Analysis of Mast of destiny

Heather Lydia Thornhill 1981 (Manchester)



Guide my destiny
Power events of me
You are my creator
Goodness of God free
In my spirit be
Shake the hand of truth
Display your love in me
My souls eternal youth
Bring sail my fate that kneels
In your loving arms that heal
Blessed with how I feel
