  For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal,    declares the LORD Jer. 30 : 17 The rest of the ward are sleeping I'm laying here alone I wish this ordeal were over And I were safe at home.

But it's now in the still dark nighttime That I feel HIS presence so near The ONE who said He'd never leave If I called, HE would be here.

Now I feel unconsciousness coming  As my eyes begin to close I feel as if I am drifting. . . . . . . . . . . Slowly. . . . . . into . . . . . . . . a doze. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * I have awakened, feeling much better, My surgery has been a success, Again, as in all previous trials
