You Saved Me

You saved my soul
from the streams of  .
You helped my heart;
I couldn’t swim… but sinking.
You lifted my life,
I would have died…drowning.
Oh who sent you the message?
You don’t understand my language
yet you came around
And pulled me to the ground

You delivered my dream
from death and danger.
You sensed me scream,
you were just a strolling stranger.
You gave me a colorful cream
And moved me from my messy manger
You came right in time,
your deeds were more than a dime.
You never knew me,
yet, you made me full and free.

Sometimes it takes a stranger to hear the call of someone in need. That is how John and I became good friends on the soup. God works in wonderful ways. God Bless Phyl
