An Opened Door

She had fallen so far where she didn't even care anymore Driving that old car just another routine trip to the store With her mind on other things pulling into the parking lot Oh the blessings Life brings in knowing what you've got For just up ahead was a man struggling with his two canes And the little she said, as these words one too often feigns Just as she was about to go past he answered her little reply A thought that would last and would often help her get by And as she held the shops door he slowly passed on by And then he added just a little more to her original reply For what she had thought instead, and all of her little pains Was all just in her head but this man never ever complains "With a God that is so great, how can I not but be amazed" For here there wasn't any debate it was the Lord he praised He didn't have to do this nor would any of us expect him to But the point she didn't miss looking up at that sky so blue
