One Drop of Oil...

Paula A. Tomey-Allen

One drop of oil,

Upon my head,

With Priesthood blessings,

While tears I shed.

Strength that comes,

From Words from Thee,

Through anothers voice,

I listen and plea.

For a better time,

Or a better plan,

One drop of oil,

To help me stand.

Thou Abounding Love,

Comforting my soul,

While warming my heart,

And filling my bowl.

One drop of Blood,

How it touches my life,

And will help me to,

Live though the strife.

So fill my lamp,

Full to the top,

And I will prepare,

For Your next stop.

One drop of oil,

Upon my head,

A daughter of God,

And now I am fed.
