Our Love

We share our days

In very loving ways

We hold each other close

Cause our bond matters most

What we have is real

Too difficult to conceal

God has planted a seed

To a blessing indeed

Every kiss is rare

They show God is there

Every tender touch

Means so much

Our current view

Shows what God can do

His encouraging word

Is all we’ve heard

We stand on our principles

As God performs miracles

This journey is for us

In Him we trust

We look in each other’s eyes

And it’s no surprise

That we’ve made love last

Despite our difficult past

We’ve found a treasure

Beyond all measure

Every single day

We love in a different way

We make clear

What we hold dear

Life gets better

As we embrace it to the letter

Our bond is by design

So, everything is fine

God removed every cloud

That makes us proud

Our hearts run free

We know it’s meant to be

We rest on solid ground

We share the joy we found

We’ll tell our story

In all God’s glory

We rest in a place

Filled with God’s grace

Whether we’re right or wrong

We know where we belong

As we look at heaven above

We see our love

Broken To Blessed

We’ve been down

With smiles turned into a frown

We’ve been shamed

We’ve been defamed

We’ve been scorned

Had our hearts torn

We’ve gotten lost

Didn’t know at what cost

We’ve grappled with doubt

Wondered if things would work out

We’ve searched for solid ground

Until God turned things around

We’ve longed for love

Until it came from heaven above

We’ve wanted to be free

Then faith showed what’s meant to be

We’ve longed for a voice

To make us rejoice

Then God came to us

In Him we trust

We gained a renewed strength

By talking with God at length

We’re not stressed

We’ve gone from broken to blessed

We’ve wondered where to go

Before learning what we know

We had a misguided view

Until we saw what God can do

We’ve survived every day

By learning to pray

We’ve looked ahead

While filled with dread

Until God provided a path

Without unleashing His wrath

We’ve grappled with fear

Until we saw God standing near

We didn’t know where we’d land

Until we held His hand

We’ve searched our hearts

Where love really starts

We’ve finally learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

We’re not stressed

We’ve gone from broken to blessed

Sea Of Love

I’m lying in the sea of love

Looking at heaven above

I see what God can do

How I made it through

I see all the roads I’ve traveled

Why my soul never unraveled

I see moments I lost my way

How God lifted me every day

I feel God’s affection

I have His protection

I see my purpose appear

Why I have nothing to fear

I see how God filled my soul

Why He makes me whole

I hear His word

Which I’ve always heard

I follow as God guides me

My heart and soul run free

I’ve removed all doubt

That God will work things out

And God gets the glory

As I tell my story

I’m lying in a sea of love

I’ve let go of dread

As I look straight ahead

God has a plan

He’ll reveal when He can

He has set things in stone

Reminds me I’m not alone

I feel God’s hand

As I learn to stand

I see what God can do

It feels like morning dew

I reach my peak

Whenever I hear God speak

Naysayers I ignore

Cause I’m filled to the core

I thank heaven above

For the sea of love

Mama’s Hands

Mama’s hands used to hold me

Mama’s hands set me free

They taught me to be strong

Showed me right and wrong

They filled every day

In a very loving way

They filled every journey

With unconditional love only

They provided direction

Along with plenty of affection

They showed me purpose

Rises to the surface

Mama’s hands pointed to a word

That deserves to be heard

They offered discipline

Show me I could win

They removed fear

Showed me God is near

They showed me what’s real

Things I shouldn’t conceal

And they showed a treasure

Beyond all measure

Mama’s hands carried me through

Showed what God can do

They filled my soul

They made me whole

They turned me around

Put me on solid ground

They revealed what’s in stone

Why I’m never alone

They gave me a home

Where my soul could roam

They gave me something to hold

Promised my story would be told

They talked about every chapter

Containing joy and laughter

They shared lessons learned

All the stripes earned

They lifted me up

They filled my cup

They revealed my name

Helped remove my shame

They made me smile

Even laugh a little while

I saw where love stands

Through Mama’s hands
