Just Wonderin' Why Lord

Wonderin’ Why Eighty years…goin Strong…What has God against me To let me live so long? My friends and family are gone Have shed this earthly vale… Why do I tarry on? Could death be no more Than mere metamorphisis A breaking of a brand new dawn? Why me…alone O Lord Am I punished or am I blessed Why allow me to live so long? Eighty years in this vale of tears And still no end in sight What am I doing wrong…or right? …why do I live so long?...
