To Be Loved

To be loved is a gift

Guaranteed to heal and uplift

It’s a warm embrace

Any time, any place

It’s a tender touch

That means so much

It’s God’s plan

He knows we can

It’s a journey

Ordained by God only

To be loved

Is good for the soul

It makes us whole

It’s a beautiful day

That touches in a special way

It puts a move on the heart

Right from the start

Love keeps us strong

We know where we belong

Love takes a stand

While holding God’s hand

Love knows what to do

It carries us through

We can rejoice

In a loud voice

Cause it feels good to be loved

Turned The Tables

I’m not the girl I used to be

A change has come over me

Old things have passed away

And I celebrate each day

As life and love anew

I’ve changed my point of view

As I let go of fear

It becomes abundantly clear

That I’ve let go of fables

And finally turned the tables

I’ve changed my look

One chance was all it took

I’ve become bold

I have a hand to hold

I’ve let go of the past

In favor of moments that will last

I see my purpose

Coming to the surface

Now I can stand tall

In the midst of it all

Cause I’ve let go of fables

And finally turned the tables

The Night I Fell In Love

The night I fell in love

Felt like heaven above

God brought us close

Cause it mattered most

It was our first chance

To do a lover’s dance

We could clearly see

We were meant to be

We held hands

As we walked across dry lands

There is nothing to regret

That’s a moment I’ll never forget

The night I fell in love

Was filled to the core

With everything I adore

Our hearts became one

Until the night was done

The very next day

God showed us the way

Our purpose became clear

And we hold it dear

What we feel is real

And we have a lot to reveal

It’s certainly something to cherish

We’ll never perish

It’s more than right

It’s a beautiful sight

And I won’t forget

The night I fell in love

After Midnight

After midnight I say a prayer

I see signs that God is there

Right from the start

He warms my heart

He dries every tear

And eases every fear

He clears up confusion

And it isn’t an illusion

He has a plan

He tells me I can

The next day

He sends me on my way

He fills me to the core

Then offers me more

Yes, He’s my guide

My gratitude I can’t hide

I continue my journey

With Him only

I love Him with all my might

It’s a wonderful sight

And I bask in His light

After midnight

For Life

You stand by me

In all your glory

You brighten every day

In a very special way

God revealed His plan

And clearly stated we can

Faith has been our guide

That we can’t hide

We stand on solid ground

Thanks to the joy we found

And I will love you for life

Some thought we wouldn’t last

But we’ve learned from the past

It’s certainly true

God has brought us through

We’ve  held each other close

When it matters most

Despite some hurt and pain

We’ve seen what we’ll gain

We’re in the right place

By God’s grace

And I will love you for life

Living Inside Myself

Every day

Is a journey

ordained by God only

I don’t move in fear

Cause my God is near

The journey is a lesson

I’ll make a confession

It was meant to be

That I can definitely see

I stumble here and there

But God provides tender loving care

I gain strength and purpose

I see them come to the surface

I’m on a mission

I have clear cut vision

God will lead the way

He’s present every day

I go through the fire

To obtain what I desire

I begin to grow

As I share what I know

I learn from the past

As I make every moment last

From beginning to end

I don’t pretend

That I’m living inside myself
