THE EMPTY SEAT
WHY IS THERE ALWAYS A EMPTY SEAT NEXT TO ME ?
ON THE BUS TO SCHOOL
ON THE LUNCH LINE
ON THE ROLLER COASTER
WHY IS THERE A QUIET SPACE RIGHT NEXT TO MY HEART ?
AT THE DINNER TABLE
AT THE MOVIES
AT THE ALTAR
WHY IS NO ONE WILLING TO STAND NEXT TO ME ?
IN THE TIMES OF TROUBLE
IN THE LONELY HOURS
IN THE DARKNESS......
WHY !, WHY!,...
DO I FORGET JESUS IS SITTING RIGHT NEXT TO ME
ON THE BUS TO SCHOOL, RIGHT NEXT TO ME
ON THE LUNCH LINE,RIGHT NEXT TO ME
ON THE ROLLER COASTER,RIGHT NEXT TO ME
IN THAT SPACE CLOSE TO MY HEART,SPEAKING
AT THE DINNER TABLE,SPEAKING TO ME
AT THE MOVIES,(telling me to go home)
AT THE ALTAR,SPEAKING TO ME,PEACE BE STILL
WILLING TO NEVER LEAVE OR FORSAKE ME
IN THE TIMES OF TROUBLE,BEING A FRIEND
IN THE LONELY HOURS,BEING A FRIEND,JUST THERE
IN THE DARKNESS,BEING A FRIEND,TO LEAD ME ON
WHY, why would I forget my Jesus ?
