Pull Me Through

PULL ME THROUGH

I need something I really do – I think I need your Love to pull me through.
If you could place the stars in the sky, and change the river at high tide, I know you’re the one that can pull me through.
I don’t need an alibi I just need your love as a guide. So, I will know which way to go. I just need you – to pull me through.
When days are dark and I don’t know what to do, I need your Love to pull me through,
There are times when I get confused that’s why I need your Love to pull me through.
I may struggle from day to day, that’s why I need your Love, to show me the way – at the end of the day, I need your Love – to pull me through.
I don’t need no one – but you to turn me around – and pull me through.

On the Wings of a Prayer

9/11- Patriot Day, National Day of Service and Remembrance

 

ON THE WINGS OF PRAYER

I remember back in the day when old folks used to say, if He wanted you to fly He would have given you wings.

Let me tell you this, He gave us more than just wings. He gave us the ability to pray, then after you pray – this is what He would do.

He would send you a dream, and that dream would come true. so, if you believe, and pray – your dream will come true.

So, just remember that old war song, coming home – “on a wing and a prayer.”
