Footprints in the sand

The best things in life cannot be kept, they must be given away...love, hugs, joy...Oh well, maybe these sweet little cupcakes too :P

Attended Lissa’s (Rene’s sis) wedding today, it’s a church wedding, kinda like ages since I last attended a church wedding. When those hymns were sung, it just felt like attending chapel sessions in school during my secondary school days. “Footprints in the sand” was sung towards the end of the ceremony…I remember when I first heard Leona Lewis sing this song some time back in her CD, “Spirit”, I was really very touched by it and I could listen to it a couple of times in one day :P…When I heard this song again today, I was moved once again, the way I always did when I heard it for those countless times in the past. Tears stung the corners of my eyes…

Footprints in the sand

You walked with me
Footprints in the sand
And helped me understand
Where I’m going

You walked with me
When I was all alone
With so much unknown
Along the way
Then I heard you say

I promise you
I’m always there
When your heart is filled with sorrow and despair
I’ll carry you
When you need a friend
You’ll find my footprints in the sand

I see my life flash across the sky
So many times have I been so afraid
And just when I thought I’d lost my way
You gave me strength to carry on
That’s when I heard you say
