EDIT: I've added the melody to this. I don't know anything about chords or guitars but I can make a melody on the piano. The letters in parenthesis is the melody. Each syllable gets a new note. Middle C position, capital letters mean below middle C, lower case letters are middle C or above. PM me if you have any questions or have a suggestion as to how I can write this clearer.

It does not do to dwell on dreams and forget to live.

these are very good and moving lyrics, the only verse i didn't like was the first verse, it was just a little sketchy to me, other then that the song is very good

I like this song a lot. Though I am only reading lyrics, I can feel the rhythm and the flow of it. As always when anyone writes that there is a guitar part but does not elaborate, I am curious to know what chords you are using, because it gives a better idea of the feel of the entire song. My one recommendation would be to simply put the tablature at the end, where it can be ignored by those who don't care or don't understand, but appreciated by those to whom it will make a difference. If you can find the time to send me a message, I would be very interested to know what the accompaniment for this involves. I got the feeling from the lyrics that it may have a minor theme, but there are any number of ways you could have done it.

P.S. Although this has nothing to do with your actual post, I have to mention that I love your signature. Marvelous Light is a wonderful song, and I myself am also proud to be a Christian. I love talking to people who share my passion for God and music.
