The
Lords Promise

The Lord
made me
a promise
I hope
he will never
break
He
promised not
to send to me
any more
than I
could take
Sometimes
though
I feel deep down
that he
has sent
to much
I pray
throughout
the day
but seem
to never
feel his touch
Though
I carry on
and do
the
things I know
I have to do
I feel
alone and
wander aimless
until
another day
is through
I
complete the tasks
before me
in the
best way
that I know
Stopping
several
times to pray
then
back to my
chores I go
I
listen for a word
from him
to show
me that
he is near
But
silence takes
ahold of me
and no
sound do
I hear
Then
with a gentle
whisper
he helps
me
to understand
If I
only look around
I will see
the love
that he
has planned
God
doesn't always
show me
in the
way that
I would choose
How much
he truly
loves me
and
what without
him I would lose
