Array ( [sid] => 9964 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => Fade Away [time] => 2003-01-08 04:20:00 [hometext] => Sometimes we all need someone to help us in this life. Friends and family are the greastest blessings I have found other than Christ. [bodytext] => The fate of so many hearts
Weigh heavily upon me today
And as I try to carry them all
Hope seems so far away

Each step gets harder now
As I pursue the light
Quickly darkness overtakes me
I fear soon it will be the night

I dare not falter
I dare not stop to rest
For all are hearts I love
Their fears I must arrest

I cannot find a resting place
For no refuge do I see
No place of warmth and comfort
Waiting to strengthen me

Tho hope is fading
And relief is out of view
I will persevere my hearts
I will not abandon you

So with renewed determination
And the prayers I pray
I ignore the despair of darkness
For the hope of day

One step at a time I take
On legs so unsteady
Until the journey is complete
And your hearts are ready

To bask in the light of love
The hope of a new day
Standing on your own
Then I shall fade away

Russ

Fade Away

The fate of so many hearts
Weigh heavily upon me today
And as I try to carry them all
Hope seems so far away

Each step gets harder now

I dare not stop to rest
For all are hearts I love
Their fears I must arrest

I cannot find a resting place
For no refuge do I see
No place of warmth and comfort

One step at a time I take
On legs so unsteady
Until the journey is complete
And your hearts are ready

To bask in the light of love
The hope of a new day
Standing on your own
Then I shall fade away
