Instead of Tears Shed
Instead of Tears Shed
God guess what here I am as usual again
After having gone through thick and then
That You helped me work my way out of
Using great ability filled with much love.
About God often would begin to truly think
Of how deep dirty dishes are in stupid sink
Knowing it was God's help I should elect
With all His great audacious cleansing affect.
Really makes no difference how hard I try
God cleaned up my life and it did purify
So with you more of Him I should share
Dishonor God no not me would never dare.
Wheels keep spinning and life goes on
And suddenly something on me just did dawn
After almost going slowly fast asleep in bed
Instead of tears shed prayers I should have said.
Wow. Say that without biting your tongue.
