JUST SUPPOSE

Lyrics by Milton L Delgado ©2015

Suppose the winds ceased to blow.
Suppose the seeds we could no longer sow.
Suppose there would never be another spring.
Suppose the song birds could no longer sing.
Suppose, just suppose.

Suppose that flowers no longer bloomed.
Suppose the light vanished from the moon.
Suppose trees and plants were plucked from the ground.
Suppose the world stopped spinning around.
Suppose, just suppose.

Suppose we had just one life to live.
Suppose none of our sins, no one could forgive.
Suppose the seas and oceans suddenly dried.
Suppose the stars and planets fell from the sky.
Suppose, just suppose.

Suppose we could no longer hope for peace.
Suppose the rainfall suddenly ceased.
Suppose the gift of love was lost...

                       C                  G               C
Response - Lord, how I love Your law!

         F                       C                  G
My part, I have resolved, O Lord,
F           C               G
is to obey your word.

The law from your mouth means more to me

than silver and gold.

Response - Lord, how I love Your law!

Holy Mother hear our prayer. As your poor children we come to you
We need your help in this fight. For the poor souls lost in this night
Holy Mother intercede in this time of our greatest need 
You love each one of us that your son died for out of pure love!

REFRAIN
HOLY MOTHER YOU SHOWED US HOW
TO LIVE IN HUMBLE SIMPLICITY
Queen of Martyrs with the King of Martyrs

Let all things now living a song of thanksgiving
To God our Father triumphantly raise
Who fashioned and made us, protected and saved us,
Who guideth us on to the end of our days.
His banners are o’er us, his light goes before us
A pillar of fire shining forth in the night: 

The lyrics for this song are based on a poem written by Milton Delgado.
