Too soon,  my  Lord,  I  give and share

For You,  my dreams  of  hope and  care

Begin  and  end  in  joyful  praise

I  beg of  You,   Your peaceful  ways.

Protect me  Lord,  I’ll ask  no more

Than  that Your  heart’s  an open door

That  offers  me a  final  choice,

Lift  up my  heart and  hear  my voice !

AMEN

I sometimes think we’re here too long

And never know where we belong

We spend a lifetime here and there

In laughter, joy or in despair.

Mongst all the feelings that we’ve had

Perhaps we’ll settle for the glad

Some kindly thought or gentle word

Yet nothing sounding too absurd.

The world is full of magic still

If we accept God and His will

Learn to appreciate the gift

And to the Lord our praises lift !

AMEN.
