The Boy I Left Behind

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

We met on a warm, sunny day

Trouble seemed far away

Yet, we took  a chance

As we did a lover’s dance

Love was what we thought we knew

It wasn’t enough to carry us through

I wonder what would have been

And I wonder what I’ll find

If I go back to the boy I left behind

He was gracious and loved me to the letter

There’s truly no one better

My views were slanted

I took him for granted

Now all I have are memories

Of what used to be

I wonder what would have been

And I wonder what I’ll find

If I go back to the boy I left behind

He stays in my thoughts and dreams

Until I fall apart at the seams

I miss his touch

Because it means so much

I may never get him back again

Yet, I’ll say

As I continue on my way

I wonder what would have been

And I wonder what I’ll find

If I go back to the boy I left behind

 

Your Presence

Dear God

Your presence fills me to the core

I know you offer much more

You dry every tear

And ease every fear

You keep me strong

As I move along

Oh God

Your presence is a guiding light

You make my dark days bright

Your love is sweeter than a dove

And sent from heaven above

It’s easy to see

You are always with me

Oh God

With your presence you provide peace

A peace I won’t release

With you I stand

As you hold my hand

You make crooked things straight

Oh God

You are great

Morning Glory

flowers-garden-colorful-colourful

I feel the rays of the sun when I awake

Knowing God didn’t make a mistake

I embrace the blessings granted

And water the seeds planted

I look forward instead of the opposite direction

God has offered me protection

There’s no need to worry

I’m basking in the morning glory

I travel down the path God laid

And thank Him for the sacrifices He made

My purpose is clear

And I hold it dear

I bask in my guiding light

It makes my days bright

There’s no need to worry

I’m basking in the morning glory

I stick to God’s plan

As He holds my hand

It was meant to be

That I can see

I’ll never let it go

It’ll help me grow

There’s no need to worry

I”m basking in the morning glory

Ordinary Love

We’ve been through the fire

Down to the wire

We’ve been through several storms

Only to break all norms

God has been with us

For in Him we trust

As sure as there’s a heaven above

Ours is no ordinary love

We embrace what we feel to the core

Knowing that God offers us more

Through some pain

We have a lot to gain

What we have is real

That we can’t conceal

As sure as there’s a heaven above

Ours  is no ordinary love

We allow each other to be

That’s no mystery

Without a doubt

We sort things out

Our bond is tight

We work to make it right

As sure as there’s a heaven above

Ours is no ordinary love

We’ll continue our  journey

It was ordained by God only

Our life together is a culmination

I say without hesitation

As sure as there’s a heaven above

Ours  is no ordinary love
