Unfinished verse

Sometimes pieces of poetry are just unfinished. This one is, but I thought I'd put it out there anyway:

Untitled

If I could settle your thoughts

I would whisper peace to you

If I could have comfort your heart

I would shower you with love

If I could have lighten your load

I would share your burden

If I could see you smile

I would focus my gaze only on your face

Songs that remind me of other people

Some songs just lend themselves to reminding you of someone. I have many of those songs - this is just one.

"How Can I Keep From Singing"

There is an endless song
Echoes in my soul
I hear the music ring

And though the storms may come
I am holding on
To the rock I cling

How can I keep from singing Your praise
How can I ever say enough
How amazing is Your love
How can I keep from shouting Your name
I know I am loved by the King
And it makes my heart want to sing

I will lift my eyes
In the darkest night
For I know my Savior lives

And I will walk with You
Knowing You'll see me through
And sing the songs You give

I can sing in the troubled times
Sing when I win
I can sing when I lose my step
And fall down again
I can sing 'cause You pick me up
Sing 'cause You're there
I can sing 'cause You hear me, Lord
When I call to You in prayer
I can sing with my last breath
Sing for I know
That I'll sing with the angels
And the saints around the throne

(as sung by Chris Tomlin)
