WHEN ALL ELSE FADES

The sun outside is burning. Like it has been for the last few days. The temperature must be soaring. Someone close-by is burning wastes. I can smell it. A furlong away, thousands have gathered at the public ground for a rally. Two of my daughters are in the rally. Two of them are in school. Still too young for a rally. Elsewhere, people are busy with their own works, unmindful of the happenings around.

And here, all alone, as I sit to put words to my thoughts, things seem to be coming in a flashback. My life, my family, everything else....

So beautiful, so wonderful....

And in silent gratitude, as I offer words of praise, this song comes to my mind. It is very much my prayer as much as it is yours...
 
From the Inside Out

A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
my heart and my soul, Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside out Lord
Let justice and praise become my embrace
To love You from the inside out

Your will above all else, my purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul, Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside out Lord
Let justice and praise become my embrace
To love You from the inside out

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring You praise
From the inside out Lord, my soul cries out.
