The Journey

Walking down the street

Where faith and God meet

We learn as we go

We share what we know

We marvel at what we see

We know it’s meant to be

Our feet take us far

Without delivering a scar

We open our eyes

To life’s wonderful surprise

The lessons we learn

The stripes we earn

Appear at our side

Along with our guide

We hang on the word

We’ve always heard

It offers something pure

It makes us feel secure

We gain a renewed strength

By talking with God at length

Every moment is for us

In Him we trust

We live in a peace

Our hearts won’t release

We see what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave us alone

Faith makes clear

What we should hold dear

The treasure we found

Has turned our lives around

We know what we hold

Our story will be told

We find our purpose

Lying at the surface

God guides every move

We have nothing to prove

We count every blessing

Without a lot of stressing

They keep us going

All without knowing

Faith is the way

To live every day

We see what we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

Every moment makes us smile

Even laugh a little while

Love Lifted Me

I was lost and alone

With nothing to call my own

Until God showed me the way

To live every day

Every day gets better

As I embrace life to the letter

Every answered prayer

Shows God is there

The world knows my name

I’ve let go of the shame

My heart runs free

I know it’s meant to be

God has filled my soul

He makes me whole

I can look straight ahead

Without an ounce of dread

I feel God’s affection

I have His protection

Faith keeps me strong

Whether I’m right or wrong

Without a doubt

God worked things out

I hang on His word

Cause it’s all I’ve heard

I live in a place

Filled with God’s grace

God holds me close

Cause I matter most

It’s crystal clear

What I hold dear

Every moment is real

Too difficult to conceal

I know what I hold

My story will be told

I’ve learned to smile

I even laugh a little while

Everything is by design

So, I’m just fine

Every step I take

Is a memory I’ll make

It’s part of the plan

God will reveal when He can

I see my purpose

Rising to the surface

I’ve come far

God healed every scar

It’s easy to see

Love lifted me

Guiding Light

Our guiding light

Shines day and night

It provides direction

As well as protection

It keeps us strong

It reveals right and wrong

It reveals God’s love

As we look at heaven above

It reveals what’s in stone

It never leaves us alone

It accompanies every journey

Meant for us only

It reveals the place

Filled with God’s grace

Our God given purpose

Lying at the surface

It shows what God can do

How God carries us through

The solid ground

We’re glad we found

And the answered prayer

Showing God is there

Our guiding light reveals the word

We’ve always heard

It holds us close

Cause we matter most

It teaches lessons

That later become confessions

It helps us grow

As we share what we know

It fills every soul

It makes life whole

It helps us stand

As we hold God’s hand

It plants seeds

That lead to good deeds

It reveals what we hold

The story being told

Why we rejoice

Whenever we hear God’s voice

How prayer is the key

To what’s meant to be

It takes us far

Without leaving a scar

It shows what we can take

All the memories we’ll make

And every day and night

We follow our guiding light
