Though the seasons always change,
Your devotedness will always remain.
Though the mountain top seems high,
The mountain valleys give me passage to try.
Though the mystery of life may seem vast,
My seeking to understand will surely last.
Though the seconds and minutes pass into hours,
Eternity enters to make the present moment ours.
Though the morning lark always sings at first light,
Heart song still lingers with the slow passing of night.
Though the day may witness an unexpected sorrow,
I will continue to make my way, today and tomorrow.
Though the world always seems to be in a rush,
I will take my time and in due course feel the hush.
Thought the world turns harsh and full of hate,
Your love will see me through with its enduring trait.
Faithfulness chooses Heaven to draw upon its strength,
In life’s journey, the road is paved with depth and length.
