Much To Gain

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

I’ve endured more than I can say

But God has been with me every day

The road is long

But I remain strong

God is my guide

My faith I can’t hide

I’ll make it plain

I have much to gain

Every moment teaches me about myself

I learn with God’s help

There’s a purpose for what I go through

Keep the faith is what I do

It’s the center of my life

Despite all the strife

I’ll make it plain

I have much to gain

I continue my  journey

It was ordained by God only

He makes crooked places straight

He taught me to be great

I have no regrets

Life is as good as it gets

I’ll make it plain

I have much to gain

I feel my power

Hour upon hour

I stay in prayer

Because God is there

My path has been laid

I thank God for the sacrifices He made

I’ll make it plain

I have much to gain

Home

Home

The place where my soul can roam

Where Everything is set in stone

And my thoughts won’t leave me alone

The place where I can make memories

And do as I please

Home

A place filled with love, comfort and security

I can relax and be me

A place where God appears every day

And shows me the way

There’s no doubt He has a plan

I’ll hold His hand

Home

My refuge, shelter and sanctuary

I can release the burdens I carry

This is no mystery

It was meant to be

I emerge stronger than before

And believe me there’s more

Home

A special place indeed

Filled with tips to help me succeed

It helps me with what’s outside

My joy I can’t hide

I’m surrounded with love

From heaven above

I want to say humbly before I roam

That I thank God for my home

Nobody Greater

Oh God

You’re always with us every step of the way

To you we pray every day

You are a light in dark places

You fill empty spaces

You’re one of a kind

You can ease a troubled mind

For we realize that no matter what we go through

There’s nobody greater than you

Oh God

We know we have a purpose

It has come to the surface

You keep us strong

As we move along

We know what’s true

Thanks to you

For we realize that despite what we go through

There’s nobody greater than you

Oh God

Thank you for loving, teaching and guiding us

In you we trust

We know everything is for the good

We wouldn’t change it if we could

You know what’s best

You’re better than the rest

For we realize that despite what we go through

There’s nobody greater than you

My Journey

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

My journey has been filled with ups and downs

My journey  has  been filled with changes and turn arounds

Yet God has been with me every step of the way

As I’ve prayed every day

My journey has been long

But God has kept me strong

He never left me

He unveiled every mystery

My journey has a purpose

I saw it come to the surface

It was pre-planned

I know where I stand

My journey isn’t complete

I have much further to go

I’ll share what I know

My journey will help me remain secure

My journey will keep my heart pure

Faith and prayer will be the seeds planted

I’ll take nothing for granted

My journey doesn’t cause me shame

I know my name

I’ll stay on the right road

My burdens I’ll unload

As I complete my journey

In Retrospect

In retrospect

I remember the day we met

I thought life was as good as it could get

We did a lover’s dance

As we met by chance

We thought things wouldn’t get any better

We loved each other to the letter

In retrospect

I remember the conversations we had

They always made me glad

They reflected our love

Sent from heaven above

We held hands

As we made plans

We knew the deal

What we felt was real

In retrospect

We continued our journey

Ordained by  God only

We forged ahead

While praying instead

I don’t know where time went

Seems we’ve become spent

As I look back with respect

I’ll remember you

And all God carried us through

In retrospect
