Yes I Can, Yes We Can

President Obama American president
Said yes I can, yes we can, and the whole
Nation cheered. He went on to say, he’ll do
All in his power to restore, and maintain
 Democracy for the entire world to see.  

I say, in my self am nothing, and cannot make
One step without God leading the way. One thing
I can say: yes I can do what He asks me to do
Through Christ He is my strength and stay.

Christ is my all in all, and nothing else.
No one and nothing can take His place,
The all inclusive Christ, full of great wisdom
Love and power not long now before I see His face.

Yes, Abraham, if God were in everyone's heart, Obama's message would indeed come to pass! (with God at the helm) LUv, Andrea
