The Choice Music&Lyrics: Rhonda S. Galizia I just want to sit and bask In the warmth of your love I don't want to talk about What I've suffered from What I've suffered from... I just want to feel* The silence of your voice And to quietly remember... You did not have a choice Because you hoped, to save me For I could not, save myself Thereby, you created, the situation Where you alone, could be, my Help! I just want to sit and bask In the beauty of your love; How can I, discuss What I am guilty of What I am guilty of... I just want to remember You've suffered more than me And that still, I find you here ...waiting endlessly ...waiting endlessly! I just want to hear The silence of your voice When you took my stripes So I could have the choice. Because you hoped, to save me For I could not, save myself So you created, a situation Where you alone, could be, my Help! I just want to sit and bask In the truth of your smile I don't want to try to explain nor do I know how... I just want to touch The silence of your voice When you loved me Most of all So I could have...the choice Because you hoped to save me For I could not save myself So you created, my situation Where you alone, could be, my Help! I just want to sit and bask In the warmth of your love My Saviour There's no need to talk about What I have suffered from What I have suffered from... For I can truly feel The silence of your voice As I quietly remember Making YOU...my choice. c.1998 Rhonda S.

Oh the eyes to see and the ears to hear what so much of this world cannot, but so desperately needs.

You have affected my life in inexpressible ways Rhonda!

You are certainly one of the shining beacons here, and I imagine that in your church and hometown that the light of your calling shines undauntingly.
