COULD MY HEART SING AGAIN? 
by Norman Fikes
 

I found it frustrating to think 
after all I had gone through,
Those evil things that happened, 
Satan was allowed to do.

We had dedicated our lives to God, 
I thought He held my hand,
Seems he had put me down, 
I just did not understand.

Oh the unbearable pain 
that struck my soul within,
Tearing away at my faith 
and my patience wearing thin.

Seems God had ripped my heart out 
stomping me in blood,
Then He left me laying there 
drowning in the flood, 

My whole world destroyed 
and my dreams in disdain, 
How could I live on, 
how could I bear the pain.

Could I forgive the killer 
that took my children away,
I wanted to hate him, 
and be glad he died that day.

Who are you, how do you know 
just where I'm coming from?
I lost the man that loved me, 
now my life was done!

But then my God came through 
with healing in his wings,
He brushed aside my tears, 
again my heart does sing.

I'll see my children someday 
upon that other shore,
And celebrate a family reunion 
where we part no more.
