Flooded Love

Have lost his hands grip Pa broke down as my hand slipped I heard him crying my name Now our lives can’t be the same Free falling into the enveloping black Beyond the edge of time I’d lost my track Then I crashed into the ferocious waters Carried away and further, my breath became shorter I gave in, sinking into deep like a small stone In the dead silence I wasn't alone There was someone holding up light Guiding us, leading us right I no longer spun, I no longer rolled Laying my faith in Him I followed without a hold Crossing a gateway towards a second realm A thousand soul's gleam Came out of the stream And out, into the night of dreams Upward we rose Higher and close To a sky that bore A million stars. Here is where I now reside But like his shadow I am by pa's side He is safe back home Feels tired and alone But God's caring and kind And I am not left behind Difficult it is this way But I am not far away Clouded or crowded may be the sky But do look up and care to smile Because right here I am closer than you think A glinting star at night And in Sun silhouetted right behind
