In This Life...

There is a song that has been playing in my head for a few days. It is a older country song that has long since been forgotten from the radio. I remember hearing it back when it was popular and I always thought it was talking of a a love that was lost... but the more I sing it the more I listen to the words the more to me it is about loving God and always reaching and knowing that in this life I was loved by Him. Below are the lyrics.

For all I've been blessed with in this life

There was an emptiness in me

I was imprisoned by the power of gold

But one honest touch could set me free

Let the world stop turnin'

Let the sun stop burnin'

Let them tell me love's not worth going through

If it all falls apart

I will know deep in my heart

The only dream that mattered had come true

In this life, I was loved by You

For every mountain I have climbed

Every raging river crossed

You were the treasure I was sure to find

Without Your love I would be lost
