What
is a man to do?
When
I feel that life is through –
Like
the winds in the willows
As
I lie here gripping my pillow,
But
I know I’m getting older,
And
life gets harder to shoulder!
The
world keeps turning,
And
this heart keeps on yearning
It
all comes down to time,
And
I know it’s all by design –
There
are still some good days,
And
a few just slip away. . .
What
is a man to do?
When
my heart longs for you!

The
beams touch the mountain crest,
And
the night can no longer rest –
The
light appears to start the day,
And
the dew drops dry as if they say:
“I
can feel your warmth of your touch,
And
I have needed you so much!”
Have
you thought of God’s perfect plan,
And
what He wants us to understand?
Everything
has been set in place –
And
His love for our human race!
There’s
so much we take for granted –
Like
all the plants that He has planted!
I
marvel at the quietness of a sunrise
God’s
beauty unfolding before my eyes.
