I went to the gym the other day
and saw a fine young lad.
I expressed my deepest sympathy
for the death of his dad.
He stood beside the elliptical
on which I was to walk
but instead we spent half an hour
in a time of deep talk.
It had been too many painful months
since his dad passed so young
but through one of life’s greatest tempests
‘twas to his faith he clung.
So many times he wanted to talk
with his dear old dad
but the God we find in the bible
was the only dad he had.
We exercised our faiths on that day
exploring questions so deep.
The answers for which we were looking
didn’t come very cheap.
My attendance record at the gym
hadn’t been the very good.
We weren’t there at the same time of day
but this day’s timing was good.
If either of us had missed that day
think what we would have lost.
God gave us a special blessing
free from a priceless cost
