What is the dream . . . you wish to come true,
Is it a place . . . you’ve been longing to see;
Things didn’t happen as once thought they would,
Relationships broken . . . hope ends in despair,
God has a way to turn dreams around,
There are valleys to cross and mountains to climb,
May 1, 1992 - Florence, Italy
