I Know These Things…

 

 

There are a few things I know to be true

Love never lets you down it’s the people you love that do

Life has taught me that in all of us the voice of God resides

It’s the stubborn man that refuses to listen to his wisdom

Only when you accept him as your Father are you truly blessed

And I know this to be true that pain which touches

The very depths of your soul builds a home and takes up residence

On the other side of that pain awaits deliverance from ourselves

For we are our own worst critics and the compassion we show others

Just a touch of it would serve us well

The reason why we walk this earth and not the heavens

Perfection resides with God let’s try being only human

I know this to be true that not a day goes by I don’t know

There is something bigger than myself

A power far beyond my scope of understanding

Is pulling the strings and we all dance to his voice

The only voice that matters and when you listen

Something beautiful is being touched if you stand still long enough

You will hear your voice and his in harmony

Making a beautiful life together.

(there’s a strong religious theme in many things I write even though I have fundamental issues with religion and all it encompasses. There can be no denying even though some will-we didn’t get here on our own.)
