Behold
BeHold!
I've beheld the beauty.
Of a new sunrise.
Unmatched by the beauty.
That I see in your eyes.
I've beheld a rainbow.
Colors soft in hue.
Untouched by the beauty.
That I've found in you.
I've beheld the mountains.
Reaching up into the skies.
But nothing can compare.
No matter how it tries.
I've beheld a newborn baby.
When her mother first gives birth.
I've beheld the natural beauty.
Of life here on earth.
If I had just one wish.
If the truth were told.
The one thing I desire.
One thing to behold.
The only thing I'd ask for.
To make everything alright.
Is if somehow there were a way.
I'd beholding you tonight.
