When I am tired and feeling low,
I know I have a place to go.
My God will always take me in
And wipe away my tears and sin.

So if you're at that stage in life,
Where you are worn out with strife;
Just turn to Him and you will see,
He has a place for you to be.

When you are feeling all alone,
God's nearer than your telephone.
You'll never get a busy ring.
Just turn to Him for everything.

Joyce 5/14/2001

Dear Joyce:  So true and well done!  What a comfort it is to know that He is always waiting to hear from us.
