Love Comes Softly

Love comes softly and unexpected
someone is always there,
you may have overlooked
but your soulmate awaits
you somewhere.
The passion life is lacking
by choice is yours today,
there's God's will and there's ours
be patient true love
awaits.
Under every twilight sky
two stars are joined as one,
by the grace of God all mighty
they'll find each other
beneath sun.
Blinded by a feeling
created by design,
love comes softly to everyone
but only in God's time.

One Last View

God must have a reason
a divine and flawless plan,
when he called you home today
to walk in heaven's land.
As you climb that golden staircase
may He grant you one last view,
of life on earth and every soul
who'll always remember you.

Tears

Hopelessness and despair
in a drop of pain does fall,
from my eyes along my face
treasured memories I recall.
Alone I suffer in silence,
my hearts breaks no one knows,
I have to keep pressing onward
my future God only holds.
So many obstacles in my way
will I ever overcome,
is the light at the end of the tunnel
a sign of victory for the battles I've won?
The salty stain remains reminding
me of the fight,
I'm a tiny mustard seed, a grain
of sand in this journey called life.
Tears sometimes unnoticed
by those who cry like me,
will never fall in vain
someone always sees.
The one who placed me here
and knows what lies ahead
tears are diamonds of a different facet
rainbows of love that will always be shed.

Because He Lives

Because he lives we celebrate
the gift of eternity,
promised to every soul
if only we believe.
Because he lives we need not
fear nor worry about tomorrow,
when we stumble he carries us
through all our pain and sorrow.
Because he lives there's always hope
for miracles today,
when Jesus died, crucified,
his blood was shed to light the way.
The light that shines above all
the hands that open each door,
for the moment might be closed
faith turns the key to something more.
Because he lives I raise my hands
toward heaven with the ultimate praise,
the son of God has risen
and lives inside my heart today!

Tomorrow
and Forever
