Let your light shine



Life is just , a moment in time,

if we all live in darkness , whose light will shine?

A witherd heart , holds no love,

like a fingerless hand , wares no glove.,

What is death , to a broken soul?

darkness, lonelyness , or freedom to know?

It makes no differance , boy or girl,

we all must live , in an imperfect world.,

Tears that fall , from all the pain,

with so much death , what can we gain?

Only new sight , from heaven above,

through every disaster , we must find God's love,

it's deep inside , every single one,

it comes from the cross , through Jesus The Son.,

This love determines , who we are,

it shines from within , brighter than a star.,

Faith , hope , trust and love,

we are all gifts , from The Father above...
