Do you hear me, Lord, when I call to you? <br />Do you know my every thought and word? <br />Do you know and see what I say and do? <br />When I am sad and cry, am I heard? <br /> <br />O dear child of mine, I hear every cry. <br />I hear what you say and I see what you do. <br />I am always near; I hear your every sigh <br />I cherish you and love you endlessly, too. <br /> <br />Before time began I knew you ~ <br />I thought about you for a very long time; <br />I gave you life and an everlasting soul <br />That we might sing together in rhyme <br />For the wedding of your soul to Mine. <br /> <br />I offer you an eternity of wedded bliss, <br />A grand banquet set before your eyes; <br />I'll bless your soul with a Holy Kiss <br />And smilingly take your hand <br />to my promised land. <br />Say...'yes'... <br />Take my hand. <br />Let me lead <br />I plead. <br />It is all for you all that I do. <br /> <br />...I wait....<br /><br />Carmela Patterson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/i-wait-2/
