I've made bad choices in my life,
   I've caused a lot of hurt;
I've been as low as one could be,
   were living seemed absurd!

I've found the point of no return,
   where dying would bring peace,
But chose to find my way back up,
   by starting from my knees!

I gave my will, my all to Him,
   He showed me nail scarred hands;
To let me know He'd paid the price,
   to show He had a plan.

Now as I fight each day and night,
   to find my way back up;
I see my future brighter now,
    not leaving it to luck!

I see He placed me where I'm at,
    and let me feel that pain;
To make me stronger than before,
   to help my life to change.
So many of us have suffered from REAL struggles in the past of many different things, but when the "light comes on" and we reach the point to where enough is enough, He is waiting to help us move forward and grow stronger never to fall again.

Some people think you're not just right,
   no perfect match for me;
Yet they don't know what I've found out,
    how awesome love can be.

I've  come to see what happy is,
   one moment by your side;
Since you've became my "Bonnie" now,
   and I've became your "Clyde".

It's more than just a simple bond,
   we make the best of teams;
The kind that most can only find,
   in hopeful wish and dreams!

I wish those people once could feel,
    how real true love can be;
To see the truth what your love means,
   and all you are to me!

The way it feels to hold you close,
   to fit just like a glove;
It's not so hard to see it now,
   no wonder I'm in love!
No one on this earth can see in your heart, feel what you feel, or enjoy the true happiness that you enjoy on a daily basis when you find that special person God created just for you! Revel in the beauty of it, embrace it, and give that special someone what they deserve....ALL OF YOU!!

I've heard about this all my life,
   my Home in Beulah Land;
Those pearly gates and streets of gold,
   all formed by Your own hand.

I hear You've built a mansion there,
   a special place for me;
Its on a hill with greenest grass,
   beside a Crystal Sea!

Now Lord don't take this wrong at all,
   I'm thankful for all things;
But since I'm just a country boy,
   a mansions not my dream.

A little place, just outside town,
   surrounded by huge trees;
The sounds of nature at my door,
   would be morefit for me!

A broken down old picket fence;
   with squeaky wooden gates;
A muddy road not travel worn,
    to me would five star rate!

A tire swing hung 'round a branch,
   the buzz of honeybees;
A bed so full of daffodils,
   a few small dogwood trees.

A cozy place to call my Home,
   a noisy front porch swing;
No more I'd want for all of time,
   but place to hang my wings!

You see My Lord, not hard to please,
    I'm just a simple man;
A cabin made from Heavn'ly logs,
   now THAT'D be Glory Land!

There's not one thing to best describe,
   no way to put to words;
The feeling that I get inside,
   each time I'm holdin' her.

It feels just like a morning sky,
   when sun breaks through the trees;
Refreshing like a drop of rain
   or waft of springtime breeze.

So beautiful like ocean waves,
    that wash up on the sand;
To know that only love this true,
   'twas formed by God's own hand.

It looks as though I'll not let go,
    not one time in this life;
As sure as spring is soon to come,
   as sure as day and night!

It seems just like she's part of me,
   so safe from any harm;
To hold her tight so close to me,
   is Heaven in my arms!

There's one thing that I know 'bout life;
   at times it seems so hard;
To find your path, to make your way,
   remembering who you are!

We all have done those certain things,
   we wished we'd never done;
Or wasted time with those we love,
   to realize time is gone!

We move so fast, get lost in self;
   forget all those who care;
Those few who've never left your side,
   with love you can't compare.

Remember now when times got rough,
   who stood so firm by you;
They gave you will to stand your ground;
   the strength to see it through!

So stop right now, acknowledge those,
    those few that show true love;
Those one's whom God Himself has sent,
   those angels from above!

They're 'round us in so many forms;
   but just look close, you'll know;
They all have but one thing alike..
   a golden heart that glows!

I'd never try to put in words
   the pain you're going through;
Though yet I hope to share some love,
   from my heart now to you.

You've lost a special angel now,
   she left you far too soon;
You miss her arms around you,
   every morning night and noon.

You never quite will be the same,
   as long as your apart;
But never will you be alone..
   she's perched inside your heart.

Now hold those memories close to you,
   together that you made;
You know she wants what's best for you,
   her love to never fade.

She's moved on now to better place,
    she's walking Heaven's shore;
No soul on earth can harm her now,
    she's safe there with My Lord.

Now picture her with smiling face,
   at Home in Beulah Land;
She's walking down those streets of gold,
   with Jesus hand in hand.

So as you try to live your life,
   remember this one thing;
You're angel still is soaring high,
   just now she's got her wings!

If Webster could have found a way,
   defining just your love;
He'd had to paint the closest thing:
   our love from God above!

It's more than kind, far more than pure,
   formed of the rarest breed;
A simple love none else could feel,
   yet everything I need!

It's shown the best through anything,
   just knowing that you care;
It coddles close this heart of mine,
    to feel your presence near!

To see you in my dreams each night,
   to wake up by your side;
Fulfilling now once lonely heart,
   in love I now abide!

Now tryin' to find if just one way,
   to put your love to words;
To tell the truth I'm still at loss,
   your love makes words absurd!
