Let's stop today to say a prayer,
    get down on bended knee;
To thank Our Lord for all the one's,
    who died so we'd be free.

They gave their lives to fight for us,
   fought battles in each war;
To see we'd all be free to walk,
    this land from shore to shore.

Each husband, wife or daughter,
   each son or just a friend;
Gave all in heat of battle,
   our country to defend.

So say a prayer for those who served,
    who answered beckon call;
They died to let our freedom ring,
    those saints each gave their all!

They've given all as war raged on,
   they gave their best each day;
They fought to free each one of us,
   to see 'ole glory wave!

They stood so strong, so proud and tall,
   our freedom to defend;
That son or daughter, mom or dad,
   that husband, wife, or friend!

Though young or old, some rich or poor,
   each answered beckon call;
They fought to let our freedom ring,
   each soldier gave their all!

The ones that fell, who now have passed,
   who paid the bigger price;
Left loved ones here with broken hearts,
   still lost in silent cries!

Then ones still here, so many ways
  the war has left it's mark;
With scars and shattered dreams they have,
   so many broken hearts!

I take the time to pen these words,
   to stand up to my feet,
Saluting every one who've fought,
   the few, OUR BRAVE ELITE!!
Take the time today to say a prayer for all those whom have lived and died defending this great nation!

I tell you now, My God is King;
   the Ruler of all seas;
Almighty and Omnipotent;
   My Lord, The Prince of Peace.

He's with me on the mountaintop,
   or on the valley floor;
He's with me when I'm lost at sea,
   or resting on the shore.

He's seen me through the worst of times,
   He caught me when I fell;
He changed my life with just one touch,
   by breaking devil's spell.

He broke the chains that bound my life,
   thus setting my soul free;
So much more than My Lord and King,
   He's more than life to me!

Please let me take one moment now,
   to tell you 'bout my girl;
She's sweeter than pure honeycomb,
    more precious than a pearl.

She came to me sent straight from God,
   to teach me 'bout real love;
A present that My God sent down,
   from Heaven's gates above.

I'm proud I found my one true love,
   yet still so overwhelmed;
So blessed to call her all my own,
   gift from Angelic realms.

She fills me full of hope in life,
   means more than everything;
She's bound my heart with chains of love;
   my love, my gorgeous queen.
What happened to the past days when a couple treated each other like royalty? They truly respected each other and the man treated his lady like the real Queen she is...

I love you girl, I know that now,
   you've won my heart indeed;
You make me smile when other's can't,
    you mean this much to me...

You're wild fire that burns inside,
   to set my heart ablaze;
A sunbeams ray that sheds pure light,
   on each my darkest days.

You're buttercups and daffodils,
    the color in my life;
A *** of gold at rainbows end,
   my comfort after strife.

You're fresh cut grass caught in the wind,
    a breathe of springtime breeze;
The a' la mode' that tops me off,
   to make my life complete.

So when you feel you're not enough,
   I hope with this you'll see;
You're all of this and so much more,
    you're EVERYTHING to me!
Anybody can say "I love you", but not everyone can go into detail as to what that person and their love really means

There's times in life we're just not sure,
   which way is best to go;
Those times when life seems far to hard,
    in life we're dealt a blow

We may not see the light to come,
   the end seems far away;
Life really seems not worth it now,
   to wake up one more day.

I know it's hard, I've been there too,
   where dying would bring peace;
Where not one thing could make me smile,
   no help the pain could ease.

Just hear me out, I've got some news,
   I finally found the way,
To stand up strong, to live again,
   to face another day.

I gave it all to God Himself,
   let Jesus fight my war;
And that He did, He fought for me,
   this war and many more!

Now every day I give Him thanks,
   for guidance from above;
For keeping me so safe from harm,
   wrapped in His Wings of Love.
Every day each one of us fight personal battles. We try our best to handle them ourselves while keeping a positive facade. We get deeper and deeper in agony and despair by holding the pain in... Don't try to do it yourself, open up, tell a Friend... He is more than capable of handling all our problems!

A mother's love is not just love,
   it's more than that you see;
It's closer to agape love,
   my mother's love to me.

She never failed to wrap me up,
   when ere I felt some pain;
To make the bad turn into good,
   her hugs were all the same.

She picked me up those times I fell,
   brushed off that dirt of life;
She stood by me no matter what,
   for me she'd stand and fight.

I'll always be her baby boy,
   from birth all through my years;
My friend, my hero, queen of hearts,
   my mother oh so dear!
I know everyone says their mom is the best, but if you actually could meet my mother then you would see it my way...I DEFINITELY have the sweetest, most supportive, and phenomenally loving mother absolutely ANY man, woman or child could be blessed to call their mom! Happy Mother's Day to all the mothers, but most importantly to the beautiful lady I am proud to call MY mom .... Carol Whiting. I love you mother!!
