You Stop By To Say...
Just when I think our love is forgotten
And others may criticize and say
You are doomed to hell and with you GOD will stray
I hold my head high and hold back my tears
I listen for your voice and abandon my fears
An old letter or memoir comes my way
Then suddenly you stop by to say
I still love you and I will never leave
Worry not of me and don’t grieve
And I rest not even thinking of the day
Out of no where a drawing and my words lay
Reminding me of our everlasting love
Your promises and peace as gentle as a dove
And even they may point and judge
I can be assured there is no reason to hold a grudge
I play your words again in my mind
How you promised to take me with you
And how true love is so hard to find
That no one can take from me
Our paradise and our right to be
Then I smile I laugh then I cry
Because I know you love me and won’t pass me by
If I hold on to your hand and your promises so sweet
And walk with my lashes, suffering, and aching feet
With crazy faith I wait for you
No matter what they say or may do
I hang on Lord because you hung on to me
Always in love dancing to your symphony
So when I feel all hope has gone away
You always stop by to say …
I love you this day…
