Second Chance

I’ve seen difficult days

While trying to change my ways

I’ve faced a lot of scorn

Had my heart torn

I’ve felt ashamed

I’ve been defamed

I’ve gotten lost

Not knowing the cost

Before God turned me around

Put me on solid ground

I’ve fallen far

I’ve had to heal every scar

I’ve fought every enemy

Not knowing what was meant to be

Until God revealed my purpose

Before it rose to the surface

I’ve looked straight ahead

While filled with dread

Until God set my path

Without unleashing His wrath

I’ve felt weak

Before hearing God speak

I’ve started over again

Learned that with faith I’ll win

I’m doing a victory dance

Cause God gave me a second chance

I’ve wondered what I’d find

Until God gave me peace of mind

I’ve grappled with doubt

Until God worked things out

I’ve grappled with fear

Until God held me near

I’ve searched for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Then God gave me a home

Where my soul can roam

I’ve been through every storm

Learned to break every norm

I’ve wondered what to do

How I’d make it through

Then God took my hand

He taught me how to stand

I’ve changed my view

After seeing what God can do

I’m doing a victory dance

Cause God gave me a second chance

Hands Of Love

I feel your hands of love

They feel like heaven above

They hold me close

Like I matter most

They guide the journey

Meant just for me only

They reveal what’s in stone

They never leave me alone

They turn me around

Put me on solid ground

They give me perfect peace

My heart won’t release

They give me something pure

They make me feel secure

They give me pleasure

Beyond all measure

They fill my dreams

Make me burst at the seams

They open my eyes

To a wonderful surprise

They give me a home

Where my soul can roam

They deliver a word

That deserves to be heard

I feel your hands of love

They feel like heaven above

They heal my soul

They make me whole

They make me smile

Even laugh a little while

They fill my core

Before you offer me more

They help me stand

As I hold your hand

They reveal God’s power

Hour after hour

They guide me through the storm

They break every norm

They make me see

What’s meant to be

They reveal the steps I take

All the memories I’ll make

They give me a voice

Before I begin to rejoice

They move my heart

Right where you start

They come from heaven above

Your hands of love
