"MY GOD IN ME"


CAN'T CONTROL THE UNIVERSE,
OR BRING PEACE TO THE MIDDLE EAST.
CAN'T STOP THE WARS OF RWANDA,
OR CURE THE HUNGERS OF UGHANDA.
I KNOW LITTLE OF POLITICS,
OR WHAT MAKES ECONOMICS TICK.
BUT, WITHIN MY HEART THERE IS ONE,
WHO IS FAR WISER,
THAN THIS SIMPLE GIRL IS SMART.

HE HOLDS THE UNIVERSE WITHIN HIS HAND,
AND ALL LAWS WORK BY HIS COMMAND.
AND, MORE AND MORE I'VE COME TO SEE,
THAT HE HAS DIVINLY CHOSEN ME.
TO BE THE PALM OF HIS HAND,
THE VOICE OF HIS COMMAND,
THE REVEALER OF HIS GREAT PLAN!

I HAD A DREAM INSIDE OF ME,
WANTED TO TOUCH THE WORLD YOU SEE.
BUT, SOME HOW GOD IS TEACHING ME,
OF A FAR GREATER INTIMACY.
AND, IN HIS TIME I AM LEARNING,
THAT HE, IN ME, CAN LOVE,
WITH SUCH DELICACY,
AND YET, GREAT INTENSITY.

ONE CHILD AT A TIME,
HE HEALS THROUGH ME,
WHILE TOUCHING A LONELY MOTHER,
IN HER DIRE NEED.
A FATHER IS RESTORED TO HIS MASCULINITY.
ALL BECAUSE, MY GOD YOU SEE,
LOVES THROUGH ME,
THIS GREAT WORLD INDIVIDUALLY!!
