Only God Can
By Vicki Esters

Only God Can do, what I cannot,
To bring an end to the devil's plot.
He came to steal, kill, and destroy my life,
Only God Can heal me, while I'm under the knife.
My heart is aching, my home is torn down,
Only God Can build it up again, up from the ground.
I heard the Lord say, I'm turning It around for you,
Because I AM God, and Only I Can make it new.
My Spirit and Soul is leaping from the inside out,
Because Only God Can bring me through,
without a doubt.
Thank You God for your presence and your peace,
I know Only God Can stop the pain and
cause it all to cease.
These shattered pieces and open wounds that don't seem to heal,
Only God Can fix my heart and my home
each day as I kneel.
My prayer is for my family to be together,
free from pain,
Cause Only God Can keep me
from going terribly insane.
Lord don't allow this misery to ruin me to the end,
You're the Only One who can cause all this to mend.
In EVERY trauma, distress, test and trial we face,
We need to run to the ONLY GOD who CAN, win the race.
