If it Comes to Pass by Dawn Pisturino

If it Comes to Pass by Dawn Pisturino

If it comes to pass
That I never see you again,
Take my heart,
Overflowing with love,
To nourish you on your wandering quest.
Take these hands,
Powerful and strong,
To lift you up when the winds blow rough.
Take these feet,
Sturdy and sure,
To guide you on your way
Along the treacherous trail.
Take my thoughts,
Steady and pure,
To caress you in the night
With gentle reassurance.
Take my prayers,
Burning with the fire of faith,
To keep you safe from harm
And lead you along the path
Of righteousness.
