Too Busy

TOO BUSY

I'm too busy to spend time in reading God's Word,
And too busy to find time to pray.
I'm too busy to teach a Sunday School class.
There just aren't enough hours in each day.

My time is all scheduled from morning till night,
With dozens of tasks to be done.
I rise before dawn, and I scarce catch my breath
Till long after the setting of sun.

And Sunday's the only day I can sleep in.
I'm so tired I need time to unwind.
But yet there is cleaning and laundry to do,
And multitude jobs I still find.

My family and friends have to take a back seat,
While hoping I'll soon squeeze them in.
I'm living on coffee and vitamin pills;
Seems each day's gone before I begin.

I'm planning some day to go back to my church,
And perhaps find some fellowship there.
I'm sure I'll have time then to study the Word,
And time to meet Jesus in prayer.

But today I'm too busy to change my routine,
Because there's so much left to do.
I just hope when my life ends, and I meet the Lord,
He won't say, "I'm too busy for you!"
