Enduring Faith

I've dreamed many dreams that never came true, 
I've seen them vanish at dawn, but i've realized enough of my dreams
Thank God, To make me to want to dream on...

 I've prayed many prayers when no answer came through i waited patient and long, 
But answers have come to enough of my prayers
To make me keep praying on

   I've trust many a friend that failed and left me to weep alone
But i've found enough of my friends true blue
To make me keep trusting on...

     I've sown many a seed that fell by the way for the birds to feed upon,
But i've held enough golden sheaves in my hands
To make me keep sowing on..

       I've dreamed the cup of disappointment and pain.
And gone many days without song,
But i've sipped enough nectar from the roses of life
To make me want to live on!!!!!!!!
