A better day coming 

Rainbow in South Carolina after Hurricane Ian
There has to be a better day coming
Through this one ill just keep on humming

Dark clouds above, rain and wind lashing at the house
Soon the storm will pass, and it will be, quiet as a mouse

We've been through this many times with GOD before
A rainbow we shall see, showing GOD'S Love more and more

When dark clouds and storms come into your life
Peacefully persist, knowing soon there will be an end to this strife

In the Arms 

Being in the arms of a loved one is the most restful place to be. 
I feel so secure and safe knowing they care for me. 

Our loved ones only last a short while here on earth.
While we humbly go on living to show our worth

For teaching us about GOD and HIS SON JESUS 
HIS eternal Love will never never leave us. 

Being safe in the arms of JESUS on earth or in Heaven above. 
Is worth far far more than anyone's earthly love.

Just keep on keeping on 

When you feel down and out. Just keep on keeping on. 
When you are discouraged and have doubt, just keep on keeping on

When things look better and you see light at the end of the tunnel, just keep on keeping on
When you are at the top of the mountain, just keep on keeping on

From the start to the very end, just keep on keeping on
That's the way life is planned my friend, just keep on keeping on

Man in the Mirror 

Who do you see when you look in the mirror 
Does the mirror seem foggy, could it be clearer

Is there a person standing there that you know
Does that person seem distant to your soul

How does one make the image crystal clear
Within me, the answer is so very near

A crystal clear image will produce a clear reflection
Only GOD can rid us, of our imperfection

His Touch 

His Touch is beyond our imitation being seen and felt
At the Foot of the Cross of Jesus, where we once knelt

Whatever we need, can only be found, by the gentle Touch of the Master's Hand
With the completeness to fulfill our every desire, we will come to understand

His touch only comes as our journey leads us closer to Him
Touching the hem of His garment, everlasting love comes flowing in

Prayer is the key to Heaven but Faith unlocks the Door 

If prayer is the key to Heaven and Faith unlocks the door
Is it found here on earth, or on a very distant shore 

Is there a Heaven here on this earth 
Do we have to wait till we die
Is it possible to have enough Faith to see Heaven through our soul’s eye

The answer to this question, remains deep inside you
It’s how you see JESUS and the results of what you do

How Close Is He 

How close is He, How close is He
He's much closer than I can see

How close is He, How close is He
He's closer than my breath in me

How close is He, How close is He
My Savior, now He wants to be

How close is He, How close is He
He's so close, He has set me free

How close is He, How close is He
He takes my hand so that I may see

Ho close us He, How closes he
Wherever I go He travels with me

How close is He, How close is He
He lifts me up, for his love to see

How close is He, How close is He Praise God He's leading me into Eternity

How close is he, How close is He
His glorious  face I now see

Along the Way 

When you go to work day after day
What do you think of along the way

I always thought about, what was ahead of me
Most often, there were things I could not see

Problem-solving, was the most interesting time
Relying on past experiences, to try and make a dime

Little did I rely on the Creator of Mankind
Always thinking I could solve the problems, with my own mind

Only turning to ask for help from above 
When I realized I had lost my love

An ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure
If only we would ask and not try to be so mature 

Turning to GOD, is not a sign of weakness in any way
It's a sign of strength and perfection, in GOD’S Love every day

The Bridge 

Ravenel Bridge in Charleston South Carolina
Why is there a bridge and what is its true purpose
It's a structure that connects us that can't be purchased 

If there wasn't a cavern in between
No bridge would be needed or foreseen

GOD Sent HIS SON to bridge the gap between HE and Man
Over the gulf from eternity to our soul
The bridge of Love does span

Once that Love comes into our heart
We are connected to GOD never more to depart
