Higher Ground

I pray consistently

Cause God listens to me

I proceed without fear

Cause my destiny is near

Some how, some way

I get stronger every day

I know I’ll survive

I’ll continue to thrive

Cause despite what comes around

I’ll reach higher ground

I’ll fall and rise gain

Faith will help me win

Despite the mistakes I make

God knows how much I can take

I stay on par

As I reveal every scar

It won’t take long

To see where I belong

Despite what comes around

I’ll reach higher ground

Naysayers will come and go

But Naysayers will help me grow

There’s no need to deny

Or wonder why

Cause I’m in my zone

God won’t leave me alone

I follow His lead

That’s a blessing indeed

Cause despite what comes around

I’ll reach higher ground

For Love

I’d search high and low

I’d let the past go

I’d move heaven and earth

I’d see what everything’s worth

I’d search the seven seas

I’d learn who to please

I’d search my heart

I’d learn where to start

For love

I’d bet my life

I’d let go of the strife

I’d give up my possessions

I’d make several confessions

I’d take my stance

I’d do a victory dance

I’d count every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

For love

I’d follow God’s will

I’d let the world stand still

I’d keep a guide

My face I wouldn’t hide

I’d catch a star

I’d travel far

I’d look at my peak

I’d let God speak

For love

On My Own

I rise each morning

As I face a new day

Blessings come my way

I’m never lonely

Cause I trust God only

He watches my every move

He has nothing to prove

I go through the fire

To obtain what I desire

Despite the pain

I see what I can gain

God is always there

With tender loving care

Right or wrong

He keeps me strong

My journey is a lesson

Here’s my confession

I see what’s meant to be

Faith brings out the best in me

I keep going

And I keep growing

Just like I should

God said I would

I’m in a good place

Due to God’s grace

I”m not alone

But I’m on my own

Still Here

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

And I’ve been defamed

I’ve been left to die

While wondering why

I’ve been left alone

With nothing to call my own

But I’m still here

I’ve been in despair

With no one to care

I’ve fallen to my knees

Not knowing who to please

I’ve been weak

Until I heard God speak

I’ve lost my way

But prayed every day

And  I’m still here

Free Bird

Free bird

As you move across the sky

I don’t wonder why

Cause I know it’s true

God chose you

To lead the way

I see it every day

You have direction

And plenty of protection

Spread your wings

You’ll learn a lot of things

Free bird

You’re a wonder to behold

Your story will be told

From front to back

There’s nothing you lace

You share a love

Sent by heaven above

You continue to grow

As you share what you know

You plant every seed

And that’s a blessing indeed

Free bird

No one can hide

What you make them feel inside

Your heart is real

You have a lot to reveal

It’ll be the best anyone’s ever heard

Free bird

In Your Eyes

In your eyes I see love

As soft as a dove

They seem so pure

They make me feel secure

I see tender loving care

It’s what we share

I see joy and laughter

Which is all I’m after

In your eyes I see peace

That I’ll never release

They brighten my day

I’ll never take that away

I see nothing but purpose

It’s finally come to the surface

I see your heart

Which was present from the start

In your eyes I see a path

I’ll never suffer God’s wrath

I see His vision

I can complete my mission

I see what’s in stone

He won’t leave me alone

I see me at my best

I’ll forget the rest

I see your hand

I know where I stand

So it’s no surprise

What I see in your eyes

Day After Day

Day after day

Blessings come my way

They are a sign

That everything is fine

God watches over me

He shows me what can be

My faith grows

As He shares what He knows

I’m taken to a better place

As I bask in God’s grace

Day after day

I embark on a journey

Ordained by God only

It teaches me lessons

As I make my confessions

One thing becomes clear

My destiny is near

I see God’s plan

He told me I can

I ignore naysayers

Instead I say my prayers

Day after day

God directs my path

I never suffer His wrath

He holds my heart

From the moment I start

He makes life complete

As He shares a love so sweet

He fills me to the core

Then offers me more

He delivers His word

It’s the best I’ve ever heard

And I understand God’s way

Day after day
