WHY ME?
Dedicated To: Christine Skidmore Sims
I've stretched my arms toward heaven,
Whispered and shouted Your name;
Please answer my question Lord,
Tell me if I am to blame.
Have you declared me guilty,
Lord, did I do something wrong;
Are you the cause of my pain,
Please tell me what's going on.
I'm seeing this through my eyes,
Show me what You're seeing here;
If it all made sense to me,
I wouldn't feel all this fear.
I know suffering's meant to,
Alert, direct, shape, unite;
I don't know which one of these,
You're using to make things right.
You see why I have sad eyes,
I'm not sure, Lord, what You see;
Please tell me why You're calling,
I'm asking, "Why me, Lord, why me?"
