Love Wrote the Play

The song Show The Way by David Wilcox played on my iTunes today and I had such a strong emotional reaction to the lyric (again - I've heard it a million times), but it made me want to share it (emphasis mine).
Look, if someone wrote a play
Just to glorify what's stronger than hate
Would they not arrange the stage
To make it look as if the hero came too late?
As if he's almost in defeat
So it's lookin' like the evil side will win
So on the edge of every seat
From the moment that the whole thing begins -It has been love that mixed the mortar
It was love that stacked the stones
It was love that made the stage here
And made it feel like we're alone
Within some scene set in shadow
Like the night is here to stay
There is evil cast around us
But it's love that wrote this playSo that in this darkness love can show the way
It's a good reminder for me. What special things give you hope and strength? How long since you reconnected with them?

Big Horizon is my favorite cd of his- still. I am sorry I haven't called or written- Mom and Dad and Russ just left today so it's back to Normal life again. Whoa I just made a pun.
