I had fun writing this one.  I hope you enjoy it!  Bob <><


True Blue


I don't need prayer
from the church I belong to!
I don't need praise
for the clothes that I wear!
I don't need thanks
from the ones I sing songs to!
I don't need love
from the friends who do care!

For I'm true blue,
a true blue Christian.
Lord, I am true blue
in love with You.
Through and through,
more than anything else,
I want to be true blue...
True to You!

...and then everything else will do.

I don't need, "Hello"
from the Pope to be happy!
I don't need funds
in the bank to have wealth!
I don't need rebuke
from a friend to feel crappy!
I don't need pills
from the Doc to have health!

For I'm true blue,
a true blue Christian.
Lord, I am true blue
in love with You.
Through and through,
more than anything else,
I want to be true blue...
True to You!

...and then everything else will do.
