DEAR JOSEPH
(Paul Espinoza)

- 1 -
Dear Joseph, rest a while by my side,
whisper the words that the angel spoke,
take my hand, be my guide.

- 2 -
Dear Joseph, you have always been strong,
bending to help me to make my way,
come now, it won't be long.

- Bridge 1 -
Our son will guide our every step and lead us into love,
A blessing carry I, unharmed, with your love keeping us warm.

- 3-
Dear Joseph, some may call me blessed,
a woman am I, but I can't deny,
that at times I'm afraid.

- 4 -
Dear Joseph, put your hand into mine,
the hour draws near for a miracle,
you have always been kind.

- Bridge 2 -
Your quiet strength dispels my fears, as no rest do you ask,
So patiently you care for us, our well being your only task.

- 5 -
Dear Joseph, our road reaches the end,
please be my comfort in this lonely place,
feel my joy through my pain.

- 6 -
Dear Joseph, rest awhile by my side,
whisper the words that the angel spoke,
take my hand, be my guide.


Dear Joseph
