Ancient Ghosts 2: The Long Road Home

The companionship of a loving spouse on the journey of life

is one of the greatest gifts one can have in life.

I am honoured to have that in my husband,

Joe Grenier.

"THE LONG ROAD HOME"

When I came into this world naked and alone

I came to live with loving hearts and to a loving home.

Yet always deep inside myself I feel so all alone

Though I am loved and cared about while on this long road home.

I'm so very lonely and so very much alone

And so very frightened of the long road home.

For I've been hurt by travelers and then left all alone

Calling out for God to guide me on this long road home.

In God's mercy I have found that I am not alone

And as my scars heal I continue on this long road home

Our loving God has crossed our paths when I felt most alone,

And you, my good Samaritan, make safe this long road home.

So touch me gently, let me know that I am not alone

And that you'll walk with me a while on this long road home

For I would wither up and die if I walked alone,

But with you walking by my side I know I'll make it home.

And if you rush along the way and I am left alone

I'll hold dearly to these days as I continue home

And I will follow after you and know I'm not alone

For you'll be always by my side on this long road home.

And when we both reach this road's end we'll never be alone

though we'll remember every step we took on this road home,

the rocky way, the crooked path, and feeling so alone.

It will have been your love, my dear, that eased this long road home.
