Lord You are a Blessing to Me
by

Vicki Wood

I'm sitting here thinking about
The day I will see Your face,
Such an honour bestowed me,
Such an amazing grace.

I sit with my head in my hands,
Wanting to cry as pain
Ravishes my body, and ask
Of you, "Why, Lord? why?"

I ask every one, "Just please,
Don't touch me. Don't even bump it."
I guess I will always be in pain
'Til the time Gabriel blows his trumpet.

Lord, I know I'm not supposed to
Understand why or any of the reason
But every year, every month,
And every day of every season ...

I come to You, Lord, with my spirit broken
And my soul is dangerously bent.
I get reminded, by God, that I was saved
By His Son, Jesus, who God lovingly sent.

I get so tired, weak, and just, oh, so weary
From the aches and all the pain.
Sometimes, it's so hard for me to hang on
To reality. or, am I going insane?

There is two things I ask of you, Lord,
And that is to be happy and healthy
Because, when my time comes, I can't take
Earthly things. so, why ask to be wealthy?

Lord, you're a blessing to me and oh,
So precious too. so, why can't You see
When I call upon You? please, touch me,
Bless and heal me. oh, what a day that will be!

My life here, on earth, is nothing
But a prisoner in a painful, empty, ol' shell.
But, through you, Lord, one day, I'll never hurt,
Cry, or get sick. oh, won't that be swell!

Even though I'm still a human, that
Makes me a truly confessed sinner,
Please forgive me, Lord, and, with all of my heart
I ask, won't you come to my family dinner?

Thank you, Lord, for loving me
And setting my soul free.
I can't wait to see you and walk
With you - right next to me.
