Tell me why it is

Tell me why it is that we grow up being taught to love one another
That, as litte ones, we learn to see everyone as our sister and  our brother
But once we become older; we become afraid of showing our  love
And forget that we're all so closely related: with the same Father above

Why is it we're taught as children  that what's important is what's inside
And that we really shouldn't judge one another by what we see outside
But  then somewhere along the way; when we stop being so very  small
Its not  important what's inside but the outside becomes  most important of all?

Good Morning

The birds are singing and welcoming the day
The night is fading darkness is passing away
The earth is waking  and reaching out to me
My soul is touched by what I'm not able to see.

Gentle breezes are moving  here and there
A cool crisp wind  is felt almost everywhere
I'm getting ready for what the day will bring here
The angels are whispering to me "do not fear"

The sun is rising and gives the day a start
Its shining  brightly I feel it deep inside my heart
What's yet to be remains hidden from my sight
But I am inspired by the Everlasting Light.

The heart is trembling

The heart it is trembling while  the tears they do fall
Memories of those past hurts I am starting to recall
How can I not hear them or remember that day
I will be there in a heartbeat and again I will stay

The tickets are purchased, the  rooms are reserved
Thinking of those moments has left me unnerved
My breathing becomes labored and paled is my skin
Oh please tell me it'll be over and wont happen again

The heart it is pounding and I feeling so  weak
Words are now surfacing; I'm unable to speak
Frozen by  the trauma that happend back there.
Memories  keep reminding me that life isnt  fair

It's time to be leaving and to be taking my flight
To a place that I'm dreading where day is like night
Without understanding of what will take place
I go back there to embrace whatever I must face

I am just a simple person

Today the storms are on me as I try to find words to say
I am not anyone special there's no red carpet along my way
I am just a simple person there's nothing in me meriting praise
I'm not seeking for recognition or a place where royalty stays

I am just the person  I am and I cannot be anything more
I'm sorry if this person I am;  may see so unfashionably poor
But that is who I really am; and I wouldn't  ever seek to be
Other than who I am:  which keeps me far from popularity

While some may run after applause or the sparkling lights
And others may find their happiness swamped in earthly delights
I cannot say that it's the same that is captivating my soul
For I have no great ambitions and Heaven is my only goal.

As the universe greets me

I open my eyes as the universe greets me
The birds are alive with their newest melody
All around me creation is singing so sweetly
Wake oh wake now and see what there is to see

I listen with my ears and I hear the trees echoing
Songs of the birds and the flowers and everything
All the world joins together and I can hear them sing
A song that is speaking of the inner peace returning

Can you hear it now that  you're going through this simple  rhyme
Or does the universe find that you simply don't have the time
Can you a pause for a moment and tell me what you can hear
Do you hear the sound of creation; isn't it  very near?

Angels will be sent

Demons of the night have been haggling over me
Satan's little minions just won't let me be
I won't let them win though they fill me with great fear
I will call to Jesus and He'll send His angels  here

Terrors of the mind are messing with my peace
Though I try to stop them they simply will not cease
So although I am trembling I will ask Jesus to be near
He will send His angels and they will stay right here.

Whenever  I am alone and the flashbacks hit me strong
I feel that I am so helpless that I cannot carry on
But still I find it in me to cry to Heaven Above
And God has sent me angels to bring me all His love
