Celebrate life everywhere
Live without worry or despair
Pain and suffering does one no good
If you live a life of oughts and shoulds
Learn from our youth a zest for living
Instead of being resentful and unforgiving
We choose our path with wonder and grace
Don’t be beguiled by deceit and disgrace
Invigorate your heart, mind, and soul
Regret and apathy makes us old
Give your partner deserved esteem
A boastful tribute to the extreme
Shakers and movers force our hand
Risk compels us to understand
Tis better to try and fail
Than to move through life like a snail
Take heed slackers and face the music
Act now or dare to lose it
Use your talent to help others
Forget selfish schemes and love one another
When you exhale for the last time
Remember your friends in your prime
Our legacy lives in those we touched
People we admired and loved so much

In "A Touch of Your Presence" are words that would inspire, encourage and strengthen one's soul when faced with challenges and difficulties and to know the awesomeness of God's power.
