Footprints In The Sand
I walked the beach alone once, And felt someone near. I turned to see who was there, But instead saw an oddity so very clear.
I do not think my eyes decieved me, But saw why I felt someone near, There in the sand behind me, Lay two sets of footprints so dear.
My heart and I know many things, But for a moment I could not see. Then I realized with amazement, My Love was wandering with me.
I then felt a warmness in hand, For Carol had lovenly taken my hand. We wandered for hours on the beach, Her laughter bringing joy so grand.
This is a memory that will never fade, Two sets of footprints in the sand. I know that I am not alone, Because she left footprints in heart as grand.
Although God took her to his domain, And to a quiet peaceful place. She will always, no matter where, Leave footprints to grace.
