God's Call

Here am I Lord, send Bill,

He's better prepared, with greater skill.

I love you Lord, you know -

If you can't get Bill, then get Joe.

I appreciate, Lord, your calling me,

But I'm very busy, as you can see;

So Bill and Joe or maybe Bob

Will have to do this needy job.

When I catch up and have time to spare,

I'll work for you Lord, if the weather is fair.

Now, Good God, don't feel too bad;

I learned this lesson from my dad!

My dad was a good man you know;

Willing to let Tom, Bill, and Joe do the 

things you asked of him-

My daddy you know was a precious gem!

When I call, Lord, on thee;

To do something just for me;

Please, Good God, forget the past 

and come immediately when I ask!
