MORNING SONG
When sun breaks forth on beaten path
Think of those things which ever last
Remember all those days of yore ---
And what my life itself stood for....
Try not to dwell or linger on
Things and incidents long gone ---
But look instead to Higher Ground
Where songs of hope and love abound
Think not that I have gone away
Close by your side, I'll ever stay ---
I will not leave you comfortless
Look around - You'll see the best
Is standing right in front of you
From the moment that you said 'I Do' ---
And all the others added to
The rich, full life God has for you.
Be not forlorn because I've gone
Ahead of you - But yet, stand strong
In faith, believing all God said ---
We live beyond the mortal dead ---
Keep me inside your heart - Alive -
Hold tight the wealth that dwells inside
For hands extend themselves to you
Is not just THEIRS, but MINE, so true
To bring you healing, hope and joy ---
That nothing can take, rob, steal or destroy
Remember to whom you truly belong ----
You are GOD's child - His MORNING SONG -
And when the evening sun sets low
Think of me - of those we know -
Let ne'er your heart - oft troubled, be
-
Just know I'm well, I'm strong ---
I'm free.......

BEDTIME STORYOnce upon a time, I dwelt upon this earth
My commitment was to Jesus - I knew of His
Great Worth
I followed in His Footsteps and raised my
little ones
To always do the right thing and glorify
the Son
Now, mortal bonds are broken - Yet things
of Spirit last
My children are still earthbound and clinging
to the past
However, they know better than to grieve
too long for me
Because they know I'm living - and will,
forever, be -
So, speak again and tell them - their hope,
in Glory, lies
I have not ever left them - I'm always by
their side
As God Himself spoke often in Scriptures,
straight to me
He commented directly on that which was
yet to be ---
So are my children blessed with this special
gift from Him
All they must do is LISTEN and YIELD themselves
to Him
For God Himself will lead them, in their
lives on earth, you see
Because I sought the Father - And He has
promised me!!

SOAR HIGH
I know, deep down, you cannot stay
Too many things stand in your way ---
The timing is not right, you see
For you to live your life with me ---
You have your own world to figure out
Experiences afresh and new things about
Which I can never enter in ---
They're reserved for YOU and sent by HIM
So, do not grieve or struggle more
Over what this means or what it's for
Only know that God directs our way
And He will lead you - day by day -
Upon the path He has for YOU
Although it doesn't include ME too -
I realize within my soul
It's God who gives and He who controls
The wind, the waves, and all our days
He will not fail as you learn His ways
Keep your heart pure and your mind free
One day, the face of God, you'll see
But as for now - 'tis not the time
To uproot more than what is mine ---
Your life is meant for greater things
Soar high, my child ---
On Angels' wings..............
