I AM A LONER
I Am A Loner.....
I am a loner,
Or is it that I am here
All on my lonesome,
Feeling isolated as can be,
On coming into the place;
Of which they call
God’s abode,
I’ve done it faithfully
For many, many years,
Yet for me as a person
I feel that I’m a total stranger,
To this church going mob.
I’ve been coming here,
Since a day
Way back to nineteen ninety-three,
I believe with all my heart,
I am of great faith
With all my tithes and offerings,
Yet!
Inside these walls,
Where my fellow church goers gather,
I am a loner.
Have felt this way forever,
And consequently,
There for me is this real fear,
That my feelings,
Won’t ever get a better,
As lonely thoughts intrude;
And my journey gets waylaid,
To what the plan of God
Has really in-store for me.
Have never been asked;
Or is it that I’ve been allowed
To show,
Up there on the stage,
'bout what I am worth,
With the talents
And the gifting’s,
That I do enjoy,
But for now;
I feel my only challenge,
Is to give my church away…...
