LIFE\u2019S SETTING SUN<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019m a mess this day as you can see<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I don\u2019t know what is happening to me<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For I know that there is no reason to feel<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

This loneliness, for thou art with me still<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But I do Lord, I am so sorry Lord, but I do<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I believe that on this earth you did too<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was not that the Father had left you alone<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our human race failed to make you feel at home<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We often think of self rather than one another<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Forgetting our brother, sister, father and mother<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the cares of this world and such as the like<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Till life fades like the setting sun into the night<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And oh, how miserable art we of all man kind<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Failing to comprehend where to draw the line<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between our want to have to and need to do<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By slighting one another Lord, we\u2019ve slighted you<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Help us understand how much we each need<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To be a part of each other\u2019s life\u2019s consistently<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not just on special occasions, not once in a while<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

But all the days of our life throughout life\u2019s miles<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Author, by God\u2019s grace<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
