WHEN GOD SPEAKS




If the world come crashing down
Life getting out of hand
The sun’s no longer up the sky
The heart burdened with the plague of life
And a voice whispers to you to be calm
Just obey

You've lost everything worked hard for
Struggling so hard but success is afar
You are on a journey and found you're all alone
The joy that once reside lost and gone
If the scripture tells you a little longer be strong
Just obey

Maybe all your life the world is obscure
Lay your head but can't find peace at shore
Weary and sad, prayed but answer is delayed
The night staying up longer, life topsy-turvy
Heard God servant's on the alter call
Just obey

Whatever challenges you are going through
If all your blessings seems displaced
Reason yet unknown to you this day
Don't let your hope and faith to faint
If God calls for a selfless sacrifice from you
Just obey

A STRANGE FEELING




Isn't it strange how the mind holds a million thought?
The heart so strong it can withstand a thousand falls
Of all the beautiful and amazing things created, man has but one life to live
A heartbroken, shattered and betrayed can be restored only by love

God commands the world but gave man a free will
We meet as a complete stranger and undoubtedly gave away our trust
A man work earnestly every day, despite the future is unaware of
There are destruction and killings on our street, yet we live in harmony

FOOTPRINTS






Footprints are left behind in life's journey
Of people that has walked by the path in our lives
Like memories of love ones which reflects in our dreams
An acquaintance once a stranger now a blossom friend

We've met people who never became a part of our lives
For many pathways will man walk on these journey called life
Many as the stars planted up in the cloud
We must work hard and thrive to create our own path

A storm may wash away ones footprint off the shore
Given us an opportunity to live a life fulfilled and devoured
With motives that will impact the lives of people around us
And challenges of the well being and purpose driven the heart

As does the footprints of people we love to forever be with
Footprints of our first date and the memories they bring
Footprints of downfall, success on decisions made
For these are the paths that led to who we are today

We will forever leave footprints behind in our lives
Either it leads to a destination or for a reason it’s stagnant
Depends how life is treated and our relationship with people around us
And the choices made every day while we're threading through life
