Eternal Wings

 

Each trial I've been given is like a boulder that rolls into my way. 

It's a rugged journey as I lose my faith and go astray. 

I tray to take the easy way as I avoid the rugged rock not wanting to reach the top. 

As I realize the path I'm taking is going no where I come to a sudden stop. 

I fall to my knees with tears in my eyes asking what should I do. 

You answer by saying my dear child I have not forgotten you. 

You lead me to green pastures and sit my by a quiet peaceful stream. 

You whisper here in peaceful solitude may your faith redeem. 

While resting we conversed of the journey ahead. 

I have faith in you is what you said. 

I asked can't you broaden the narrow path and move the boulders from my way. 

You said if I make the journey easy when would you bow your head to pray. 

Each day your growing stronger and soon you'll understand. 

The coarse designed though tough at times your best it will demand. 

As you climb each massive rock remember I am here. 

Seek my strength to help you, I'll wipe away each tear. 

Put a little trust in me as you continue on your way. 

I'll be there by your side, I'll guide you every day. 

And when your journey comes to an end, how much stronger you will be. 

To wear the wings I prepared for you for all eternity.

 

 

Big Enough To Keep

 

I pray that I might laugh until my dying day

And then stand in front of God and say

I lived my life the best that I could do

But I couldn't have done it without you

For everytime I was tempted to do something wrong

You were there to comfort me all day and all night long

When times got to tough and it seemed they'd never end

I'd pray to you for help and guidance because you are my best friend

I just want you to know my love for you is true

There's nothing I want more but to live here in heaven with you

When miles were put between us and the distance grew far

You always remained my North Star

I know your love for me is so deep

When judging me I hope and pray you find me "Big Enough To Keep"
