Your Eyes

Your eyes are so kind

Their gentleness eases my mind

They are so pure

They make me feel secure

They show nothing but love

As sent by heaven above

They brighten every day

In a very special way

Your eyes are the window to your soul

They make life whole

They show God’s plan

Whenever they can

They are the key

To what’s meant to be

They draw me in

Let me know I can win

They fill me to the core

Then offer me much more

They offer a touch

The means so much

They follow me everywhere I go

They help me grow

Your eyes make me smile

The smile last awhile

I always find a surprise

In your eyes

The Beginning

The beginning is a day

It shows us the way

The beginning is a prayer

It shows God standing there

The beginning allows us to grow

As we share what we know

The beginning is taking the time

To remember our prime

The beginning is fulfilling the purpose

We see lying at the surface

The beginning provides solid ground

No matter who’s around

The beginning is a place

Filled with God’s grace

The beginning will make us sit still

As we accept God’s will

The beginning provides blessings

We can count without stressing

The beginning makes clear

What we hold dear

It’s a wonder to behold

It’s a story untold

And we’ll keep winning

In the beginning

The Next Time

The next time I fall in love

It’ll feel like heaven above

The next time I fall

I’ll know who to call

The next time I feel insecure

I’ll search for something pure

The next time I hear God’s voice

I’ll lift mine and rejoice

The next time I take a journey

I’ll see that it’s for me only

The next time I take a stand

I’ll hold God’s hand

The next time I see His guiding light

I’ll follow it day and night

The next time I see a new day

I’ll cherish it in every way

The next time I see a safe place

I’ll think of God’s grace

The next time I look in my heart

I’ll know where to start

The next time I share my dreams

I’ll burst at the seams

The next time I feel solid ground

I’ll share the joy I found

The next time

The Rain

As we look at the rain

We see what we’ll gain

We take one step at a time

While still in our prime

The rain continues to fall

But we know who to call

The rain provides strength

As we talk to God at length

The rain makes us see

What’s truly meant to be

The rain is a stepping stone

That won’t leave us alone

The rain holds us close

When it matters most

It lifts us up

It fills our cup

It’s a sight to behold

It’s a story untold

The rain shows the way

Each and every day

It teaches lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

And we’ll always see what we’ll gain

As we look at the rain

Standing Alone

While I’m standing alone

I think of all I’ve ever known

How many times I’ve prayed

How often love stayed

Every time I sat still

As I accepted God’s will

Each new journey

That was meant for me only

How God made a way

Each and every day

My beating heart

And where love should start

While I’m standing alone

I think of the touch

That meant so much

The beautiful place

Filled with guidance and grace

The strength I gained

Every time it rained

What made me sure

What made me feel secure

I think of the smile

That lasted awhile

And being in my zone

While I’m standing alone
