Solitude

The wind it blows throughout the trees
The birds they sing so heavenly
The lone wolf howls at night so clear
A life alone it does not fear

Sometimes it's nice to get away
From all the things that cause such strife
Or makes my life to go astray
It's then I sit and contemplate

I think of what my life would be
If I could have some peace of mind
It's then I have to get away
So I can sit and softly pray

It feels so great to read the Word
It's then my heart is truly stirred 
For when I am alone with Him
My mind and heart are renewed
