                                                                            ALONG THE BEACH


                                        As we walk a long the beach of life 
                                        And see the myriad grains of sand
                                        That query of old returns to mind
                                        What is man, O 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 runs 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
