In each prayer, through words sincere, I hear Him smile with a voice so alive, a voice that decides when His song begins, when His voice stills, when His love reveals the joy in knowing how it feels to love without reason, to love completely, to love – believing… by poet Reckless songs silence the ache, Breathless lyrics, memories being made, In colors of light, softly glowing, Pouring out life through the hearts who believe, Those who see Him in each shadow, each tree, Those who see Him amid the embers of grace, The beauty in a face, the soothing embrace… He is light – He is love – He is the moment I think of… When I gave my life to Him, And it seems, this was the only place to begin… Seeing the hope, raining down from His skies, Feeling the love, lingering on the light, Knowing the belief, forever soft and silent, Hope, faith and love… abiding in the soul, Stirring my spirit, my memories… remembering… I’ll always believe – I will always believe Because He is the sweetness in each sun, He is the light that abides through the dark, He is the joy that silences every fear, He is the gentle that wipes away the tears, He is the moment when I sought to truly feel… The wonder of a love that is more than real. This is a love that comes from God Himself. It abides in the soul and never leaves me alone. It is like a prayer’s shadow, always reaching down. It is filled with kindness and mercy, compassion… That is like an unending embrace, a feeling of faith. It is a lesson learned, assurance that God has won. It is the miracle of a soul who knows Jesus is the hope… That allows love to always hold on to the soul, Allows love to always take away the worst that comes, Allows love to abide inside the one who knows HIM, The answer, the promise, the way to peace that fulfills. He is the One that brings me to tears. And, He is the One who wipes away every fear. He is the One I turn to when I’m in need. And, He is the One who frees my soul from sin. He is the One who lives inside where I know… Faith that believes – with Him, I’ll always survive, The worst that is, the despair and the dread. With HIM, I know what it means to be alive. With HIM, I’m someone who seeks to shine … A light of love that offers grace to those who yearn… For the ONE I know – as God’s one and only Son, The answer to each prayer, the love that is aware… Wherever Jesus is… there is love that always gives, There is love that forever lives… Love is Jesus’ gift to His children. Love is Jesus’ promise, His wisdom. Love is Jesus’ reason for forgiveness. Love is Jesus’ light – God’s reflection, Always shining hope through the spirit, Always shining … inspiring, inviting… Hearts to love – to sing – to give, To lift their voice with a song to still… Every darkness, every fear, every doubt, With love that only God could have brought out, Love that only the Son could have stirred… With His blood, He proved His love – Without the shadow of a doubt – We’re always going to know saving grace, We’re always going to seek God’s will, We’re always going to hear His voice in the stillness, As we praise Him who knows us… as sincerely faithful!
