Still Climbing

Getting through each day

While praying along the way

Faith makes me see

What’s truly meant to be

I ask God for a reason why

He shows a purpose I can’t deny

I embark on a journey

Meant for me only

I learn valuable lessons

That become confessions

I gain strength

By talking with God at length

I feel something pure

It makes me feel secure

While I struggle with doubt

God works things out

I learn to sit still

As I accept God’s will

I continue on a path

Without suffering God’s wrath

I look around

At all I’ve found

I see there’s more to do

It feels like morning dew

I continue my race

At my own pace

I have no fear

Cause God almighty is near

He keeps me strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

I look at a hand

Right where I stand

I’m suddenly filled to the core

Then God offers me more

I begin to rejoice

As I listen to God’s voice

I see what I’ll gain

Despite heartache and pain

I know it’s real

Too difficult to conceal

I have peace of mind

That’s hard to find

Cause I’m still climbing

Lost And Found

I went for a walk one day

A bright light led the way

I didn’t know what I’d find

I had a lot on my mind

A lot of things appeared

Some of them I feared

I didn’t know about purpose

Rising to the surface

I was very confused

Thought I was being used

It was hard to hide

All the tears I cried

I kept going for sure

I finally found something pure

It amazed me

I could see what’s meant to be

I stumbled here and there

But finally learned someone was there

It took a long time

To reach my prime

At its very core

My journey taught me more

I didn’t know what to do

But I made it through

I learned to sit still

Accept God’s will

It felt good

I thought it would

And I settled on solid ground

In the lost and found

Answered Prayers

Having a talk with God

Giving Him a wink and nod

Seeing what He can do

And all He brought you through

Getting through each day

In a very special way

Embracing a journey

Meant for you only

Sharing His love

Just like heaven above

Finally breaking free

Seeing what’s meant to be

Feeling His tender touch

Knowing it means so much

Going to a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Standing your ground

Sharing the joy you found

Letting go of fear

Knowing God is near

Staying by your guide

Knowing there’s nothing to hide

Learning to let go

Of what you used to know

Never pretending

Cause love is never ending

Being filled to the core

God offering you more

Looking into your heart

From the very start

Knowing where it will lead

Seeing a blessing indeed

Ignoring naysayers

As you receive answered prayers

Behind The Heart

Behind the heart

Is where love should start

Where everything should go

Where we share what we know

Where we see

What’s truly meant to be

Where we gain strength

When we talk with God at length

Where time passes by

And we never ask why

Where everything stays

Where we change our ways

And we finally find

Peace of mind

Behind the heart

Is where we sit still

As we accept God’s will

Where we find our purpose

Lying beneath the surface

Where we all stand

As we hold God’s hand

Where we all begin

As we learn to win

Where we learn who we are

As we reach for a star

Where we take time

To remember our prime

Where things get better

And we love to the letter

Where we’re absolutely sure

And we feel safe and secure

Where we face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Where we find a treasure

Beyond all measure

Where every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

Where we see what we hold

And our story is told

Where we get filled to the core

And God offers us more

As we start

With what’s behind the heart

Sunny Days

Sunny days

Please me in many ways

I think of blessings granted

The seeds I’ve planted

God’s powerful word

The voice I’ve heard

Precious moments shared

The dreams I’ve dared

The journey for me

What’s truly meant to be

The lessons I’ve learned

The stripes I’ve earned

Giving as good as I get

With little to regret

Sunny days

Please me in many ways

They make me think of love

Sent from heaven above

The shining light

I follow day and night

The moments I pray

How I cherish every day

Everything I do

What God brought me through

The brand new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

What fills my soul

What makes me whole

Something warm and pure

What makes me feel secure

The special place

Filled with mercy and grace

The solid ground I feel

What’s too difficult to conceal

God’s amazing power

What I feel hour after hour

Things that make me smile

How the smile last a while

Letting go of fear

Seeing God standing near

Holding God’s hand

Right where I stand

Lifting my voice

As I begin to rejoice

And finding ways

To see sunny days
