Life By The Drop Poem by Aldo Kraas

My life must go on forever each day
Living life by the drop
Each day
I am loosing control
And than someday I finally found hope in the Lord
And the power you are supplying Lord it is electrifying
Living life by the drop
Sometimes it is hard to do
I better shape up
Because I need a Lord
And my heart is set on the Lord
I better shape up, I better understand
To my Lord and my heart I must be true
Lord you are filled with affection
Lord you are the one that I want
Lord you are the one that I want
Lord you are the one that I want
Lord you are the one that I want
Living life by the drop
I don't know what is there for me in store
Lord you are the one that I need indeed
Living life by the drop
I will wake up this morning
I am hoping to see you again
Face to face
I want to pay tribute to you Lord
The Lord knows the shape of my heart
He knows in what bad shape my heart is
It needs fixing
Because it is broken in too many pieces
Living life by the drop
I could be sick any time in a dropp of a hat
That is if I don't take care of my health and myself
Living life by the drop
I am glad that somebody is with me
Yes sometimes I forget that
It seems that the world was lost forever in my mind
Sometimes it seems that I am seeing the dark clouds in my mind
Sometimes I am lost for words
I have a different picture of me
But when I look at the mirror
Somehow it doesn't look right any more
There comes that guilty feeling
And that question why did I let myself down?
I feel that I am punishing myself each day
For the things I should do, but it never gets done
