Hope Floated To Her (Sequel To My Hope Still Floats)
Upon the lands, so wishing venture
The light of love’s a beacon of hope
For I will come, I’m so indentured
Together, life, we’ll learn to cope
The rain subsides now on my vessel
My hands grasp firmly on the wheel
The ship, with sea, no longer wrestles
As now I know a future, real
My prayers were answered, sure and true
I’ll come to you, this now I say
My prison, sea, it held with fury
My heart set free, I’m on my course
My love is strong, to not be buried
As you became my guiding force
Oh, stand on shore, wait my arrival
I’ll be there with you in short a time
You are the reason for my survival
If lost, then that would be the crime
For losing you was not an option
With you then, my heart’s bells chime
