                           May I Live In This Life I Know
 
May I live in this life I know
Helping people as I go
May I touch someone's heart
I hope they remember me
And never will we part
 
May I live with my soul
Give love to someone I do not know
Can you look in my eyes
Do you see the reflection in the stars
I have tried my best, to get you through life's test
 
Never take the gift from your heart
And give it away, for there is only one you
No one else can understand, what to do
Do not cry any tears, for Jesus is here
 
When you are lost, or in despair
You are never alone out there
The love to create,
Is in writing about the life you face
 
I will give away my cares and worries
Jesus  carry me, for I know I am weak
 It is so hard for me to see,take me on this road, so deep
 Hold onto my shoulder
 I know for my life You care
 Let me touch the sun and the waves of an ocean
No one can touch me, without going through the Son.

WIND BENEATH MY WINGS
 
As nightime comes to greet me
I look at the stars so bright
You come as the wind beneath my wings
I see your beauty shining bright
 
When morning dawns
There is the love of God for me
He put us together
So we will always be
 
You are the wind beneath my wings
Through your eyes I now can see
All the beauty of your world
Angel love you are to me
 
Your wings fly you to my heart
As God's love you show to me
He paints with all the colors
The hope of life you help me see
 
Together we will feel the glory
Of Jesus' perfect light
You are my wind beneath my wings
A friend, both day and night

WINGS
 
I ask for someone to love me
I ask for someone to care
I ask for someone to give me wings
So I can fly in the air.
 
I ask for someone to hold me
I ask for someone to see
I ask someone to listen
I ask someone to be.
 
Give me wings of a butterfly
So I can touch the sky
Give me your heart
Never asking why.
 
I can see rainbows
Flowers all around
I can feel angels
Lifting me off the ground.
 
I ask to hold on to beauty
A love that is all my own
He does not have to be handsome
As long as he turns me upside down.
 
Give me wings to wander
Give me a life which is complete
Give me romance of my own
So I never have to weep.
 
I ask for wings that are golden
Colors which make the sun shine
A love to last forever
Someone who is mine.

RAINBOW OF HOPE
 
Look for a rainbow
When you feel there is no hope
Ask God to hold and keep you close to Him
For then there is always a blessing
Some hope to softly creep in
 
If you are suffering
And the pain is just too much to bear
Look for a lovely rainbow
It is always shining there
 
If something tragic happens
To turn your life all upside down
Like when you lose a loved one
In the sadness, eternity is found
 
If you feel your heart is broken
Your soul you cannot see
Then look for a beautiful rainbow
God's light is in the clouds
And high up in the trees
 
Hope is a gift God gave to one and all
Look for it in the dewdrops or in a waterfall
And when you find the rainbow
On a clear day or when it rains
It is a promise, God never leaves your side
He is the miracle in your pain
 
Look for a wondrous rainbow
Hope is never far away
In the birds that fly or a blade of grass
Never doubt that it will come
Within your heart someday.

Written for all the people who feel there is no hope.
Hope is the very reason you were born.
Who knows, there may be a doctor, a pastor or even a person unknown,
who's work will become famous from helping with life's illnesses.
You cannot ask for better hope then this.

MY MOST PRECIOUS FATHER
 
My most precious Father
Your great love is in my soul
Every part of me, you created
I see you in the blue sky
Which you made for me
In the stars at night
I see your face and smile
 
My most precious Father
I wish to kiss your beloved feet
Whenever I need you
All I do is smell the fragrant air
Watch the promise of a rainbow
Listen to the proud owl
The birds you made to share
 
I see the little children
Whom you care for above all
You who wrote the greatest poem
In 'The Lord's Prayer'
Who let the angels sing
In moonlight's glow
 
My most precious Father
I look at this world and see the beauty
You alone have painted
Wherever I go
Everything is Your creation
 
You died because You loved me
Eternal life became your gift
I pray now in gratitude
You accepted me into your heart
My precious Father
No one cares for me like You
 
My soul which You created
Is your everlasting love
I could not have a better Father
Than the one I see in heaven above

TO MY LITTLE ANGEL
 
I have a little angel
I carry along with me
She sits upon my shoulder
For all the world to see
 
I love this little angel
You can see her if you try
If you kiss her cheek
You can almost hear her cry
 
I have a name for my little angel
I call her mother dear
Whenever I pray
She is always near
 
Everyone has an angel
They should open their eyes to see
Within their hearts they are special
And will live in eternity

Oh, Sweet Mystery
 
I see you as in heaven
On purest angel's wings
You are so close to me
My soul can hear you sing
 
I have always loved you
And this you always knew
I hide you in my heart
You are mine, forever true
 
I remember how we sang
Our sweet mystery of life
I can still feel your warmth
For I kiss you every night
 
It will not be long
'Til we meet at heaven's gate
I wish for all to understand
Why this is our fate
 
On wings I always fly
To my darling in the sky
Happy as us two
God is forever true 
I hold you in my arms
You are mine, I always knew.

The people's poet
 
In days gone by,
people hid their love for others and kept it quiet.
By doing this, they spent their whole life
looking for the bluebird of happiness,
which as most of us know,
is right in front of us all the time.
Written for Nelson Eddy and Jeanette MacDonald

AN ANGEL ON MOTHER'S DAY
 
When the wind blows in the air
I see little butterflies everywhere
Mother's Day will soon be here
I love you mom, for you helped me see
The beauty God gave to me
 
I call your name on an ocean breeze
I hold out my hand and wait for you to come to me
On angel wings I see your face once again
The love you gave, your smiling soul
Tells me I have done what you told
 

I am glad you are so proud
Of who I became,
You knew I could make it
You are blessed, on this Mother's Day
For me, a comfort you gave
 
I always have you in my heart
Your many gifts to me
Are in my soul
My Dearest Mother,
To Jesus, I will let you go.

TEARS WILL WASH MY EYES
 
It was an ordinary day, she had no reason to cry
As you walked out the door,
You softly wiped tears from her eyes
When you left, she felt empty somehow, she did not know why
 
You called her in horror, with tears in your eyes
You told her planes had struck the twin towers
People were dying and you did not know
if you would come home
She started to scream, her worse nightmare now real
as she heard how these terrorists from Iraq
Died for religion alone.
 
Tears now were washing her eyes
Will there ever be peace again
Will there only be smoke filled skies
Or will the air clear
So all can see the horizon
And find freedom from this fear
 
She was so calm when she heard the news
Her husband high-jacked
His last words
'Let's roll em'
She heard how all the passengers
Said The Lord's Prayer, as friend to friend
They stood in a circle
Going to their death
To reach heaven
Led by one great hockey player to the end.
 
And his precious wife, tears washing her eyes
Remembered only a few hours before
How her husband touched her with his hands
The sadness had begun,
Yet, he died a brave man,
On September eleven, two thousand and one.
 
Let us all remember
Those brave men of our land,
The women and children
Who died for freedom and the American flag

Only when you lose someone for a great cause,
do we realize how important freedom and the American flag truly is.

CAN I FIND A RAINBOW AND A BUTTERFLY
 
Can I find a rainbow and a butterfly
Way up in the sky
Can I take your hand and fly up high
If I go to a little park, sit on a bench for two
When I ask you if you need a friend
Will both our dreams come true
 
Can I see a rainbow and a butterfly
If I look past the clouds
I know I can be happy now
Since I found you as a friend
Life will keep on going
For me there is no end
 
I see a butterfly, flying in the wind
A rainbow comes up after the rain
There are beautiful colors in the air
I wish I could find a love who can feel what is in my soul
He will love me for me and never let me go
Can you see with your eyes, love with your heart
A love for both, that we will never part
 
Can you see a rainbow and a butterfly
I see it with hope in my eyes
How does the butterfly never tires in the trees
The rainbow is as proud as it can be
 
Give me the wonders of nature
The gift of love
Give me wings to fly
As I see the people pass by
God's art is so wonderful
It always grows new life
I am so happy when I see a butterfly in flight

A FRAGILE FLOWER
 
Have you ever seen a fragile flower
Which flows against the wind
You may smell it and hold it
And hope that it will sing
 
I am a beautiful flower
I wish most every day
That I will find happiness
All along the way
 
If you would pick me off the vine
Maybe give me a little time
I would smile, hug you too
The sun would warm me
Love enough for two
 
I am caring, kind and loving
A fragile flower beautiful and new
If taken care of
Will live my life all through
 
I thank you for wanting a flower, such as I
Now there are other flowers
I am not the only one
I am blessed with a new day
And a bright sun

A WHITE BUTTERFLY
 
A white butterfly I saw her fly
Into the air, into the sky
So pure and so rare
I see her kiss flowers, everywhere
 
Sometimes she looks at the view
Her bright eyes, see me and you
A circle around us, as we dance
For we found true love, we are in a trance
 
A white butterfly, singing a song
One we will remember our whole life long
We can grow wings as white as snow
Together we see ourselves, in cloud and rainbows
Two white butterfly, loving and true
We will always be one, me and you.

THE OCEAN
 
The ocean is very wide and very deep
When I dream I smell the breeze
Which is so sweet, I see the never ending waves
I wonder where they go.... Do they go to a land, that I could know
Birds fly in the wind, catching fish with eyes so keen
I can hear the sound, I wonder what it means
 
The ocean so blue, like the clouds of the sky
Part of life, flying by
Let me open my arms, let me feel the wind
I can go to another time and I know I will fit in
 
I want to sail on a boat and hold my fingers in the cool water
As the waves come to me, I am one with the ocean
My life is now free, let me taste the drops upon my lips
I feel the souls of those I know
For everything I am, is in the ocean deep below
All that is me, is a song from a breeze
The ocean is a love, I could never explan
Like me, it will always be there just the same

The greatest single distinguishing feature of the omnipotence and love of God
is that our imagination gets lost just in the imagining.
