MOST OF ALL

I have your picture hanging on the wall, there comes a time when I miss you – MOST OF ALL.
On cloudy days and rain starts to fall, that’s when I miss you – MOST OF ALL.
When the wind blows through the trees, birds and bees bow there heads in sympathy.
That’s when I miss you – MOST OF ALL.
There’s not a day that goes by that I don’t stop, and look at your picture, and gaze into those big brown eyes.
That’s when I miss you – MOST OF ALL.
On holidays when the sun refused to shine, that’s when I really miss you – MOST OF ALL.

TAKE TIME

We Must take time, for the small things in life:
Like stars shining on a windless night, clouds passing by in early daybreak.
Sun beams bouncing off of forest trees, leaves getting ready for autumn breeze.
Children looking up at hot air balloons, man is talking about going back to the Moon!
We must take time to smell the flowers as they bloom
And look up at snowcap mountains as they try to touch the sky,
And imagine watching baby eagles trying to fly.
So, we must take time, before life passes us by –
This all can happen – In the blink of an eye.

SO GLAD

There’s only one thing I need on this Earth – that’s you.
You feed me with your words, you solidify my unquenchable thirst.
You watch me grow, as I Journey from place to place.
Yes, you stand over me, and you give me Grace.
So, everything I need I have, and it all comes from you.
You’re my sunshine in the morning, you’re my Moonlight at the end of the day.
You’re everything I asked for, in every single way.
When the clouds walk in and find me, and I shiver in the shade.
When I look up and I can’t find you, then you reach out and give me your hand.
To guide me to a place, where I can plant my feet on solid Ground.
Knowing that you will never leave me, knowing that you care –
As I look around and I can’t find you, but I know that you’re there –
By the gentleness of the wind blowing through my hair.
It took a long time for me to find you, but you were always there.
To watch me, and guide me, without saying a word.
You’re my bridge Over Troubled Waters, you’re my sunshine after the rain.
I’m so glad that I found you;
Now we’ll stay together, and meet in silent prayer.

ALL ETERNITY

You asked how much I love you? This is all I have to say.
How deep is the ocean, how wide is the sea?
How many seeds in an apple, how many leaves on a tree?
If you add them all up, you will see.
Not only do I love you, you’re also my best friend,
And that’s why I will love you – over and over until the end –
Of all eternity.
