Love's Destiny

Love's Destiny

a tiny seed was dropped out from a farmer's bag
 onto the fertile soil in time roots would spring up
 through the duration of time we have created a rhyme
 a pulse of the heart will light the spark to where we need to go

 What hurts you the most ? Is it fear or death ?
 the tranquil pier on a clear brisk morn
 clouds over hang to bring a pale atmosphere
 each of us elapse in our own inner thoughts

 reckless wanderers as distant nomadic herdsmen
 with all the twists and turns through snap shot variation in a dream
 we then come to a better understanding from deeper within
 love is the essence of our eternal existence

 learn to cultivate honest laughter with a smile
 to know all the great while we each our accountable
 Oh, Lord, I love you so much
 Possessing such a forgiving touch

 Praising your name doesn't seem enough
 Through past times that were so rough,
 No matter where or what I may do,
 My path always leads to you

 Life is not a mystery to me;
 It's all about setting one's self free
 Lord, you make me feel whole and complete
 Knowing only I can ever cause my defeat

 Keep me from all that which is profane
 Humble me Lord, in Jesus name
 My heart is forever in the Lord
 Where all stand fast of one accord

 In this world I am but flesh and bone
 I no longer wander, I have found my home.
