I wake up in the mornings <br />Feeling good as can be. <br />Then I get down on my knees <br />Asking God to lead me. <br />I need Basic Instructions <br />Before leaving earth. <br /> <br />I go through the day <br />With a prayer in my heart. <br />To keep this feeling <br />Nothing will make me depart. <br />I need Basic Instructions <br />Before leaving earth. <br /> <br />Many do forget <br />The joy that it brings. <br />How it prevents your worrying <br />About so many things. <br />I need Basic Instructions <br />Before leaving earth. <br /> <br />Life can get long <br />Soft pillows can get hard. <br />Burdens can get heavy <br />But trials can be barred. <br />I need Basic Instructions <br />Before leaving earth. <br /> <br />Before I retire <br />To get a good nights rest. <br />I thank God for protection <br />For Him I'll do my best. <br />I need Basic Instructions <br />Before leaving earth. <br /> <br />Knowing that this world <br />Is not my real place of birth. <br />I keep my BIBLE close <br />For my body goes to dirt. <br />I need Basic Instructions <br />Before leaving earth. <br /> <br /> B-Basic <br /> I-Instructions <br /> B-Before <br /> L-Leaving <br /> E-Earth<br /><br />Cecelia Weir<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/basic-instructions/
