Dreamland

I see you in the mists of my dreams,

You're always right there.

Even if you can't be with us daily,

Each and every night we share.

Your faces seem faint -

Somewhat of a blur.

But it's definitely you -

That, I'm very sure.

We never meet eye to eye,

A painful fact, upon which I dwell.

But within the realms of dreamland,

We know each other very well.

Once you were here with us,

Before that life did end -

I know we'll finally meet again

I just don't know when.

So for now, my Dear Sweet Babies,

I'll see you every night.

I love you My Precious Ones -

And I'll see you again in God's light.

Harden My Heart, O Lord!

Harden my heart, O Lord,
That I may truly experience
the miraculous wonder
of they blessings.
For my heart is so soft,
and is aching with
the pain and torment
which surrounds me.
Such suffering and loss
overpowers my senses
and malignantly seeps
through to my soul.

Embrace my heart, O Lord
let my spirit soar
with wonder and love
and see past today
to the miraculous end.
Keep me ever mindful
each of us learn
and grow through our
trials and tribulations.
I know we must tread
through turmoil, to reach
peace at the end.

Protect my heart, O Lord,
that the harshness of life
does not diminish the value
I place on the many
blessings bestowed upon me.
Allow me to see and feel
the joys and the love
thy blessings do intend.
Don't let me get mired down
in the pits of depression.
Allow your love to shine
through me to help others.

Amen
