God Loves

Childhood innocence has long-since passed
And youthful excitement has slipped from my grasp
All that’s left for me now is the burden of age
And I often wonder how I got to this stage
Days ebb and flow in a tedious row
With nothing to do and no place to go
But is this the way my life has to be? 
Or is there just something wrong with me?

Dear Lord, I am puzzled, I guess I should pray
Are you there?  Can you hear me?  That was all I could say
Yet God heard my words and reached down from above
And covered my heart with His blanket of love
He bandaged my wounds with His tender touch
And showed me the kindness I needed so much
His compassions failed not to set my soul free
And my life was made whole by His love for me

So, if your life is rocky like mine used to be
God is able to help you and He’s always ready
Lift your prayers to Him and see what He’ll do
He won’t hold back because He really loves you
