*hope*

Worry and sadness, compassion and fear!
What on this earth is happening here?
With aching hearts and eyes full of tears,
We wonder about the rest of the years?
We truly rely on faith on its own,
And wonder why this tragedy made itself known?
We'll find our faith in the Savior dear,
And discover the reasons he has sent us here.
Our Savior came and gave his life,
presented the gift to carry our strife's.
We plead on our knees to our Father
above,
that no matter what, we will feel his great love.
The family bond is eternally bound,
as we've all come together that power's profound.
Now is the time to pray she will cope,
and trust in the Lord for a glimmer of hope!
