Light

 You are a light that brightens a dark

A pure and perfecting wife

A lamp that brings forth the warmth of true North

His Word so lighting your life

Once in a while when I look over at you

Next to me soundly sleeping

Your face it is bright like a wee little light 

Reminds me it's God who is keeping

When I awake and you are restless with dreams

With your anxious wimpering and jerking 

When I pray it is He who helps you to be free 

I watch as He's wonderfully working

We can only predict, we can't actually know 

What's in store for us when we pass 

Will we know one another, remember our brother?

Resolve things of a life at long last?

I do hope we know as I do love you so

I want all of our memories at hand

Each memory's a prayer of our lives that we share

As we stroll through His wonderful land 

Golden bowls full of prayers held by the elders

Each available to all of His saints

We are firmly upheld and encouraged as well

By the perfect picture it paints

I pray for you and you pray for me too

Timeless team as these bodies grow old

God hears in His Spirit and, although we can't hear it,

He increases our prayers a hundred fold.

Philippians 2:13-16

For it is God who works in you to will and to act in order to fulfill his good purpose. Do everything without grumbling or arguing, so that you may become blameless and pure, “children of God without fault in a warped and crooked generation.” Then you will shine among them like stars in the sky as you hold firmly to the word of life. And then I will be able to boast on the day of Christ that I did not run or labor in vain.
