Beach Retreat
Beach Retreat
As life's burdens collapse on my shoulders
And reality knocks me off my feet
I realize that time has again arrived
to escape to my beach retreat
I feel the closest to my Lord possible
as the golden sand envelops my toes
Here I enjoy our sacred relationship
as my spiritual faith in him grows
Witnessing waves breaking into a clear blue sky,
Tell me, who could ask for more ?
What better place to relish God's work
than sitting on the ocean's shore
I have yet to outgrow my beach retreat
in spite the years that I grow older
I'll always associate the beach as a refuge...
A place where I can encounter the vast meaning of life
a place to lean on my Lord God's shoulders.
