Poem
Thank you Sweet Lord For this wonderful day The comfort I slept in The bed where I lay My faith in my waking Was never in doubt Your Love in abundance I’m never without I’ve lived on the edge In my thoughts and my deeds But each time I fall Lord You fulfil my needs I know I’m not perfect Not even that close But know in my heart That I love you the most You’ve lovingly made me From nothing but dust To live among nature To bathe in your trust I fail in my goals Lord I’m often so wrong But my faith in your Saviour Is righteous and strong I cry and I argue As misdeeds come my way Bewilderment, sadness Extremes of dismay But time heals all wounds And you’ve never as yet Burdened my soul With more than regret Money and power The chains that men wear Evil incarnate The emblem they wear The Heavens seem broken Hell’s taking its toll I wish I could help Lord Mankind find his soul The wings of the Angels Too heavy for carriage Set loose from loves cradle An eniquitous marriage Find favour in hatred In Evil find rapture While the souls of the living They wantonly capture Does the fate found in Fatima Herald our ending Or is it a portent That mankind is bending To the will of the Devil Corruption and vice Can you feel mans compassion Enshrouded in Ice Oh! What will it take For to open our eyes To see through the Evil This fabric of lies Come! Lend us your wisdom Help us see past our fears Your wonderous truth Let it wipe dry our tears The paths that I followed Far too often misled To stray from your side Lord Is the fear that I dread I yearn for my children In a world I don’t know And I’ll Cry and I’ll Pray For the sweet seeds they’ll sow
