In some odd way I think I like the fact that the destination stays just out of reach, it keeps me moving forward rather than standing still and not searching anymore – but I admit it’s nice to sometimes hear the heartbeat of love slightly pounding – the echo of the eternal.
‘The wind is blowing down the silent river,a shining road that leaves me all alone.A life for you’s worth losing you forever.Some day we’ll stand in God’s fair land, forever home.
I wish that life wasn’t always ending up this way,with Heaven’s love at stake and hell to pay.But you in God’s loving plan might be the missing part.You must live.So I give you to his heart.’
