LONELY WOMAN
by Tom Zart LONELY WOMAN Loneliness had me almost persuaded To let my loyalty and favor stray But I thought of you and our children Then decided instead to pray. For so long you've labored on the railroad Called away any hour night or day. Many times in the night when there's thunder I awake as in anguish and loneliness I lay. When our children cry out, "where's daddy?" I remind them you operate a train. While my main concern is your safety And will you return to us the same? I know you're a hard working Christian man And it's not your fault you're always away. I composed this poem to express my need As for your love and tenderness I pray. I love you more than words can express As we solder our burdens as husband and wife. We can't help but be human and make mistakes As we journey the struggles of life. Our challenges are many and vary greatly Raising children in earth's ungodly throng. Jesus never vows to remove all difficulty Only His wisdom to endure what's wrong. Let God take the weight of our burdens We were never meant to endure alone. He will never bend us, break us or destroy us As the seeds of His splendor are sown.
