Silver Lining Clouds

I watch from my garden today,to see just what may come my way.
    I hold back my cries and look to the sky.For the silver lining I search for each day.

                    I think God has my plan in the palm of his hand.
                           The one thats been written for me.
                      I've asked and I've prayed, almost everyday.
                            To give me some hint or some clue.

   My prayers never answered, My ears do not hear.
                          I muffle my sighing,I hold on to my tears.
  I look towards the sun with my answers of none, So I search for the silvery shine.
                      
                       We are not given maps of our lives.
                          We know not our limits of time.
                                Our compass-Our souls.
                                  To help us feel whole.
                           To help and to guide us along.
 
                   The lucky will find,the best thing for the times.
                 The smoothest path as it winds though our lives.
