Sometimes our lives just melt away
Where have they gone, we cannot say
Tis like a wind across the sands
That garners strength, makes no demands.
One moment here, another there
Perhaps unsafe, sometimes unfair
Oh Lord, please help us day to day
Show us the way we need to pray !
Your happy dreams are always there
You simply need to know just where
The searching can be half the fun
Even when being done by one
True happiness comes from the heart
It only needs a smile to start.
Remember when it rains all day
The plumpest worms come out to play
Thus birds and chicks all gather round
And chirp a song with joyous sound
Reminding us no matter what
Our memories are all we’ve got !
My heart is worn, it’s tired too
The battle’s done seems overdue
The time is now to call an end
While there’s still strength left to defend.
A faithful trust, a tender care
A loving God I’m sure is there
I need no favor to implore
For who am I to ask for more ?
