“It’s good of you to stop for me <br />Amidst this awful storm <br />I’m all soaked through as you can see <br />But your car’s nice and warm <br /> <br /> <br />My friend, I’m truly in your debt <br />The cold was like a knife <br />For hours I’ve suffered cold and wet <br />Until you saved my life <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />It may to you sound rather odd <br />But out there in the rain <br />I raised my eyes and prayed to God <br />Who heard me once again <br /> <br /> <br />Though wet and frozen to the core <br />I heard my Master say <br />“To you, I’ll send an open door <br />To help you on your way” <br /> <br /> <br /> <br />I saw you coming from afar <br />God gave me this decree <br />“The door for you will be a car <br />Wherein you’ll speak of me” <br /> <br /> <br />The word of God is my command <br />I heard and will obey <br />You stopped for me as Jesus planned <br />Now hear these words I pray <br /> <br /> <br />God could have made me warm again <br />He could have stopped the pour <br />He could have called ten thousand men <br />A million even more <br /> <br /> <br />Instead my friend He’s chosen you! <br />God called to set you free <br />Believe that Christ, God’s Son is true <br />Believe my friend and see”<br /><br />Michael P.
