'Reaching Out'

'Reaching Out'

I look into your eyes

And see the sadness of your heart

You no longer smile at me

Or twinkle those blue eyes.

I called to you, "Come be with me"

And you turned away.

Why did you let your sadness 

turn you from me, on that day?

I want you back, my faithful one

I cannot bear your soul to lose

Come quickly now and take my hand

You are my servant true

And, I, from heavens vast domain,

Need you.
