When God Appears

When God appears

The soul is set free

It knows what’s meant to be

We feel the love

Coming from heaven above

We feel a peace

Our hearts won’t release

We embrace every new day

We accept God’s way

We learn to stand

As we hold God’s hand

We hear an encouraging word

That’s the best we’ve heard

We make crystal clear

What we hold dear

We gain a renewed strength

As we talk at length

We get filled to the core

Before God offers us more

And we embrace every journey

Meant for us only

When God appears

We lift one voice

As we begin to rejoice

We do a victory dance

After our second chance

Faith turns us around

Puts us on solid ground

We ignore our naysayers

We continue with our prayers

We hold faith close

Cause faith matters most

We dare to dream

As strange as it may seem

We begin a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

We move without fear

God wipes every tear

We see our purpose

Rise to the surface

We see beautiful things

All the joy life brings

And we see what we hold

As our story is told

The Soul Cries Out

The soul longs for love

Coming from heaven above

It longs for peace

Only a silent prayer can release

It searches for a hand to hold

It longs to be bold

It looks all around

Wonders what it found

It searches for a safe place

To run its race

It tries to remove fear

When it sees God standing near

It tries to dream

As strange as it may seem

It faces every day

It tries to find its way

It looks for what’s in stone

It may feel all alone

It longs to smile

Even laugh a little while

It wants to be free

See what’s meant to be

It wants to let go

Of what it used to know

It tries to care

It longs to share

It tries to sit still

As it accepts God’s will

It searches for affection

It longs for protection

It tries to look ahead

Without an ounce of dread

It wants to reveal

What the heart can’t conceal

It tries to be strong

Be it right or wrong

It travels far

It tries to heal every scar

And it won’t pretend

It cries out until the end

Running Free

We’re running free

We see what’s meant to be

God has given us peace

Our hearts won’t release

He has led the way

To a brighter day

We’ve learned a great deal

We know what’s real

We share all the dreams

That make us burst at the seams

Our naysayers we ignore

Cause we’re filled to the core

God has given us direction

As well as protection

We rest in a place

Filled with His amazing grace

Every step we take

Is a memory we’ll make

And our purpose

Has risen to the surface

We’re running free

What a sight to see

We feel the love

Coming from heaven above

We stand on solid ground

Faith turned our lives around

We’ve gotten through the storm

Defied every norm

We get stronger

As our days get longer

God planted the seed

To a blessing indeed

We know what we hold

Our story has been told

God is with us

In Him we trust

We reach our peak

Whenever we hear God speak

His words ring true

We see what He can do

Life is much better

Cause we embrace it to the letter

And the world can see

Why we’re running free

Monday Blues

Got the Monday blues

Need something I can use

It’s time to start over

Without a four-leaf clover

Still learning to stand

As I hold God’s hand

He’ll walk with me

Set my soul free

It’s a new day indeed

Faith will give me what I need

I’m still trying to learn

Looking at the stripes I’ll earn

I’ll embrace the journey

Meant for me only

Only time will tell

What I’ll see well

I’ll follow the light

That shines day and night

It’ll hold me close

Cause I matter most

Got the Monday blues

Need something I can use

God will take me far

He’ll heal every scar

I’ve been given a mission

Along with clear vision

Faith will clear my mind

With the best news I can find

I’ll learn as I go

Share what I know

I’ll feel a touch

That means so much

I’ll move without fear

Cause God Almighty is near

I’ll see what’s in stone

Why God won’t leave me alone

I may see something new

Then change my point of view

It may be something real

What my heart can’t conceal

Then I’ll replace the Monday blues

With what I can use
