BEFORE I MET YOU



I NO LONGER HAD A DREAM



MY LIFE HANGS ON A BORROWED TIME



DEFIED TOO MANY TIMES.





WHY AM I STILL HERE



I COULD NEVER QUESTION HIM UP THERE



HE HAS SOMETHING FOR ME TO DO



TO GRASP IT IS BEYOND FOR ME TO COMPREHEND.





OF COURSE I OFTEN WONDER WHY



EACH TIME I BREAK DOWN AND CRY



BUT HE BEARS FOR ME WHAT IS IMPOSSIBLE



BECAUSE IN HIM ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE.





EVEN THE DOCTOR HAD CONCEDED



THAT I COULD HAVE BEEN DEAD LONG AGO.



THIS FACT DID NOT EVEN DRAW SYMPATHY



FROM SOMEONE I MET IN MATRIMONY.





BUT A GUIDING HAND STRONGLY LEADS ME



THAT'S WHY AM STILL HERE UNTIL TODAY



HE GAVE ME LIFE UNDER A NEW LEASE



SO TO HIM I BECOME A WITNESS.





I AM A USELESS VESSEL



UNLOVED, UNCARED, UNWANTED



LEST THIS LIFE DID NOT WORRY ME



FOR HE ABOVE SAID, "BE CONTENTED."





WITH WHAT HE BLESSED ME



I LEARNED TO LOVE, JOYFUL AND THANKFUL



WITHOUT WEALTH, RICHES OR EARTHLY TREASURE



HE PRESERVED ME FROM CORRUPTION AND DEMEANOR.





I AM BRITTLE AND FEEBLE



EASY TO BREAK BUT HARD TO HANDLE



FOR HIS LOVE ABIDING HAS GIVEN ME STRENGTH



TO DO WELL WITH WHAT REMAINS MY LIFE IS LENGTHENED.
