Please walk a while with me my friend,
Along life’s beach which has no end,
Beside its oceans ebbs and flow,
That special place where true friends go.
Hold my hand and watch the sea,
And wonder why all birds fly free;
Your inner soul may ask you ‘why’?
Don’t shed a tear, no time to cry,
For God made every grain of sand,
He made it bold, He made it grand,
He made it thus, that you and me,
Might wonder for eternity.
If I love you, and you love me,
Then surely it was destiny,
That you and I should be as one,
To sail into that setting sun.
But for the while just be my friend,
My love for you will never end;
For time will set, of that I’m sure…
Our sails towards God’s heavenly shore.
