M's Poetry
Here All This Time
It's taken me all this time to see the sun
It's taken me all these roads to choose more carefully
You've given me rain to wash away the soul that is soiled
and all this time spent around this room
searching for reason with a fine tooth comb
if I would have just listened
Your plan was here all along
sorry dear Jesus because I have wasted all this time
I've been flipping through pages full of golden rules
if I had actually read them closely
took them to heart
I wouldn't be tripping over the same old things
I thought I had long since removed
cuz I really do believe in helping thy fellow man
and although I rarely help a neighbor cuz I don't know them
I do believe in that concept
so I give my promise oh Lord in this prayer
to better learn Your creed, turn thy other cheek
I am here at Your mercy Jesus, help me.....
sorry dear Jesus because I have wasted all this time
cuz You been paving the way, making it straight
I have been hesitant but tonight all that stops here
you have been flooding my thoughts
and I have discovered the power of Jesus
now I'm breaking the locks making my way through
I can see to the other side and I'm so glad it's You!
