POSTCARDS FROM THE HEART
Father, you are older than me / And in many
ways you are wise / But all of my life it's
hurt to see / The sadness that's in your eyes /
And I know that your life has been hard / And
you struggle to do your best / Now I want you
to share the love I've found / And give your poor
heart a rest
And He'll draw close to you / If you'd only ask
Him to / He would understand your heart's most
secret prayer / And He's waiting there
And mother, I could never forget / Your laughter
and your worried tears / And all of the loving
things you did / To help me through those painful
years / And I know when you've given your heart /
Life has often been unkind / But turning away you
just might miss / The love you've waited years to
find
And He'll draw close to you / If you'd only ask
Him to / Let Him was away the bitterness and fear /
You'll see He's here
.......
Dear brother, I remember the days / I'd tag along
to play / And all of the childish angry things /
We never really meant to say / And I know that
those boys have grown up / And we'll never play
those games again / And that's why I hope you'll
understand / And listen to me as a friend
And He'll draw close to you / If you'd only ask
Him to / Let Him have the chance to show what
love can do / It's there for you / It's there for
you / It's there for you
