The Battle

We face every day

As God leads the way

God wipes our tears

He removes our fears

As we embark on a journey

Meant just for us only

We gain strength

While talking at length

Our naysayers we ignore

As God fills our core

Faith makes us see

What’s truly meant to be

God sets our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We fall then rise again

Knowing faith helps us win

We see unconditional love

Come from heaven above

We see our purpose

Lying at the surface

God turns us around

Puts us on solid ground

The enemy starts a fight

God becomes our guiding light

We get stronger

As our journey gets longer

Cause we know what’s for us

In God we trust

We grapple with doubt

Until God works things out

We see a silent prayer

Shows God is there

We see life lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

We sit still

As we accept God’s will

We find something pure

God makes us feel secure

We see God’s plan

He does what He can

We build as we go

We share what we know

We get a new name

God removes our shame

We do a victory dance

To celebrate our second chance

God heals every soul

He makes life whole

During the battle

Gentle

I feel your touch

One that means so much

I feel your heartbeat with mine

I know everything is fine

I see sunny days

All God’s loving ways

I see our purpose

Lying at the surface

I know this journey

Is meant just for us only

I feel brand new

As I get closer to you

I see what’s in stone

Love won’t leave me alone

I look in your eyes

And see a wonderful surprise

You give me peace

My heart won’t release

I enjoy moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

I cherish the blessing granted

I’ll water the seeds I’ve planted

Your touch heals my soul

It makes me whole

I hear you whisper softly

I know we’re meant to be

Every moment is real

Something we can’t conceal

What we have is pure

It makes me feel secure

You fill my core

Before you offer me more

I see nothing but love

Coming from heaven above

We stand side by side

With nothing to hide

As we build our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

We do a love dance

To celebrate our romance

Our bond gets stronger

As our journey gets longer

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

We rest in a home

Where our souls can roam

You don’t pretend

You’re gentle until the end
