"And the Lord God took the man and put him into the garden…. To dress it and keep it".

Written for my pastor who was typical of these words..hope u enjoy

 

When he was just a young lad, He knew that he had been bad

But there was something deep inside;

It told him he was different, and it was so frequent

That from this voice he could not hide.

Altho he tried running, and Satan's whiles were cunning

The Lord would not let him get away.

He said, "my child I love you, I give this same love to you,

For my work I've chosen you this day".

 

At three on Monday morning, before the day is dawning

He hears the Lord calling him to prayer

He doesnt even argue, altho he is inclined to

Because God's people need Him there.

This man has such a burden for those who may be dyin

That his own needs take second place

So he gives up times of freedom, till God gives words of wisdom

That will move us to seek the Saviour's face.

 

He is a man, with a shepherd's heart

Able to impart

The precious love of Jesus

He's made a stand to make a sacrific

And to give His life

As did the blood of Jesus.
