Tomorrow

Give to me tomorrow
with all it has to yield
the expected
the unexpected
the joy, the pain, the grief
the clouds, the rain
the sun that bakes the prairie field

Give to me the mystery
that comes with dawn at daybreak
the challenges
the aches, the pain
the disappointments
the sighs that sound relief
the love that causes heartache

The future is uncertain --
shall I, another day survive?
Eternity
my place in heaven
where all my dreams come true
will come so soon --
I now rejoice, for I'm alive!
