Oh, how bright
and joyous
feels the day

With painful
memories
far away

And silver
lining’s
all I see

Oh, how bright
and joyous
days can be

First
do no harm
a promise so
easily made

Then
in harsh light
on friendship’s stage
each must wait

For
softening words
to touch the hearts
of those who played

I don’t think this
feeling will
fade soon
or that
it ever will

And if I trust
my heart and
believe
what is
inside me still

I should not be
afraid to
go on
and be
a caring friend

And have faith that
with His help
love will
find a
way in the end

I turn the light off
and close my eyes
Our Father
in the hope of
losing myself
which art in Heaven
in a dreamless
sleep and
not wake up
Hallowed be thy Name
before my alarm
Thy Kingdom come
shocks me into the
realization that
Thy will be done
another day
is waiting
On earth as it
to be filled with
thoughts I wish
is in Heaven
I didn’t have.
Give us this day
Maybe tomorrow
our daily bread
will be a better
day filled with
and forgive us our
enough distractions
to keep my mind
trespasses as we
from going where
it hurts all
forgive those who trespass
the time.
Maybe. Hopefully.
against us.
And if there is a
chance to clearly
And lead us not into
see what I should
be doing, please
temptation but deliver us
let me understand
what You are trying
from evil.

I want to paint
with a brush
big enough
to erase
the mistakes

I want to paint
with a palette
rich enough
to create
pure magic

I want to paint
with a heart
sad enough
to show
the pain

I want to paint
with eyes
clear enough
to see
the end
