Line by Line

The scripture verses all written on the page

O’ Lord why do I still fail you at this age?

In the Bible written plain for me

Is the story of Jesus who died to set me free.

In my heart He rules as King of kings,

And nothing of this earth now means anything.

Lord, take the words and mold them to stay

So O’ Lord I will always know what to say.

The Book of Life will list all the many names,

And You will not listen to any false claims.

Somehow I find it hard these days

To on life’s journey find my way.

It makes me thankful for Your Words

That through the years I have heard.

In the sermon they read a verse or two,

And they are all telling me about You.

I love the Bible because its pages are true.

I have never liked things that were not real,

But Lord, please help me over how I now feel.

Maybe all the prayers written down for You

Will one day help another not to be blue.

There are just not any other words that matter now

I am most comforted by things You show me how.

Lord, You give me a rhyme to write down

O’ Lord it is You I want to stay around.

So never leave me as You told me long ago

Keep me sheltered in Your arms now once more!
