Hopes--God Loans Us Things

Hopes, I'm a caretaker
 and I own not none
 I'm a wishful thinker
WHY! WHY ? Because 
My prayers are worthy 
My hopes are high 
I'm like a hung jury 
Being caught up in a lie
 God loans me much 
HE'S not a bank
Nor is He a man that He would like
God loans me all 
God loans me abundance 
And still does God loans me 
My father, mother, brother and sister 
All, all of my love 
He loans me creatures big and small 
Birds and fishes everything all
All that He created my God has loaned unto me
I am a care taker of all that I see
