Too many worries
Invade my mind
And keeps me far away
From cloud nine.
House payments
And insurance
Utility bills and such
Weighs me down so very much.
Why do I wonder
That my stomach does ache
When there's no money
Left over that I make.
I pray that God
Will answer me "yes"
But all I feel
Is His definate "no".
I have no ills nor ails
So I guess everything else is fine
But I sure would like it
If something was actually mine.
I do everything that is right
And then go that extra mile.
I try with all my might
To be what He wants of me.
Maybe there's something
He wants me to do
I don't know, but I wish
He would give me just a tiny clue.
I pray to God every day
That he will say "yes"
And let me have more pay;
Just please don't say "no".
Whatever life brings to me
I'll try to muddle thru
And I'll wait and see
If God has something new.
