One Cry for All
O Mother Earth, Father Sky.
Hear out weeping, hear our cry.
The earth has rent us apart today.
Our lives and loves have been taken away.
Heal our broken hearts with God's eternal love.
Show us the healing of the Holy Spirit through His dove.
Bless us this day and keep watch over us in every way.
* In memorial to those lost in the 3/11/11 8.9 earthquake in Japan.
O Mother Earth, Father Sky.
Hear out weeping, hear our cry.
The earth has rent us apart today.
Our lives and loves have been taken away.
Heal our broken hearts with God's eternal love.
Show us the healing of the Holy Spirit through His dove.
Bless us this day and keep watch over us in every way.
* In memorial to those lost in the 3/11/11 8.9 earthquake in Japan.
The Twilight of Life
Today in the fading twilight of summer's best,
We laid our mother to rest.
Why did she have to go from us this way?
God couldn't have spared her another day?
Soar on mother to the sky,
You are now with the angels on high.
Until the day when we shall meet once more,
We shall treasure your memory to reside at our hearts door.
Whispers of God
I hear the voice of God whispering in the breeze;
gently blowing through the trees.
Soft ruffling across the skin;
A feeling of awe within.
A dark velvet sky above;
created by His hands of love.
Stars that twinkle like diamonds in the night;
filling my soul with all that is good and right.
So take time to stop and hear;
the still small voice of God, whispering in your ear.
The Glory of Heaven
Heaven someday I will see,
What a bright and glorious day that will be.
When with my Savior face to face;
I'll be filled with joy and grace.
To walk on streets of gold,
And know you'll never grow old.
Glory be to the Father in Heaven above,
What wonder! What joy! What love!
Cotton Candy Clouds
Cotton candy clouds floating on a black velvet sky,
I watch with wonder and sigh.
Gently over my head they go,
drifting by as an ice-floe.
Wishing lazily that I could take a bite,
out of those cotton candy clouds at midnight.
Or swing my legs over the side,
and take a wonderful and magical ride.
Cotton candy clouds floating on a black velvet sky,
I sigh and wave good-bye.
The Lonely Pine Cone
On the sidewalk all alone,
set a small and lonely pine cone.
Having fallen from aloft,
and landing ever so soft.
It lay ever so still,
in its new found domicile.
Far from the tree above where it rested,
from whence even the birds nested.
I took the pine cone home and set it by the fire,
for all who saw and could admire.
And now I must extend,
my farewells. For this is the end.
