His Sunset God, I come to you with a friend in mind I must give her heart a little peace this time I need to pray that she dreams my heart Tonight, she must feel me even worlds apart... I've just heard her words of an unfair game She needs my love so her world can change And, I've found a view she can hold at night So, as I pray, Dear God, take me to her tonight... I want to be there when she closes her eyes And, I want to hold her, God, across these skies Let me whisper the way to an awesome place She'll then find you, God, face to face... I will lead her upon the greenest hills i see Because the higher we are the closer she'll be As we are standing there, God, reach for her hand Now carry her to your precious land... She now must see what you so lovingly share Show her that sunset and how much you care Tell her how each color says something new And, that the rows ahead are made from you... Point out the palest blue mixed slightly with white Tell her it stands for the times you are there by her side And, before her tell her what the pink row shows Tell her it stands for peace so her heart can grow... Make sure she sees purple and all that it holds That this color is what keeps her from the bitter cold And, she must see the red in it's many shades Tell her red is the love that will keep her safe... I want the gold tones to stand far from them all Tell her this color here will never let her fall And, throw in some green where the sky then ends Let it be known this stands for a lifetime friend... God, you've shown her that a sunset is more than a view And, you've shown her now that it comes from you With your help I gave her your heart and your home And, I've just given back a dream of her own... Saun Sauni :) |

God, you've shown her that a sunset is more than a view And, you've shown her now that it comes from you With your help I gave her your heart and your home And, I've just given back a dream of her own... You sure turned to the right place to ask for help... she is one lucky girl to have one such as you to want to share this with and with his help, how could you miss. |
