ODE TO MY SAVIOR

When I die, I will hear my Savior say
     What have you done with your life
     Can you tell me, today
So I will tell Him that I rode a horse
      at a gallop, and nearly fell off   
      I rode a horse at a walk and
      I nearly fell off
I laughed and I cried
Danced and ran like the wind
I sat on a swing and swung
     so high, with my toes tried
     to touch the sky
Tried my best to be good, but often
     did not know where to begin
But oh, you know 
    sometimes I was bad and I did sin
I sang, but always off key
     I even sang a solo in the Baptist Church
I was a mother, and loved
     my children so
I was a nurse and took care of your sick
     and by their death bed I would often sit
I painted portraits and trees
     planted tomatoes, flowers and peas
Had many dogs and cats
     and even remember all of their names
I was a Girl Scout
     and sold many cookies
But I suspect, dear Lord that
    what I am telling you is all useless stuff
And maybe what I have done
     is not enough
But I do know that I have always
     loved you
And even better than that
     I know that you have always loved me
