"A MOTHER OF THREE"
             A mother of three                  
                   out on the street                        
                       nowhere to go                              
                             and nothing to eat.                               


I asked myself
how did I get here
going in circles
always in fear.


Where did I go wrong
my parents were there
always helping me out
full of love and care.


I seemed to be trapped
running out of hope
doing what I could
at the end of my rope.


With no where to turn
and no way out
what else could I do
I had no doubt.


Down to the alley
fast as I could run
took out some bullets
and loaded my gun.


I stuck it to my head
I'll end it today
no more cares
all my fears gone away.


I pulled back the hammer
all ready to die
then I saw a bright light
from the corner of my eye.


Not wanting to look
because of the fear
I heard a sweet voice
I love you my dear.


I don't know what it was
about that voice
somehow I knew
I had another choice.


Come unto me
is what he said
I put down the gun
and lifted my head.


I then gave heed
to hear what he'd say
he stretched out his arm
and said I AM THE WAY.


Although I didn't know him
he seemed so full of love
I've heard your cry
and watched from above.


I said what must I do
to get out of this mess
he said trust in me
and I'll do the rest.


So I gave him my heart
that very same day
he has taken me in
and shown me the way.


He took me off the street
gave me a new start
gave me a job
and a new heart.


It's been three years
since things were so bad
I am so happy
and my husband is glad.


To think I was gonna
do away with it all
but praise be unto GOD
I heard his call.


GOD is no respecter
of persons you see
he will do for you
what he's done for me.
