When I’m with you

My soul runs free

I see what’s meant to be

My days last longer by the hour

As I feel God’s power

I feel you hold me close

Like I matter most

You put me on solid ground

I share the joy I found

I learn to smile

I even laugh a little while

My heart removes fear

As I see you standing near

I learn to stand

As I hold your hand

I rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

You give something pure

You make me feel secure

And I change my view

When I’m with you

The looking glass

Shows all our days

God’s loving ways

The daily journey

Meant for us only

How we gain strength

After talking with God at length

The encouraging word

We’ve always heard

What’s set in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

How faith removed all doubt

That God would work things out

The naysayers we ignore

How God fills us to the core

Things we know are real

What the heart can’t conceal

How we hold each other close

Why love matters most

The beautiful home

Where our souls roam

How we pass every test

Just like all the rest

The life lessons

That have become heartfelt confessions

And how we change our view

After seeing what God can do

In Your Arms

I spend my days with you

Cause it’s all I want to do

You fill me to the core

Leave me begging for more

You give me moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

The touch of your hand

Shows me where you stand

Your love fills my soul

You make me whole

As you hold me close

I see what matters most

You make me smile

Even laugh a little while

The moments we share

And the dreams we dare

Show what’s in stone

Your love never leaves me alone

You are the light

I follow day and night

You’re part of the journey

Meant for me only

You give me something to hold

Our story will be told

You taught me to live

I see how much you give

You give me a home

Where my soul can roam

You are the key

To what’s meant to be

The sound of your voice

Makes me rejoice

You keep me strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

You fill me with your charms

While I’m in your arms

Better Days

We continue the journey

Meant for us only

We fall and rise again

Knowing with faith we’ll win

We search high and low

For what will help us grow

We learn what to ignore

As God fills us to the core

We take one step at a time

While still in our prime

We ignore our naysayers

As we say our prayers

We grapple with doubt

But God works things out

We finally find a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We hang on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

God reveals what’s in stone

We realize we’re not alone

We change our ways

As we prepare for better days

We find a home

Where our souls can roam

We look straight ahead

While grappling with dread

Until God reveals His plan

As only He can

We turn ourselves around

Then find solid ground

We change our view

When we see what God can do

We find a moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

We hold each other close

Cause our bond matters most

We learn how to live

How to give

And how to love

Just like heaven above

And we change our ways

As we prepare for better days
