Lord, You Decide

Steve Cochrane 1955 (Cape)

Rhymed
Please, Jesus would you choose the day
And then please choose the time,
As I go on about my way,
That You have planned while I'm

Here waiting for your miracle
That always comes right where
And how you chose Your perfect will,
Because of how You care!

About this poem
