Father I Am Still But a Boy

In God's eyes I am still a child, and he is our Father, and we are His children.

Father, let your light shine on all that I do,

your love and grace thrills, please make me anew!

If by some chance I stray from the path,

judge me, rebuke me, make strong my staff!

Through rivers and valleys call me somhow,

I want your love and yoke on my brow.

There is nothing in life I can't do,

just wash me with Jesus through to you!

Melt me like silver despel the dross,

remembering always you are the boss.

And when I'm weak and can not stand,

I'll cry for your touch and gentle hand.

Humble me always and pride keep low,

enlighten the paths that I may go.

When excited your mercy to slow me down,

keep my view of the eternal crown!

This year I'm so in tune to thee,

Thy church, Your priest, this new family,

those tears once I cried are now tears of joy,

thank you God, my Father, I'm still but a boy!

Michael,
We ARE God's children, dear friend. In God's presence I am still a little girl gazing up into the Heavens. Another awesome write from you!

Many blessings,
~Linda

The Ghost of Mavis by Mary Lynn Plaisance

Mavis asked, "Am I a ghost again? I don't remember being a ghost, but I know I was." Do you believe in reincarnation?
