To have you as a good friend,
Life is easier to live.
Your heart is one of sunshine,
That to me you always give.

The sunshine that you bring me,
I always find so profuse.
The good things you are blessed with,
You always put to good use.

Having you as a good friend,
Life is easier to live.
Your heart shines brighter than lamps,          
And brilliant light it does give.

Your heart is understanding.
By me you're thought highly of.
Your heart is one that's caring,
And more gentle than a dove.

Your smiles sure are outstanding.
They're lit by your heart of care.
Mary Anne you are that gal,
Who has a heart very rare.

When I need a friend, you're there.
Your friendship I highly prize.
You give me your good advice
That I find helpful and wise.

Sweet Mary Anne
Much sweeter than hyacinths,
Is the heart of Mary Ann.
Smiling, she sure is good at,
Of her smiles I'm a big fan.

The Double Delight roses,
her sweetness, they cannot beat.
her friendship I sure treasure,
Her I sure do like to meet.

The sweetness of bees' honey,
the bears are sure in search of,
I'll search for something better,
Her heart that's so full of love.

I find her heart a rare find.
It is one that's always kind.

A Natural Escape
From monotonies of life,
An escape at times we need;
An escape at Shaw's Garden,
Will be of much help indeed.

A visit in the springtime,
When flowering trees there bloom,
Capture the eyes and calm them,
Many release sweet perfume.

Folks sure find Shaw's Garden is
A real lovely place to be.
It's a great place for a stroll,
To enjoy nature's beauty.

Bonfire
We came here on a hayride,
To have a campfire and fun;
We will have sung many songs,
Before evening is done.

For starting a good bonfire,
Cedar kindling works real well.
When it is in a bonfire,
Silence it sure can dispel.

Over fire we cooked hot dogs,
And also big marshmallows;
Colored ones for this bonfire,
Are the marshmallows we chose.

After we will douse each flame,
To the hay wagon we'll aim.

Dear Lord, give me the wisdom,
That is needed to be wise.
Virtues I need to live by,
Don't let sin come to disguise.

Lord, help my heart be caring,
Also help my heart be kind.
The joys that are camouflaged,
In clear sight, them, help me find.

Loving, help my heart to be,
Help me know how I should live,
At times when I'm weak in life,
Give me the strength to forgive.

Understanding help me be,
Lord, give my heart sturdiness.
Help me, Lord, always strive for,
Holiness and gentleness.

Blessed Mother, We Need You
We need your motherly love,
Dear Blessed Mother Mary;
At times when we need your help,
Please respond without tarry.

We ask you, Mother, to be,
Of help in doing God's will.
Speak for us on our behalf,
So peace in our hearts He'll fill.

Be with us Blessed Mother,
Heaven help us search and find;
Like you when you were on earth,
Help us Mother to be kind.

Help us be obedient,
To God draw us closer near;
For lives full of holiness,
Help us always persevere.

When we find life burdensome,
Help us not give up on life.
Help us to be courageous,
When we find life full of strife.
Lord, bestow your grace on me,
When my life with strife I find;
Help me to love my neighbors,                
And help me find peace of mind.

Lord, help me to avoid sin,
So I'm able to be free;
The good that is in others,
Help me be able to see.

At times when I'm insulted,  
Help me then respond with care;
Life's crosses I encounter,
Dear Lord, them, help me to bear.

Lord, bestow your peace on me,
So I can live happily.

And real difficult to beat.          

If by chance stars in heaven,
Would somehow come to go out,
With the brightness of your smiles,
You'd ignite them there's no doubt.

I thank the good Lord above,
For He helped me to meet you;
Because you are in the world,
Life's joys I find are not few.

Gold that's from your every smile,
Makes its way upon the sand,
Where then it does start to pile.
