You Take Away the Coldness of My Life

In a day of trouble my hopes to vision in times 
Of weaknesses; my uncertain thoughts in dreams,
Things aren't the same that I expected.
You take away the coldness of my life.

In my lonely heart, aching pain of body
And mind no one can touch reach me, 
To my lowly desperate time.
You take away the coldness of my life.

In my struggle ahead  in day to day activities; 
Worry mind, financial matter include, relationship 
Involve, in my moment time like this. 
You take away the coldness of my life.

In every step of my way in a road I am walking by,
Don't know where I'm going, you point me to the
Direction you want me to go, in a daily step of the day.
You take away the coldness of my life.

In my silent moment, you teach me to sing a song 
For you that gives me a delightful expression of 
My heart. You open my eyes to the beauty of your 
Wholeness that can carry through to my life destination,
Indeed: You take away the coldness of my life.

My loneliness, my distress, my pain and sorrow,
And my hopelessness. You are there, to take away 
The coldness of my life.
