He shall put his light in every storm,
That breaks upon thy way,
And make the darkness bright with form,
And gild the clouds with day.

He shall put his peace in every pain,
That brings thy heart distress,
And make the sorrow bright with gain,
And gild the darkness bless.

He shall put his strength in every fear,
That shakes thy soul with dread,
And make the weakness strong with cheer,
And gild the shadows red.

He shall put his love in every heart,
That feels the touch of care,
And make the darkness bright with art,
And gild the clouds with prayer.

He shall put his joy in every life,
That feels the touch of pain,
And make the darkness bright with strife,
And gild the clouds again.
Thus
To every part of this sweet earth
Spread His mercy and love
And
Be glad in it

hey, everybody, this is old Billy Bob, here
over there in those cute Billy Jeans
well, I just woke up this morning
and looked up toward the sky-blue mirror
meanwhile, down the road,
I see an image of an old gray-haired Billy goat
just chewing on some maple oats and hay
looked like he was chewing on some cherry tobacco
I got a little bit closer for inspection and
watch Mr. Goat spite some cherry tobacco in a tin can
and right about then, I was kicked in the rear end
while some people would say - I was kicked in the tailpipe.
Unfortunately, I was kicked by some crazy *******
down yonder, from Tupelo, county, Mississippi
you know what
I should've never looked
at myself in that ****
crazy *** sky mirror this morning
you know what - chicken ****
hey, I just got hog-******* again
Dag Nabit...shucks!
give everybody a big hug
thank you...very much!

When the jealous mirror has eyes,
Reflections become more than guise,
It gazes deep into the soul's abyss,
Unmasking the truth, a tale amiss.

Its eyes, like sapphires, cold and bright,
Expose the layers hidden from sight,
In its silver depths, secrets reside,
As the jealous mirror becomes our guide.

It reflects the doubts that silently creep in,
And the scars that within us keep,
With every glance, it seeks to unveil,
The stories that our faces might entail.

When the jealous mirror has eyes that see,
It perceives beyond the surface, wild and free,
It reveals the hopes that ignite the heart,
And the fears that tear our dreams apart.

With honesty's touch, it shows what's true,
The battles we fight, the skies so blue,
The jealous mirror, a friend and foe,
It mirrors our journey, highs and lows.

When the jealous mirror has eyes that gleam,
It captures more than what might seem,
In its gaze, we confront what's real,
As it reflects the emotions that we conceal.

So let the jealous mirror bear witness with grace,
To the myriad expressions on life's face,
In its eyes, find a mirror of the soul,
Reflecting the fragments that make us whole.

The rose unto itself that I know.
Is a thing of beauty and grace,
With petals as soft as a dove
And a scent that is like a dream.

The rose unto itself that I know
Is a thing of mystery and wonder,
With thorns that can cut and sting
But also protect its heart.

The rose unto itself that I know
Is a thing of strength and resilience,
With roots that can reach deep into the earth
And a will to survive.

The rose unto itself that I know
Is a thing of love and hope,
With a smile that can light up a room
And a heart that is full of joy.

The rose unto itself that I know
Is a thing of magic and wonder,
A gift from the gods above
To remind us of the beauty of life.

So let us all be like the rose,
Beautiful and strong and resilient,
With a heart full of love and hope.

Let us let our light shine bright,
And let our beauty be a beacon of hope
To those who are lost and afraid.

Let us be the rose unto ourselves,
And let us make the world a more beautiful place.

The sunlight is back in her eyes
Like the first day of spring,
And the world seems a brighter place
When she's near.

Her smile is like a warm summer breeze,
And her laugh is like a melody,
And I can't help but smile when I see her
Because she makes me happy.

She's the light of my life,
And I'm so grateful to have her in my world,
And I know that I'll never be the same
Without her sweet sunlight in her eyes.

I love the way she looks at me,
With those big, brown eyes,
And I can see the love in her eyes,
And it makes me feel so alive.

I love the way she makes me feel,
Like I can do anything,
And I know that I can always count on her,
To be there for me, no matter what.

She's my best friend,
My lover,
And my soulmate,
And I can't imagine my life without her,
And I'm so grateful that she's in my life.

I love her more than words can say,
And I know that I'll love her forever,
And I can't wait to see what the future holds for us,
With her sweet sunlight in her eyes.

Thy faith shall leap from the highest cliff,
And soar to thestars above.
It shall not be afraid of the fall,
For it knows that it will be caught.

Thy faith shall be like a bird in flight,
Free to soar and to sing.
It shall not be bound by the earth,
For it knows that it belongs to the sky.

Thy faith shall be like a flame in the night,
Bright and shining and true.
It shall not be extinguished by the storm,
For it knows that it is eternal.

So let thy faith be strong and free,
And let it soar to the highest heights.
It shall not be afraid,
For it knows that it is loved.

Your name is written in the clouds,
I can see it with my eyes.
It's a beautiful sight to behold,
It's a gift from the skies.

Your name is written in the stars,
I can see it shining bright.
It's a reminder that you're here,
And that you're always in my sight.

Your name is written in my heart,
It's a permanent mark.
It's a reminder of our love,
And of the bond we share.

Your name is written in my soul,
It's a part of me now.
It's a reminder of who I am,
And of what I'm made of.
