Oh if I could take you by the hand
I'd walk you through this precious land
To show you that life is not so bad
To make you smile, be free and feel glad
For it is with our friendship lies the great reward
The calmness of the boat that's gently moored
We rock, we sway but never broken
Our foundation solid, I extend this token
Please don't fail to see the gift in things
That the angels on their wings do bring
The sun rising in a clear blue sky
A warm smile from a stranger who passes by
The birds singing sweetly in a large oak tree
Take a deep breath, knowing you are free
The beautiful silence on a mountain top
The mesmerising calmness of a ticking clock
A privilege to watch a flower bloom
The wonder of seeing the glistening moon
The unconditional love of a child so sweet
Who sits and listens at your feet
To tales and magic of a far away place
You brought that smile to their innocent face
Remember the child deep within you
Who needs to be nurtured, loved and feel new
So let me take you by the hand
One thing is certain, your path is never planned
