I Await The Tide
~*Marge Tindal*~

O' Maker Of Life
into this earthly shell I am bound
until I am washed upon your shore
awaiting passage
forevermore at peace
among the oceans of my people

Having floated many moon-moved waves
I now await the tide that will bring me
into the serenity of your gentle waters
Whenever you are ready
I will come home to you

~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~

Dear Marge: I remember this one and it's even more meaningful than the first time I read it. It answers a need in me!

What a graceful way of putting the journey from this life to the next. It reminds me of how someone else viewed death.. as a ship leaving one shore to the crys "There she goes", but appearing on another shore to cries of "Here she comes"!

Beautiful, my friend.

Oh, make me Thine forever
And should I fainting be
Lord, let me never ever
Outlive my love for Thee

Thank you all so very much~
I felt the need to post this one again ... it was somewhere in the archives and need to be sung once more time~

Thank you for letting me sing it for you~
