"Will You?"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Will you ever see your doing wrong
by the ones who love you dear?
Will you feel you've been successful
if not one of them is near?

Will you feel you've reached the big time now
with your money and some fame?
Will you watch it fall to pieces
then just openly cast the blame?

Will you realize now a thing on Earth
you can take through Heaven's door?
Will you ever see that your family is
longing for your love and more?

Will you ever be there for them once
as the go through storms in life?
Will you never feel a bit so bad
as they bear their pain and strife?

Will you ever see you failed them all
with the sinful life you trod?
Will you open up your eyes to see
life is nothing without God?

Will you ask me God above you to
come into your heart to stay?
Will you follow as He leads you
walk beside Him everyday?

Will you ask your family's forgiveness for
ll the hurt and pain you caused?
Will you watch Him mend their broken hearts
as you take a knee to pause?

Will you give tour life all to Him now
as He takes away their fears?
Will you hold them close forever till
from Heaven, He appears?

Will you finally see love you can't compare
with a life you've ever had;
Will you stand and be what He'd have you be
loving husband, father and dad!

"Pure Desire of Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
You've been through hard times in your life,
not one thing else feels right;
Remember now, I'm here for you
to help you win this fight!

You're not alone, not anymore,
it's you and me now, girl;
I'm by you now to hold your hand
while walking through this world!

I'll stand beside, protect you now,
to keep you safe from harm;
To hold you oh-so-close to me
in these big lovin' arms!

So keep your head held up so high,
just listen when I say;
We may be many miles apart,
yet never far away!

It's not so very long from now,
I'll show you everything;
You'll feel these words I'm saying now
safe and sheltered 'neath my wings!

This pure desire that burns inside
will always be enough;
To walk through fire to get to you,
to fan these flames of love!

"Angel Of My Dreams"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Not long ago I lost a love,
she left me on my own;
She turned this heart so full of love,
into a heart of stone!

I felt I'd always be alone,
I'd never find real love;
Till you appeared now in my life,
as sent from Heaven above!

You waltzed into my life one day,
oh girl, you left your mark;
With just few tender words you spoke
you softened this 'ole heart!

You smiled at me that gorgeous smile,
you know it wasn't fair;
Those baby blues pierced deep inside,
I fell in love right there!

A stroke of luck, an answered prayer
too good as though it seems;
I'd finally found that girl I saw,
the Angel in my dreams!

"Thinking of My Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I'm sitting here to write these words,
to think of only you;
Your beauty blows my mind each day,
those precious eyes so blue!

Those bright red lips so soft and sweet,
your long and flowing hair;
Angelic features at their best,
has Heaven sent you here?

With gentle touch, you show your love,
slight brush of tender hand;
Can soften even hardest heart,
to melt a full grown man!

With softly spoken gentle word,
you set my mind at ease;
And every time you say my name,
you bring me to my knees!

You bring such strength and inner peace,
through sorrow, pain and strife;
You show me love I've never seen,
since coming in my life!

To take the time to realize this,
you're more than everything;
You're ALL my world, my moon and stars
the wind beneath my wings!

"What Your Love Is"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
The sun is shining bright today,
the sky of purest blue;
Reminds me of the love we share,
this love twixt me and you!

No matter how I feel inside,
you always bring a smile;
Your words take me so far away,
your love, an extra mile!

I built such walls around my heart,
you broke the binds, you see;
Each breath I take now in my life,
your love, the air I breathe!

You fill my heart with joy each day,
you're ALL I'll ever need;
You stand beside me everyday,
your love, an endless breed!

You keep me soaring high at times,
just floating in the wind;
You're so much more than everything
my love, my truest friend!

"Distant Embrace"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
It may be cold and bleak outside,
we may be miles apart;
Yet never can it get me down,
with you inside my heart!

Oh sure, there's days I struggle some,
just missing you so bad;
Until I think about our life,
the good times that we've had!

You bring a smile across my face
with thought of loving you;
The sun will shine within my heart
come stormy skies or blue!

Now any time I miss you so,
I'm all alone it seems;
I close my eyes to drift away
then hold you in my dreams!

Then when I wake I feel your touch,
as though you've left your mark;
A warm embrace of all your space,
reserved inside my heart!
Nov 2016 · 280
"You and Me"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I humbly come to you right now,
I'm down on bended knee;
To talk about the love we share,
our life, just you and me!

We've stumbled ,yes, we fell sometimes,
few moments shared apart;
Yet never once to doubt your love:
the keeper of my heart!

For all the good times we've been through,
the hard times only pale;
We stand together strong in love,
true love to now prevail!

We'll walk through life, now hand in hand,
close bond we've now to form;
We'll fight each war that rages on,
to take this life by storm!

In doubt if you'll just take the time,
to look then you will see;
With strength a thousand legions strong,
Together, you and me!

"Building on Our Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There's never been a time on Earth,
or love for just one man;
Then portion of the love we share,
a sign from God's own hand!

We're meant to be together now,
to never be apart;
To stand on love right where we are,
to mend our broken hearts!

So long before the day we met,
we lived our separate lives;
Through good and bad times all the way,
kept focused on the prize!

Those times have made us who we are,
so strong in every way;
We've learned so much about real love,
in life from day to day!

We've put the pain and all the hurt
of past behind us now;
We've took the good and left the bad
to focus on right now!

We kept our heads up, pressing on,
with hopes to find "the One";
God saw our needs and answered prayer
our searching for love now done!

So from this moment here on out,
let's focus on just us;
To be together for ALL time
to build upon this Love!

"Amazing Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
You blow my mind all through each day,
you rock my whole wide world;
Each time I see you walking by,
you still amaze me girl!

For with each hour that I'm with you
I know that I'm so blessed;
You've always been so good to me,
far better than the best!

I stand in awe at strength you have,
true strength so hard to find;
You've not once wained in loving me
with love so near divine!

So as this brand new day unfolds,
just know you've done your part;
With loving touch you've mended now,
this once so shattered heart!

Just know I'm here, I'll never leave,
come stormy skies or blue;
'Cause everyday you're by my side
I'm so amazed by you!

"Divine Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
If I could say what's in my heart
or write it word for word;
You'd finally see just how and why
my mind is all a blur!

There's not a word been written down,
or one yet been defined;
That truly shows the love we have
or half what's on my mind!

In all the books that Webster wrote,
no meaning even close;
To once define what real love is,
so few will ever know!

It's far beyond just "one true love"
far past "my only girl";
It's nowhere near most any love
you'll find in this 'ole world!

If I could paint a picture now
describing what love is;
It'd be a perfect masterpiece
portraying when we kiss!

So much more than a perfect love,
so good it's near divine;
It's got to be from Heaven above,
this love of yours and mine!
Nov 2016 · 662
"Un-Ending Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I'm sitting here to write these words
to say what's on my mind;
To promise you I'm changing plans,
to walk a different line.

I know I've lived so deep in sin,
as down life's road I trod;
I failed so bad in many ways
while running from my God!

It's never worked, the way I've lived,
my life from day to day;
The simple truth, I'm still amazed
you never walked away!

You've stood by me, no matter what,
the pain at times so bad;
You never once resented me
or life we should've had!

You've taught me more, though miles apart,
of what true love's about;
You broke the binds around my heart
with love to never doubt!

You're anchored firm, with roots so deep,
you've always stood so fast;
You've grounded me with Godly love,
and shown your love to last!

So now you see you're everything,
my Angel from above;
A special gift God sent to me
all packaged in your love!

"Just What You Mean To Me"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I thought I'd take the time right now,
to make a little list;
To tell you what you mean in life
so focus just on this:

You're more than just the world to me,
my all is what you are;
You stand alone yet shine so bright,
beyond all other stars!

Your beauty still astounds me so,
so precious out and in;
If ever once you doubt it though
just ask, I'll share again!

The fact that you have stood by me,
all through life's weary way;
Means more than I can put to words,
to know you're here to stay!

Since now you broke into my heart
you've shattered all the binds;
I never knew a love exists
this love, like yours and mine!

Since finding I could love this much
and feeling once again,
I realize now I love you so,
from now til very end!

"Prayers of Remembrance"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
A normal day, it started out,
the sun was shining bright;
The day was like most other days
'till terrorists took to flight!

They boarded planes with evil thoughts,
their plan was soon revealed;
The lives they took from all of us,
left wounds to never heal!

The towers stood with gaping holes,
as people gathered round;
They watched and wept in horror as
both towers crumbled down!

Those ones who died, so many now,
when terror hit the skies;
Left family, friends and loved ones here
still lost in silent cries!

Now take a pause to think on this,
to pray a silent prayer;
Ask God Himself to comfort those,
who lost their loved ones there!

"I'm Coming Home"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I know it seems so long from now,
till moment that just when;
I'll wrap you up in loving arms
to hold you once again!

Don't once give up or e'er lose hope,
you know where you belong;
I may be here, not with you there,
yet never really gone!

Each time I lay my head to rest
you're by my side it seems;
'Cause when I fall asleep each night
I know you'll fill my dreams!

You're on my mind all through the day
each one that we're apart;
You know I have this place for you
reserved inside my heart!

So don't you fret or once lose hope,
you'll never be alone;
For one day, not too long from now
I'm coming home sweet home!

"Still Loving You"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I've tried so hard to hold it in
not ever let it show;
But time has come to say those things
I never let you know!

We've lived our lives for past few years
we went our separate ways;
Although apart, still find my thoughts
just on you everyday!

I've tried to love someone but you,
I did my very best;
No matter how I tried so hard,
my love for you's no less!

I tell you now, in my whole life
the hardest thing to do;
Was holding her both night and day
but yet still loving you!

I told myself I'd soon move on
but girl, you left your mark;
An empty space reserved for you,
a place inside my heart!
Nov 2016 · 346
"Best Friend Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
You've made it known, your love for me,
so many times before;
And yet there's one thing you forget,
I'll always love you more!

You bring a smile upon my face,
each time you cross my mind;
The best friend that a man could have
or anyone could find!

It may have been some cruel joke
God played upon this Earth;
Within mine days He made us both,
for each our moms to birth!

We met so young, began to bond,
in Nashville, Tennessee;
Yet even now, so far apart
the best of friends that can be!

You said it best in cards you sent
we're stuck together like glue;
To show the world what friendship's like
this love twixt me and you!

So when time comes to wrap you up
I'd walk 500 miles;
to hold you close in loving arms
and see your gorgeous smile!

For now we live so far apart,
too far at times, it seems;
But listen now, I'll see you soon
if only in your dreams!

"Heavenly Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I've never found a love like yours,
here's what your love is worth;
You show a love so far past good,
small hint of Heaven on Earth!

I'm filled so full emotions now,
just heard your voice again;
Each time I hear that precious sound
I feel my heart give in!

You love me unconditionally
through all mistakes I've made;
You pray My Lord would help me when
it seems I've lost my way!

You stood by me, though hard it's been,
a pillar in life's sand;
Each time I stumbled down again,
you lent a helping hand!

With love like yours I'll never know
the feelings of alone;
Whenever I was feeling down
such comfort you have shown!

So as I write these words right now
still fumbling for the words;
To show you everything you are
this one thing just occurred!

You're more than good, far more than great,
you're sent from God above;
To show me each and every day
a touch of Heavenly Love!

"All My Dreams"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
In these moments I've spent here
I've thought about my life;
I realized all I've put you through
the sorrow, pain and strife.

I'm sorry, Dear, I have to say,
I've caused so many tears;
No matter what, you've stood by me
so strong for all these years!

I don't deserve a girl like you,
a blessing all my own;
I can't imagine living one day
without you and alone!

You've often made the hard times pale,
those times that seemed so bleak;
You stayed so bold and fought so hard
those days I'd fallen weak!

I'll never find the words to say,
how much your true love means;
You're on my mind and in my heart,
you're filling up my dreams!

I've prayed I'd find you all my life,
I'd almost given in;
Now that I've got you to myself,
won't ever lose again!

You're everything I'll ever want,
you're ALL my dreams come true;
My life now makes such perfect sense
since moment I found you!

"Distant Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
So as you know, I love you, Dear,
I tell you everyday;
Although we live so far apart,
both know we're here to stay!

We make this work the way we do,
as down life's road we go;
Yet I won''t lie, I'll tell you now
I miss my Baby so!

We've been so close for many years
and built upon our trust!
You'll find the meaning of true love.
a photo of just us!

Now in those times I find myself
so lonely it may seem;
I close my eyes to drift away
and hold you in my dreams!

You may not be here physically
but yet right from the start
You've nestled safely in your place
reserved inside my heart!

"Smiling Eyes"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I never knew a heart could feel
the pleasures of a smile;
But when I saw your gorgeous face
I felt I'd run a mile!

My heart sped up and blood ran hot
while flowing through my veins;
I knew right then, deep down inside
I'd never be the same!

If this is love, I must be new,
I've never felt like this;
For now I've found right here on Earth
a smile of Heavenly bliss!

I've sought for you my whole life through,
made far too many tries;
But now I've found my one true love
with gorgeous Angel eyes!

Now that you're mine, I've come to see
you're gorgeous out AND in;
Since you've became my Queen of hearts
my lover and best friend!

I know you'll find such peace;

I go through times near everyday,
these moments that just when,
I dream that day is finally here
to hold you once again!

It's not as long, from now till then,
it's just a bit more time;

Good morning to you, Beautiful,
how was your sleep last night?
You've started off my day so good
just being by my side!

As I lay right here and think about
the special times we've had;
I thank you for the love you've shared
in good times and in bad!

My heart has always skipped a beat
each time I see your face;
With just one word you spoke to me.
my heart had known it's place!

Although I may not show enough
or often times it seems;
I may not hold you high enough
as the woman of my dreams!

You make me happy every day
just with your special love;
You've shown me oft that I''m the man
you're always dreaming of!

You fill my life with so much joy
and show me every day;
That my God made you just for me
in each and every way!

I feel these words can't show you just
how much I love you, dear;
So let me hold you in my arms
and whisper in your ear-

You're my Queen of Hearts, My gorgeous Love
the twinkle in my stars;
You're me one and only ******* Earth
my ALL is what you are!

You'll be so safe right there with me;

"To Be in Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Your love is far more beautiful
than peaceful Autumn days;
It's quite a bit more brilliant
than warm and sunny days!

It's so much far more wonderful
than eagle soaring high;
It's more than pleasant to behold,
than soft clouds rolling by!

Oh yes! Your love is far more rich
than ALL the gold on Earth;
It'd blow the mind of anyone
to see your love's real worth!

It feels far more than good to me,
I've felt it from the start;
As you've broken down the walls I'd made,
you've soften hardest heart!

It's hard to say when someone asks
"just how does true love feel?";
I can't explain with any words,
this feeling that's so real!

I wished that everyone could feel
this feeling of true love;
The closest thing to Heaven on earth,
as sent from God above!

It's more than just astounding
this feeling that's so true;
It's more than just amazing
to be in Love with YOU!

"Winner's Heart"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
We traveled down this road of life,
we try for Heaven's sake;
To make the best of how we've lived,
decisions that we make.

So few are right, so many wrong,
but each one's left their mark;
It's how you fight your way back up
that proves a winner's heart.

It's in those times real men stand up
to keep on pressin' on;
They forge ahead through hardest times,
don't stop till battle's won!

They never once give up the fight,
when reaching for the stars;
To finally win the race we've run,
to prove just who we are!

We are the few who broke the mold,
who've beat the odds we face;
Those one's who've taken back their lives,
the winners in this race!

As victor now let's take the stand,
with loved ones by our side;
To finish what we've started here
sobriety, our prize!

Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I'm looking now to western sky
I know He's coming soon;
I'm so prepared to meet Him now,
this morning, night or noon!

My sins are all forgiven now,
my slate has been wiped clean;
My heart so filled with joy each day,
since now I've been redeemed!

I want to meet Him face to face,
to touch His nail scarred hands;
To see that mansion He prepared
my Home in Beulah Land!

Sure, I may have a moment left
a few more wars to fight;
A few more earthly roads to cross,
until my Heavenly Flight!

Though soon to hear those trumpets sound,
from Heaven's Jubilee;
That thunderous roar of chariot wheels,
now headed south for me!

They're comin' fast to pick me up
so Christians gather 'round;
With one swift move they'll scoop us all,
to then be Homeward Bound!

To see those massive gates swing wide,
my chariot flyin' by;
To my new Home forever more
to yonder in the sky!

"Be Still"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
So now you feel your problems big,
there's just no end in sight;
I know My Lord can solve each one,
if just you'll let Him fight!

Get on your knees and learn to pray,
to leave each one with Him;
He'll solve each problem in His way
yes, in His time, you'll win!

There's times He'll have you fight yourself,
His Word will be your sword;
Then other times He'll have you sit,
those times when less is more!

He'll show His power in many ways,
for always will He lead;
If just you'll give Him all control,
your every word and deed!

There's nothing that My Lord can't do,
each action is His Will;
He'll show you best when hard times come
if just you'll once be still!

"Lost Time"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
In days and times of younger years
I felt I'd never fall;
I couldn't lose no matter what
If I'd just give my all!

I lived my life so focused on
both riches and my fame;
I tried so hard to do my best
just hiding all the pain!

I dreamed not huge but massive dreams,
in life I had a plan;
To take this world by storm myself,
to be a wealthy man!

It's my own fault, the way I lived,
it comes as no surprise;
I worked so hard both night and day,
my loved ones paid the price!

I never spent, not near enough,
each moment oh so dear;
Those precious times, the little ones
that draw a family near!

Now've made a pact to focus on,
these finer things in life;
To be the dad I should've been
best husband to my wife!

To hug and hold, to love each day.
to make up for lost time;
To never let them go again,
to walk a different line!

"From Outside In"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Just step outside yourself today
   to take a closer look;
Are you the man you should've been,
  you're life an open book?

Have you became what others say,
   they'd one day like to be;
Or think to self, this can't be right,
   I'm so ashamed of me?

It's not about, the years gone by,
   the past has all been paid;
It's more of what you're doing now
   and how you live today!

Live life to love each one around,
   make time for those who care;
Just pass on things you've came to know,
   remember life's not fair!

Take steps to help someone who's down,
   to show a bit of love;
Just find a way to share the truth,
   forgiveness from above!

Now focus on the here and now,
   make memories for to last;
Then look at self from outside in,
   to change the things of past!

"Brand New Year"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
It doesn't take a genie's spell
  to change your life today;
It only takes determined mind,
   to live a different way!

We all have done those certain things,
   we wished we'd never done;
Or overlooked important things
  to live our life all wrong.

Don't ever think you can't change now,
   it's never quite to late;
To make up time you've thrown away,
   or change past choices made!

Just start today, don't put it off,
   to choose to do what's right;
To stand your ground for better life,
   to finally win this fight!

Now hug and hold those one's you've hurt,
   don't fear to shed a tear;
Just show them by your actions now,
   This year's a brand new year!

"Lost Time"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
In days and times of younger years,
   I felt I'd never fall;
I couldn't lose no matter what
  if I'd just give my all.

I lived my life so focused on
  both riches and my fame;
I tried so hard to do my best,
   just hiding all the pain.

I dreamed not huge, but massive dreams,
   in life I had a plan;
To take this world by storm myself,
   to be a wealthy man!

It's my own fault, the way I lived,
   it comes as no suprise;
I worked so hard both night and day,
   my loved ones paid the price!

I never spent, not near enough,
   each moment oh so dear;
Those precious times, the little ones,
   that draw a family near.

Now've made a pact to focus on
  these finer things in life;
To be the dad I should've been,
   to turn my wrongs to rights.

To hug and hold, to love each day,
   to make up for lost time;
To NEVER let them go again,
   to walk a different line!!

"My One and Only"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
What would life be without you here,
   I never want to know;
To spend one day all by myself,
   much lower than just low!

To never feel your touch again
   so much more than just cruel;
To hear you say your last goodbye,
   to think I'd been a fool!

So now I take the time each day,
   to thank my Lord above;
For giving me my every dream,
   all packaged in your love!

You see you fill my heart so full,
   you set my mind at ease;
This love we share together now,
   the purest of all peace!

So never think I don't love you,
   Your more than just my girl;
I finally found my one true love,
   my ONE in this whole world!!

"Seasons of Change"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
The sun just broke through eastern sky,
a soft and gentle breeze;
Such beauty, now is all around,
fall colors in the trees!

Each change in season make me think,
to search my heart and mind;
As if My God is showing me,
the things I've left behind!

As I was taught so very young,
God planted one more seed;
A life to grow, to flourish now
to rustle in the breeze!

I grew up fast to stand so tall,
to flourish in the spring;
I felt I had it all planned out,
to stay forever green!

Bad choices made and colors changed,
my leaves began to fall;
I felt I died within myself,
in life I'd lost it all!

I turned to God as winter came,
as cold winds filled my heart;
I begged and prayed for one more chance,
in life to hit my mark!

He answered me with springtime breeze,
now touched by Master's hand;
He strengthened me through seasons change,
to grow a better man!

"Seed of Hope"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
You never know just when in life
one word will have a mark;
To help someone, to save a life,
to mend a shattered heart!

So often times in passing by,
someone along your way;
The slightest gesture possible,
could change a life today!

You don't know what they're goin' through,
unless you take the time;
To listen, help, encourage them
to walk a different line!

With shattered dreams and broken hearts,
they feel they can't go on;
Unless you ask, you'll never know,
until they're dead and gone!

Now when you see them passing by,
so bogged down with despair;
Just take the time to lend a hand
to help them up from there!

So try it now, to show you care,
for those along the way;
This might be it, your only chance,
to help someone today!

To help them grow, to flourish now,
to plant, if just one seed;
the smallest hope, an answered prayer
may be just all they need!

"One Life"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
In world we live sometimes it's hard,
to shine above the rest;
No matter what, just strive to help,
to always do your best!

You're not alone in life you live,
there's souls along the way;
Who try so hard to get it right,
if only for today!

They're buried deep in troubles now,
they've fallen yet again;
They're lost at sea and fading fast,
so trapped by self within.

They feel there's just no end in sight,
there's just no hope at all;
The worst of thoughts now cross their mind
no further more to fall!

Now this your time to lend a hand,
small word, a helpful deed;
The fewest words could save that life
of friend so bad in need!

Just listen while they tell you all,
their troubles, pain and strife;
Then do your best to pick them up,
brush off the dirt of life!

To help someone, to save a life,
to mend one broken heart;
Will help you shine above all else
in life just do your part!

"Do You Know Where?"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Have you ever thought about it,
where you'll go to when you die?
Do you have a Home in Heaven
far beyond the clear blue sky?

Have you ever asked forgiveness
for each sin you sinned today?
See My Jesus died Calvary,
His forgiveness paved the way!

Could have called a million angels
but not once He ever tried;
Bore the weight of ALL our sins there,
on the cross, He hung and died!

As He drew His very last breath,
with a spear stuck in His side;
Paid the price for ALL us sinners
Heaven's gate He opened wide!

Why not ask Him for forgiveness,
ask Him in your heart to stay;
Then the Home you'll have in Heaven
He'll prepare for you today!

Now you'll have a humble mansion,
waiting for you in the sky;
Then you'll never have to question,
where you'll go now when you die!
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Oh what glorious day will be then
when the rapture finally comes;
When we're called up home to Heaven,
all our fighting here is done!

Be prepared for just that moment,
could be morning, night or noon;
Oh, to hear those trumpets sounding,
Heaven's Angels all in tune!

For that day the Heaven's open,
there's no time to say goodbye;
Hear those chariot wheels a soundin',
see My Savior in the sky!

Can you feel the anthem mounting
hear now Heaven's jubilee;
Can't you picture just that moment,
Angels far as eye can see?

Now the saints on Earth all ready,
for the dead in Christ to rise;
See a glimpse of happy faces,
headed Home beyond the skies!

You've not asked my Lord's forgiveness,
find your knees without delay;
Ask Him now to be your Savior,
for your sins the price is paid!

All the rich and poor now equal
doesn't matter wealth or fame;
When the roll is called up yonder
will my Jesus call YOUR name?

"What Will it Be?"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Now in this school called life we live,
recovery the test;
What will it be from here on out,
sobriety or death?

It may sound harsh to say like that,
but down this road we chose;
There's nothing good, just broken hearts
so many more lost souls!

It's time we see the pain we've caused
our loved one's shattered hearts;
You may not feel it's quite this bad
but drugs HAVE left their mark!

Each moment lost with all your loves,
one purpose, to get high;
You may not have but one more chance
before your last goodbye!

Lost family, friends and others 'round,
this sorrow, pain and strife;
Each one effects of choices made
in game that some call life!

It's time we made our mind up now,
as only WE can do;
To give up all these hurtful things,
in life to just be YOU!

Let's make a pact to live again,
let love and life abound;
To put behind our past mistakes
to live for here and now!
Nov 2016 · 211
"Forever Memories"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
So why'd you have to leave me now,
this moment FAR too soon;
Your time on Earth but for a day,
from morning just till noon!

You lived your life so full of joy
in just a few short years;
These thoughts of you still bring a smile
yes, even through the tears!

You made the best of life itself,
could handle anything;
You keep me sailing high each day-
the wind beneath my wings!

Not sure how I will make it now,
I'm feeling oh so cold;
I feel I had you next to me,
just not so long ago!

I know you're with my Jesus now,
you're walking Heaven's shore;
Though I still miss you everyday,
I'm healing more and more!

I'll hold your memory close to me,
those hugs so full of love;
I'll see you soon when trumpets sound,
My Angel up above!

"Never Gone"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I'm sitting here to tell you now,
to say what's on my mind;
I know it's hard, you miss him so,
in just so little time!

He lived his life to share his love,
with you and others 'round;
He picked you up, brushed off the dirt
those times you'd fallen down!

So strong in life, just young in age,
so wise at just a teen;
He's never really gone for good,
you'll see him in your dreams!

I know right now it hurts so bad,
you feel you're ripped apart;
You'll always have a place for him
reserved in broken heart!

Just take some time to grieve a bit,
don't once quit pressing on;
'Cause with those memories made with him
He's never really gone!

"Brave Elite"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
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!!
Thank you to ALL whom have served this great country. Words could never express my sincere appreciation for ALL you have given! I pray these words I have penned show just a portion of my gratitude!!

"My Rock"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
My Lord and King I come to you,
don't know quite where to start;
You know just what I'm going through,
each burden on my heart!

You know the struggles here on Earth,
the sorrow, pain and strife;
I need your presence here today,
Your hand upon my life!

At times like this when life seems hard,
the devil means me harm;
I find such strength to see You stand
right there with open arms!

Direct my paths, show me the way
to follow Your command;
Please open up my eyes to see,
direction of Your plan!

I thank you for just keeping me
as shepherd keeps his flock;
My King of Kings and Lord of Lords,
My Master and My Rock!

"Victor in Life"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
When hard times come in life you live,
your back's against the wall;
They all seem big, so hard to cross
each hurdle seems too tall!

Keep focus on the prize ahead,
keep moving at your pace;
Just look ahead to cross that line
and soon you'll win life's race!

Don't 'ere lose hope, keep pressing on,
keep doing what is right;
Just charge ahead to win the war,
don't once give up the fight!

When forced to climb the mountainside,
at times you'll feel so weak;
Just forge ahead, keep looking up,
for soon you'll reach the peak!

Now at the top, just look around
to see how far you've come;
You've beat the odds, as victor now,
in life you're number One!

"Blessed Glory Land"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I know that I have left you now,
so heartbroken and alone;
Don't grieve for me, I'm more than good,
since now I'm Home sweet Home!

I just walked through Big Pearly Gates,
saw Peter standing by;
I met the Angels one by one,
they taught me how to fly!

Then Paul and Silas showed me 'round,
through srtreets all paved with gold;
Each saint's so young and happy here,
it's true, not one soul's old!

I just heard someone call my name,
I turned in time to see;
A group of loved ones gone before,
come running up to me!

You won't believe the music here,
the Angels have a band;
I met my Jesus, face to face,
and touched His nail-scarred hands!

I'm still in awe, I feel so good
no aches and pains at all;
The blind man now can see for once,
the lame man standing tall!

So now you see, 'Tis Glory Land
no longer that 'ole world;
When Jesus calls I'll meet you here
behind these Gates of Pearl!

"Special Friend"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There's not too many people,
who have but one true friend;
A shoulder for to lean on,
on whom they can depend!

Someone who'll always be there,
for when in time of need;
That special one who'll always lend
a hand or helping deed!

A friend who'll always help you,
they'll go the extra mile;
Someone to hold you up all day
if only with a smile!

A person who will listen
when pouring out your heart;
The one who's never left your side,
they've been there from the start!

That wholesome leader as a friend
who's lifted you in prayer;
That special one you'll never doubt
or question if they're there!

The one who never judges you,
as sin in life you trod;
The one who's always knelt and prayed
you'd turn your life to God!

I thank God for your friendship,
through sorrow, pain and strife;
I pray someway I can repay
your friendship in my life!
Nov 2016 · 195
"Have You?"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
Have you not been what you should be
as a husband, father or dad?
Have you not been any leader,
failing My God, oh-so-bad?

Have you said you will on one day,
then the next you really won't?
Have you hurt the ones who love you,
hanging with the ones who don't?

Have you pushed away your family
with the hateful words you've said?
Have you spoken words of anger
then run out the door and fled?

Have you seen the hurt you've caused them,
had a son who wished you're there?
Have you once had to console her
when your daughter cried those tears?

Have you held her tight in loving arms
when your wife had one bad day?
Have you crushed her heart again,
cause she knew you wouldn't stay?

Have yo failed your son and daughter
with the sinful life you live?
Have you ever thought about it,
what your wife has had to give?

Have you opened up your eyes now,
put yourself aside and pause?
Have you felt their broken hearts from
all the hurt and pain you caused?

Have you reached the very end now
of the sinful life you trod?
Have you seen your family needs you?
It's not too late, just turn to God!

Have you asked My God forgiveness?
Yes, your broken hearts, He'll ease.
Have you shown them what He's done now,
filled your life with joy and peace?

Have you gotten back your family,
fought so hard for those who care?
Have you prayed to God above you,
for His love with them to share?

Have you called on Him to help you,
your relationship repaired?
Have you now seen it's important
to your family if you're there?

"Last Dance"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
There's times I feel I cannot live
a life without you here;
It's times I feel I'm by myself,
Alone- my biggest fear!

Without you here beside me now
I feel I can't go on;
I now can see how this days come
I've lived my life all wrong!

I  never realized what I had,
I wish I'd given more;
It hit me quick that moment when
you walked right out that door.

You give me chance, I'll make you proud,
I'll two step through my part;
You hold on tight, I'll rush right in
I'll waltz back in your heart!

It won't take long to prove to you,
I learned from my mistakes
I'll focus on my one true love,
all others I'll forsake!

So as I come with open arms,
don't leave me standing here;
Just let me wrap you up for life
to show I love you dear!

I write these words to ask you now
just give me one more chance
To hold you close, to waltz with you
to have just one last dance!

"Expressions of Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
This love I have for you my dear
is tearing me apart;
I can't express with simply words
this feeling in my heart!

I can't describe with Webster's words
this feeling of true love-
The closest thing to Heaven on Earth,
a blessing from above!

Since God came down to Earth one day
to live like you and me;
He broke all chains of sin that day,
then died to set us free!

He gave His life to show His love,
to catch us when we fall-
The best example of true love
is giving of your ALL!

I pray He'll give me strength to show
a love so close to His;
Forgiving love to last all life,
a sign of what love is!

I'll do my best to make it known
through sorrow, pain and strife;
How much I love you everyday
each moment in your life!

With my God's help, I'll make it clear,
how much I love you dear;
From moment now till my God calls,
then calmly re-appears!
Nov 2016 · 262
"Lost Love"
Kenny Whiting Nov 2016
I've missed you bad for so long now,
I've shed a many tear;
Still looking for that special day
you'll finally re-appear!

I never had one single doubt
when you became my wife;
We'd be together for all time,
not be apart for life!

I'm ripped apart so broken now
and crumbling from the pain;
My life without you by my side
can't ever be the same!

I still have dreams your with me here,
you never walked away,
But then I wake up by myself.
to face another day!

I'm lost without you in my life,
much harder than it seems;
What's harder than to live alone-
to live with shattered dreams!

I look for you near every day,
to walk back in the door,
I still hold tight, so badly want
that love we had before!

I never knew what lonely was
now it's my biggest fear;
To live this life all by myself
so lost and lonely dear!
