Fountain of Your Heart

My love for you is always
abounding with drops of tears
falling on the fountain of your heart.

Our two souls need to reach out
to soak up these drops of tears
from the fountain of your heart.

Words speak I to you
do not reach your mind
or the fountain of your heart.

Our two souls need to reach out
before our love is gone completly
from the fountain of your heart.

Someday Soon

Someday I'm going to
leave this old world,
going to leave it behind.

I'm going to fly away
to that golden shore
beyond the blue.

Leaving my cares behing,
no more pain or heartache,
only content and peace,

will follow me there
for all eternity, seeing
my departed love ones,

once again in a gleeful
reunion filled with much bliss
and seeing the face of my Saviour.

Trapped In Time

Where has time went?
It seems like one night,
I went to sleep,
and the next day,
40 years passed away.

Am I trapped in time,
feeling like I don't
belong here, out of
place sort of.

Time has passed me
by, like a speeding
train in the night.

Somehow need to
deal with all
these changes
that surround me.

How Can I Tell You

I want to hold
you in my arms
everytime I see
you.

Everytime I look
into your eyes
I want to tell
you the way

I feel about you,
but I don't know
how to begin.

I love you so,
oh my darling,
and tonight I
want to hold
you tight.

Until that day comes

My God will, always guide me,
if i heed to His word
He will be there, whenever i plea

When i'm down, and discouraged,
He will be there
and give me courage

When Daniel was in the lion's den,
of his son,
did God send

I can't wait, to see His face,
of the victory,
i will taste

Until then, i'll have to wait,
and walk with him,
until someday, i'll meet him, at heaven's gate.

Colors of Autumn

I can smell fall
in the air
my eyes behold
golden leaves as
they descend slowly
onto the ground
the dying of summer
brings on fall
oh, the wonder of it all.

The Autumn colors
such a splendid marvel
painted all around me
covers me with
feelings of compassion
knowing this beauty
that surrounds me,
is only for a short time
until all the land,
will be barren

Good Ole Days

Oh, the good ole days,
why can't this day be,
the good ole days
thinking of those days,
long ago, when old age,
was on the horizon,
childhood just a step behind,
yesterday just a memory,
childhood memories when,
oh, so carefree
today the present,
will be those good ole days,
when old age is upon us
we once again wished we
were back in time and,
oh so care free.

The Storms Have Passed

the days are getting cloudy for me,
storm clouds over my head,
so dark, i can barely see,
the storms have passed by me.

the swetness of life, has passed me by,
of my life, the storms have went,
and i look forward to when i die,
the storms have passed me by.

of the Lord, i'll meet and see,
to be with Him, ever more,
and there, i'll never need to plea
the storms have passed by me.

was i said
to my self
so i bought
100 of them,

Always Tomorrow

There's always tomorrow
when you feel like giving up,
and from another day, you can borrow.

When sorrows come your way,
so confused that,
it makes you sway.

Always someone worse than you,
today may be depressing,
but tomorrow will be brand new.

Time heals all wounds,
each day will get better,
and you'll see many moons.

There's always tomorrow,
so don't give up,
and you'll another day borrow.
