Because I was and am no more
Before all hope slips out the door
And leaves me here out on my own
With what I fear is yet unknown
I beg You, Lord, bide with me still
Until I’ve learned to do His will !
Because I was and am no more
Before all hope slips out the door
And leaves me here out on my own
With what I fear is yet unknown
I beg You, Lord, bide with me still
Until I’ve learned to do His will !
This is my home, my place of birth
The dearest spot to me on earth
Because it’s where my life did start,
I learned to love and use my heart.
For every moment of each day
When I was taught to speak and pray
This is the place I shall recall
That still remains the best of all.
A gentle touch, a tender hug
A handshake or a kindly tug
Are ways we show how much we care
And promise always to be there !
I never thought that I would be
A victim of hypocrisy
But day by day in every way
I see the role I’m meant to play.
Truth is I can’t remember when
We’ll have the chance to speak again
Though I shall wish you all the best
While begging God, control the rest !
The winds of change blow loud and long
I hear the call both wild and strong
While in my mind the challenge grows
From my head down unto my toes.
My heart’s in pain and agony
There is no help that I can see
This world I’ve known melted away
Please help me God, I’ve lost my way !
