* Youth is a gift of nature, but age is a work of art.

* The luxury of doing good surpasses every other personal enjoyment.

The Night Song

Written by Marilyn Chapman

The night is a song

And it beguiles me like the nightingale

It flirts with my spirit

Cunning as a lion in wait for my soul

Tis God will crush him under my feet

Turn even this bitter for my sweet

When morning comes I'll find my peace
