But Lord Poem by Carolyn Ford Witt

BUT LORD

Good morning, Heavenly Father......
Now, What would you have me do?
You know, I would do anything,
If You tell me.....Just for You.

'GO OUT AND BEAR ME WITNESS
TO ALL YOUR FRIENDS AND FOE! '
But Lord, I can't bear witness
For away they'd surely go.

'GO TALK TO A LONELY PERSON
OR HELP SOMEONE IN NEED! '
But Lord, I can't help anyone...
I've no way to do this deed.

'GO GIVE AWAY A SMILE TODAY,
MAKE ANOTHER FEEL MY LOVE! '
But Lord, I can't make people feel,
That must come from up above.

'MY CHILD, I'VE ASKED THREE SIMPLE THINGS
THAT I WOULD HAVE YOU DO! '
But Lord, I can't do any of these....
For I just haven't got a clue.



If I could change the whole of things,
I would change but just one word.
For CAN'T would e'er be changed the most
And never again be heard.................
