Who am I to you
Sweet lover of mine?
Am I what you need, and more,
In the twilight of our lives?
Daughters, I long to hear your voices
Even though a continent away,
Bone of my bone
Flesh of my flesh,
Thoughts of you fill my every day.
Friends so dear
Draw near to me,
Let me serve you in your time of need,
Share with me the sweet bread of life,
Then we’ll face challenges as they arise.
I cherish honest love
And I will honor whomever brings it,
Longing for community
As it lives in my dream,
Protecting all who need it,
In my forest so serene,
Living my life
As my Lord would have me do
And fulfilling when I can,
His hopes for you.
