When Morning Comes

When morning comes

A new journey will begin

Faith will help us win

We’ll prepare for a journey

Meant for us only

Our purpose will be clear

God will remove our fear

We’ll build new dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Our souls will run free

We’ll see what’s meant to be

Our hearts will beat as one

We’ll see what God has done

We’ll pray for strength

As we talk with God at length

We’ll learn as we go

We’ll share what we know

We’ll do a victory dance

To celebrate our second chance

We’ll start life anew

We’ll see what God can do

We’ll plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

And we’ll share a smile

That last quite a while

When morning comes

We’ll reach our peak

When we hear God speak

We’ll see what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave us alone

We’ll run our race

In a safe and secure place

We’ll rest on solid ground

We’ll share the joy we found

We’ll hold our faith close

Cause faith matters most

We’ll enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We’ll pass every test

Just like all the rest

We’ll count every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

We won’t pretend

We’ll celebrate from beginning to end

When morning comes

Old Folks Say

I hear old folks say

They know faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

They have dreams

That make them burst at the seams

They hold each other close

Cause bonding matters most

God turned them around

Then put them on solid ground

They move without fear

Cause their God is near

They see their purpose

Lying at the surface

Every time they fall

God answers their call

They know what to ignore

Cause they’re filled to the core

They’ve changed their view

Cause they know what God can do

They know their name

They’ve let go of their shame

They hold God’s hand

Right where they stand

And their life lessons

Have become heartfelt confessions

I hear old folks say

They do a victory dance

Whenever they get a chance

They look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Cause God set their path

Without unleashing His wrath

They rest in a home

Where their souls can roam

They have no doubt

That God will work things out

They feel unconditional love

Coming from heaven above

They hang on the encouraging word

They’ve always heard

They cherish every day

In a very special way

I hear old folks say
