Oasis of Love
You are one of the people
On whom I depend.
You give of yourself
Just because you're a friend.
You expect no reward
For the kindness you give,
But the Father above
Knows that each day you live
You're an oasis of love in the desert of life,
A gentle reminder of God's holy light.
You help replace my doubts and fears
With a hope from above. New joy springs eternal
From the oasis of love.
You're a shoulder to cry on
When my world falls apart.
You're a doctor who helps mend
The breaks in my heart.
With a sweet, loving spirit,
That never condemns,
You patiently tend
To the needs of your friend.
You're an oasis of love in the desert of life,
A gentle reminder of God's holy light.
You help replace my doubts and fears
With a hope from above. New joy springs eternal
From the oasis of love.
And on that final day
When we shall ascend
To reign with the Lord
In a life without end,
The joy that you gave
To so many on earth
Will now be returned
In an eternity's worth.
You're an oasis of love in the desert of life,
A gentle reminder of God's holy light.
You help replace my doubts and fears
With a hope from above. New joy springs eternal
From the oasis of love.
