Thank you for your loving touch,

The warm embrace I need so much.

These quiet moments spent with you,

Are all that’s left, that’s good and true.

 

I'm grateful God that you’re with me,

That I’m allowed your company.

When pain is all I realize,

Your vision soothes my weary eyes.

 

And when my back is weak and bent,

And my youthful life is spent,

Golden moments shared with you,

Will paint my faded life anew.

 

You bring me peace and life that’s long,

filled with love and glazed with song.

When my visit here is through,

You’ll be waiting there, it's true

Patiently, at journey’s end,

With arms outstretched - my One True Friend.
