I’m smelling roses

As I strike a few poses

It’s part of a journey

Ordained by God only

We talk as I go

It’s the only thing I know

It’s something pure

It makes me feel secure

I’m in my own lane

It keeps me sane

I’m smelling roses

The scent is sweet

It’s where God and I meet

Nothing could be more grand

I know where I stand

I’ve come so far

Without a bruise or scar

It’s abundantly clear

My destiny is near

I’ll tell my story

With God’s grace and glory

I’m smelling roses

It’s meant to be

It brings out the best in me

I cherish every day

I wouldn’t have it any other way

Life hasn’t been the same

The world knows my name

I wear a smile

That last a while

I lift my voice

As I begin to rejoice

And I strike a few poses

While smelling the roses

Inside you is where I want to be

You mean the world to me

The moments we share

Let me know you care

The seed has been planted

I don’t take it for granted

Cause the things you do

Thrill me through in through

What we have is real

Something we can’t conceal

Inside you is where I want to be

This amazing journey

Is meant for us only

It fills me to the core

It makes me beg for more

Your loving way

Brightens every day

I see our purpose

Rising to the surface

Every step we take

Is a memory we can make

One look in your eyes

And it’s no surprise

We’re built to last

We’ll learn from the past

Solid ground lies beneath us

In God we trust

There’s nothing I’d rather do

Than get inside you

God is bigger than your problems.

In reality

We’re greeted with a daily blessing

We embrace it without stressing

We talk with God every day

He guides us in a special way

We have no fear

We don’t shed a tear

We keep walking

We keep talking

We’re in a place

Filled with God’s grace

Naysayers we ignore

Cause we’re filled to the core

In reality

We learn as we go

We share what we know

We hold each other close

Cause love matters most

Our journey takes us far

Without leaving a scar

What we gain

Is worth heartache and pain

We’re left with a smile

That last a while

And faith is the key

To being all we can be

In reality

Life is as good as our mindset

We give as good as we get

Every step we take

Is a memory we can make

We hold hands

Right where love stands

It doesn’t take long

To see where we belong

God reveals a plan

As soon as He can

And we begin to see

In reality

I believe flowers grow

I believe in sharing what I know

I believe in prayer

I believe God is there

I believe in taking a stand

As I hold God’s hand

I believe in the place

Filled with His grace

I believe in love

I believe in heaven above

I believe in purpose

As it rises to the surface

I believe every day

I believe in God’s way

I believe what’s true

I see what I’ve gone through

I believe the beat of my heart

Is where I should start

I believe every blessing

Should be cherished without stressing

I believe every step I take

Is a memory I can make

I believe God’s power

Last hour after hour

I believe in smelling roses

And striking poses

I’ll never leave

Cause I believe

Trust the process.

God is working on your behalf. Trust Him.

From out of the shadows I rise

I wipe the dust from my eyes

I reflect on a journey

Ordained by God only

I see all the ways

God filled my difficult days

Faith has been the key

To manufacturing the new me

I lift my voice

I begin to rejoice

Nothing can compare

To the bond God and I share

From out of the shadows I rise

It should come as no surprise

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve finally learned my name

I don’t hang my head in shame

I stand on solid ground

I share the joy I’ve found

I follow God’s lead

He’s the reason I succeed

And life is better

Cause I embrace it to the letter

From out of the shadows I rise

Let’s leave no doubt

God worked things out

I see my purpose

Rising to the surface

I’ve arrived in a place

Filled with God’s grace

I look at what I’ve known

I see how I’ve grown

I take a stand

As I hold God’s hand

And others see the gleam in my eyes

Cause from out of the shadows I rise

Waking every day

Accepting God’s way

Touching a hand

Taking a stand

Finishing a race

Seeing a special place

Knowing the journey

Was ordained by God only

Seeing what’s true

Changing your point of view

Taking time to share

Embracing tender loving care

Seeing your purpose

Rise to the surface

Counting every blessing

Without stressing

Being clear

About what you hold dear

Learning lessons

That become confessions

Having someone to hold

Hearing a story being told

Being in tune

With what will appear soon

Healing the soul

Making it whole

Embracing every one

Until you’re done

Precious moments
