Answered Prayers

We spend every day

Counting blessings along the way

We travel far

As we heal every scar

We stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

We learn as we go

We share what we know

Our life lessons

Have become heartfelt confessions

We know what to ignore

God has filled us to the core

We build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We stay close to God

By offering a wink and nod

We strike a few poses

As we stop and smell the roses

We know what we hold

Our story will be told

We stand tall

Cause God answers every call

Every journey is for us

In Him we trust

Life gets better

Cause we embrace it to the letter

We see faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

We ignore our naysayers

As we say our prayers

We look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We’ve changed our view

Cause we know what God can do

We have a new name

We feel no shame

We have a home

Where our souls can roam

We lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

God fills every place

With amazing grace

And answered prayers

True Love

We’ve shared many days

In a lot of ways

We’ve lived and learned

Many stripes we’ve earned

We’ve fulfilled the purpose

Lying at the surface

We’ve held each other close

Cause bonding matters most

We feel something pure

We feel safe and secure

We’ve gotten turned around

But we landed on solid ground

We found a home

Where our souls can roam

We’ve found strength

By talking with God at length

We’re on a mission

We have crystal clear vision

God gave us a place

To run our race

We look each other in the eyes

Then find a wonderful surprise

Every moment is real

Too difficult to conceal

We look at heaven above

And find true love

We’ve traveled far

Just to reach a star

We have a treasure

We cherish beyond measure

We lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

We see what’s in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

We know what to ignore

Cause God has filled us to the core

We stand together without fear

Almighty God is standing near

We hang on His words

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We continue to grow

As we share what we know

We continue to bond

From here and beyond

We look at heaven above

Then see true love

Solid Ground

We get through every day

As God leads the way

We stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

We learn as we go

We share what we know

We get much stronger

As our journey gets longer

Cause God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We know what to ignore

We’re filled to the core

We build new dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We find moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We learn to stand

As we take God’s hand

We rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

We have no doubt

That God will work things out

God turned us around

Then put us on solid ground

We pass every test

Just like all the rest

We embrace every journey

Meant for us only

We carry our faith with us

In God we trust

We know what we hold

Our story will be told

We feel nothing but love

Coming from heaven above

We’ve changed our view

We know what God can do

We continue our mission

With crystal clear vision

We share a smile

The smile lasts a while

We’ll keep going

All while knowing

We have a divine purpose

Lying at the surface

God turned us around

Then put us on solid ground

Once Upon A Time

Once upon a time

While still in our prime

We shared all our days

God’s loving ways

We talked about dreams

That made us burst at the seams

We saw our purpose

Lying at the surface

We gained strength

While talking with God at length

God turned us around

Put us on solid ground

We let go of our fear

While God stood near

We learned life lessons

That became heartfelt confessions

We held hands

Right where love stands

We looked straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We lifted one voice

Before we began to rejoice

Once upon a time

While still in our prime

We hung on the word

We’ve always heard

We looked into our hearts

Then saw where love starts

We found a home

Where our souls can roam

We found a place

To run our race

God gave us a name

We let go of our shame

We opened our eyes

To a wonderful surprise

We struck a few poses

While smelling the roses

We began again

Knowing with faith we’d win

We simply let go

Of what we used to know

God was there

With tender loving care

Once upon a time
