What I Take for Granted

 

By Walt Perryman

I have taken many things for granted it appears,
But I feel scared and helpless when one disappears.

I once watched Sunrises and Sunsets just for fun,
But now days, I thank God for each and everyone.

If I never knew what love was, how can I love,
Until I learned that true love comes from above.

As I get older there is less and less that I can do,
And the things that I still can, I need Gods help too.

God is helping me to replace the bad with the good,
And only God and I know when I do the things, I should!

I’ll have all kinds of problems until my last day,
But I believe the pain will be less if I live God’s way.
