Time like this have come before,
Never quite knowing what’s in store.
When we arrive, our actions are as one,
No thoughts need to be spoken, just simply done.
To soothe a child’s cry, to ease the pain,
Knowing times like this will come again.
Though it’s done only once a week,
The bond between us is quite unique.
Different than that of man and wife,
For we can say we’ve saved a life.
To some it may just seem routine,
The things we’ve done, the sight’s we’ve seen.
But you and I know it’s changed our hearts,
The ways we’ve seen lives torn apart.
And seen life begin new and fresh,
All the while praying we’ve done our best.
Someday another will take our place,
A youthful still unknowing face.
But never will time cloud my view,
Of all the things I’ve shared with you…
For we are partners…
