A Day At The ColonnadeWind whispering through the treesOleanders swaying in the breeze Birds flying through the air... Suddenly Spring is everywhere. People greeting each other on the sidewalk. Inside a few are sitting together to talk. Some watching television in their rooms While others sit and watch the flowers in bloom. Sand and surf are only a few yards away. Outside it is such an awe-inspiring day Bathed in the glorious light of the sun No clouds in the sky - not a one! Birds perched swaying on an electric wire Sunlight shining bright as a glowing fire. When the sun sets and the clock strikes eight The nurses comes over to meditate. The dishes are done, the table is set. Don't get too happy-there's more to do yet. I must take out the trash; mop the kitchen floor; Take a last walk around and lock up the doors. | After The Darkest RainThough all you friends forsake you and you feel so all alone;Remember God loves you and is sitting on His throne. He'll never forsake you, but will be with you until the end. When everyone is against you He's still your dearest Friend. There'll be times when you don't know what you should do. Remember that your heavenly Father always takes care of you. When you have so much pain and your health you can't regain, Remember the Son is always brightest after the darkest rain. | Into Each LifeInto each life there comes a friendWhose love and compassion will never end. Some days the enemy causes us woe But we have victory when unto God we go. Into each life there comes a dream Some people are kind while others are mean. Some days are filled with a bountiful supply Which flows from the river that never runs dry. Into each life there are valleys to cross But God's people will never suffer loss. Some days are filled with blessed sunshine When God's Holy Spirit has conquered our minds. Into each life there comes a way For everyone to have a brand new day. Some days are filled with trust and love Which comes down from the Saviour above. |
