The Face in My Life
Each day is a different color
In the painting of our lives
Every minute is another block
In eternity's quilt of life
Every action we make
Puts another brush stroke on the canvas
Each word we say
Is another stitch in the great design
At the end of my life
The face in my painting
The pattern in my quilt
The face I hope to see
The face of my Father
Up in Heaven smiling down
