People often say, “Out of sight, out of mind”,
And “Trust no shadow after dark”;
Well, does absence really “make the heart grow fonder”?
After all, who is to be trusted with one’s heart
Filled with deep secrets, desires and dear hopes, all
Waiting to be shared? And yet, how can one dare
To venture out on such an odyssey as LIFE, alone…
With all its turmoil, fears and cares?
Oh, I know One who has the answer to all of your questions!
He’ll walk through life beside you, to guide and keep you all the way,
Give you pure desires and make them come true, too.
You can trust HIM with your heart and life – both night and day.
He’ll never leave you alone; and even if you walk away,
You’ll never be put of HIS sight – you’re always on HIS mind.
Now, if you find this hard to believe, I will understand,
For it’s incredible, alright. I tell you, this Friend is ‘out-a-sight!
Oh, He’s out-a-sight, but ever within your reach;
Out-a-sight, but you’re always on HIS mind.
God’s love attends you every day,
His presence guides you all the way.
So we’re never “out-a-sight”, and never “out of mind”
But HIS love is “OUT-A-SIGHT”!
