How Much Can One Heart Take?

This is Mindy Gledhill singing "Emma" a tribute to Joseph the Prophet.  It's stories like this that really help to put my life in perspective and teaches me that I can be strong and that I can do my life!

Never had an ordinary day

Never lived your life in an ordinary way

For everything you loved you paid a price

But you couldn't let the world see you cry

Never had a moment of peace

Never felt the sunlight

When the worries set you free

Every time your life turned a page

It seemed like your heart might break

With the world on your shoulders

When the nights had grown colder

You seemed to weather every storm

With a queen's grace

When you lost your husband

When you buried your children

I'm sure the angels stood in reverence as you prayed

How much can on heart take

Never had a day to call your own

When so many needed your warm heart as a home

Whispering a mother's lullaby

As you sat alone by the fire

And i'm sure your heart breaks, when some people still say

Somewhere down the line you lost your faith

How much can one heart take

How much can one heart take
