See!
Watch him,!
This Stranger!
A foreigner,
Keeps looking at me
And discerns precisely
What I long to hear so much;-
Speaks to me exactly the words
That I need to hear to carry on,-
Just too fantastic to believe it, -
There is much more than meets the eye;
The strange fellow looks at me
With piercing awareness,!
And smiles knowingly
At my deep needs,
And knows them,
How come?
Lo!
Yes!
Today
It happened,
Hard to believe!
This unknown stranger
Came up and spoke to me
Words I longed so much to hear,
That no one else had yet pronounced,
But kept ringing deeply in my heart,
Would a MAN be able so speak so?-
Sweetness and comfort enwrapped me,
Strangers sure know how to speak,-
Tenderness, warmth and peace,
With the assurance,
All will be well;
Love you so!
Praise the
Lord!
