A country loved that stands so proud
steeped within my very soul.
A heart that sings with beauty's song,
God's grace comes and makes me whole.
Feel the power as faith takes hold,
reach beyond the edge of time.
Hidden truths of life's mystery,
feel so grandiose and sublime.
Yearning for happiness life brings,
give my heart to those souls in need.
A great land of oppurtunity,
traquil heart help others succeed.
Earthly powers of strength and love,
all within me bursts out in tune.
God rains down His grace from above,
to the Earth past the stars and moon.

Long time no see Sandy!
I'm walking again! The physical therapy paid off! I clicked to see what you've been up to and found this beautiful little poem.
"A country loved that stands so proud
steeped within my very soul"
The youth of my country should read you. This sounds so patriotic. As a young nation, my countrymen are not as patriotic as they should be.
"God rains down His grace from above" ... He is never far from your heart and thoughts. Lovely. Don't ever lose your faith.
Marissa.
