MY SWEET SARA (RVD)

YOU ARE MY CREATOR,

YOU ARE MY STRENGTH.

THEN WHY DO I ALWAYS RUN

TO A MERE MORTAL WHENEVER I HAVE A PROBLEM?

AND INADVERTENTLY THE WRONG ONE.

I SHOULD BE FOLLOWING YOUR WORDS,

STAYING ON MY KNEES,

PRAYING THROUGH

ALL OF THESE DIFFICULTIES.

FOR YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE

WHO CAN MAKE THINGS RIGHT

AND GIVE MY DAUGHTER BACK TO ME.

ALTHOUGH SHE REALLY

 BELONGS TO YOU.

I CAN ASK ALL OF THE QUESTIONS

UNTIL I'M BLUE IN THE FACE,

CRY ALL OF THE TEARS UNTIL I'M DRY.

(I HOPE YOU STILL HAVE SOME EMPTY BOTTLES,

FOR I FEAR I AM NOT DONE FILLING THEM WITH MY TEARS.)

BUT YOU ALL READY HAVE THE ANSWER,

YOU ALL READY KNOW THE DAY AND THE PLACE

WHEN I WILL SEE A SMILE JUST FOR ME

ON MY SWEET SARA'S FACE.

IT MAY NOT BE UNTIL THE END,

BUT I HAVE A FEELING THAT'S NOT THAT FAR AWAY.

THANK YOU, JESUS,

FOR SAVING ME
AND GIVING ME GRACE.
