One Man Of Absolute Care

one man of absolute care

An arid world engulfs me

in its decay and despair

but one man uplifts me

absolves my sin I swear

one man enthroned to be

son and heir

whispered unto me

the Lord's Prayer

one man of virtue and purity

one man of absolute care

one man who couldn't see

a need to play at solitaire

in this great love affair

swore his life to me

to save my soul I declare

Jesus to be

In liquid air

I breathe!
