The Trials We Face

We face every day

While trying to find our way

We stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

We grapple with doubt

Until God works things out

We wonder what’s for us

But in God we trust

We feel weak

Until we hear God speak

We get turned around

Before God puts us on solid ground

We learn what to ignore

As God fills us to the core

We grapple with fear

Until we see God standing near

We search for peace

Our hearts won’t release

Suddenly we find our purpose

Lying at the surface

We give as good as we get

With very little regret

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We learn how to live

We learn how to give

We learn how to love

Just like heaven above

We change our view

After seeing what God can do

We search for a home

Where our souls can roam

Until God offers us a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We learn to let go

Of what we used to know

Suddenly God lifts us up

Then fills our cup

We continue our fight

As we follow our guiding light

We arrive at our final destination

Then pray without hesitation

We lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

Cause we started anew

We feel like morning dew

Precious Moments

Loving each other every day

Knowing God made a way

Holding each other close

Cause bonding matters most

Sharing a kiss

We simply can’t resist

Feeling a touch

That means so much

Our hearts beating as one

Cause we see what God has done

Sharing a smile

Even laughing a little while

Sharing a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Doing a love dance

To celebrate our romance

Taking a journey

Ordained by God only

Standing on a solid foundation

Without much hesitation

Remembering who we are

As we reach for a star

Planting the seeds

That lead to good deeds

Cherishing what we hold

As our story is told

Hanging on God’s word

Cause that’s all we’ve heard

God offering us a home

Where our souls can roam

Seeing what’s real

Something we can’t conceal

Ignoring our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Building our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

Faith lifting us up

Then filling our cup

Counting blessings galore

Until we’re filled to the core

Embracing something new

Feeling like morning dew

Looking straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Knowing God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

Doing it all again

Knowing with faith we’ll win

Cherishing what we share

Cause God is always there

In Our Lifetime

In our lifetime

We’ll remember lovely days

God’s loving ways

Every ordained journey

Meant for us only

The silent prayer

That showed God is there

Falling and rising again

Knowing with faith we’d win

The moment our purpose

Rose to the surface

Building our dreams

Until we burst at the seams

The life lessons learned

All the stripes we’ve earned

The beautiful home

Where our souls can roam

The encouraging word

That deserves to be heard

When we learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

When we planted seeds

That led to good deeds

The victory dance

After our second chance

In our lifetime

We’ll lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

We’ll find perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

We’ll learn what to ignore

As God fills us to the core

We’ll get much stronger

As our days get longer

We’ll find a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We’ll give as good as we get

With very little regret

We’ll stay on course

With very little remorse

Knowing God set our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We’ll look into our hearts

To see where love starts

We’ll hold hands

Right where love stands

Knowing what’s for us

As we see the God we trust

We’ll remember our prime

In our lifetime

Someone Like You

You fill every day

In a loving way

You give me peace

My heart won’t release

You fill me to the core

Before you offer me more

You fill my dreams

Strange though it seems

You help me stand

With one touch of your hand

You show me what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

I have no doubt

Things will work out

You are the light

I follow day and night

You reveal what’s in stone

I know I’m not alone

You make me smile

Even laugh a little while

You’ve given me a home

Where my soul can roam

I know what I can do

With someone like you

You lift me up

You fill my cup

You’ve opened my eyes

To a wonderful surprise

Your tender kiss

I simply can’t resist

Every love dance

Celebrates our romance

You’ve turned me around

Put me on solid ground

Love is the divine purpose

We saw lying at the surface

I can live again

With faith I can win

You soothe my soul

You make me whole

Faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

I share what I know

Our love will continue to grow

I carry you everywhere

It’s tender loving care

I can make it through

With someone like you
