Should I stay or should I go now? The songs words
answer not the question that I am perplexed with.
The world would have me to put you away, but You
tell me to keep her close and be there for her.
I am troubled within my heart and soul for problems
yet faced.
Man as protector, man as the protected.
Both needing each other more than life itself.
Pain inflicted in a manner wrong. Wrong inflicted without
knowing. Wrong is wrong only in the eyes of the one who
is wronged.
Who am I to say?
I search the only place I know to find solace and peace.
I place my soul in the solitude of Your world. I seek
greater wisdom and patience. My heart is troubled for her.
Am I a fool? I hear myself say.
A soft whisper echoes through the rocks I sit on as a
precious breeze carries away my prayers and my tears.
How can a man love his best friend that much?
The greater the love, the greater the hurt.
Let her to her own resources and save yourself from the
fool is what I hear snaking around my feet.
I close my eyes and feel the Son shine hot on my face.
I hear Your voice echo in my heart. Who will be there when
she needs a shoulder to lean on? Who will be there to make
her laugh and smile; who will be there to love her when she
fails? Who will get her the little things so precious to her?
A bouquet of flowers for no reason, a little note, a written
poem for her eyes only.
She has one true friend in this world that understands. She
only has you.
My son, your choice was made before time eternal. I placed
her in your life so long ago.
Who are you take her out of a life that I placed her in?
Be who she needs you to be and allow Me to be Who I am.
You only have her. She only has you.
Amen.
