Widows Lonely Cry
I once held your hand
for you I always made a stand
My heart full of love for you
Years of toil much labored too
We together stood the mile
and too occasionally a smile.
I once touched your firm face
for God upon us gave his grace
Now my friend you are gone
No more this world to roam
I still miss you my love today
but still feel guilty to stray.
Years I've been alone
living on memories gone
When will I feel brave again
to further love but not in vain
I yearn for company dear
Alone I will die I fear.
So will I ever love again
why do I still feel it's a sin.
Till death us do part
why Lord, in my heart
can I not make a new start?
