Penned 9-5-1993

Lord, I found a quiet place today, away from all the world,

None other sounds of praise I hear than the wind, and a goose giving a gurgle.

 

I thank You, Lord, for Your love this day, so sweet You are to me,

A love embrace You are near to my heart, a love that forever will be.

 

I see a yellow butterfly dancing around Your flowers divine, a leaf falls at my side,

Your wind blows on my face and hair, Your presence can not be denied.

 

Fall is in the air again, another year almost ended,

Time goes by so quickly, Lord, help me be obedient!

 

Here we are alone again, all is still and quiet,

You are my protector,  my friend, and forever will be my diet.

 

As I partake of Your word, and eat the bread You have set before me this day,

Teach me while I am here, O Lord, so still and quieted away.

 

Away with You! Away with You! I am away with You!

Away with You! Away with You! A love ever so dear and true!
