Yesterday

Yesterday

We completed a journey

Meant just for us only

We said a prayer

Thanking God for being there

We learned lessons

That are now heartfelt confessions

We built our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We looked all around

Then shared the joy we found

We saw our purpose

Rise to the surface

We found a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We learned what to ignore

As God filled us to the core

We looked straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We learned to stand

As we took God’s hand

We passed another test

Just like all the rest

We changed our view

After seeing what God can do

We learned our name

We let go of our shame

We shared a smile

That lasted a while

We saw what we’d gain

Through heartache and pain

We held each other close

Cause love matters most

We completed our mission

With crystal clear vision

We prepared for another day

Knowing God would lead the way

We saw something real

Too difficult to conceal

We lifted one voice

Then began to rejoice

We saw what’s in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

Yesterday

The Treasure We Hold

The treasure we hold

Is worth more than gold

It fills our days

With God’s loving ways

It holds us close

Cause love matters most

It makes our purpose clear

So, we move without fear

It gives us strength

When we talk with God at length

It’s the tender kiss

We simply can’t resist

It’s the tender touch

That means so much

It offers us something pure

It makes us feel secure

Our souls are free

We know we’re meant to be

What we have is real

Too difficult to conceal

We look in each other’s eyes

Then see a wonderful surprise

And every chapter

Is filled with joy and laughter

The treasure we hold

Has given us more

Than we could ask for

We stand on solid ground

As we share the joy we found

We hang on God’s word

Cause that’s all we’ve heard

We enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We continue our mission

With crystal clear vision

We lie face to face

With God’s mercy and grace

We’ve learned to live

We’ve learned to give

We’ve learned to love

Just like heaven above

We have perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

It’s worth more than gold

The treasure we hold

Serenity

Serenity, sweet serenity

Means the world to me

I feel God’s presence

And all His essence

I relish the peace

My heart won’t release

I see what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave me alone

I see my purpose

Lying at the surface

I see a silent prayer

All the dreams I dare

I see the journey

Meant just for me only

I see my solid ground

All the joy I found

I continue to rest

While passing every test

I wear a smile

That last quite a while

My soul has no doubt

That things will work out

Life is better

Cause I embrace it to the letter

Serenity, sweet serenity

Means the world to me

I watch God move

He has nothing to prove

I build new dreams

Until I burst at the seams

God sees my soul

He makes me whole

I know what to ignore

As God fills me to the core

I have moments of pleasure

I cherish beyond measure

I feel something pure

I feel safe and secure

I know my name

I feel no shame

God’s encouraging word

Is all I’ve heard

I’ve changed my view

I know what God can do

I look ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing my serenity

Means the world to me
