God came to my bed

During the night God came to my bed
and when He came the illness fled,
the cough that had me up at night
sped away at God’s healing might.

God also came to heal my head
and do the things that He had said,
for somehow I had stopped believing,
given in to thoughts that were deceiving.

He also tended to my tumultuous soul
for contact with others had taken its toll
and He knew how cruel mankind could be,
and had responded to my desperate plea.

God tended to my bruised human shell
with water from His life-giving well
and restored me to who He had made
unwilling to simply let me fade.
