Analysis of Diabetes

Emmorrison 1971 (Mountain Home)



Type 2,
diabetes,
Help me,  Lord,
Get through this
Lord,

Live with diabetes,
Live for you, Lord,

My late wife Jackie
Was a diabetic,

Learned a few things from her,
Now I learn on my own,

Just another companion,
Another change in my life,
Help me, Lord, keep learning through this fight.
