Stuck in the States
God Almighty help me!
Get me out of America please
I must see the world for which
My young and tender heart bleeds
So many beautiful, delightful countries
To behold, explore, enjoy, and see
Meanwhile I work here tirelessly
Meaninglessly to pay bills endlessly
Thus far my feet have touched
Over 50 islands and 50 countries
All powerful God please finance me
To explore the world You created
My soul is forever focused and fixated
On touching and traveling the world
A wonderful world you made indeed
Global exploration is nutrition I need
Upon this my heart does always feed
Therefore come quickly with Godspeed
Uplift, remove and take me far away
So I can feel my heart again beyond
American merchandising and consumerism
Endless greed, fraud, rhetoric, and materialism
The nations of the world, even war torn nations
Are far more enjoyable and pleasurable for me
Because at least there they are real and not phony
Therefore come sweet Savior and take away me
Provide for me and captivate my wife’s heart equally
So I can be on my way without her fearful hesitation
My heart yearns to touch, see, and experience every nation!
