Ya Gotta Believe

New of sadness once again heard, another hero gone. Ya Gotta Believe were his famous words, from Tug McGraw's throne. No other could where the crown, what a ball he could throw. Not a better pitcher to be found, all of his fans do know. A hope and courage award you received, a warrrior and fighter. We'll never forget, Y a Gotta Believe, you've made our stadium brighter. Now you're life is put to rest, God show him his path please. This great man has passed the test, in 1980 he won the world series. Wei'll say goodbye, to this one so tall, in our eyes we see. God made his call to Tug McGraw, remember, "Ya Gotta Believe.

Hi Skat A, thanks so much for the welcome. I was injured on the job 15 yrs. ago. Signed myself into Detox with Workers Comp. I was given this gift to write from God. Well during Detox a very good thing happened, Hit by the Holy Spirit, woke the next day Pain FREE, a miracle from God. I thank him each day. Very nice to meet you, Hugs back~~
