Ashanti Neely-Vigil Poet Rhyme

Excuse Me, Jesus

EXCUSE ME , JESUS. I'LL SAY IT NOW, FOR I'M CERTAIN ON THAT GLORIOUS DAY, WHEN 
YOU COME BACK TO PICK ME UP,      
NO WORDS WILL I BE ABLE TO CONVAY.

I KNOW MY MIND WILL LEAVE ME,....... FINE! 
I WONT NEED IT ANYWAY! 
HOW MY HEART, EVEN NOW, YEARNS FOR YOU.
AND I'M SORRY, BUT I WONT WAIT MY TURN TO TOUCH YOU. 
TO HUG YOUR NECK, AND KISS YOUR TOE. 
AND I'M CERTAIN THAT I WON'T LET GO. 

I FEEL IT'S NECESSARY TO DECLARE TO ALL 
THAT I WILL BE THE JESUS-FOOL! 
I''LL TRY MY BEST TO GIVE YOU ALL SOME ROOM, 
CUZ I KNOW THAT YOU LOVE HIM, TOO.

OH, WHAT AN UNIMAGINABLE MASS JUBILATION!
AN UNCENSORED, INCOMPREHENSIBLE,  JOYOUS CELEBRATION!
HOW, OH LORD, WILL WE ALL  HOLD YOU @ THE SAME TIME?!?

SURELY, YOU AND FATHER HAVE IT ALREADY PLANNED.
A MILLION ON YOUR HIP, AND A MILLION AT EACH HAND.  
MAYBE 6MILLION CARESSING STRANDS OF YOUR HAIR, 
AND 10 MILLION KISSING YOUR FEET. 

SO, EXCUSE ME NOW, AND I LOVE YOU,MY PRECIOUS JESUS. 
I'LL SAY IT NOW WHILE I AM ABLE TO SPEAK.
