The Next In Line

Somehow, I am in the center of divine
Swarming in the hearts of the righteous at last
Just longing in the arms of the longing
And, dwelling in places I never knew I could have...

Sometimes I'm given a brief moment to touch the sun
To find it is you who's carrying me this high
It isn't often that I'm given warmth in this way
So, I give praise in your effortlessly lift to the skies...

Each and every time I hear that thunder roll
I run for shelter even deeper in my mind
I expect the rain but much the same you've never allowed it to fall hard
So, I pray you're rewarded with extra kindness and the next in line...

Now, I have been awake all night trying to get it right
Oh, just what is there I could give back to you
You were the one to reach me so gentle and completely
Here's wishing you're next in line to soar the blue skies, too...

How you have been there when I've been everywhere
And, still knowing you could take all the pain away
Then these words came to me and more then you'll believe
I asked God to help me with what I'm trying to say...

I see, I do see you, as that light that guides my way
I feel you, like I'm dreaming, praying I never wake
I need you like an angel needs the miracle of night
And, I love you, like that awesome light, lighting up my life...

Oh, I think of where we've been and every now and then
It surely takes my every breath away
My life will never be the same and still all that remains
Is this poem, my gift, I give to you today...


Somehow, I am in the center of divine
But it's you that deserves to be next in line
I'm still praying you receive more then life can bring
Another prayer that you're next in line to get your wings...
