Time for You
©2011 Gibbens/Weston

I’ll come to you tomorrow;
I’ll comfort you today.
You bear the weight, your weight of sorrow.
I won’t be long
Away.
Through all the hours of darkness,
Through all the hours of night,
You feel alone, alone in harness.
There is an end
In sight.

There is a turning in this long road,
There is a time to be.
For all your yearning, your heavy load,
There is a time for you.
There is a time for you.

You wonder will you make it;
You wonder what it’s worth.
One day the truth will catch us naked,
As at the hour
Of birth.
Our glories are stripped from us;
They go from dust to dust.
I’m hanging on, on to a promise.
What more is there
To trust?

There is a turning in this long road…

Sometimes you can’t be certain,
Sometimes you’re good and sure.
That poison dart is in there hurtin’.
God knows that time’s
No cure.
Days passing over heaven,
Night follows after dusk.
Your path is dark, steep and uneven.
Still you go where
You must.

There is a turning in this long road…
