Eventually, hope springs forth…..
Refuge

Sometimes I catch myself
wondering where I’d be
if I turned a different path
and followed that star
but I know in my heart I’ve made my best choices
just look where it’s gotten me so far
So I see all around me – a beautiful forest
with a stand of trees so tall and wonderfully green
Here is my fortress, and here stand my friends
with our dreams and our love of life to light our lives 		Sometimes when I look back It seems like a nightmare
with a few brief wonderful parts thrown in between
I keep tellin’ it wasn’t all that bad
and I should think of the good life I have, the good life I have
and I’m still on that long road – life’s true reward
and I know when I’ll reach home, ‘cause I’ll end that run
but for now here’s my refuge, the best I could get
but I know things will get better yet so I’ll give my best
