Analysis of He Comes Again
Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)
Not too much and not too little
But everything that I need
So evil won’t invade my life
And my children I can feed
I ask this Lord because these are
The words you spoke to me:
The lame will walk, the sick be well
And all the blind will see!
PRAISE THE LORD
