The Way To Gleams
A mother's love may visit pain
If one child's hope looses its dream
A chasm deep in her soul screams.
Oh God, please let his faith remain.
Youthful goals and priorities
Can cloud love's path eternally.
Forgive forgotten boundaries.
Trust in God move onward boldly.
Lofty thinking, respect askew –
Browbeaten and misunderstood.
Before too long joy says, “adieu.”
Remember let not evil brood.
But seek the light and trust His Word.
Cherish life and integrity.
Be not afraid soft voices heard.
Give all for love and selflessly.
Fear not the loss of future fame.
But seek to melt your soul in love.
Success becomes an earthly game.
But families are from God above.
So when, my child you feel great pains,
Ask God above to show you dreams.
Be sure that faith in God remains.
He knows the path to love and gleams.
