The Answer

“The Answer”
by:  Eric L. Boddie

Even though it is nearing the end of day number seven
There is still time to find the Stairway to Heaven
Because I Am………………God

I am able to heal you with my strength
And break the chain with the missing links
Because I Am………………God

Through the courage it takes to be humble as myself
I have the Power to truly conquer death
Because I Am………………God

In times of doubt, and when hope is lost
I have no fear, I don’t have to pay the cost
Because I Am………………God

When death is near, and you don’t know what to do
The Power of my Prayer can see you through
Because I Am………………God

When your load is heavy and you need the back of a man
It is my duty to extend to you my hand
Because I Am………………God

When everywhere you look, there is hate, and everyone wants to push and shove
Come and find me, I won’t show you anything but Love
Because I Am………………God

And when it is time for us to see our Father and His Son
All any one of us can say is “this is what I’ve done”
Because I Am………………God

His Name is I Am, but you may know Him as God
Is He in you?
