C005 Poem:
The Visitor Who Stayed All Night
During your sickness, you may have sometimes felt you were alone at night. But you had a visitor who stayed all night.
As your family and friends exited the door, there was still one visitor who stood unaccounted for.
He knelt before His Father and whispered a prayer, asking Him to take you in His care.
Then He sat and watched while you were asleep, as a good shepherd does when attending his sheep.
With His gentle touch He held your hand, because He was the Son of God and not a mere man.
