Oh how we mumble and grumble out
our God's blessed name.
Especially when our bodies cry out
in all kinds of pain.

Sometimes God has to get our attention
perhaps he uses some parts of our bodies to do it.
All I know is that I really feel close to Him
when I'm hurting so much and I want it to quit.

None of us will make it off this Earth
without hurting of some kind.
Pain can affect part of our bodies
or the deep recesses of our mind.

Well friends, I've beaten this poem
around enough for today.
Are you hurting? Call on God
and remember to pray.

Hurting? Call God!
