I saw a crippled boy,
Leaning for support upon a gate.
Watching as his little friends,
Ran for fun and joy,
With tear-filled eyes, he cried,
"Please, won't you wait."
I saw a poor blind man,
Shuffling with his cane, to find a seat.
While stepping from a bus, I saw,
A girl who used her hands,
To help folks understand,
She could not speak.
And struggling for my sleep,
I asked the Lord to bless me,
And asked Him, my soul to keep.
But my thoughts kept turning to the folks,
I'd seen today,
And I realized, how much I take
For granted everyday.
Each day, I firmly stand.
I have two eyes which plainly see,
The wonders of God's hand.
A voice to speak,
Two ears to hear,
And hands with which to pray,
"Dear Heavenly Father, please accept,
My special thanks today."
