CARING ONES HAVE BROUGHT ME

                                            

Mark 7: 32

 

                                      Lord I am deaf in right ear and left,

                                                      And this keeps me apart and bereft,

                                                      Since Your messages I cannot hear,

                                                      I come, but it’s as if I’m not there;

                                                     At times, kind people signed words for me,

                                                     And I am thankful for eyes that see,

                                                     But often when signers are not there,

                                                      I am left to myself, in despair;

                                                     Lord place Your hand on me, if You will,

                                                     I know there’s healing in Your touch still:

                                                    Caring ones have brought me here to You,

                                                     Knowing exactly what You can do. 

                                    Lord my speech is nothing but garble,

                                                   To speak well, I just am not able,

                                                   To attend Your meetings, I can walk,

                                                   But it makes no sense when I do talk,

                                                   At times I’m asked on paper to write,

                                                   That I can do for I have good sight,

                                                   But when paper becomes a bother,

                                                   I become hindrance to some other;

                                                   Lord place Your hand on me, for You can,

                                                   Do for me as You did for that man:

                                                   I’ve followed caring ones here to You,

                                                   I know exactly what You can do. 

                                                                           Amen!
