I Close My Eyes
As I lay down
To rest my head,
I feel so tired -
I close my eyes.
It's you I see.
Your arms I feel.
Your words I hear...
My mind's at rest.
My heart's content.
My soul's at peace...
I shed one tear;
Then another flows.
I am so thankful...
Then, suddenly,
I think of a friend
Who's not at peace...
I shed a tear
Yet, a river flows.
Hope is alive -
I close my eyes.
