Receiving (Words by Timothy Lomas; Music by Timothy Lomas and Brian Karl) I came as helpless as a puppy dog And I am searching for the one and only love That's big enough to feed me Now I am just passing through the pain and sorrow And I am living like it was tomorrow Won't somebody feed me? Oh, these messages I'm receiving... I was selfish as a dried up bone And I was tumbling in my bed all alone Won't somebody release me? And I was sitting in my room all alone When Christ came down from his heavenly throne Special delivery Oh, these messages I'm receiving... I will fall into your arms like a dove And I would bend just to kiss the glove I would fight for my right to love And I am tickled to be here in my room With these messages I'm receiving, These messages I'm receiving... Messages I'm receiving! #MercuryMile |
