He'd give me the Sunshine..A Poem by Juanita JohnWhat is this feeling that I feel this morn As the sunbeams dance on my eyelids The same ones that cried all dusk From where comes this soothing calm.. And He said, welcome to the sunshine, doesn't mean there ain't gonna be no rain welcome to the sunshine coz behind every rainbow there is a story of pain If it wasn't for the endless toil I'd never have known Your love If it wasn't for the thorny paths I'd never have developed the callus If it wasn't for the loneliness I'd never have found Your companionship So for all that that happened I can only sing You a song that I can And He said, welcome to the sunshine, doesn't mean there ain't gonna be no rain welcome to the sunshine coz behind every rainbow there is a story of pain Let me not doubt the tables set for me Let me not be relentless of the past only by Your strength I can let go else I'll clutch on to it like harbor though the pain and tears are very real let me know that Your joy is just as much Sometimes joy feels alien Feels like I've never felt it Sometimes joy feels distant Feels like its not meant for me But He said, welcome to the sunshine, doesn't mean there ain't gonna be no rain welcome to the sunshine coz behind every rainbow there is a story of pain So Let me wait on You To guide me on the paths; thorny or green So let me just let You To mould me the way You want to And I'd sing, thank you for the sunshine doesn't mean I'd never want no rain Thank you for the sunshine coz behind every rainbow there is a story of pain © 2015 Juanita John |
