~ The Only One ~

Stranded in such a rain storm
Another tire had gone flat
No one she could call for help
Funds, she surely did lack

This is just my hopeless luck Lord
Broke down again in awful weather
She hears a rumble in the distance
It’s a bearded man in black leather

Oh Dear God, help me please
His arms are the size of small trees
He recognized her frightened stare
Pop the trunk maam, gotta get your spare

You sit tight maam, keep yourself dry
I’ll have her fixed in just a jiffy
God surely approves of a cheerful giver
In His eyes, I wanna look spiffy

She sat motionless, warm and dry
He worked steady in that rain
Earlier thoughts would bring a tear
In her heart she could feel His pain

There ya go maam, you’re all done
Let me please pay you a small sum
No maam, it really was my pleasure
On down the road, I’ll get my treasure

He rode away wet, with a smile
With her prayers, she sat for awhile

Thank You Lord for hearing my cry
Thank You Jesus for opening my eyes
I don’t know what I would have done
In this downpour, he was the only one…
