God in His infinite wisdom
Taught me a lesson on despair
He took my Arm
He took my Leg
My limbs, He took a good strong pair
His was a mighty lesson on despair
He took my speech
He took my face
In His wisdom, He made a good strong case

His lesson bent my once strong back
and then a miracle, he gave all back

What was the lesson to be learned?
Was I left here just to ponder?
Or just to merely wonder?

I think not
The lesson is that everything's a gift
We need His life, His breath, His mighty lift
The lesson to be learned is seeing
That in Him we live and move and have our being
