I Pray, I Sing, I Laugh, I Sigh
I PRAY, I SING, I LAUGH, I SIGH
I have been funny
I have been sad
I have been silly
I have been glad
The one thing I do best of all is be me
I have cried myself to sleep
I awoke with a smile
I have often wonder where and why
I pray
I sing
I laugh
I sigh
But sharing life with my family
Sometimes makes me want to cry
We have said goodbye and hello a number of times
Babies born and loved ones passed
The dreams, the hopes of all
We share and encourage daily as we go
We have sometimes taken the wrong road
When one of us takes the other by the hand
And leads us home
So I must continue
To pray
To sing
To love
And to sigh
Isn’t this a wonderful life.
