Road Side Assistance

Richard Groff 1957 (Pottstown, Pa.)



Lord I’m glad you have my number
And I have your name
You gave it to me in this world
So, I could make the change

I know that I can call you Father
Because that’s who you are
You gave me birth and you gave me life
And now I have a car

I know the Way to come to you
Straight on the narrow road
Along the path of righteousness
I’ll come to your abode
