So Close

So close

Are we in every way

Love brightens every day

The moments we dare

The dreams we share

Are sweeter than morning dew

They complete us through and through

God planted the seed

It’s a blessing indeed

We’ve come this far

By reaching for a star

And the solid ground we see

Put us where we should be

So close

Are we

Beyond a shadow of a doubt

God worked our situation out

Our purpose is clear

We hold it dear

We walk a line

Filled with sunshine

Every step we take

Is a memory we can make

We hold the memories close

Cause they matter most

We learn from the past

And make every moment last

Cause we’re so close

In A Way

In a way

I pray every day

I start each journey

By praising God only

Each journey takes me far

As I reach for a star

Sometimes I stumble

But experience keeps me humble

And things get better

I love life to the letter

In a way

I love to explore

What’s difficult to ignore

Right or wrong

Learning keeps me strong

I carry life lessons with me

They make me all I can be

It’s abundantly clear

God is always near

And I see what’s true

And all I’ve gone through

I see the world

Sitting on a string of pearls

It’s the key to my heart

It’s a great place to start

In a way

The Voice

The voice is God speaking clearly

He loves the world dearly

His voice guides and directs

It never rejects

It teaches lessons

That will lead to confessions

Right or wrong

It keeps the soul strong

And it looks in the eyes

And never lies

The voice is pure

It makes one secure

It has a plan

Which God reveals when He can

It reveals the purpose

Hiding underneath the surface

It takes a stand

While holding God’s hand

And never loses its clout

Or sow seeds of doubt

It also reflects a choice

It’s simply called the voice

From Trial To Triumph

We face each day

Come what may

The journey is real

Something we can’t conceal

We stumble from time to time

But we learn while in our prime

Obstacles come and go

But obstacles help us grow

We go through the fire

To obtain what we desire

Naysayers we ignore

Cause we’re filled to the core

We see what we’ll gain

Despite some stress and strain

Sometimes we cry

While wondering why

But we gain strength

After talking with God at length

After a lot of traveling

Without things unraveling

We see our purpose

Rise to the surface

It becomes clear

God is always near

He eases the mind

Peace we can find

As we move from

Trial to triumph

One Day

One day

Our dream will come true

It’ll uplift us through and through

God will reveal His plan

The only way He can

We’ll embark on a journey

Meant for us only

We’ll learn and grow

Then share what we know

And our purpose

Will rise to the surface

One day

We’ll clearly see

All we’re meant to be

God will remove the fear

And wipe every tear

We’ll reach our peak

Whenever we hear Him speak

We’ll reach a place

Filled with guidance and grace

And follow the word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

One day

We’ll take time

To remember our prime

The joy and laughter

We thought we were after

We’ll see life in its splendor

Our gratitude we won’t surrender

We’ll reach solid ground

We’ll  share the joy we found

And come what may

We’ll see it all

One day

With Every Beat Of My Heart

With every beat of my heart

I see you in my dreams

As strange as it seems

I long to hold you close

Closer than most

I think of your love

Just like heaven above

And one thing is clear

I’d love to have you near

With every beat of my heart

Thoughts of you complete me

I’m where I should be

God planted the seed

It’s a blessing indeed

I love you more than you know

The love has helped me grow

And I know for sure

You make me feel secure

Everything’s set in stone

Fate won’t leave me alone

Nothing will be concealed

A lot will be revealed

Right where I start

With every beat of my heart
