If words could paint my heart
whatever would you see
If eyes could show my soul
I think you'd see in me
more than the pain or tears
more than the hopes or fears
more than the wasted years
I've learned to love
tenderly
tenderly
You've gone a different path
tenderly
tenderly
Keeper of the Greatest Treasure
We all have times of joy
great fun and laughing play
I've known the sunny side
I've rode the dancing day
I'd give each single smile
each treasured memory
to keep the making of
this softer side of me
I'll never judge your reason
I felt your bitter wrath
The sorrow of your leaving
Though life is chilling now
I swear, there's no regret
It's just my hardnened heart
I could not accept
That's not for me
stone strength that cannot love
My heart's been broken now
that seven times seven
Yet is my greatest gift
This side of heaven
And when I'm all alone
and feeling low
My heart shall call my name
that blessed name I know
shall come to me again
sweet lasting, living word
friend
Guardian of Your Heart
Love Beyond Measure
May You Never Part
May all your days of love
throughout eternity
be lived and shared and whispered
Tenderly
