So beautiful you are.

So wonderful,

Your light pierces the dark.

So merciful, you take me as I am.

Your love

is like an unending river

pouring down on me.

Your love

reveals the truth even when I can’t see.

Your grace

leads me to where I’m supposed to be,

in your arms.

That’s where you want me.

So majestic,

so majestic you are.

So powerful,

You transform my heart.

So perfect

is your will for my life.

You turned night into day,

created joy out of pain.

You see through my heart,

and you know my name.

Your love

is like an unending river

pouring down on me.

Your love

reveals the truth even when I can’t see.

Your grace

leads me to where I’m supposed to be,

in your arms.

That’s where you want me.

as the sunrise draws near.

Bringing a new day,

another chance to start over,

to overcome the impossible

because You made it that way.

And I know you’re here to stay.

You washed away my fears

and dried all my tears.

Letting go of wasted years.

Turned darkness into light,

seeing the day with new eyes.

No need to hide behind a disguise,

for You will never leave me or forsake me.

Please break my pride, and make me more like You.

For you are perfect, and beyond all compare.

Thank you for your unfailing and unending love

that will always be there.

yet another has passed.

Striving to make it through the everyday race,

I don’t want to come in last.

But you say,

be still and hear me.

I know where I want you to be.

You’ve been running far too long,

and child, you’re not that strong.

You can’t do this on your own.

So be still.

The world is spinning.

Faster than ever.

So much time lost.

Letting go.

Moving on.

Another chapter gone.

A new one begins.

A fresh start.

Thanks to His work of art.

Another season.

A new reason to believe,

accomplish and achieve.

When the next chapter is through,

You will remain.

Always the same.

Neverending friendship,

compassion, care

but most of all love.

Thank you for these chapters.

And You say in the end,

I’ll live happily ever after.

awestruck at the scene

not knowing what lies ahead.

the future’s looking so bleak.

hope gone, faith weak.

uncertain of where to go from here,

a step forward, three steps back,

she’s gotta keep herself on track.

never forgiven, never forgotten.

a little peace is all she wanted

but now her memories are haunted.

she’s trying to press on, keep moving on

before she’s too far gone.

this road is getting way too long

only to find herself a little less strong.

never forgiven, never forgotten.

heart aching,

eyes holding back tears

that have been bottled up for years.

wondering if everything will be alright,

not winning the fight tonight.

standing in shame,

life wont be, can’t be the same.

Lost Love.

Broken heart.

Stuck here.

No way out.

Yet hope is oh so near.

A second glance,

the last chance.

Head up, feet on the ground.

Lost love can still be found.

A different day, the same routine.

As the faces pass, i’m still holding so much back.

Looking behind me, a shadow of just another day

is so close by.

There has to be more than this to life.

Our time is now to stand up for what is right.

Our time is now to end this ongoing fight.

Our time is now to make the face of a stranger

and turn it into someone with a past, present and future.

Our time is now to step out of our comfort zone,

to face the unknown.

Our time is now to spread the love we’ve been given,

and keep it no longer hidden.

Our time is now to not let another child go hungry or unloved.

Our time is now to make today not just another day.

Our time is now to be teh hope of the future.

Our time is now to change this world of despair

into a world of love, joy and salvation.

And I saw the tears streaming down her face,

I felt so useless and ashamed; that i could do nothing.

As she tried to explain the pain and the hurt

that she’s gone through,

I can do nothing but try to understand.

But I can do no such thing as to

comprehend what she’s telling me.

All I know is that she misses her sons

back home, a place she will never see again.

And still, I can do nothing but listen and comfort.

My heart breaks, and a silent tear streams

down my saddened face.

I am asked what has happened

when my eyes are no longer dry.

And I can only reply with the word “nothing”

because of what they’ve gone through,

and the stories they tell me.

“Nothing” seems to be the correct answer.

I just wish there was more I could do,

more I could say,

to make the heartache go away.

You’ve done more for me than i can begin to explain.
You’ve taken my sorrow, my shame, pain and regret
And made me brand new, made me in you.

You’ve turned me on to the path less taken.
But this time, on this road, I know I’m not mistaken.
I want to know you, love you, need you and breathe you.
Oh God, hear my cry.
You’re what I’ve been waiting for.
And now that I’ve let you in, I refuse to shut this door.

This isn’t an easy way, but there’s no turning back now.
You’ve brought me too far into the light that I dont deserve to see.
So take me as I am, Lord.
My flaws, my imperfections, my scars and your beauty.
Because this God, this is me.
