This Is Jesus Checking In



This is Jesus, passing through,
I thought that I might check on you.
Is your day going well, My friend?
A moment with you, I'd like to spend.

Should you decide you need to talk,
Or side with Me on a short walk,
I'll gladly take your hand in Mine
And listen to you for a time.

You see, I'm not so busy that
I can't take time with you to chat;
Or even lend a listening ear,
Because you see, I'm always near.

I'll help to dry a tear or two;
I'll take away all fear from you.
I'll keep you warm when you are cold;
I'll comfort you when you grow old.

I'll cast the shadows from your day,
And give you sun to light your way;
I'll lift you up when you are down,
A smile I'll give to cover your frown.

And when the day turns into night,
You needn't fear, it'll be alright;
For I am just a prayer away,
Just call on Me ~ I'll come and stay.
