Coming Of Age

Growing every day

Seeing things a different way

Leaving old things behind

Finding peace of mind

Following God’s lead

Planting a new seed

Ignoring naysayers

Saying your prayers

Embracing what’s meant to be

Telling the world what you see

Acknowledging your gift

Giving others a lift

Knowing what to share

Feeling God’s tender loving care

Moving forward until the end

Knowing you’ll never pretend

Going through every stage

During your coming of age

Intimacy

We communicate in our own way

We cherish every day

A tender touch

Means so much

The look of love

Feels like heaven above

We have something to hold

It’s worth more than gold

We kneel in prayer

Cause God is always there

We stand side by side

We smile with pride

We share a great deal

We have nothing to conceal

We learn as we go

We share what we know

We keep our love new

By changing our point of view

Life gets better

And we embrace it to the letter

We can see

What’s meant to be

Our journey continues

As a bountiful blessing ensues

And we face reality

As we share our intimacy

Beautiful

Waking each day

Sending praise God’s way

Holding your hand

Knowing where you stand

Loving you more

Filling you to the core

Seeing a purpose

Rise to the surface

Seeing eye to eye

Understanding why

Keeping you close

Knowing what matters most

Taking a journey

Ordained by God only

Doing what you can

Embracing God’s plan

Is simply beautiful

The Core Of My Soul

The core of my soul

knows faith makes me whole

It pleads to God

With more than a wink and a nod

It continues to soar

As I gleefully explore

It takes time

To remember my prime

It knows what to share

If offers tender loving care

It has a voice

That I use when I rejoice

It learns lessons

As it makes confessions

When it takes a fall

It knows who to call

It has eyes to see

What’s meant to be

It embraces a place

Filled with guidance and grace

It stands on solid ground

No matter who’s around

It has a gift

It gives me a lift

And life keeps me whole

To the core of my soul

Suddenly

We go through the fire

To obtain what we desire

We never know what we’ll find

So we seek peace of mind

We travel a long road

As God carries the heavy load

It’s abundantly clear

What we hold dear

Blessings arrive

And suddenly we begin to thrive

We continue a journey

Ordained by God only

We learn difficult lessons

That turn into confessions

We stumble here and there

But we know life isn’t fair

God gives us a lift

As He gives us a gift

And suddenly we’re on our way

To a brighter day

In A Way

In a way

We face each day

We look in our hearts

Where everything starts

God is our guide

Our gratitude we can’t hide

Our spirits soar

As God fills us to the core

And our bond continues to grow

As we share what we know

In a way

We suddenly reveal

What our hearts can’t conceal

We remember the time

We were in our prime

We plant seeds

As we do good deeds

Life gets better

As we follow God to the letter

The journey continues

And love is on all menus

Our hearts sing

We embrace everything

We stand strong

And we know where we belong

In a way
