The Pain of Pain How painful is the pain of one you love How helplessly you watch as days go by I wish somehow that I could claim as mine The agony desease will not deny The sound of pain can pierce the silent night And dull the brightness of a sunny day If I could take this burden from your life I would bear the weight myself all of the way I wait the morning with expectant hope Sitting by your side in silence pray That you will somehow feel the warmth of love And God will bring more comfort to the day Elizabeth Santos |
