Poem
Stumbling I've seen the price, Of not answering the call, In touch with the Holy Spirit, I've seen the love within us all, I have been in the company, Of the one who brushed sin away, He is beautiful, loving and kind, He asked me if I'd like to shape clay, Now to this day I have studied, I have shared in great fellowship, I have tried to capture the truth, Praying and fasting in loving worship, And lessons I learn and share, Combined with the life I have led, I hitched over twenty thousand miles, And people around the world I've met, I have worked in ivory towers, Had a radio show across the land, But I have also been a laborer, Who worked until I could hardly stand, Trained in real estate regulations, Insurance and securities rules too, But I've also been a garbage man, And begged for my dinner a time or two, The blessings of this up and down life, Where I've been up and down so many times, I now know the benefits of this strife, It's helped me understand my crimes, Those times so full of arrogance, Where I hurt those who I hardly knew, But even worse were the sad times, When I hurt those I professed love to, I was weak and tired but I tried to stand, Not worthy but the Lord gave me power, When I followed his simple loving way, Then Holy blessings were like a shower, The more I reach to understand, What the Lord would have me do, And to answer the call of the Lord, I am always led right back to you, I am not sure what I can share, For I've seen the world good and bad, And all people need to be spared, To be blessed with all they need to have,
