Somebody Else

Somebody Else had a heavier cross
Than the one I bear today;
And the path were far too steep for me,
Had not Somebody led the way.
~~~~~~~~~
Somebody Else's tired Hands
And Somebody's wounded Feet,
Were never too weary to minister,
And Somebody's smile was sweet.
~~~~~~~~~
Somebody Else's Head was bent,
Not with the weight of years,
And the light in Somebody's beautiful Eyes
Was dimmed by many tears.
~~~~~~~~~
Somebody Else was left alone,
Beneath an olive tree,
And nobody cared for Somebody Else
More than they do for me.
~~~~~~~~~
But away past life's dull gloaming,
Across the Crystal Sea,
Somebody Else and I shall love -
For all Eternity
