Lord lift me up Upwards, raw handed, one at a time I climbed the rope towards a higher power, towards the light. The longer the length between my legs, the better off I felt, I thought myself higher. I was happy enough when I saw the words No Luggage Allowed, I had strength only to carry me. I made one mistake though in leaving my weaknesses behind. He and all of darkness now knew my deepest limits, open hearted I tend to write. My hate and pain I had written for all to read and it was with gleaming eyes he dutifully noted each time I broke. I never saw him wield the blade but I remember breaking when I hit the ground. I cannot do this alone I know now you never intended it so. Once again this morn I pray Lord lift me up...

Jesus, lift my sister/brother up and help them to overcome whatever the obsticle is in their life and return them once again to their rightful place where they once were on the rope of life and keep them climbing ever higher in You.... You've got at least one behind you my friend helping to push you on up higher. [This message has been edited by Lighthousebob (edited 07-18-2001).] |
