Because I care, a poem

Here is a poem that I wrote while in the MTC.  It reflects thoughts that all of us have at some point, and the answer that the Lord has given us throught the scriptures.

Because I Care

"When weary you fall,

I lift Thee up.

When tears blur thy face,

I weep with thee.

When clouds of Darkness hang o'er,

I break the storm."

But when in distress, I sink,

And hope for thee,

When thou return I ask thee,

Where was thou in my distress?

And thou answered, "On a cross."

Then I ask, Why die for me?

And then thou answered,

"Because I care."
