Tell Me

Tell Me Tell me somewhere there’s joy that’s waiting laughter, people celebrating. Victory for all of those that’s crying that’s loving someone dead or dying. Tell me there are restful hearts where beauty in all its splendor starts. Where children laugh and run and play with angels watching night and day. Tell me there is peace on earth come to us a virgin birth. Where all is well and nothing’s wrong where choirs raise their voice in song. Tell me there’s someplace to turn when there’s no lessons left to learn. Please tell me God abides up above Tell me somewhere there is love. Edwin C Hofert

I do in fact. There are times I cannot refrain from writing. In so many ways it has saved me. My release when I need it and my way of expressing almost everything. Thank you John for being an inspiration and an encouragement to myself and no doubt many others. Ed
