A Lonely Man Laid Down In His Bed

A lonely man laid down in his bed
As he began to cry and grieve
Because his wife was no longer by his side
Because she had recently died
And he had lost all of his desires to live
And he really didn’t know how he could
possibly survive without her by his side
Because there was nothing in the world
that he cherished more then his wife’s love
Because she loved him more then anyone did
As he loved her till the day that she died
But that night before he went to sleep
He kneeled down by his bed side
And he prayed to the Lord
To lift him up from
The heavy burdens that he carried
So that the good Lord could
Give him the strength that he didn’t have
So that he could continue to live without
his wife by his side
Because he knew in his heart
that is what
his wife would have wanted
