Crash
by Kathleen HighamPeople often speak these words
I pray to God each and every day
No need for church or fellowship
I do it in my own special way
For God understands my feelings
I speak to Him in my back yard
As I sit and enjoy the flowers
Understanding my way is not hard
I know that I have plenty of time
As I have youth on my side
And that Bible reads on and on
About how Jesus had died
So today I take a little ride
But as I turn through the light
A speeding car comes crashing through
Completely out of my sight
An explosion comes without notice
Pieces of car are everywhere
I didn't even have a second
To think or realize how unfair
There was absolutely no time at all
To cry out His Holy Name
I could have died in a heartbeat
In that moment God could have came
The crash weighed heavily on my mind
And I became keenly aware
He let me live another day
Oh how much God must care
And I am going to church today
To pray on bended knee
Thanking Him for each breath I take
And the time He has given to me
