My body is aching
My mind is lost…
But I’ll get them back
No matter the cost.
‘Cause this isn’t something
I do by myself.
It’s the Power of God
Restoring my health!
And when I’m not sleeping,
I know what to do,
Reach deep in my heart
For the Spirit that soothes.
I know that the gifts
Of body and mind
Belong to me only
A limited time.
And so may I use them
To brighten each day
And let in the Spirit
Who shows me the way.
My body is aching
My mind is lost…
And I get them back
‘Cause God pays the cost!

It’s day 12 of NaPoWriMo. Apologies for missing yesterday. I lay down for 5 minutes at 8:00 p.m. And woke up at 1:00 a.m. for a short time. Clearly, I didn’t realize how much I needed sleep!
