<\/p>\n
A New Outlook On Life<\/p>\n
I saw the beginning of the rain.<\/p>\n
Rivulets of rain running down my window pane.<\/p>\n
Nothing is worse than this pain in my heart.<\/p>\n
Ever since we have been apart.<\/p>\n
My precious love has gone from me.<\/p>\n
Left me here in misery.<\/p>\n
Guess I will close the door to my heart.<\/p>\n
Keep it all inside me, in the dark.<\/p>\n
I cannot be hurt like this again.<\/p>\n
The suffering is too great to even begin.<\/p>\n
All alone with no one to see<\/p>\n
just how miserable can I be?<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
But wait, here\u2019s a shoulder to lay my head.<\/p>\n
Gently holding me as I lay here on the bed.<\/p>\n
You have always been there through good and bad.<\/p>\n
To give me hope when I am sad.<\/p>\n
You never anger. You\u2019re just supporting.<\/p>\n
No matter who it is I\u2019m courting.<\/p>\n
Why? Why would you treat me this way?<\/p>\n
Then it hit me. \u201cYou love me, \u201c was all I could say.<\/p>\n
As I lay there and thought it through,<\/p>\n
you are the only one for me too.<\/p>\n
\u201cI think I love you,\u201d I said with affirmation.<\/p>\n
His smile was my conformation.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
From then on it was Jesus and I.<\/p>\n
There may be others by and by.<\/p>\n
But, always with Jesus in our mist.<\/p>\n
There is no greater thing than this.<\/p>\n
You and me and Jesus makes three.<\/p>\n
Now that\u2019s what I call a real family.<\/p>\n
Why not come along for the ride.<\/p>\n
Start walking with Jesus by your side.<\/p>\n
With Jesus added to the equation,<\/p>\n
your life is in for a new sensation.<\/p>\n
On top of the world looking down on creation.<\/p>\n
Just you, Jesus, and your friends and relations.<\/p>\n
