The Real Deal

Pulled from the depths of despair by the hair my own hand doing the yanking Never forgetting as I struggle to shore Who I really should be thanking Given the strength by ONE greater than All situation or cause I marvel at his long suffering At his mercy meditatively pause A peace soon comes upon me flailing in this dark troubled sea Of mankind roiling Within white capped wave help me no part of it to be As I pray that HE patiently continue please to Work on me to bring me to life to revive Without HIS power HIS kindness His Love I'd scarcely be found alive I will not fight God's life saving effort given freely when all was lost To bite the hand that has spiritually fed Will not stupidly pay this cost I put before you today HE spoke The blessing or malediction Know as you choose friend its You making the choice and That this is no work of fiction
