Healing Oil
The Homepage, Poetry & Artwork of Steven R. McEvoy
This is my homepage but most of my web presence is on my blog, Book Reviews and More. It is a collection of my published and unpublished writing, mostly book reviews, with a few articles and reflection's. If you want to poke around here the key sections are Poetry, Artwork, and Lists.
I have written poetry for as long as I can remember. And I try and read a book or 2 of poetry each year. This is one of my favourites.

Healing Oil
Lord I am tired
I’m losing sleep
I struggle with breathing
It overwhelms me
Lord I am thirsty
I don’t want to eat
My Body is aching
For peace
I’d like to run again
Or even just walk
Or just see the ocean
One more time
Lord I look forward to sit at your feet
I know what you’ll do for me
When we meet …
Chorus
I can feel your healing oil
Runnin’ down my brow
I wouldn’t trade another lifetime
For how I feel right now
Lord I am weary
I know that you’re near
Take care of my family
While we’re apart
And thanks you for giving me
The life that I’ve had
But you know I look for the comfort
Of your arms …
