Solid Ground

We face every day

While trying to find our way

We wonder what we’ll find

Before God offers peace of mind

We face our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Our purpose is made clear

So, we move without fear

We stumble here and there

But God offers tender loving care

Our life lessons

Become heartfelt confessions

We search for purpose

Then it rises to the surface

We look straight ahead

While filled with dread

Until God sets our path

Without unleashing His wrath

We grapple with doubt

Before God works things out

We find a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We look at heaven above

And see nothing but love

God turned us around

Then put us on solid ground

We hold our faith close

Cause faith matters most

We’re put to the test

Just like all the rest

We feel weak

Until we hear God speak

We see what’s by design

So, everything is fine

We have God’s affection

As well as protection

We plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

We travel far

While healing every scar

We hold hands

Right where love stands

Life gets better

As we embrace it to the letter

We continue our mission

With crystal clear vision

God turned us around

Then put us on solid ground

The Essence Of You

You fill all my days

In a million different ways

I hold you close

Cause you matter most

You fill me to the core

Leave me begging for more

You’re part of the dreams

That make me burst at the seams

You give me moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

You’ve given me a home

Where my soul can roam

You offer something pure

You make me feel secure

You’ve turned me around

Put me on solid ground

You make me smile

Even laugh a little while

You are the journey

Meant for me only

As I open my eyes

You offer a wonderful surprise

You set things in stone

You never leave me alone

I can make it through

With the essence of you

You help me grow

By sharing what you know

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

Your love takes me far

Without leaving a scar

You make me see

What’s truly meant to be

You are the voice

That makes me rejoice

The thought makes me proud

Makes me sing out loud

You help me stand

With one touch of your hand

I have nothing to fear

Whenever you’re near

You fill every place

With mercy and grace

I can make it through

With the essence of you

Love Light

We display our love light

Both day and night

It reveals what we treasure

Beyond all measure

It fills every day

In a very special way

It sets things in stone

It never leaves us alone

It travels far

While healing every scar

It shows how we live

The way we give

How we remove doubt

That God will work things out

It keeps us close

Cause bonding matters most

It shows what we hold

As our story is told

It rests in the home

Where our souls roam

It plants seeds

That lead to good deeds

And it shows what’s by design

Why everything is fine

We display our love light

Both day and night

It’s part of the journey

Meant for us only

It’s the path God set for us

In Him we trust

It’s the word we hear

It removes every fear

It gives us pleasure

Beyond all measure

It shows what’s real

Too difficult to conceal

It shows what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

It reveals the blessing granted

All the seeds we’ve planted

It reveals our purpose

Before it rises to the surface

It turned us around

Put us on solid ground

It gives us strength

When we talk with God at length

And we display our love light

Both day and night

Heaven’s Door

I’m knocking on heaven’s door

As God fills me to the core

I’m counting every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

I’m reflecting on the past

How I made every moment last

I’ve embraced every journey

Meant for me only

I’m sharing the dreams

That make me burst at the seams

I’m sharing the love

That comes from heaven above

I relish the peach

My heart won’t release

I’ve changed my name

I’ve let go of my shame

I get much stronger

As my days get longer

I do a victory dance

Whenever I get a chance

My soul is free

I know it’s meant to be

And life gets better

As I embrace it to the letter

I’m knocking on heaven’s door

Nothing pleases me more

I’ve learned to stand

While holding God’s hand

I see my purpose

Rising to the surface

Faith taught me to smile

Even laugh a little while

I see what’s in stone

I know I’m not alone

I move without fear

Cause God almighty is near

Every time I open my eyes

I see a wonderful surprise

I keep going

All while knowing

God set my path

Without unleashing His wrath

I hold my faith close

Cause faith matters most

I’m filled to the core

While I’m knocking on heaven’s door
