Lord Knows...

"Only the Lord knows
the Most High
like Louis, Marian & Le-na
I try
to forget
the trouble I've seen. I
waited patiently,
praying, crying
til the tears streamed. I
waded in the water,
swung low,
on my knees like Tebow,
opposite of a bronco,
hung in, though.

The Lord, Almighty,
He knows."

  1. Lord knows I've experienced the exact same emotions, here and there, being expressed within the words of your heartfelt prose.


    Lena Horne sang an almost spiritual-like version of Nobody Knows The Trouble I've Seen.

  2. Hey Don,

    I think Lena's version IS spiritual... which is why I included her... cool that you knew who I was talking about. :-)
