My Number One Poem by Rusty Ed Gibson

I thank the Good Lord
for all he's done
I praise him and call him
My Number One
My suffering is great
my burdens large
when I forget
who is really in charge

I have tried to make life
as hard as I can
I have messed up
as much as any man
So many times
I could have died
The Good Lord knows
how hard I've tried

I have been ignorant
I have been proud
I have spoke obscenities
out to the crowd
I have been a sinner
never been a saint
done lots of bad things
not too many great

Despite my ignorance
and sinful ways
The Good Lord has blessed me
and shown me Grace
I thank the Good Lord
for all that he's done
I praise him most of all
for his Word and his Son!
