When You Speak

When you speak

You offer life and love

From heaven above

You give peace of mind

Which is difficult to find

You have a lot to share

It shows you’re always there

You create a safe space

To run any race

You give others strength

When you talk with them at length

You show the way

To live every day

You touch the heart and soul

You make life whole

And you plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

When you speak

Your word travels far

You show who you are

You offer something pure

You make others feel secure

You take a stand

While holding God’s hand

You reveal what’s real

What the heart can’t conceal

You share a journey

Meant for the heart only

You show faith is the key

To what’s meant to be

You reveal God’s power

Hour after hour

You tell a story

In all God’s glory

You show a purpose

Lying at the surface

You share dreams

Until you burst at the seams

You provide a light

That shines day and night

And others reach their peak

When you speak

Stolen Moments

Stolen moments with you

Thrill me through and through

The warmth of your smile

Seems to last awhile

Feeling your arms around me

Is certainly meant to be

The moments fill my days

In so many ways

They show where you stand

With one touch of your hand

They plant seeds

That lead to good deeds

They fill me to the core

Make me beg for more

And they offer something to hold

Until my story is told

Stolen moments with you

Help heal my soul

Make me feel whole

They give me peace of mind

Which is difficult to find

They remove my fear

With every moment you’re near

They’re like a quiet place

Filled with mercy and grace

They give me strength

Whenever we talk at length

They show me what’s real

What my heart can’t conceal

They’re filled with love

That comes from heaven above

They’re part of a journey

Made for you and me only

They help me grow

As I share what I know

I can travel far

As I reach for a star

And feel like morning dew

During stolen moments with you

When The Morning Comes

When the morning comes

Another journey begins

Prayer ensures faith wins

God sets things in stone

We never walk alone

We bask in a light

That shines day and night

We travel a great distance

With very little resistance

We carry life lessons with us

Cause in God we trust

We find strength in a word

That’s the best we’ve heard

We stand in the purpose

Lying at the surface

And God fills us to the core

Before offering us more

When the morning comes

We start a new chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Suddenly what we fear

Begins to disappear

We continue the journey

Meant for us only

We begin to see

What’s truly meant to be

We start a victory dance

When we get a chance

We bask in a place

Filled with mercy and grace

We sing a new song

All day long

We feel God’s affection

As well as protection

We begin to hold hands

Right where love stands

We travel far

Just to reach a star

We learn from the past

While making moments last

When the morning comes

Close To You

I have thoughts of you

And the wonderful things you do

They fill all my days

In a lot of ways

They give me something pure

They make me feel secure

They make me smile

Even laugh a little while

They send me on a journey

Filled with nothing but love only

They set my soul free

I know it’s meant to be

They are a sign from God

Who I offer a wink and nod

They show everything’s fine

They reveal what’s mine

They feel like morning dew

I long to be close to you

I removed my fear

I dream of having you near

I want to feel your touch

Cause it means so much

I long to hear your voice

Cause it makes me rejoice

I want to share your dreams

Until you burst at the seams

I long to hold your hand

Right where you stand

I want to give you affection

As well as protection

I want to fill you to the core

Before I offer you more

I want to keep you close

Cause you matter most

I’ll travel far

Just to be where you are

Yes, it’s true

I long to be close to you

In The Air

I feel love in the air

It shows God is there

I feel a touch in the air

It heals my soul

It makes me whole

I feel peace in the air

It touches my heart

Where everything should start

I feel purpose in the air

It puts me in place

As I run my race

I feel a smile in the air

It travels a mile

And last quite awhile

I feel a journey in the air

It’s meant to be

And meant just for me

I feel strength in the air

God fills all my days

In so many ways

I feel His word

It’s the best I’ve heard

I feel blessings in the air

They grew from seeds

That lead to good deeds

I feel pride in the air

I follow a light

That shines day and night

I feel a praise in the air

God offers something pure

It makes me feel secure

I feel knowledge in the air

I continue to grow

As I share what I know

I feel a new beginning in the air

Every new chapter

Is filled with joy and laughter

I know God is there

I feel it in the air

True Love

We’ve weathered several storms

We’ve broken several norms

Done what others said we couldn’t do

We see how God brought us through

We’ve made every moment last

Despite our difficult past

We’ve shared a great deal

We know what to reveal

We’ve faced our naysayers

While saying our prayers

We’ve learned to be still

While accepting God’s will

We’ve fallen and risen again

Yet we continue to win

We’ve followed a light

That shines day and night

We’ve looked at heaven above

And found our true love

At times we’ve lost our way

We’ve prayed every day

We’ve struggled with fear

Before seeing God standing near

We’ve gone through the fire

To obtain what we desire

We’ve lost solid ground

Before turning our lives around

We’ve traveled far

To reach for a star

We’ve searched for affection

As well as protection

Only to discover God’s word

Is the best we’ve heard

We’ve searched for peace

Our hearts can’t release

We’ve searched for a place

Filled with mercy and grace

Before God set us free

We know it was meant to be

We looked at heaven above

And found our true love
