 Listen To the Chimes 

Carol Roach

Drip, drip, drip - the faucet in the bathroom drips, constant, faithful, never ending, abundant, forever. The sound reminds me of footsteps in a parade. The march goes on. It has a destination, a purpose, a reason for being.

Life is full of ups and downs. There are many things we can control and many we cannot. When I listen to my chimes it tells me, like the water faucet, we must continue to march to the tune of our own personal melody.

I must continue on steadfast, never daunting. I must meet head on what life has in store for me. We are soldiers in the parade of life. We have God-given strength to carry us through to the end.

We march in faith.
We march in strength.
We march in unison
We march in good times and in bad,
We are one with the universe and we continue,

Drip, drip, drip,
The water faucet sings,
Drip, drip, drip,
The water is free flowing,
Drip, drip, drip,
Our life can be free flowing,

Just listen to chimes of your heart and embrace what comes your way. Hold your head high and march with a power emanating from the core of your being.

Keep the faith and never falter
Take on life as it comes
Listen to the chimes and open your heart
Have the courage and trust in
yourself

You are beautiful,
You are divine,
You are a soldier of the universe,
Listen to the chimes.
