I came out of the nightmare and wondered where I'd been,

the things I'd heard, the things I'd seen, it wasn't just a dream.

I remember feeling awful with throbbing in my head, my body had been very hot as I laid down on my bed.

Just for a while all time stood still and not knowing where I lay I put my hands together and then began to pray.

I asked OUR God to help me to clear my mind and brain to rid my body of the heat and free me from all pain.

A light appeared from somewhere and words went through my head they said, "fear not my son now get up off your";

"Now don't forget I'm by your side for ever and a day but don't just wait until you're ill again and then decide to pray."
