Hi Jesus _It's Me Again
Hi Jesus...it's me again.
Hope I'm not disturbing You.
I feel so very sad tonight.
I need You to see me through.
The house is quiet...much too quiet...
The TV isn't airing.
He was a little hard of hearing...
Always kept the volume blaring.
He was a News hound, as You know,
Always tuned to CNN.
Oh, how I wish that he were here
To blare the News again!
In the bathroom lay a magazine
Where he marked a certain page.
I picked it up and threw it
In a raw, self-pitying rage!
Then my eyes beheld his Bible
There on the bedside table.
Oh, Lord, please hold me close tonight
For he is no longer able.
I'm such an empty, emotional mess.
I guess I never was prepared
For him to leave me here alone
With all the memories we shared.
We were so intensely happy, Lord...
Loved each other, oh, so much.
There were always hugs and kisses...
Always a special, loving touch.
And all the little things he did
I never realized I'd miss...
Like pre-preparing the coffee pot
Or writing down the grocery list.
I recall the moments when we prayed
And worshipped You together.
You blessed us with a bond so strong
It holds through death-like weather.
I miss the twinkle in his eyes...
That sweet lop sided grin.
His lanky length laid on my bed...
Miss the warm touch of his skin.
I feel so cold...so out of place.
Things have changed so drastically.
Tonight I sprayed on his cologne
Just to keep his scent with me.
Lord, I know I'm acting rather strange
But I believe You understand.
As I go through each stage of grief
I sense Your Grace gripping my hand.
I couldn't make it through this night
Nor the nights and days ahead
Without Your Word to comfort me
Or without the peace You spread.
So, yes, Hi Jesus...it's me again.
Hope I'm not disturbing You.
But I feel so very sad tonight
And I need You to see me through.
Loving You Forever,
