oh the light returns
after a long journey home
the longing of the presence
laughs and reminds me
to remember it is alright
and always waiting for me here


and I feel that love divine
in a moment I find
the beauty that can embrace
all beings in such heavenly grace


and I want to hold that light
to become that promise in my soul
but the clock is tickling
in the time is left for me to know


there’s a silent prayer
a feeling in the heart that is heard
there is a pleading to be truly alive
and allow a greater acceptance now

so I reach my hands up to the sky
and ask for the strength to survive
and do what I must do today
with the living presences unconditional love
there to guide my life
