To Keep

hummingbird

 

Little things like time, words and thoughts
Shared with others, taken so much for granted
That which can so easily slip away…
How little we know how long it will last

Take all the good, place it deep within
Wonderful things that really happened
No one can ever take them from us
Locked away, ours to keep forever…
To remind us that we were special

               I Shall Not Pass Again This Way

The bread that bringeth strength I want to give
The water pure that bids the thirsty live;
I want to help the fainting day by day;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

I want to give the oil of joy for tears,
The faith to conquer crowding doubts and fears
Beauty for ashes may I give always;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

I want to give good measure running o'er
And into angry hearts I want to pour
The answer soft that turneth wrath away;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.

I want to give to others hope and faith;
I want to do all that the Master saith;
I want to live aright from day to day;
I'm sure I shall not pass again this way.
