Open Arms

As I stand here

I long to hold you near

I dream of you every day

Wouldn’t have it any other way

What I feel is real

Too difficult to conceal

God planted the seeds of love

It feels like heaven above

I hold the moment close

Cause it matters most

Love lifted me up

Then filled my cup

Thoughts of you fill me to the core

Leave me begging for more

It’s a moment of pleasure

I cherish beyond measure

No matter the time or place

All I see is your face

I think of you and smile

Even laugh a little while

I call your name

I feel no shame

I can’t resist your charms

Open arms

I long to feel your soul

Cause it makes me whole

You are my destiny

I know we’re meant to be

The sound of your voice

Makes me rejoice

I have no doubt

That God will work things out

I cherish this journey

Cause it’s meant for me only

I long for your affection

As well as protection

It’s just a plan

God will reveal when He can

I’ve changed my view

Cause I see what God can do

Love helped me stand

I long to hold your hand

Open arms

Reflections

Thinking of our past

How we made every moment last

Seeing how we made it through

Wonderful things God can do

Thinking of our love

Which comes from heaven above

The moment meant for us

The God we trust

Thinking of our victory dance

And our second chance

What God set in stone

Why He never leaves us alone

Thinking of the purpose

We saw lying at the surface

The perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

How faith fills every soul

What makes life whole

Thinking of the home

Where our souls freely roam

How we reach our peak

Whenever we hear God speak

Every lovely day

Every time we pray

Thinking of the encouraging word

We’ve always heard

Thinking of the things we share

All the dreams we dare

The wide smile

That last quite a while

When we reached solid ground

All the joy we found

All the blessings God granted

All the seeds we planted

The moment we learned to stand

As we took God’s hand

What we know is real

Too difficult to conceal

The guiding light

We follow day and night

When we looked into our hearts

To see where love starts

What is basically by design

Why everything is fine

Reflections

Slow Dance

We danced to the melody

We knew it was meant to be

Our souls became one

We saw what God had done

The moment was real

Too difficult to conceal

We held each other close

Cause bonding matters most

The moment filled us to the core

Before God offered us more

We cherished our moment of pleasure

Beyond all measure

God planted a seed

To a blessing indeed

We built a new dream

Strange as it may seem

It gave us a thrill

Cause it was God’s will

We embraced the journey

Meant for us only

Love showed us the way

There was nothing more to say

We felt God’s power

Hour after hour

Life got better

Cause we embraced it to the letter

We saw what was in stone

We realized we weren’t alone

We found something pure

We felt safe and secure

We shared a smile

That lasted quite a while

We finally let go

Of what we used to know

We kept going

All while knowing

Faith was the key

To what’s meant to be

We found a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Our souls found a home

Where we knew they could roam

And God gave us a chance To do a slow dance

Feelings

Things never felt before

As God fills us to the core

Our souls running free

Cause we know what’s meant to be

Sitting in a room

Seeing things in full bloom

Looking in our hearts

To see where love starts

Building new dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Standing on a strong foundation

Without hesitation

Feeling something pure

What makes us feel secure

Sharing the love

That comes from heaven above

Hanging on God’s word

Cause that’s all we’ve heard

Removing all doubt

That God will work things out

Faith filling every soul

With what makes it whole

Staying in prayer

Cause we know God is there

Embracing every journey

Meant for us only

Sharing a smile

One that last quite a while

Learning life lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

Doing a victory dance

Whenever we get a chance

Learning to change our view

When we see what God can do

Feeling perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

Resting in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Lifting one voice

As we begin to rejoice

Feeling God’s affection

Having His protection

Seeing what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

Feelings
