Holding On

We face every day

As God leads the way

We wonder what we’ll find

But God offers peace of mind

God reveals our purpose

Before it rises to the surface

We get lost

Not knowing the cost

Until God turns us around

Then puts us on solid ground

God fights every enemy

He reveals what’s meant to be

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We fall then rise again

Cause faith helps us win

We run our race

In a safe and secure place

We grapple with doubt

Until God works things out

We look straight ahead

Feeling nothing but dread

Until God sets our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

We travel far

As we heal every scar

We learn to let go

Of what we used to know

Cause we feel brand new

We see what God can do

We hang on the word

We’ve always heard

We survive every storm

We break every norm

We rest at home

Where our souls can roam

We learn to smile

We laugh a little while

We enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We learn how to live

We learn how to give

We learn how to love

Just like heaven above

We have a new name

God removed our shame

While we were holding on

Thoughts Of You

Thoughts Of You

Fill my days

In so many ways

They fill my soul

They make me whole

They reveal my purpose

Before it rises to the surface

They build my dreams

Until I burst at the seams

They give me pleasure

Beyond all measure

They help me sit still

As I accept God’s will

They’re part of the journey

Meant just for me only

They offer something rare

They show God is there

They help me stand

As I hold God’s hand

They offer something pure

They make me feel secure

They lift me up

They fill my cup

And they fill my space

With mercy and grace

Thoughts of You

Make me see

What’s meant to be

They take me far

As I heal every scar

They show what I hold

As my story is told

They show in heaven above

Lies nothing but love

They make me dance

To celebrate my second chance

They make me smile

Even laugh a little while

They fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

They are the light

I follow day and night

They give me peace

My heart won’t release

They offer a word

That deserves to be heard

They carry me through

My thoughts of you
