Father…
Father can you see us,
Down here below?
Father can you hear us?
We need you so.
Father forgive us,
We’ve made such a mess.
Father have mercy,
And give us rest.
Father you made us,
To be pure and true.
Father without you,
There’s nothing we can do.
Father can you see us,
Down here below?
Father can you hear us?
We need you so.
Father you gave us,
All that we need.
Father forgive us,
Our wanton greed.
Father you made us,
To praise your name.
Father did you hear us,
In our silent shame.
Father can you see us,
Down here below?
Father can you hear us?
We need you so.

About Me
- Carl's Poems
- I am a son and grandson of a preacher. And my mother was a Baptist lay person. But that doesn't mean I've always walked the straight and narrow. It wasn't until much later in life that I saw the error of my ways.

Carl,
This poem really touched my heart when I read it. You truly have been blessed by God with the talent of words. Keep up the great work. We love having you as a part of our family here at CHLC and are so fortunate to receive your writings and poems.
Many blessings to you.
Sometimes I wonder if anyone reads my post. Thanks for letting me know that someone does.
Carl
