Crisp clean sheets
Caress aching mind –
Comforts me
Church bells in the city
Ring out so clear
Sounding out loud
Declaring to all the world
That Friday night
Upon us, is here
As sure as the sun will rise
Days will turn to night
Until we are faced
With the comfort and grace
Of church bells chiming
In the city, once more
You were love
You gave love
You were joy
You gave joy
You were peace
You gave peace
Earthly life complete
Testimony standing sure
No hurt, no pain
Will you ever have to endure
If this be my only comfort
Allow it be my anchor
For all eternity
At the moment I felt pain
You walked past my way
In the briefest of time
Your eyes met with mine
And I felt then, that you
Took the pain away
Last night in my dreams
You comforted me again

There is always a
Reason to smile, even if
Only for a while
At times when I am in a rush
I find myself in a bakery
Just around the corner
From where my home would be
I grab a coffee to help me out
And if luck be on my side
Behind glass counter gloriously
There’s a pie to feed the family
Well, I am ashamed I must admit
For any pie – when I was but a child –
Would have been prepared so lovingly
By grandma who rolled the dough with care
The scent of pie
Would fill the air
We would wait quite anxiously
For mere taste of pie smelling savory
Times have changed
And time’s decreased
So to take me back
To my inner youth
There is nothing like
A pie from the bakery
With mashed potato on the top
Baked in oven until golden brown
So nowadays
When I am short of time
The scent of pie from the bakery
Fills my kitchen, and comforts me!
