My Life Remains
"My Life Remains"
by: Eric L. Boddie
One week ago I looked death in the face without fear
Since Jesus Is In my heart, I am still here
Riding along with my uncle, a friend pulled into our path
And he hesitated rather than mashing the gas
There was nothing we could do, Unc tried his best to miss
And as he veered slightly to the left, there were four Lives that can now reminisce
Of an event that could have torn two families apart
But God Was With us from the very start
No broken bones, but the doctors say I may have a pinched nerve
Because the strength in my right arm seems to have forgotten how to serve
And that is the write arm and writing is about all I can now do
This is something I would wish for no one to go through
But s*** happens, and that is all I can say
And before it happens to you, make sure you Know How To Pray
