I Want Something Beautiful To Live For

I want something beautiful to live for, Something far beyond what eye can see, Something far beyond what ear can hear, Said my aching, lonely heart to me. Then I heard a Voice from deep within me, Say to me so very lovingly, "I can satisfy your deepest longings, All that you need do is come to Me." "I am Alpha and I am Omega, I am the Beginning and the End, Come to Me and cast your cares upon me, I will be your everlasting Friend." I replied, "Oh, Lord, I will come to Thee, I long for the Life You want to give, You, Who satisfy our deepest longings, Who, alone, can teach us how to live." (copyright 10/30/15)
