River of Time by Janet Martin © 2009 I can hardly believe it as I stand by its side Gazing into life's river and its merciless tide, Caught in its current are the sweet yester-years Fleeting treasures midst laughter and tears I can hardly believe it as I pause by its side, Whilst still precious hours so soundlessly glide, They slip to its depths to return never-more Though I may stand begging and pleading on shore I can hardly believe it as I weep by its side, But my tears like all days are swept up in its tide, I see sorrow and blessing slip from my grasp As life's river claims them, their memories I clasp Yet I have a comfort as I stand by its side, For someday twill be I who is caught in that tide, And I'll cross those waters where forever I'll be In Heaven with Jesus for eternity |
