No One Knows
by Michael Sullivant
Christmas 2009

No one knows my love as I
The way she loves, giving her best
To her Lord, her clan, her friends
Grown children once held at her breast.

No one knows my love as I
The way she cries, giving her soul
To care about the trials and pain
That sometimes leave loved ones un-whole.

No one knows my love as I
The way she prays both day and night
Touching God, she intercedes
And moves His heart to show His might

No one knows my love as I
The way she lives on through the years
Straight and true she’s carried on
Surmounting all her youthful fears.

No one knows my love as I
The way she shines, a rad’ant glow
At her best and at her worst
Her amazing heart has kept its flow.

No one knows my love as I
The way she wins, giving her all
Though sorely tempted to give in…
She’s laughing loud, she’s standing tall.
