Today I hope you pause...let silence kiss your name Count the blessings...not the burdens... set aside the blame Be grateful for the hands that held you when you fell For the doors that slammed shut...yet saved you just as well I hope you remember the miles your soul has run The nights you thought were over... now reborn with sun The whispers of the struggle... the laughter through the pain The broken pieces gathered... now a crown remains Today I hope no voice makes you feel less than whole No shadow clips the wings God planted in your soul I pray you see your vision carved in diamond skies And walk with holy clarity no doubt can compromise May heaven hand you tools to build what hearts deny May truth reveal the purpose that no man can defy May His will unfold in order, perfect, pure, and true And may the eyes that doubted stand in awe of you Today feels different...like still waters sing Like closure wears a halo...like grace has grown its wings I hope peace surrounds you... like rivers never cease And the storms that once betrayed you bow their heads in peace I hope for many things....but one above the rest That the weight of yesterday lays softly down to rest And everything that hindered...every wound, every bend May it all fall silent....Today... let endings end
