If I Could
I'd like to look into your eyes
and tell you that this nightmare will vanish in the morning
or take you on an ocean cruise ...... in hopes that
cancer couldn't follow
If I could, I would take you to the
happy, carefree places of your youth
To the hideouts where sunshine and
laughter rule the day
We'd go white water rafting
and have hot dogs on the shore
I'd pray that the roar of the river
would be your refuge and that God would speak healing words to your heart
I would take you on a mountain climb
To the summit of a snow capped peak
And I'd look into your eyes again
asking you to keep faith in The One who is Higher than all
At night while you're sleeping,
I'd pray for His strength to uphold you
For His peace to surround you
And for one special angel to guide you
I'd wake you in the morning
before the dew has left the grass
We'd thank Him for another day
And enjoy the mile walk to the beach
There we would stare at the blue water stretching forever
And watch the seagulls cavorting in the breeze
We'd see the mountains in the distance
And know that God is bigger than disease or disaster
We'd have lunch on the pier
And I would take your hand in mine
Once more I'd look into your eyes
And tell you how much I love you.

The Darkest Hour
In your darkest
hour
When loneliness and despair overtake you
I'll be there
In your darkest hour
As the fear and the doubt
overwhelm you
I'll be there
I am the Light shining in your soul
And the hope
living in your heart
I am the dream you cling to
When your life seems torn apart
I am the fried walking by your side
And the family who lves you
On
this long and bumpy ride
You are not alone
And you are not forsaken
Even in your darkest
hour
When your heart is breaking...I'll be there
I am with you in the good times
And when laughter turns to tears
I'll be there in the days...and weeks...and as the months turn into
years
You are not abandoned
Your spirit...strong and true
And even in
your darkest hour
There are friends and loved ones...and My strength to see you through
