There But For the Grace of God
I can only imagine
How horrible it would be
In a world of total darkness
If I couldn't hear or see
How would I communicate?
If I could only use my touch
If I couldn't understand it
How would it help that much?
I would never hear "I love you"
Or see a beautiful smile
I could never know the greatest things
That make this life worthwhile
And what about the loneliness
That I would feel inside
I would never know accomplishment
Even though I tried
Now, I may never know their heartache
Nor even probably ever understand why
The only thing I know for sure is
There but for the Grace of God go I
