The Simple Things

Sometimes, it's the simple things
that cause my heart to soar.
Like the scent of the one I love,
to catch me off guard.
Sometimes, it's the simple things
that make life what it is
As I lose myself in tomorrow's dream
and hope for what's to come.
Sometimes, it's the simple things
as she reaches for my hand
to let me know that she is here
and wants me here the same.
Sometimes, it's these simple things
I look forward to the most
and wonder how I made it here
without them all before.

Psalm 23 - a psalm of Billy

The Lord is my creator, I am perfect in his sight.
He holds me in the palm of his hand,
He carries me where ever I go,
He is my companion.
He has formed every hair on my head for his glory.
Even though sickness and pain may come my way,
I will not fear death,
For you are with me;
Your pen and your ruler,
They have measured me.
You reveal your plans and hopes for me even when I do not understand.
Your blessings pour out upon me;
I cannot comprehend your love.
Surely order and harmony will be reflected in my life,
As others see the beauty of your creation in me.
