Heartbeat

We feel the heartbeat

It’s where our souls and God meet

We feel the beat of love

As sent from heaven above

The beat of the hand

That touches where we stand

The beat of the journey

Meant for us only

The beat of what we feel

And what we can’t conceal

The beat of pleasant days

And how we changed our ways

We feel the heartbeat

As we sit in our seat

We feel the beat of the time

We remembered our prime

The beat of our second chance

And when we did our victory dance

The beat of the purpose

Rising to the surface

The beat of a prayer

Showing God was there

And we feel the heartbeat

As we sit in our seat

Like You

I’ve traveled far

Without getting a scar

I’ve seen a great deal

Had a lot to reveal

I’ve worked every day

In my own way

I’ve been here before

I’ve seen much more

I’ve been turned around

Didn’t know what I found

I’ve seen a few

But no one like you

I’ve found rare things

I know what life brings

I’ve seen a heart

Get a brand new start

I’ve seen true love

As well as heaven above

I’ve taken time

To remember my prime

I’ve seen a rose

After striking a pose

I’ve seen the sun

Just as it begun

I’ve seen a few

But no one like you

Happiness

Happiness is real

It’s showing what you feel

Happiness is love

Sent by heaven above

Happiness is sitting still

As you accept God’s will

Happiness is opening your heart

As you get a new start

Happiness is letting go of fear

Knowing God is near

Happiness is finding peace

You can’t release

Happiness is the journey

Meant for you only

Happiness is ignoring naysayers

As you say your prayers

Happiness is the purpose

Rising to the surface

Happiness is set in stone

God won’t leave you alone

Happiness is the plan

God reveals when he can

Happiness rings true

Happiness is you

All Night

All night I prayed

All night peace stayed

I had a talk with God

I gave Him a wink and nod

I suddenly found strength

As we talked at length

He filled me to the core

Then offered me more

I saw something for me

Something meant to be

And a better way

To live every day

All night I traveled

My truth suddenly unraveled

I saw my purpose

Rise to the surface

My heart opened wide

As I followed my guide

It felt very real

There was nothing to conceal

God carried me through

I learned what to do

Experience opened my eyes

It was a big surprise

And I finally saw the light

All night

Again

We faced our naysayers

As we said our prayers

We learned that God answers every call

Winter, spring, summer and fall again

We embraced a journey

Meant for us only again

We gained strength

By talking with God at length again

We’ve turned our lives around

Then found solid ground again

We found our purpose

Rising to the surface again

We’ve learned to count blessings

Without a lot of stressing again

We’ve learned to be still

As we accept God’s will again

We’ve learned to cherish our days

In a lot of ways again

We’ve learned to hold hands

Right where love stands again

We’ve learned to live

And we’ve learned to give

Again
