One day it so happened..

One day it so happened ...

I was alone and watching outside my window

I felt the calmness in the air, I felt the stillness in my breath

I asked for a drizzle, and it poured and poured..

Until I could wipe it any more..

One day it so happened ...

I was with you, I was in you

I felt the strength, I felt oneness

A touch I needed, a hand I held

And love showered and showered on me..

Until I could cry for any more..

One day it so happened ...

I needed a reason, I had many questions

I felt distress, I was helpless

I asked for a light, and it glazed and glazed..

Until I could see any longer, any further..

 

One day it so happened ...

There was misery all over, there was so much grief

I asked for a shelter, I asked for relief

I asked for some white to cover the black, everywhere

And it snowed and snowed, and covered it all.. 

Until I could see no black anywhere..

One day when it all happened,

I was in myself, I was in Yourself

I was here with me, I was here with Thee

And it came all over to me again..

For now I know it was in reach, every time I thought I lost

For now I know I have that white, no matter how black is the thought

For now I know I need to ask, and believe the asked, it will be brought..
