God is my true compass along lifes road
He channels my ship no matter the load
He bellows the wind and pushes the tide
Wherever I go, He travels beside.
I’ve known for awhile I am not alone
How patient He when my goal is unknown
In the terrible tempest living brings
He’s there at the helm and when the bell rings.
We’ve traveled quite far soon our journey’s done
We’re off to the west to follow the sun !
Life has taught me so many things
To walk with God and sup with kings
To speak with angels and the saints
Enjoy the pictures nature paints,
To love myself and show respect
To souls who suffer from neglect,
To treasure peace and do my part
To heal lifes pain and ease the heart.
This precious gift I wish to share
Bears this label, “handle with care”
I pray I will not fail this cause
God help me please to tame my flaws !
A lacy heart, a tender tug
A gentle kiss, a loving hug
We have no need to lovers be
Since friendship binds both you and me.
We have been friends a long, long time
When we all knew a kinder clime
Though days of old are long forgot
We comprehend forget-me-not !
