I wanted to get home to see my children and my wife.
I rushed around the corner an apple stand was there,
Until I knocked it over. The fruit went everywhere!

I picked up all the apples, restored the apple stand;
To replace the bruised and broken, in her fingers pressed some bills

Excuse me, are you Jesus
To have had me on your mind?
You picked up all the pieces,
The bruised and broken parts;
You put me back in business;
You were Jesus to my heart
