In Loving You

In loving You I found a sweet happiness
Inside my heart, I received a blissful joy
I found in hope, a living answer to repair
All of the lonely times I once employed

I found a true hunger to open wide my eyes
Beholding the beauty which is found in You
I have many new reasons now to live my life
As I find such pleasure in daily serving You

As the many stars and the moon fill the night
On my knees, to You, I quietly kneel and pray
Finding Your love brings me the desired peace
While it brings a needed blossoming to my day

I treasure the countless moments of loving You
While with each deep breath my face now smiles
Finding true happiness will never be displaced
By Your desirable love that makes life worthwhile

In each spiritual moment spent in communion
My heart brings to life genuine praises for You
Your touch of grace makes my life a paradise
Your love became my ultimate dream come true

(January 1977)
