Your Holy Embrace

Your Holy Embrace

You raised me from the depths of  my despair
That moment I knew you would always be there

The wind blows waves upon the untamed sea
Knew I was meant for you and you for me

I am now and forever gracefully yours
We left our footprints on the sea shore

I am surrounded by your holy embrace
All my life’s hardships are easier to face

Your love sweeps through the leaves on the trees
For my own soul I no longer need to greave

Your love is more powerful than the blessed sun
In our heart and soul we two have become one

You are the blood that flows through my veins
Your hand washes away the rivers of shame

Your love echoes through both of my ears
You are the answer to all my prayers and tears

Will you see that all of my dreams come true?
Down on bended knee I pray before you

Can you lead me to one with a heart of gold?
And will your love save my mortal soul

You are in my blood and in my very soul
Will you lend your hand until I grow old?

For in my tender heart your love reigns
Do we have the strength to live all over again?

When the autumn of my life begins to call
And all of the leaves begin to slowly fall

I can say I strived for a lifetime of bliss
And forever live memories such as this

Will I be welcomed to your kingdom in the sky?
One day when I finally pass away and die
