Still Standing

We face every day

As God makes a way

We stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

We’ve been scorned

Had our hearts torn

We’ve been shamed

We’ve been defamed

We’ve gotten turned around

Until God put us on solid ground

We’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

We’ve learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

We’ve grappled with doubt

Until God worked things out

We’ve grappled with fear

Until we saw God standing near

We’ve changed our view

After seeing what God can do

We’ve finally found peace

Our hearts can’t release

Our hearts run free

We know what’s meant to be

We know where to begin

We know faith helps us win

Prayer filled every soul

It made us whole

We feel God’s power

Hour after hour

We hang on God’s word

Cause it’s all we’ve heard

We’ve learned every journey

Is meant for us only

Our life lessons

Have become heartfelt confessions

We’re looking ahead

Without an ounce of dread

We follow the light

That shines day and night

We’ve seen every cloud

Moments that make us proud

God has delivered us

In Him we trust

We know where we’re landing

We’re still standing

When I’m With You

When I’m with you

I feel like morning dew

The moment is real

Too difficult to conceal

You hold me close

Cause bonding matters most

I feel a kiss

Too difficult to resist

I feel a touch

That means so much

You fill my soul

You make me whole

I rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

I hold a pot of gold

As my story is told

My heart is set free

I know what’s meant to be

I do a victory dance

Whenever I get a chance

I feel the love

Coming from heaven above

And life gets better

When I embrace it to the letter

When I’m with you

I know what God can do

I feel a peace

My hear can’t release

I embrace the journey

Meant for me only

I have something pure

I feel safe and secure

I have a gift

That gives me a lift

I rest in my home

I let my soul roam

I wear a smile

That last quite a whole

I stand on solid ground

I share the joy I found

I remove all doubt

I know what life’s about

I reach my peak

Whenever I hear you speak

And I know I can get through

When I’m with you

Hard Work

We get through every day

With God leading the way

We build as we go

Cause that helps us grow

We fall then rise again

But faith helps us win

Naysayers we ignore

As God fills us to the core

We gain a renewed strength

As we talk with God at length

God reveals our purpose

Before it rises to the surface

We stay on course

With very little remorse

We see what’s in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

We use our hands

We see where love stands

God carries us through

He sees what we do

Our work is real

Too difficult to conceal

From beginning to end

We never pretend

We take one step at a time

While still in our prime

We look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

Cause all we see

Is what’s meant to be

We build our blocks

We answer when God knocks

We remove all doubt

That God will work things out

We know what we hold

Our story will be told

We have a foundation

We move without hesitation

God removes every cloud

The moment makes us proud

We have a perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

We fill every chapter

With joy and laughter

And hard work

Where Our Love Lies

We share our days

In a lot of days

In a home

Where our souls roam

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

We hold each other close

Cause bonding matters most

Our four walls

Show faith never stalls

Our daily journey

Is meant for us only

The moments we share

The dreams we dare

All live in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We hang on God’s word

Cause that’s all we’ve heard

Every tender kiss

Is hard to resist

Every tender touch

Means so much

Both day and night

We share a love light

We keep going

All while knowing

God is with us

In Him we trust

We share a smile

We laugh a little while

We know what to ignore

As God fills us to the core

We have something pure

We feel safe and secure

We have a name

We feel no shame

We’ve learned to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We have God’s affection

We have His protection

Every day is brand new

We see what God can do

Our bond gets stronger

As our days get longer

It’s by design

So, everything is fine

We open our eyes

And see where our love lies
