Roots

Roots are where we start

They stay close to the heart

They show us who we are

They help us reach for a star

They follow us wherever we go

They help us share what we know

They are a gift from God

Let’s give Him a wink and nod

And they provide solid ground

No matter who’s around

Roots show us what’s real

Things we can’t conceal

The life we lead

How we succeed

The way we travel

Things that never unravel

They appear every day

We cherish them in every way

They are filled with love

Sent from heaven above

They are the purpose

We see lying at the surface

They are the lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

We call them roots

Believe

Believe in the silent prayer

Believe in the God standing there

Believe that the heart

Is a good place to start

Believe in the love

Sent by heaven above

Believe in the purpose

Lying at the surface

Believe in the days

You cherish in various ways

Believe in God’s will

As you sit perfectly still

Believe in every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

Believe in the journey

Meant for you only

Believe in the smile

That last quite awhile

Believe that your soul

Will be made whole

Believe in the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Believe in God’s plan

As you do what you can

Believe that you can achieve

Believe

No Regrets

I have no regrets

Life is as good as it gets

God’s will is clear

I hold it dear

I’ve found a way

To a brighter day

The journey is mine

Everything’s just fine

And I’ll count every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

I have no regrets

Life is as good as it gets

I ignore naysayers

Instead, I say my prayers

I see my purpose

Lying at the surface

I know where I stand

As I hold God’s hand

Promises God will keep

That won’t make me weep

I keep the ground beneath my feet

It’s where God and I meet

What my soul feels

My heart never conceals

And the world never forgets

That I have no regrets

Glory

We bask in God’s glory

Let’s tell our story

He leads the way

Each and every day

His love is true

It feels like morning dew

We give our best

He does the rest

Every moment is pure

We feel safe and secure

We bask in God’s glory

Let’s tell our story

We’re filled to the core

With blessings galore

We’ve found solid ground

We’ll share the joy we found

We hold faith close

Cause faith matters most

We continue to grow

As we share what we know

We embrace God’s plan

We’ll do all we can

Our journey is meant to be

It’s all we can see

We’ll take time

To remember our prime

As we tell our story

And bask in God’s glory

On My Knees

As I fall to my knees

I know who to please

I say a silent prayer

Thanking God for being there

He lifts me up

He fills my cup

I gain strength

After talking with Him at length

And I cherish every day

In my own special

As I fall to my knees

I see what God has done

His love is second to none

It follows me around

It keeps me on solid ground

I’m always protected

But never rejected

It’s God’s plan

So I’ll do what I can

With every step I take

And every move I make

It’s abundantly clear

What I hold dear

I lift my voice

As I rejoice

While I’m on my knees
