Like the cold mist which tingles my skin at dawn,
Your presence ignites my soul.
Like the fragrance of a flower is a beacon to the bee,
Your presence sheds light on my way.

Cloudy skies in my life, hills of sorrow and pain,
Even valleys of fear and despair,
Cannot touch me or hurt me or shake me, disturb me,
And it's all just because you are here.

The earth and her beauty is oh so majestic,
A host of inspiring sights,
Which brings joy and peace to a life full of care,
Lifts the spirit to incredible heights,
Yet the joy that you bring is so great, indescribable,
Makes my heart soar up high on its wings.

I want to shout and exclaim at the top of my voice,
I want all the world over to hear.
That without you I am nothing, dry grass in the wind
No life-force, no ambition, desire,
But your presence makes me stand tall a new man,
And this world such a wonderful place.
