Where Love Grows

The heart is where love grows

That’s all the mind knows

Love fills every day

In its own special way

It makes us see

What’s truly meant to be

It lifts us up

It fills every cup

It’s a sign from God

We give Him a wink and nod

It gives us strength

When we talk at length

And it fills the heart

From the very start

The soul is where love grows

It keeps us strong

Whether we’re right or wrong

It raises a voice

As we begin to rejoice

It takes time

To remember our prime

It is a blessing

We count without stressing

It takes us far

Without leaving a scar

It always inspires

As it fuels our desires

It gives us direction

And plenty of protection

It offers solid ground

It’s the joy we’ve found

It offers a place

Filled with mercy and grace

It is something to behold

It is a story we’ve told

It’s very rare

It shows we care

And God knows

Where love grows

Here I Stand

Here I stand

With my heart in my hand

I long to hold you close

Cause our bond matters most

I want to feel your heartbeat

Right where our minds meet

I want to hear your voice

It makes me rejoice

You are a sight to behold

You’re a story untold

I long to dance with you

You’re a dream come true

I think of you every day

In a very special way

You are the seed

That leads to a good deed

Through you I see

What’s truly meant to be

You make me reveal

What my heart can’t conceal

Here I stand

With my heart in my hand

I long to feel your love

Just like heaven above

You are the gift

That gives me a lift

It’s part of a plan

God reveals when He can

You make me smile

The smile last quite awhile

You are the light

I follow day and night

You are the journey

Meant for me only

So here I stand

With my heart in my hand

He Is

He is a gift

That gives us a lift

He is the love

That comes from above

He is the peace

We simply can’t release

He is the power

We feel hour after hour

He is the voice

We hear when we rejoice

He is the solid ground

We’re glad we’ve found

He is a place

Filled with mercy and grace

He is something to behold

He is the story we’ve told

He is our strength

We feel it at length

He is peace of mind

Something hard to find

He is something pure

He makes us feel secure

He is the seed

That’s a blessing indeed

He is our affection

As well as our protection

He is our soul

He makes life whole

He is the way

We live every day

He is the smile

That last a little while

He is the journey

Meant for us only

He is the pride

We simply cannot hide

He is the song

That keeps us strong

He is the reason

For every season

He is

Sitting Still

I’m sitting still

As I accept God’s will

I hear His voice in the distance

I offer no resistance

I think of blessings granted

I think of seeds I’ve planted

I think of better days

How I changed my ways

A love so true

What God brought me through

How I fall and rise again

How God teaches me to win

All the love I know

Ways I’ve learned to grow

I’m sitting still

As I accept God’s will

It takes me to a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Fear begins to fade

I see the progress I’ve made

I embark on a new journey

Meant for me only

I stay fully aware

Of God’s tender loving care

I learn to smile

Even laugh a little while

I see the steps I take

I see the memories I make

My voice I raise

In a song of praise

I hold God’s hand

Right where I stand

I hear my mouth reveal

What my heart can’t conceal

I get filled to the core

As God offers me more

And I’m sitting still

As I accept God’s will

Separate Ways

We’ve given all our days

In so many ways

The moments we shared

Showed how much we cared

We danced to one heartbeat

Where every soul should meet

We knew the love was real

Much too difficult to conceal

It traveled far

Without leaving a scar

It was for all to see

It was meant to be

It made us strong

Whether we were right or wrong

Then after those days

We went our separate ways

We embraced a journey

Meant for two only

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

We held hands

Right where love stands

The journey took us everywhere

The hand of God was there

We couldn’t deny

We didn’t even ask why

We had a bond

From here and beyond

It helped shape us

We knew who to trust

We ran our race

At our own pace

It removed our fear

God almighty was near

We were in our zone

God never left us alone

We took time

To remember our prime

It made us smile

Even laugh a little while

Then after those days

We went our separate ways
