He is there

 
Jesus kept me
when as a teen
I turned against Him
even in my anger
He was there at my side
He protected me

Jesus kept me
from drugs
from beatings
from promiscuity
a song always played in my head
"How Great Thou Art"
reminding me
always
how He loves me

Jesus kept me
when I was grown
our children were hurt
then I was injured
when times were strapped
He kept me close
on bended knee
I raise hands in praise to
thank my Heavenly Father
  for His Son, Jesus
 

For I am truly blessed.
