That Special Feeling.

Some days I feel down Then I remember the song My father taught me when I was young And I sing with a heart so free Jesus tender shepherd hear me Bless thy little lamb tonight Through the darkness be Thou near me Keep me safe till morning light. Some days I feel sad For the pain and sorrows of the world Then I think that tomorrow will bring joy and surprises untold. Some days I feel so upset By the ill treatment of elderly folks And then I think that in future days The elderly could be me. Some days as I watch a child at play And witness the joy on his face I wonder if there was ever a day elderly folks were in that same exact place And as I wander through time I look up at the sky To see clouds scudding by Across the bluest skies And I get a special feeling, a knowing A feeling of having come home And I know that even sorrow and pain shall pass As quickly as clouds scud across the skies.
