Old Folks Say

I hear old folks say

God will make a way

He fights every enemy

He’ll reveal what’s meant to be

I hear old folks say

An answered prayer

Shows God is there

He’ll turn everyone around

Put everyone on solid ground

I hear old folks say

We’ll gain strength

By talking with God at length

His encouraging word

Deserves to be heard

I hear old folks say

Our divine purpose

Is lying at the surface

We can build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

I hear old folks say

Our daily journey

Is meant just for us only

God will fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

I hear old folks say

They hold their faith close

Cause faith matters most

God will set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

I hear old folks say

God will change our name

Then remove our shame

We must ignore our naysayers

As we say our prayers

I hear old folks say

We can start over again

Cause with faith we’ll win

We can survive any storm

We can break every norm

I hear old folks say

In heaven above

We’ll find true love

We’ll receive perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

I hear old folks say

We’ll see what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

In every way

I hear old folks say

Red Roses

We bond every day

As God leads the way

What we have is real

Too difficult to conceal

We hold each other close

Cause love matters most

Faith fills us to the core

Before God offers us more

We build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We rest at home

Where our souls can roam

Every tender kiss

Is hard to resist

Every tender touch

Means so much

Our moments of pleasure

We cherish beyond measure

We do a love dance

To celebrate our romance

Our hearts beat as one

We see what God has done

We share a smile

We laugh a little while

What a dream come true

We trade red roses through and through

We embrace this journey

Cause it’s for us only

We look at heaven above

And see nothing but love

We fulfill every purpose

Lying at the surface

We get stronger as we go

We share what we know

We reach our peak

Whenever we hear God speak

We know what’s for us

In God we trust

We look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

We stand on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We travel far

As we heal every scar

We have perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

What a dream come true

We trade red roses through and through
