How Can I?

As my mind wonders,
How can I be so selfish,
How can I be so rude,
To never,
Spend time with you?

You gave me life,
Not just on Earth,
But in Heaven,
With you forever.

How can I feel so weak?
When in my weakness,
You are strong,
How could I ever love another,
As much as you love me?

How can I never tell,
Another about your love,
But wait,
How many have I told,
How many have I met, 
That still don’t know you.

How many times do I fail you?
And yet I am still here,
On this place,
We call Earth.

My mind wonders,
Once again,
About the birds of the air,
The whales of the sea,
And the animals of the Earth.

I’m like a single rose,
Dry,
Without water,
Then you come to me,
Like rain,
And lift my spirit up,
Giving me more life,
Every time we meet.

Lord,
Give me strength,
To tell of you to others,
Lord give me strength,
So when I hear you calling,
I will listen,
And follow your ways.

How can I ask,
For more than I need,
When you’ve given me,
Everything?

You’ve given me life,
You’ve given me hope,
You’ve given me love,
When I can’t carry on!

I pray that in my time of weakness,
I will depend on you,
To give me strength,
To go and share the Gospel,
To others,
And never Deny you.

Give me the power,
To go the right direction,
So more people might,
Know you.
