ALONG THE BEACH

                                                ALONG THE BEACH


                                        As we walk along the beach of life
                                        And see myriad grains of sand
                                        That query of old comes to mind
                                        What is man, oh Lord, what is man

                                        Are we like a hapless starfish
                                        Just tossed upon the shore
                                        Our fate determined by a whim
                                        Or, is there something more

                                        Before our tide goes out, O Lord
                                        Before our days are spent
                                        Help us see we're here by choice
                                        That we've been heaven sent
                         
                                         Come ashore and show us, Lord
                                         Just what we're meant to be
                                         Teach us of a kinship rare
                                         Of our relationship to thee
             
                                          As we place our sinking footsteps
                                          In the soft, soft sands of time
                                          Teach us of thy graciousness
                                          And of thy love sublime
