One More Time
Hello prison bars here I am once again.
Can't run from your past and be a good man.
Old debts being presented the price must be paid.
Now comes the payback for wrong choices made.
My wifes' tearfull sobbing replays in my mind.
A daily occurence as I pray peace she'll find.
Yes. I should have told her of my shamefull, dark life.
But afraid of rejection I caused pain for my wife.
Dear God give her comfort as only You can.
A hedge of protection from spirits and man.
Hold her hand daily as she goes on with life.
And thank-you for giving me
such a wonderful wife.
