Over the years

We’ve shed some tears

We’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

We’ve gotten turned around

Before God put us on solid ground

We’ve grappled with doubt

Until God worked things out

We’ve wondered what’s for us

Before seeing the God we trust

We’ve search for purpose

Until it rose to the surface

We’ve embraced every journey

Meant for us only

We’ve looked at heaven above

Only to find true love

We’ve held each other close

Cause bonding matters most

We’ve stood face to face

In a place filled with grace

We’ve been touched by God

With a wink and nod

Over the years

We’ve built new dreams

That made us burst at the seams

We’ve felt weak

Until we heard God speak

We’ve been insecure

Before feeling something pure

We’ve faced our naysayers

While saying our prayers

We’ve hung on the word

We’ve always heard

We’ve done our love dance

After our second chance

We’ve sat in a home

Where our souls can roam

We’ve become one

We see what God has done

We’ve felt God’s affection

We’ve had His protection

We’ve shared every smile

Things that make us laugh a while

Our love has been real

Too difficult to conceal

Over the years

Love

Love fills every day

In a very special way

Love heals the soul

It makes life whole

Love is the purpose

We see lying at the surface

Love offers peace

Our hearts won’t release

Love can turn us around

Put us on solid ground

Love shares a smile

Makes us laugh a while

Love fills the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Love removes all doubt

That God will work things out

Love offers something pure

Makes us feel secure

Love fills us to the core

Before God offers us more

Love removes every cloud

It makes us proud

Love can set us free

Reveals what’s meant to be

Love sets things in stone

Shows we’re not alone

Love plants the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Love gave us a home

Where our souls can roam

Love changed our view

After we saw what God can do

Love is the encouraging word

That needs to be heard

Love is real

Too difficult to conceal

Love can move the heart

Show us where to start

Love is the lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

Love is meant for us

The God we all trust

Love helps us stand

With one touch of the hand

Love

Broken To Blessed

I’ve seen some difficult days

As I changed my ways

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

I’ve been scorned

Had my heart torn

I’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

I’ve gotten turned around

Until God put me on solid ground

I’ve fallen only to rise again

Knowing with faith I’d win

I’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

I’ve grappled with fear

Until I saw God standing near

I couldn’t stand

Until God took my hand

I lost my voice

Until faith taught me to rejoice

I’ve felt weak

Until I heard God speak

I’ve looked in my heart

Not knowing where to start

Until God gave me direction

Along with affection

I’ve searched for my purpose

Then saw it lying at the surface

I’ve searched high and low

For what would help me grow

Before opening my eyes

To a wonderful surprise

I’ve wondered what’s by design

Then saw everything is fine

I didn’t know I’d make it through

Then God changed my view

I began to roam

Until God gave me a home

I wondered if this journey

Was meant for me only

Until God revealed the word

That needed to be heard

I’m not depressed

I’ve gone from broken to blessed
