IN LIFE
You
taught me the good things
I learned my own bad
So much a product
of the impact you had
On all that I am and all that I do
Since I had the fortune
to be here with you in life
You
passed on your patience
by giving your time
I took some wrong turns
but I'm turning out fine
The love you have given
has shown me the way
To deal with the world
I face everyday in life
The
wisdom of ancients
I've seen in your soul
It passes through time
and never grows old
Something inside of me
knows that it's always been here in life
When
I needed courage
you stood by my side
You offered compassion
and truth when I cried
You seized every moment
to help me to grow
and gave of yourself
more than you'll ever know in life
You
opened my eyes
to the truths of all time
and I came to recognize
so many signs
Each of them there
to show me the way
Every night and every day in life
