“Stead Fast Hands”

 

With tender yet steadfast hands of love

You lead me through this dark moment

When I thought my life was over

As I was sinking deeper into quicksand of life


Melancholy started to take over

And I closed my eyes and wished to die


As the flow of tears down this face

Became tears of hope once again

With your tender but stead fast hand

You lead me through this weary moment

I dream of better tomorrows

Sitting by your side…

Even though we are worlds apart

You keep on telling me

I don’t have to become another

By trying to “remake” myself

But to be myself…

My own person

And make the best… absolute best

Of what God made

Knowing the things needed in our hearts

Holding your hand…

Across the blue waters of the world

With a tender yet stead fast hand of love

I say… and angel saved me today

I am safe

Because you restored my soul

Thank you Lord

And for “My Key” who I truly love

When I thought my love was over

You took and held my hand through this dark

With a tender...yet stead fast hand

Those are a wonderful and reassuring pair of praying hands Tinks !
And you have discovered your crucial "Key ", that only Almighty God can grant you happiness and peace of mind, no one individual on earth can give you that, you have all the ingredients within yourself to do the job, as the Son of God said !
I'm sure you will get takers on the expert crochet work too !
Love
