SHIRLEY, YOU ARE NEVER ALONE


              

Our lives at times become troubled,
     Which leads us often to say,
     "I wonder why this had to be,
     And why it happened to me?".

God's blessings comes in many ways,
     Often hard for you and I to see,
     But everything that happens in life,
     God has allowed it to be.

God never wants us to walk alone,
     And stands ready to be at our side,
     As we journey a sometimes narrow road,
     That will someday lead us home.

When we get there our eyes will be open,
     To the mysteries that once use to be,
     We will then understand "why this had to be,
     And why it happened to me."

Just remember our prayers are with you,
     To help lift and strengthen you today,
     Call on those of us who love you,
     And let us share with you along the way.
