God, Are You There?

GOD, Are you there? Do you still listen as I pray If you still do, I need you Lord, There is so much I need to say. Do you still listen as I speak And do you hear me when I cry For I know, no one else listens to me And Lord, I just need to know why. Am I not created by you As you have created everything else But many times Lord, I'm all alone Even though, I'm not by myself. Do I not have pain like everyone else Do I not also cry out for help, I am a Man, a very lonely Man One who keeps death, to Himself. Lord, are you awake, If not, I'll let you sleep I'm sorry if I'm bothering you And I'm sorry, If I cause you to weep. Every man has His troubles And every Woman has Her woe, So I listen to them as I should But though when I speak; they all go. Lord, do you still love me, I just need to hear it every now and then, For no one speaks it or shows it from the heart, And I need to strengthen my soul from sin. Lord, I'll leave you now, Thank you, for listening to me Now I truly know, that I'm never alone For you are here Lord, for me to believe. Randy L. McClave
