The Love We Know

We listen to our beating hearts

After seeing where love starts

Every moment is rare

Filled with tender loving care

We hold each other close

Cause bonding matters most

We stay close to God

By offering a wink and nod

We see our divine purpose

Before it rises to the surface

We feel something pure

We feel safe and secure

We know this journey

Is meant for us only

Our bond gets stronger

As our days get longer

We love in a home

Where our souls can roam

We plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

We stand on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

We do a love dance

Whenever we get a chance

We share a smile

That last quite a while

We move without fear

We hold our faith near

We cherish our treasure

Beyond all measure

What we have is real

Too difficult to conceal

We look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Cause we know what’s for us

In God we trust

We learn as we go

We share what we know

Our bond travels far

Without leaving a scar

Every tender kiss

Is difficult to resist

Every tender touch

Means so much

We see beautiful things

All the joy life brings

Cause we give as good as we get

With very little regret

With all the love we know

I Remember

I remember beautiful days

God’s loving ways

What we held close

Like it mattered most

How we looked into our hearts

To see where love starts

The long victory dance

After our second chance

How we used to smile

How we laughed a while

All the lessons we learned

All the stripes we earned

When we opened our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

When we changed our view

After seeing what God can do

The moment we built dreams

That made us burst at the seams

How sharing what we know

Helped us grow

When God removed every cloud

Moments that made us proud

And when God turned us around

Then put us on solid ground

I remember every chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Everything God gave us

When we learned to trust

The safe place

Where we ran our race

When we felt God’s power

Hour after hour

When faith made us see

What was meant to be

When God set things in stone

Reminded us we’re not alone

The moments of pleasure

We cherished beyond measure

When God gave us a name

Then removed our shame

‘The encouraging word

That needed to be heard

What was by design

Why everything is fine

I remember
