I never had a pat on the back
From God
I never heard Him say
'Well done'!
Usually He's catching me
When time again
I've tried
To tackle life
Without His approval.
I never had a pat on the back
From God
I never heard Him say
'Atta girl'!
Often He's extracting me
From sticky mud and mire,
And keeping me away
From Hell's fire!
I've never had a pat on the back
From God
I never heard Him say
'Way to go'!
But many times He's carried me
When life's been just too hard
And many times He's said
'I love you, child'!
