Afterglow
23rd Psalm
The Lord is my shepherd;
I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down
in green pastures;
He leadeth me beside still waters.
He restoreth my soul;
He leadeth me in the paths of
righteousness
for His name's sake.
Yea though I walk through the valley
of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil;
for thou art with me.
Thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me
in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou anointest my head with oil;
My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy
shall follow
Me all the days of my life
and I will dwell in the house
of the Lord forever.
Amen.
I'd like the memory of me,
To be a happy one,
I'd like to leave an afterglow
Of smiles when the day is done.
I'd like to leave an echo
Whispering softly down the ways,
Of happy times and laughing times,
And bright and sunny days.
I'd like the tears of those who grieve
To dry before the sun,
Of happy memories that I leave behind,
When the day is done.
