I Knew So Little Kindness

am i dreaming?
should i be believing?
or was the time before
the nightmare i abhor

when angel queen
was not to be seen
I Knew So Little Kindness
for there was only darkness

then a blazing light appeared
the angel queen had drawn near
my soul was redeemed
she was more than i ever dreamed

Where Little Hands

like the beating of distant drums
to announce an army comes
so thumps the little heart
a brand new start

softly we go now
into a future we do plow
Where Little Hands
change all our plans

by and by
three became 13 minus nine
will wonders never cease?
may fortunes ever increase

The Beacon to the Free

this momentary fright
of the limit to delight
puts us in hand
the truth of this land

harsh though it be
for eternity
The Beacon to the Free
this land shall be

one nation
forever in imagination
without limit to our souls
forever against the cold

To Think of Soon To Be

softly grows the mound
and there is no getting around
that soon a new beginning
will come to keep us smiling

little bit of sunshine
is smiling from morning to night
To Think of Soon To Be
a big sister is she

father times two
to our growing brood
mother once again
the story is without end

Across The World I Will Reach

so we slip into forever
these verses will sever
the promise of doom
found within the tomb

forever you shall shine
angel queen all mine
Across The World I Will Reach
forever and anon i will teach

all the people will know
that heavens grace was here to show
that all doubts are as smoke
and fear is forever broke

In a Quiet Way

little she is troubled nights
begging for safety from her plights
wiser beings know
the troubles are all her own

she in her bed must stay
and learn to play
In a Quiet Way
at the end of the day

as the teacher would say
a quick drop off is the best way
so 4 year olds can fall asleep
and rest deeply in their dreams

Troubles Roll On

a little birdie
told me
that soon we
would see

a new glory rise
the ebbing of tide
Troubles Roll On
a new song is sung

all storms
by the wind are given forms
so soon to blow out
and pass on do not doubt
