My Lord is coming to visit today
How do I know?
I sent a message aloft
asking Creator to speak to me
This is how I know
My Lord is going to heal today
How do I know?
Sickness came to visit
and my hands became His
This is how I know
My Lord is going to love today
How do I know?
I looked out my window
and I saw pain
and I saw loneliness
and I saw need
and I saw hurt
and I saw anger
and I saw hunger
and I saw hatred
and I saw lust
and I saw war
and I saw death
and I saw you
and I saw me
and they all reached out
inviting and waving away
This is how I know
