My Love, My Life



Tear the memories from my head
Sometimes wishing I was dead
As I climb to hide within my bed
As ravage tears that I do shed

I sleep to pass the time away
Only wishing for a new day
It’s times like this that I do pray
Hoping words of comfort will come my way

Bring me relief and love today
Make me feel alive with the new day
It’s times like this that I do say
My faith and hope will carry me away

I give thanks for the love in my life
She brings me joy, she is my wife
She captures my love and my strife
She is my hope, she is my life
