I would like to dedicate this Poem written by Kenneth W. Sparr to my very good friend Val.


My Life

I was living my life, or so I thought.
I was usually drunk or high on the drugs I'd just bought.
It was my life and I was going to live it my way.

I never gave a thought about it at the time,
but the life I was living really wasn't mine.
Then I met a lady that I wanted to make my wife.

But she said I shouldn't be high on drugs, I should be high on life.
I should be praising God and learning the word.
I thought that sounds like every other Bible thumper I'd heard.

There was something different about the message she preached.
Yet I thought I'm to far gone to ever be reached.
Then one day when I was high, I said, "Hey little lady, I'll give it a try.

I went with her to a prayer meeting she'd been talking about
They prayed and laid hands on me and it knocked me out.
When I came to, I was high as high could be.

It wasn't from drugs, it was from the Holy Spirit in me.
So now I'm high on the Lord because he set me free.
As for that little lady, well , she married me.
