[bodytext] => Who would I be if not for you- A one and only love so true? All of the gifts time and again- You’ve given so freely helping me win. You know good and well the wretch that I am, Still you refuse to let go of my hand. You tell me that for tomorrow don’t worry. I don’t always listen and I get in a hurry. Often I pay such little attention- To all of the truths you more than mention. I reach the top of the mountain you help me to climb- Just to hurl myself down the other side. There is no-one but myself to blame. But you catch me and continue to call my name. When I was young and growing up- To many times I was stuck in a rut. When there was no-one to dry my tears- Somehow you managed to calm my fears Who in this world can be compared to you? There has been no-one that I ever knew. Joanna G.
