Footprints

Footprints appear in the sand

They’re seen all over the land

They show where we’ve been

They show memories of way back when

The strength gained during a storm

How we broke every norm

They show the tears we shed

The life we led

The moments we prayed

How love stayed

They show the seeds we planted

The things we took for granted

All the different days

All the passionate ways

They show solid ground

All the joy we found

They show true love

Every time we looked at heaven above

The God given journey

Meant for us only

They show everything we see

And what’s meant to be

Our difficult past

And moments we made last

Appear in footprints

In Love

The day we met

Is one I’ll never forget

We held hands

Right where love stands

Then took a stance

Before doing a lover’s dance

I thought our moment together

Would last forever

I was sure

I felt secure

The solid ground

Turned me around

And I fell in love

I spend every day

Cherishing you in every way

This is a journey

Meant for us only

You put a move on my heart

From the very start

You’ve a wonder to behold

You’re a story untold

I’m in a safe space

No one can take your place

It feels like heaven above

And I’m in love

While I’m Away

While I’m away

Remember the day

We fell in love

What felt like heaven above

The moments we shared

The dreams we dared

Remember when we held each other close

Like Love mattered most

The nights we knelt in prayer

Cause God was there

And we embraced the purpose

We saw lying at the surface

While I’m away

Remember the kiss

Neither of us could miss

The journey we took

How faith made us look

Our amazing pride

The joy we couldn’t hide

The solid ground

We eventually found

The way we grew

As we shared what we knew

Remember love will stay

While I’m away

Faith

Faith is acknowledging God

With a wink and nod

It’s finding strength

By talking with Him at length

It’s cherishing every day

In a special way

It’s staying in prayer

Cause you know He’s there

And letting go of fear

When you see destiny lying near

Faith is staying on course

Without an ounce of remorse

Ignoring naysayers as you go

While sharing what you know

Being filled to the core

Then having God give you more

Knowing what’s at stake

With every step you take

Having some direction

Along with plenty of protection

Wearing a smile

That last awhile

God saving your soul

His love making you whole

Faith

These Eyes

These eyes are eyes of love

They admire heaven above

They see God’s way

As I cherish every day

These eyes see the past

As I make every moment last

They see blessings granted

And every seed planted

They see how to acquire

Everything I desire

They see the dreams

That make me burst at the seams

They see the place

Filled with guidance and grace

They see solid ground

As I share the joy I found

They see my purpose

Rise to the surface

They see my heart

And where life should start

They see my guide

And the pride I can’t hide

They see God’s power

I feel it hour after hour

Everything is a surprise

To these eyes
