Horizons

Awaking every day

Accepting God’s way

Learning as we go

Sharing what we know

Carrying life lessons

That become heartfelt confessions

Ignoring our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Looking all around

Sharing the joy we found

Trying something new

Seeing how God brought us through

Finding perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

Looking straight ahead

While letting go of dread

Knowing what’s for us

Seeing the God we trust

Reaching our peak

Whenever we hear God speak

Resting in a place

Filled with God’s grace

Learning to smile

Even laugh a little while

Feeling God’s affection

Having His protection

Remembering who we are

As we reach for a scar

Letting go of sorrow

Looking to tomorrow

Knowing every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

Hanging on the encouraging word

We’ve always heard

Learning to let go

Of what we used to know

Learning our name

Letting go of our shame

Seeing our purpose

Rise to the surface

Embracing every journey

Meant for us only

Learning to see

What’s truly meant to be

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

Finding a home

Where our souls can roam

Letting go of doubt

That God will work things out

Horizons

Better Days

We’ve prayed consistently

Stayed together faithfully

We’ve endured a great deal

Faced moments that are real

We’ve seen what’s by design

Wondered if everything is fine

We’ve prayed for strength

While talking to God at length

We’ve hung on the word

We’ve always heard

We’ve longed for affection

As well as protection

We’ve searched our hearts

To see where love starts

We’ve grappled with doubt

That things will work out

We’ve wanted every soul

To be made whole

We’ve looked ahead

While filled with dread

We’ve wanted to smile

Even laugh a little while

Before changing our ways

Then seeing better days

We’ve searched for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We’ve been set aside

While searching for a guide

We’ve traveled far

While healing every scar

We’ve longed for a home

Where our souls can roam

We’ve looked at what we know

Wondered how we can grow

We’ve longed to see

What’s truly meant to be

We’ve wanted a journey

Meant for us only

We’ve wondered what’s for us

Wondered who to trust

We’ve wanted a light

To follow day and night

We’ve tried to turn around

Searched for solid ground

Until we changed our ways

Then saw better days

Time After Time

Time after time

We embrace a new day

We accept God’s way

We let our hearts run free

We see what’s meant to be

God lifts us up

He fills every cup

We see what we treasure

Beyond all measure

God fills every soul

He makes life whole

We embrace a new journey

Meant for us only

We ignore our naysayers

As we say our prayers

Faith removes all doubt

That things will work out

We hold hands

Right where love stands

We look into our hearts

Then see where love starts

And life gets better

As we embrace it to the letter

Time after time

We see a beautiful place

Filled with mercy and grace

We feel God’s power

Hour after hour

We get much stronger

As our days get longer

We share all the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

We learn our name

We let go of our shame

We see what’s by design

We know everything is fine

Our faith becomes the story

Told in all God’s glory

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

And we hold each other close

Cause our bond matters most

Time after time

Another Day

Another day to love

To look at heaven above

To hold each other close

Cause our bond matters most

To cherish what we treasure

Beyond all measure

To embrace every journey

Meant for us only

To rest in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

To count blessings granted

Water the seeds we’ve planted

To fill every soul

With what makes it whole

To stand on solid ground

Share the joy we found

To see what’s real

What our hearts can’t conceal

To rest in a home

Where our souls can roam

To let our eyes see

What’s truly meant to be

Another day filled with pride

A love we can’t hide

To feel God’s affection

Have His protection

To change our view

As we see what God can do

To learn how to live

To learn how to give

To learn to move ahead

Without an ounce of dread

To reach our peak

Whenever we hear God speak

To embrace a word

We’ve always heard

To lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

To follow the light

That shines day and night

To see what’s in stone

See why we’re not alone

To feel God’s power

Hour after hour

Another day
