Facets of Life

Grief
So profound
Following me around
Peeking from the shadows
Surrender

Surrender
To slumber
Close your eyes
Count the little sheep
Goodnight

Goodnight
Little prayer
On your knees
I thank you, Lord
Heaven

Heaven
Blue sky
The stars twinkle
In harmony with Thee
Angels

Angels
Amazing Grace
The banjo plays
For those on earth
Hope

Hope
Within me
A deep stirring
Thawing my frozen heart
Eternity

Eternity
Loving Thee
Delivering the message
Live your life fully
Deliverance
