Sister, Still We Do

In the final restful moments at the table of our time
Count the many blessings that we've called yours and mine.
In giving and in taking joy has known us many ways.
We are so lucky to have known; so many miss the blaze!
And through the good things ...throughout the bad
Remember what we take with us is all we ever had
and still we do...sister still we do. 

Laughing in the daylight hours and laughing in the night,
Trying to take our little cares and make them work out right.
Holding onto simple things like sharing breathless sounds
And giving into loving things to cherish hearts we've found.
If you ever lose your way and don't know where to turn
Remember all the love we've ever felt and ever learned.
and still we do…sister still we do

Snow capped mountains standing there sparkling in the light
and seas of oceans swimming underneath a sunset flight
are all the beauty anyone can know or comprehend.
They remain the statement of the fact that beauty never ends.
No matter if we gaze on them in sight or memory
The lesson of their awesome gift is still there for us to see.
and still  we do…sister still we do

When night is dark and so are days
and it's hard to see your way
remember I am with you every mile,
every scary step along the way.
We have been there for one another all along
And even in our weaknesses we have proven we are strong
and still we do…sister still we do.
