I Could Not Forsake Thee

I Could Not Forsake Thee
 
Your precious love I could never forsake
Your spirit is with me when I sleep till I awake
 
For your love’s in my body and in my soul
Let the ferocious north wind take it’s toll
 
I have moved onto a higher place
Now I’m constantly in a state of grace
 
I feel that I can reach out and touch the sun
Every dawn a bright new day has begun
 
For you live on deep within my hopeful heart
Please say that from me your love will never part
 
For your love truly is an inspiration to me
Now I can see what it means to live free
 
Take me to where the wild wind blows
Peace and understanding I have come to know
 
You are the mighty eagle as he spreads his wings
You have the voice of an angel when he sings
 
You are the morning sun as it kisses the dawn
You gave my heart a home where it belongs
 
Your love is the painted sky and the deep blue sea
I’m so happy that you have not forgotten me
 
No I could not forsake your holy love
For it is written in the stars that shine above
