The Pastor's Wife
Went to the hospital
Visiting elderly
One in ICU...sedated
Respirator loudly
Running providing life
Life hovering between
This world and another that is
Invisible not seen
Just a touch was all I
Could give and a whispered
Prayer for her recovery
Left feeling that I failed
Went to see another
All the tubes removed now
Preparing to be transported
To rehab will make it how
Joined hands, joined in prayer
Forming a circle care
Knowing God loves and hears..feel fears
Sensing his need for rare
Assurance of God's love
And power feeling lost
To empower him with great strength
I need to feel God most
Tommorrow will be new
New day for me and you
But for these two each day hovers
Between this world and another
