You can look at old pictures
And know
He put that smile
On your face

Or you can keep walking forward
Head held to the sky
Clothed in confidence
And grace

You can remember the way
It felt in your heart
When he looked you
In the eyes

But don't let it fool you
Because the same blue that held you
Told you lies and
Made you cry

You can dwell on those moments
It just felt right
Rewind, reminisce
Or regret

But instead you can keep
Walking forward because
God isn't done
With you yet

There are times in our lives
That held the most happiness
But ended in oceans
Of tears

We can't let that stop us
From moving on
We can't leave ourselves living
In fear

Fear of tomorrow
From the hurt of the past
Will haunt you and
Tear you down

But remember who made you
Took all that away
It's at the foot of His cross
In the ground

So stop living in moments
No longer meant to be
Bury the pain
In the past

Hold onto the promise
Of tomorrow and know
God's love will
Forever last
