yesterday

Surrounding me the color hues

Of reds and yellows and background blues

Reminding me that sometime soon

The days the years they vanish too


One by one the leaves fall down

Like broken dreams forgotten now

While busy people trample by

Rushing on with empty frowns


Along the way beneath the clouds

With head held high a lonely swan

In stately splendor floats on by

Unaware of furrowed brows


Oh days of yonder days gone by

When all that filled my idle times

Were hopes and dreams yet still to come

Now fading ‘neath the growing piles

Holy Spirit have your way
in my life come what may
ears to listen tis my prayer
a heart that's willing to obey

take my worries toil and care
give me joy and peace today
make me soft and broken too
quick to listen love and do

where there's anger bring your peace
where there's fear be still near
when i'm wronged help me be still
when i'm tried i'll wait on you

come Holy Spirit come
in this moment through the day
take control have your way
settle o'er me always
