Wait Dear Time

I thought I'd take out some time for you

Rest my head on your shoulder and share memories few

Little I realized how fast time flies

I now stand at the threshold to bid a final goodbye

Wait dear time, please slow down your pace

I have dear ones to hug, I have friends to embrace

I have thanks to say and my wrongs to regret

Imbibe the beauty of sunrise , before my final sunset

I have hands to shake and kisses to give

I have to ask folks to remember to forget and forgive

I have to race against you dear time and hymns and prayers to raise

Thank God for HIS mercy and for HIS everlasting grace.
