God Will Supply
God will supply nothing but your needs;
All your wants might just be wild weeds,
Put to mind the mystery of His kind creeds,
Focus on fate and faith in his love He leads.
I asked for strength, space and speed,
He gave me difficulties that kept me on the move.
I asked him for wisdom, and a word-well,
And he gave me problems and puzzles to solve.
I asked for a happy home and lovely life
He gave me a wise wife and cheerful children
I asked for a juicy job, with wealth and wares
He gave me ability to solve people’s problems
I asked him for powerful poems to write;
He gave me passion, a plain pad and a pen,
I asked him for a noble name and… fame,
He gave me grace and dropped me in a den.
I asked for a wide wood, he gave small seeds,
1 asked for love and he gave me daring deeds,
I asked Him for a farm, he gave me flour feeds,
I asked Him what I wanted, he supplied my needs.
