Praying Hands

My hands went to work

As I talked with God

We discussed my days

All His loving ways

The ordained journey

Meant just for me only

How He removed my fear

All the things I hold dear

My hands kept moving

As God set my path

Without unleashing His wrath

I found perfect peace

My heart won’t release

I held my faith close

Cause faith matters most

I saw what I’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

I ran my race

In a safe and secure place

I saw what was in stone

Why God never leaves me alone

I saw what was for me

Things that are meant to be

I faced my naysayers

As I said my prayers

I enjoyed moments of pleasure

Beyond all measure

My hands kept working

As I reached my peak

When I heard God speak

I built new dreams

Strange as it seems

God lifted me up

He filled my cup

I changed my view

When I saw what He could do

I learned to smile

Even laugh a little while

I continued my mission

With crystal clear vision

God offered me something pure

He made me feel secure

I began to grow

More than anyone would know

I started all over again

Cause my faith helped me win

The day made me proud

I shouted out loud

Love Is

Love is

What fills every day

God leading the way

Our divine purpose

Lying at the surface

The guiding light

That shines day and night

What gives us strength

As we talk at length

What gives us perfect peace

Our hearts won’t release

What sets things in stone

Why God never leaves us alone

What makes us dance

To celebrate our second chance

Something very pure

What makes us feel secure

What fills every space

With mercy and grace

What lifts us up

What fills our cup

What fills the journey

Meant just for us only

What makes us smile

Even laugh a little while

Love is

The blessing granted

All the seeds we planted

The hand we hold

As our story is told

What changes our view

When we see what God can do

What we’ll gain

Through heartache and pain

Every single chapter

Filled with joy and laughter

Moments of pleasure

We cherish beyond measure

The faith we hold dear

When God removes our fear

Learning to stand

As we hold God’s hand

The wonderful surprise

That opens our eyes

God removing every cloud

Moments that make us proud

What makes us see

We’re meant to be

Love is
