Oh Lucy, Lord Help Me

Oh Lucy, how I laughed at all your antics way back when
Wondering how I could believe the messes you got in

Never thinking anyone, least of all myself
Would ever find themselves in awkward places yelling help

But suddenly I noticed that things were happening
That bore a strange resemblance to some episodes I'd seen

I realized that others might begin to make connections
And so prayed this prayer to the Lord for His protection

Lord help me when I step outside the box into the muck
And help me please when my miscalculations get me stuck

Lord help me when curiosity leads me off your path
And when my brilliant schemes disclose the common sense they lack

So Lord will you please give me the wisdom that I need
To see less and less of Lucy in my thoughts and in my deeds

Oh Lucy, you have taught me to laugh at my mistakes
I count them now with all my blessings as my life's outtakes

Only Human

We work to meet your every need

And build your faith each day
When life is hard and things go wrong
We sometimes lose our way

We know our weakness shakes your world
That’s why we try to hide it
It’s often just beneath the surface
Though our smiles deny it

To never dim your faith with doubt
Because we fail to trust Him
We put our best faith forward
Thinking it’s a fight we must win

His word reveals the battle’s His
And we can just let go
He understands our fears for you
And teaches us to know

That In our weakness He is strong
His love for you is true
He holds each teardrop in His hands
Because sometimes Mom’s cry too

IT Forever or I'd Back it Up if I Could Find It

Overwhelmed? I don’t know

Just how low is whelmed?

How high must I go to see it below?

How will I be able to tell?

Why are you looking at me like that?

Everything’s perfectly fine

I always curl up under my desk

To prepare for approaching deadlines

No worries, I’ve got this

How can it miss?

Nothing can happen

That IT can’t fix

So what if the screen didn’t say save?

And the file name is not allowed

I’m sure I remembered to back it up

Do you think it could be on that Cloud?

Alright, I admit it, I’ve seen better days

I think I now know how to tell

My computer is down and IT's not around

That’s when I’m over the whelmed
