If I Had One Wish
If I had one wish to make
What would I do?
Perhaps I’d be in the Olympics
Paddling a canoe.
With strength of fury
In my arms,
Racing for the finish line,
I’d beat the others,
Just in time.
Or maybe baseball is what I’d play.
Like outfielders Dave Justice
Or Ken Griffey, Jr.,
Throwing the runner
Out at the plate.
Or hey !!
Running sounds great.
I’d like to be
Like Carl Lewis,
Jumping my way to victory.
But I think I’d settle
For the simpler things,
Like running down the road,
Jumping over fences,
Or even climbing trees.
Or maybe one more race
Against my cousins would be neat.
Running back and forth
And back and forth,
Never knowing when I’ll be beat.
In life are P.H.A.T.
It’s pretty cool
Others can do all that.
In this state, however, I am in,
Therefore, will I be more than content.
It’s a fact, because I have friends like you.
And a Lord
Who is just and Who is true.
In struggles it’s hard sometimes.
Yet through it all I know
That the Lord is right by my side.
And thank the Lord
You’re there also.
If I had one wish to make
What would I do?
Beyond a shadow of a doubt,
I would wish to make it clear,
That, in Christ, as a brother,
I love and thank you my friend.
In Christ for eternity,
Marcus Twisdale (MR.T.)
Phil. 4:11
