Sonnet Lyrics

Because You Love Me
I Can Look With Quiet FaithBeyond Life's Lightning Flash
And Thunder RollAnd Glimpse The Rainbow Arch
Like Some Angelic Wraith
While Impatient Years Exact Demanding TollBecause You Love Me
My Soul Can Soar With Eagle Wings
Above My Crowding Failures
And Disenchanting DeedExplore Beyond Life's Sunset
Where The Heavenly Choir Sings
Climb Nobly To The Summit
Where Love Alone Can LeadBecause You Love Me
You May Still Perchance ForgiveYoung Love's Towering Expectations
Laid Now To RestThose Unfulfilled Dreams
Which Somehow Still Must LiveCloistered Beneath The Portals
Of A Matron BreastBecause You Love Me
Milestones Are Like Jewels Fair
Priceless Treasures
From God's Sacred Vault Of TimeI Thank You For The Beauty

And Meaning In The Life We ShareAnd Praise God For The Blessing
Of This Love Sublime
