Because of you,
through the Grace of God,

I have felt
the security of His embrace.

I have
heard the cry of angels on my behalf.

I have seen
the comforting eyes of Christ.

I have seen
the welcoming smile on His face.



Because
of you, through the Power of God,

I feel the
cooling raindrops on my face.

I feel the
warmth in the ray of hope.

I feel the
love that knows no boundaries.

I feel each
breath and recognize its strength.



Because
of you, through the Love of God,

I know the
power that accompanies a prayer said on my behalf.

I know the
grace and sacrifice given me from my divine siblings.

I know that
each breath, touch, heartbeat, and tear is in perfect time with the heavenly
Conductor.



Because
of you, through Hope in God,

I will
continue to fight – but realize the battle is His.

I will
remain steadfast in His Word.

I will
overcome and we will all cry TRIUMPH!
