I fell on the ground beaten and in pain,
Every move I make reminds me of my shame,
I gave up on myself, thinking all is lost,
But then I saw a figure in the fog.

He picked me up and said with a sigh
"I came for you when I heard your cries.
I am here to save you from your past,
It took a long time but I am here at last."

He lifted me up and carried me home,
I was overwhelmed with all the love he had shown,
I looked in his eyes and saw his smiling face,
His intentions were pure and his heart filled with grace

We walked down the path, hand in hand,
He let me rest when I was too tired to stand.

Now as I wander through life,
I never feel any pain or strife,
I have finally found my best friend
who will help me through it until the end.

He comes from the darkness with a greedy face,
I ran from him with a quickening pace,
He caught up with me, his eyes filled with pride,
"It's too late now, there's nowhere to hide"

As I sit down I am filled with disgrace,
He lifts my head up and says I have a choice to make,
"Just one decision, that's all I need dear.
Only one choice, there's not need to fear."

This choice might make me.
This choice might break me.

"Hurry up darling you must make a choice."
I hear him say in a sinister voice.

My heart grows weary
as time draws near,
My heart grows weary,
It's too much to bear,

"Now, Now, the time is NOW!"
I hear him scream as the sweat
drips off of his brow,
I told him "OK, I will decide."

Now I will make my decision, the deed will be done,
But the greatest question of all.
Will I make the right one?

I thank God everyday for blessing me with you,
A great young man with a heart so true,
Even if the world was torn at at the seam,
No matter what we will always be a team.

Now there is no place I would rather be
Than by your side, just you and me.
We go through life, hand in hand,
Our greatest adventures will be the ones unplanned.

You are the one that fill all the gaps,
I look in your eyes and think, "perhaps
this is the man that will help me through life.
Could it be that I will become his wife?"

I am unsure of what the future may hold,
But I pray that with you, an adventure may unfold,
I know you are the one that makes me whole,
I love you with all of my heart and soul.

My forgiveness is shallow,
yours is unending,
My peace is hallow,
Yours is complete,
My pride is wrong,
you are meek,
My hate is strong,
You are love,
I know you have risen,
You fulfilled,
My heart I have given,
Yours to keep

Father, I pray for peace

My voice cries out
"Come to me, erase all my doubt".
I feel your spirit come to me and chase,
Chase my fears away.
When all else fails it's your grace,
Your grace that stays.
You are all I seek,
Show me, oh Lord, how to be meek,
Teach me to be wise
So I shall not fall and cause my own demise,
I ask you to stay in my heart forever,
So for all eternity we will be together.

Love,

          It surrounds us,
          It crowns us,

         It seems to be against us,
         However; it is always on our side,
         It has nothing to hide,
         It is true, wise, and free.
         Love is something even the blind can see.

         We want love,
         We need love,
         But, do we know love?
         Because,
                    
                            God is love.
