for lowlah...

it's so hard to lose someone
someone you hold so close
it's so hard to give up someone
someone you cherish the most

just when the river starts flowing
and hope just keeps on fading
there is someone reaching out
holding on and waiting

when you have no more tears to shed
when your strength is gone
and your voice unheard
when lights vanish and darkness spread
take the hand that love has stretched

it's so hard to let go of someone
when memories are all that is left
it's so hard to say goodbye
leaving thorns in the flesh

wipe your tears dry
smile and let your heart fly
look forward to a brand new day
he'll provide a way

rainbow

The falling rain dissolves into mist
And the thunder begins to die
As the sporadic lightning fades
An arch of colors pours from the sky
Rainbows appear after mighty storms
When things look their worst
Just when the skies are darkest gray
Out of heaven does the rainbow burst
God first sent the rainbow to Noah
As a sign that His word is true
The rainbow's eternal message
Still speaks to me and you
The rainbow is a sign of God's promise
That He will guide us through any storm
That He will ease all our troubles
No matter what their form
When you feel battered by life's storms
And you are filled with doubt and dismay
Just remember God's rainbow is coming
For it's blessing ...you only have to pray.
