Silent Companion

 

I toss in bed tonight,
what can be wrong?
I cannot go to sleep,
Is something wrong?
I turned and saw your picture,
your eyes beholding me.
And then I thought in silence,
You long for company.

I sat beside my bed,
in silence just sitting near.
The Cross of Christ so silent,
and yet, o how so near!
And so I passed in silence,
the hours you want me near.
watching, loving, consoling,
O Jesus keep me here!
