I Often Wonder 

I OFTEN WONDER parish lifeI often wonder what I’d do if I could never pray.

If I could not depend on God to guide me every day.

And O how dark the night would be. If His light did not shine,

I could not sleep, because such fear would fill this heart of mine.

My heart would never sing a song. I’d feel so all alone,

If I could never talk to God, and claim Him for my own.

But all these things I need not fear, my burdens He will share,

I only have to whisper low, He hears my every prayer.

He always walks beside me, He never lets me fall,

He gently takes me by the hand, my Love, the God of all.

And though the night around be dark, His light will always shine,

I sleep in peace and need not fear, I know that He is mine.
