When We Rise

When we rise

Life begins anew

We see what God can do

We build new dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We get much stronger

As our journey gets longer

Our purpose becomes clear

We hold our faith near

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

God turns us around

Then puts us on solid ground

We count blessings galore

As God fills our core

We face every enemy

We see what’s meant to be

We see lessons learned

We see the stripes we’ve earned

We run our race

In a safe and secure place

We survive every storm

We break every norm

And we hold each other close

Cause love matters most

When we rise

We embrace the journey

Meant for us only

We fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

We share a smile

We laugh a little while

We hang on the word

We’ve always heard

We give as good as we get

With very little regret

And we do it again

Cause with faith we win

Holding On

We face every day

As God leads the way

Sometimes we stumble

But experience keeps us humble

We move without fear

Cause God almighty is near

He reveals what’s in stone

He never leaves us alone

We see our purpose

Lying at the surface

We build as we go

We share what we know

We face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Every dream comes alive

Faith helps us thrive

We feel weak

Until we hear God speak

We stand on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We hang on the encouraging word

We’ve always heard

We rest at home

Where our souls can roam

We pass every test

Just like all the rest

Faith helps us live

It teaches us to give

It teaches us to love

Just like heaven above

We remember who we are

As we reach for a star

God fights every enemy

We know what’s meant to be

We keep going

All while knowing

God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We share a smile

We laugh a little while

Life gets better

Cause we embrace it to the letter

We embrace every journey

Meant just for us only

We rejoice without hesitation

When we reach our final destination

Into You

You complete every day

In a very special way

When I hold you close

I see what matters most

Your tender kiss

I simply can’t resist

Your tender touch

Means so much

What I feel is real

Too hard to conceal

I carry my thoughts with me

I know we’re meant to be

Your love fills my soul

It makes me whole

You help me stand

With one touch of your hand

You are a blessing granted

I’ll water the seed I planted

You give me strength

Whenever we talk at length

You lift me up

You fill my cup

I feel brand new

I’m into you

You fill my space

With mercy and grace

You are the treasure I hold

You’re a story untold

You give me pleasure

Beyond all measure

You fill my dreams

Strange as it seems

You offer me more

Than I could ask for

You fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

You make me look ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Cause this journey is for two

I see what God can do

I call your name

I feel no shame

It helps me live

I have a lot to give

I feel brand new

I’m into you
