where have all the smiles gone
the spirit in triumph
love in its full expression
visions of change
heart, soul, mind in accord
a smile, a smile, newly known
a loving song
a spirited dance
a kind word
a lyrical poem
a smile, a smile, newly known
a rescue
a warm embrace
a helping hand
a listening ear
a smile, a smile, newly known
beyond oppression and dismay
is the blessed path of THE WAY
beyond control and evil greed
is the grace of GOD and love's creed
beyond dark shadows and fear
is the resounding call of TRUTH and forbearance dear
to honor all LIFE and live the glory of our days
revelation in its prevailing call and PRAISE
RISE RISE be it known, be it heard
Revelation ~ Inspiration ~ Spirit ~ Eternal ... within the WORD.
