Listen to your life. See it for the fathomless mystery it is.

In the boredom and pain of it, no less than in the excitement and gladness:

touch, taste, smell your way to the holy and hidden heart of it,

because in the last analysis all moments are key moments,

and life itself is grace.

There's no easy way to do this.

So do it right:

weep, laugh, watch, pray, love,

live, give thanks and praise;

comfort, mend, honor,

and remember.

When streams turn pink in the setting sun,
And a slight shudder rushes through the wheat fields,
A plea for happiness seems to rise out of all things
And it climbs up towards the troubled heart.
A plea to relish the charm of life
While there is youth and the evening is fair,
For we pass away, as the wave passes:
The wave to the sea, we to the grave.

There is a river

And it flows from deep within

There is a fountain

That frees the soul from sin

Come to this water

There is a vast supply

There is a river

That never shall run dry

There was a thirsty woman

She was drawing from a well

Her life was ruined and wasted

And her soul was bound for Hell

But then she met the Master

And He told her of her sin

He said, Child, if you'll drink this water

You'll never thirst again

There is a river

And it flows from deep within

There is a fountain

That frees the soul from sin

Come to this water

There is a vast supply

There is a river

That never shall run dry.

=Jimmy Swaggart=

And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb.

Wonderful baby, livin' on love

The sandman says maybe he'll take you above

Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows

Where babies float by, just counting their toes

Wonderful baby, nothin' but new

The world has gone crazy, I'm glad I'm not you

At the beginning, or is it the end?

It goes in and comes out and starts over again

Wonderful baby, I'll watch while you grow

If I knew the future, you'd be first to know

But I don't know nothin' of what life's about

Just as long as you live, you never find out

Wonderful baby, nothin' to fear

Love whom you will, but doubt what you hear

They'll whisper sweet things and make you untrue

So be good to yourself, that's all you can do

You're a wonderful baby, livin' on love

The sandman says maybe he'll take you above

Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows

Where babies float by, just counting their toes

Where babies float by, just counting their toes.
