Analysis of Just Let It Be.



I went for a walk just the other day,
I picked up a pebble along the way,
Sensing the beauty from within,
I stood at the road side with a grin,

I looked down the road way as far as I could see,
Wondering if only I would run into thee,
A smile lifted me, and my heart,
I knew from within we will never part,

I placed that pebble into my pocket,
And there I found a golden locket,
Opening it up with heart felt love,
Out flew a beautiful white dove,

I will take that walk again one day,
Looking down the road the same way,
Should a pebble, may it be found,
I will continue lying upon the ground,

Heavenly Father, God of all good,
Show me the way, I have misunderstood,
As the sun began to beat down upon me,
The warmth of your love dear God, I can see.
