Love is the Golden Key
to unlock doors that have been shut so long,
where contact seems oppressive
and a future bleak with fog!
Come stranger to my house today.
Let us sit down and talk,
over a glass of tea and quiet hours.
Let us review ourselves and meditate.
A prayer would help, and God so near.
We now can lift the blinds,
Let in the light of love,
as we expose our wicked words
and ponder what we said in haste
and need to be forgiven.
So here we are,
the two of us who once were friends,
and now we’re ready to renew
our precious days and ways.
All it takes is that Golden Key,
for as we feel that former love
reaching to warm our hearts.
What can we say or do
to welcome once again
our former selves into our hearts.
So simple is it all as God speaks
to us in quiet tones.
Forget the darkness of the past,
call up that Golden Key of Love.
It is the shining pathway once again.
We now can feel forgiven,
as we now weep, our golden words.
Forgive me, I was wrong!
So sorry for my failure, I was lost.
But now I’ve found my way.
The Golden Key is mine.
I love you! We are one again.
The Golden Key of Love
Has tied our hearts anew.
Our loving God has helped us.
The dark walls have fallen now at last.
At last, the Golden Key of Love is ours!
