A Love Who Won'T Let Me Be

You light the fires within
my heart causing tiny
embers to become ablaze
filling my world with your
love's glow while sweeping
my love filled mind away

For each time when I pray
to You all over again, I start
to ascend for I am touched
deeply by Your bliss that in
love I simply begin again

I start to feel the way I felt
that memorable day we first
did meet and like that day 
You are still the same as again
Lord, I am swept off my feet

And the fires are always fanned
daily that inside of my spirit lives
so deep while my heart will still
be a willing slave to a true love
who will not let me be...

"Happy Fathers Day, My Lord."
