"4. We Are Yours--Rick Cua"
Day by day, in Your Spirit I walk / Yet day by day, I may stumble / You shine the way, though at times I seem lost / I've found a faith that won't crumble /
So many shadows reach down for me / The ways of the world darken my door / But as for me and my house / We will serve the Lord / As for me and my house / We are Yours /
With open hearts, we have welcomed You in / You warm this world that You gave us / When the air grows cold and the dark times begin / It's Your grace alone that will save us
Just as the night takes our sight away / The enemy comes, trying for more /
...
And if I fall beneath my burdens / You lift me up and carry me / And through it all I feel Your presence / Say the word and I am free...
Slower and more tender but still somber, "We Are Yours" made enough use of the plural that she suspected he was using it to hint at a third person, marking the beginning of his work as a father. Judging by the tone, this was not a task that he took lightly. On the contrary, he was so serious that it left her feeling like she had walked through molasses. With so many heavy thoughts, smiles must have been unusually precious to him.
