I almost lost you yesterday
my life was shattered and in disarray.
God could have chosen death to part
and brought such sadness to my heart.
I took for granted the love we share
but yesterday made me so aware
of the frailty of this earthly life.
I could have been without my wife!
My love, you're so very precious to me
without you I don't know what I'd be.
I know that death will separate one day
but I'm so thankful it was not yesterday.
Praise God for His daily protection
for His great care and His direction.
He was watching over you yesterday
and has given us another precious day.
