WE'RE NOT ISLANDS IN THE SEA

 I look at friends I love so dear

And see much that I desire

The way they want to serve the Lord

Walk a little higher

But as I get to know them more

A different facet’s seen

Scars from hurts along life’s path

And hard places they have been

Regrets for things that they did wrong

And the price they had to pay

And the burdens that they had to bear

Carry all the way

Not only love I feel now

But the burdens that they bear

The regret once theirs now are mine

It’s the price of loving care

Their shame is mine along with scars

We’re not islands in the sea

You’re in me and I’m in you

I’m not me but we.
