Weathering By: Noah Eaton 12/21/01 My Good Lord, I’m head over heels I want to tell you how good it feels Of how you’ve set me free I felt just like the devils marionette In tangled strings and vast regrets Now I've never felt so promising... Now that you’ve reached out to me I am free... I hope you can see How much I love Thee All that I almost sacrificed I now dearly prize These holidays I thank you blissfully, my Lord For weathering me through the storm One flew over the mares nest I have dodged all my demons with loves parapet Looks like clear sailing from here I have swam endless seas of depression and fought tidal waves I’ve been struck by lightning and seen the eye of the hurricane And all along, you’ve held me dear Now that you’ve reached out to me I am free... I hope you can see How much I love Thee All that I almost sacrificed I now dearly prize These holidays I thank you blissfully, my Lord For weathering me through the storm All my life I have strived To find some peace, in all this time All my life I have tried To seek my dreams, and make them mine Dear God, promise me you’ll always be my guide Never let me go, show me the light Now that you’ve reached out to me I am free... I hope you can see How much I love Thee All that I almost sacrificed I now dearly prize These holidays I thank you blissfully, my Lord For weathering me through the storm I will spread my wings for you… I will spread my wings for you… In the name of Love I'll always share my love I'll brave each flash flood I’ll always be… Weathering… [This message has been edited by Mistletoe Angel (12-21-2001 10:42 PM).] |

Noah - I must agree with Lyra, I thought it read like a song as well. Faith can definitely weather you through the numerous storms that life throws at you. Well done. Dave |

Well i'm glad these storms of depressions are behind you my good buddy. Very nicely put, He is the only one to thank, for everything. From your good friend Randy Meador a life lived unexplored is a life not worth living. |
