In Our Own Way

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

In our own way

We grow closer every day

We follow God’s lead

And we’re blessed indeed

Our hearts are pure

We feel safe and secure

We share a great deal

And we live it with zeal

In our own way

We face trials and tribulations

Without hesitation

We gain strength

By talking with God at length

We feel a love

Sent from heaven above

We’ll finish our race

With God’s guidance and grace

In our own way

We learn many lessons

We make many confessions

We’re on solid ground

Thanks to the joy we’ve found

Our  journey is something to behold

Our story will be told

We’ll fill each other to the core

Then give each other more

Without a doubt

We’ll work things out

We’ll love each other more each day

In our own way

 

 

Still Here

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve endured heartache and pain

To see what I could gain

I’ve fallen and risen again

But faith showed me where to begin

And I’m still here

Some thought I wouldn’t last long

But prayer has kept me strong

I’ve been scorned

I’ve had my heart torn

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

But I’m still here

I’ve had rough patches along the way

But I get better every day

Sometimes I cry

But I understand why

I’ve learned many lessons

I’ve  made several confessions

And I’m still here

Life has made me who I am

It isn’t a sham

The world will see

The real me

Without fear

I decree and declare

I’m still here

Peace

I’ve had a lot of heartaches

I’ve had a lot of headaches

I’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

I’ve gone through more than you know

My experiences have helped me grow

Therefore, I am at peace

I though I wouldn’t last long

But faith keeps me strong

I’ve been shamed

I’ve been defamed

But I’m the one God claims

Therefore, I am at peace

Nothing will change the way I feel

I live it with zeal

I have a clear view

Of what God’s brought me through

He’s turned me around

Put my feet on solid ground

Therefore, I am at peace

 

Mirror Of My Mind

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

As I look in the mirror of my mind

I see everything I left behind

Prayer pulls me through

And I change my point of view

I continue to grow

As I share what I know

As I look in the mirror  of my mind

I learn many lessons along the way

And I get stronger every day

It may seem strange

But everything’s changed

Life is grand

I’ll hold God’s unchanging hand

As I look in the mirror of my mind

I see that God is one of a kind

His heart is pure

He makes me feel secure

He’s turned me around

And put my feet on solid ground

As I look in the mirror of my mind

I see what’s meant to be

Life won’t get the best of me

I’ve embarked on a journey

Ordained by God only

He’s made His will clear

I hold it dear

From the very start

I acknowledge what’s in my heart

As I look in the mirror of my mind

Stolen Moments

Stolen moments with you

Thrill me through and through

We hold each other close

When we need it most

The things we share

Let me know you care

To know you is a pleasure

Beyond all measure

Stolen moments with you

Are sweeter than morning dew

Thank God for the day

You came my way

Only death will make us part

You’ll always have my heart

It’s easy to see

We’re meant to be

Stolen moments with you

Are a journey to the unknown

I see how we’ve grown

Some thought we wouldn’t last long

But faith has kept us strong

We’re in a better place

Due to God’s guidance and grace

He planted the seed

So let’s take heed

Ours is a love

Sent from heaven above

There’s nothing I’d rather do

Than share stolen moments with you
