I thought I was alone last night
The sky was still the moon so bright
A fragile silence filled the air
Almost as though someone were there !
Deep in the shadows of my room
I shivered in the subtle gloom
And whispered softly in my prayers
When all else fails I know God cares !
Now as I close my eyes with ease
To slowly sink upon my knees
I’m not quite sure how I shall rise
But when I do tis God’s surprise!
