Life is wasted on so many small worries
Drink in all of the joy and sorrow
And find your way, His way
Close your eyes and dream
Picture where you want to be
Take His hand and trust His Word
Escape the pain and confusion, if only for a moment
Trust His enduring Love
Sadness can be so sweet-
If you smile at the Love thereafter
The emotions you feel, the tears you cry
Collected in the Mercy Box
Lessons learned-
In wisdom, in faith, in love
The wisdom gained
Is a real and precious gift
Only treasured by those God has chosen
To take it all in, to give it all back in love
