Long Beach Serenade
by Richard Lawry
Before the sun begins the day
I walk where moonlight washes away
Silver whispers on the sand
As waves roll in I understand
Each breath of tide that comes before
A fleeting mirror then no more
But still it comes again, again
Like mercy rolling in
Miles of beach
No one but me
A world filled
With quiet peace
The silent road
Of sand and sea
Where freedom feels
Like destiny
When the light feels far away
And I'm standing on the edge of gray
I'll lift my eyes, I'll comprehend
There's strength rising deep within
Then out of nowhere, silently
A shadow keeps me company
Golden wings tt my right side
Grace in a gentle glide
Seven feet of fearless flight
Majestic in the morning light
The eagle flies, not fighting hard
Lets the currents lead undeterred
Those who trust the Lord
will find their strength restored
They will soar like eagles on the wind
A normal life transcend
The eagle won't rush, he will not strain
He trusts the unseen breath again
A subtle move, a lifted wing
And miles are crossed without tiring
The eagle climbs, the sky grows wide
And slowly fades from human sight
He lifts his eyes, he trusts the wind
He soars on with his unseen friend
Miles of beach
No one but me
A world filled
With quiet peace
The silent road
Of sand and sea
Where freedom feels
Like destiny
Those who trust the Lord
will find their strength restored
They will soar like eagles on the wind
A normal life transcend
They trust the unseen breath again
Those who trust the Lord
will find their strength restored
They will soar like eagles on the wind
A normal life transcend
Those who trust the Lord
will find their strength restored
They will soar like eagles on the wind
A normal life transcend
