At the church service lastnight
they sang Psalm 71
grabbed me and I remembered the first time
I had heard this message sung
at your church as you held my hand
I was aware that the lord was speaking to me
for the coincidence was far to fecthed
a message was there, as I silently said a prayer
seemed the lord spoke to my heart so wretched
Later came "I love to tell a story"
this spoke volumes to me as well
I thought of you at that moment
as we too have a story to tell
I know that our love was blessed
for I was led to him through you
and I pray each night and day for an answer
please lord show me what to do
For life without you seems to be
a living hell for today and tommorow
I asked his will be done and trusted in him
waited and wondered in sorrow
Maybe I have outlived the past
outrun the temptation of fate
I pray each day for an answer from above
what to do with this love, the answer I patiently...await
