The Work That You See Me Do

The work that you see me do

Is not done, in and of myself

But by the GOD of Heaven WHO

Has provided all manner of help.

HE kept my spirits up when

It seemed that my work was

The envy and target of men

Yes, this penchant for writing that drives me so

Is the way that my FATHER would have me go

So I bid you not to hate me

For my work's sake

For, this is the only road

That GOD would have me take

In order to keep my fellowman

From being discouraged and down

And wearing a perpetual frown

Yes, folk, the job has been given to me

To help keep my fellow man encouraged

On their trek to meet eternity.

And though I meet with disappointment and hate

I do the work that has been given me of late

And make no mistake about it

I will continue to do my job

Because I want no errors on my plate

As I follow JESUS's footsteps to Heaven’s gate.

 

And, for the record, I don't know what

Else the LORD would have me do

Before I leave this place of my sojourn

But, make no mistake about it

I'll be caught doing that, too

For I follow where JESUS leads me

And I trust HIM to keep me safe

On my trek to Glory.©

Be safe.
