Give Me Just a Little More Time
With so many things to do and even more things to see
I am sorry that I missed You that was me just being me
I was intending to say hi but before I could even think
The whole entire day went by, what seemed like a blink
And so with the day before, getting caught up in things
Never knowing what's in store and all which life brings
This week and last week and the weeks before those
Again we did not speak as for these other ones I chose
In fact this whole year I never once spoke Your Name
I didn't hold You dear nor did I feel any of my shame
In fact Lord it's been many years for many years past
Seeing in these tears I can't even remember the last
But today Lord I'm here and it's so good to be back
I know You are always near matters not how I lack
I knew I could come back home as You said it to be
No matter how far I roamed you always loved me
Ecclesiastes 3:6
A time to get, and a time to lose;
a time to keep, and a time to cast away;
