Close To You

Thoughts of you fill my days

I praise God in many ways

I dream of holding you close

Like you matter most

I dream of your kiss

One I can’t resist

I think of the journey

Meant just for us only

How we can build as we go

Then share what we know

What I feel is real

Too difficult to conceal

I see us doing a love dance

To celebrate our romance

I see your smile

One that travels a mile

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

I long to hold your hand

Right where you stand

I see your face

In every place

My thoughts are pure

Make me feel secure

I feel brand new

I long to be close to you

I stand on solid ground

I long to have you around

I think of moments we could share

All the things we could dare

I think of the home

Where our souls could roam

I hang on God’s word

One I’ve always heard

Faith made me see

That we’re meant to be

I long to hear your voice

Cause it would make me rejoice

My thoughts are what I hold

As my story is told

I feel like morning dew

I long to be  close to you

The Battle

The battle is fought every day

As God leads the way

God fights every enemy

While revealing what’s meant to be

He gives us strength

As we talk at length

He reveals our purpose

Before it rises to the surface

We see what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

The battle helps us stand

As we hold God’s hand

God removes our fear

When we see Him standing near

We get turned around

But God provides solid ground

God offers us peace

Our hearts won’t release

The battle opens our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

God lifts us up

He fills every cup

God sets things in stone

He never leaves us alone

The battle leaves no doubt

That things will work out

God provides a home

Where our souls can roam

God fills every space

With mercy and grace

The battle is real

Too difficult to conceal

God manages the storm

He breaks every norm

He gives us moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

God sets our path

Without unleashing His wrath

The battle gives us a name

As God removes our shame

The battle restores what’s lost

No matter the cost

God fills every chapter

With joy and laughter

The battle reveals lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

God reveals what’s for us

In Him we trust

As He fights the battle

Sea Of Love

We’re sailing the sea of love

While looking at heaven above

We hold each other close

Cause bonding matters most

We build as we go

We share what we know

Love is the purpose

We see lying at the surface

We count blessings galore

As God fills our core

What we have is real

Too difficult to conceal

We’ve embarked on a journey

Meant just for us only

We rest in a home

Where our souls can roam

We look in each other’s eyes

Then see a wonderful surprise

Cause God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

We break into a smile

Then laugh a little while

And we feel brand new

As we begin life anew

We’re sailing the sea of love

While looking at heaven above

We see what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave us alone

We feel God’s power

Hour after hour

We plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

We build our bond

From here and beyond

We enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We get closer every day

Cause God leads the way

We have something pure

We feel safe and secure

Cause God fills every space

With mercy and grace

We build once again

With faith we win

As we sail the sea of love
