Oh, only in your arms
am I able to find my rest
as though I were a child
rocked to sleep
by a loving mother.
Oh, in this world
all full of noise and bluster
where I am blown to and fro
like a bird in a storm
and savaged deep in my soul
I find my shelter in your arms.
Oh, then I can forget
the storm that rages around me.
Oh, salvation you give to my heart
and my life I can live again
finding my life
in the love within your arms.
Oh, how the words of love
that fall from your lips
and your warm kisses
fine like some ancient wine
are a healing balm
to my soul
binding up my wounds
and causing all my dark memories
to flee.
Oh, let me live
within your  heart
and you in mine
through all the rolling ages of eternity
till the world fades away
like a garment grown old.
Oh, and then love
for all the forevers  to come.

Oh, how the snow had fallen
in my soul
and an icy chill has fallen
upon this heart of mine
as though it has become a frozen lake
in the center of all that I am.
Oh, a deep frigid chill
has lived within my bones.
Oh, how I was a lost man
that lived in deep shadow
of a grief that I have had
for your love.
Oh, and this longing has been
such a deep aching pain
that my mind
had fled from me
and my heart failed me
and I was death.
Oh, how I wished
to be no more
and all the universe with me.
Till the day you set me free
and it seemed that I was in a dream.
Oh, as though God had sent his angel
to take me to the gates of the blessed.
Oh, that was the day
you released my soul
for that sea of pain.
And I cried as your arms held me
and I knew that your love would never end.
Oh, that was the day I knew
that all your love is real
and that was the day my life began
and all the world would never again be the same.
Oh, you have melted the ice
that has so tortured my soul
and healed my wounded heart.
Oh, let us live in each others eternity
far above this cold dead world
to such heights that loveless men can never know.
Oh, let us pass the ages in each others arms
and live in our bed of passion
for as long eternity seeks its course to run.

Oh, your love is a light that shines
into the dark places of my heart
and frees me from eternal night.
Oh, how I find my rest
in the soft and sweet *****
and your loving heart
that beats only for me.
Oh, how I feel as though I were a lost child
who has at last found her mother
after long ages  have past.
Oh, my soul lives
in a deep burning desire
to be forever yours
and you forever mine.
Oh, I know
that this heart that beats within me
only beats in its desire
to make you ever mine.
Oh, my love for you is a fire
that consumes me
both body and soul
and I am left without words
and a deep aching pain
that only you
in your mercy can quench.
Oh, my love and longing for you
shall last as ages roll
and the sun forever spins
upon the wheel of time
and all my dreams
are of you
as I lay upon my bed
in silent slumber.
Oh, all the night and all the day long
thoughts of you swim within my heart
like fishes that forever swim
in a deep blue sea
and I am taken by force
by your intoxicating form
and every power in heaven
and every power on earth
or that dark formless world below
can never pluck you from my heart.
Oh, though the wheel of time
may ever spin in its eternal way
and countless ages pass
you shall ever be one with my soul.

Oh, let me be the one
to live as a treasure within your heart.
Oh, do you count me
as only one of a vast crowd
as vast as a cloud of locust
that covers the land
all interchangeable
each one for one
and of such little worth
as the dust blowing in the wind.
Oh, is my heart to you
such a prize
that all the fibers of your soul
you would give
just to hear me say
that you mean heaven and earth to me
and my heart and all that I am
shall forever belong to you.
Oh, the pain I would bear
and the blood within my body
I would drain
till my face and my form
would become like veil of white satin
and my flesh as cold
as a snow covered hill.
Oh, just to hold you
in these two loving arms
that ache so in all their longing for you.
Oh my love I have but one prayer to you.
Oh, let us live
for the love of one  another
till all the stars
that are spread through the inky black of space
all burn away
one by one
and time unwinds on its endless way
till all the world is no more.
Oh, and let us ever love each other still.

Oh, it is love
that made the world
and spun the stars
into the velvet night sky.
Oh, it is love
that spoke all that is
and all that ever shall be
into being
as he place the stars
and all the worlds
that hold a living treasure
so dear to his heart
one by one in the glittering midnight sky.
Oh, he made the butterflies that flutter
through the cool sun kissed dew
in the early morning light
and the sun to kiss the rose
that grows for two star crossed lovers
and the moon to shine down
upon the silent and sleeping world
while dreams dance
through every creature's head.
Oh, and I know
that my love for you
will shine forever like the sun
as it follows that wheel of time
on its never ending journey
across the endless blue sky.

Oh, the memory of you!
Oh, how it echos forever through the halls of my mind.
Oh, and when my thoughts turn to you
and the flame of you burns so brightly in my heart
oh how you set my soul on fire
and I burn and I burn in my longing for you
that no human tongue can express.
Oh, my heart how my heart has become a fierce furnace
that burns ever hotter than the center of the sun
and all my hope and all my dreams live in you.
Oh, for I know that without you
all the days I have ever lived
are as nothing
only blowing dust in the wind!
Oh, and I know that it would be far better
that I would have never been born
that my eyes had never seen the light of day
than to suffer
all those pains that would engulf me
and all the cold and cruel
disintegration of my soul.
Oh, you are the only meaning
in my heart
by which I have the will to live.
Oh, how I know
only your love can ever save me
from a fate more cruel than death.
Oh, please my dear love
love me till the end of time
for only then can I know
the real reason that I live and breath
and my soul knows why it is.
Oh, only then can I ever know
that I am whole.

Oh, my life was once my own
and the thing my heart would too me
that is the thing I would do.
Oh,  but how those dark shadows
grew within my soul
and my heart was forever hid
from the light of the sun
and oh how those shadows
penetrated into my bones
and I was chilled in my soul.
Oh, I was so sad
and I was so all alone.
Oh, how I was like a king
lying dead upon his throne.
Oh,  and then I saw your  lovely form
and so how you seemed like a light that shined from heaven.
Oh, how I treasure the memory
made upon that day
when I first called your name.
And then you like an angel
shined your love into my heart
and brought me back to life.
Oh, how the love of your arms
was a warm soothing salve to heal my soul.
And my heart rose  on eagle's wings
from its dark and icy cold grave
and my soul shall never again be the same.
Oh, if the words could only flow
like a river stretching into eternity
ever telling of my love I hold for you
and of all you charms
oh that river from my heart
would forever flow
for no words could ever tell of all my love for you.
Oh, you are like a flower
growing  upon the green fields of heaven
by the throne of God.
Oh, I know my heart will ever be yours
till time winds its way
through the halls of eternity
and the stars all burn away
and creation stands naked
before the heart of God.
