Poetry
Depression affects the great and the small
It sets in when your back is against a wall
Some call it melancholy by another name
Whatever its' title the feeling is the same
Elijah was depressed and hid in a cave
Jezebel wanted him lying cold in a grave
Then the Lord spoke in a still small voice
Depression fled and caused Elijah to rejoice
John the Baptist languished in an old jail
No one cared enough to make his bail
He was depressed about his impending fate
He was to be beheaded on a certain date
Then a word from Jesus came as good news
He told him he was Christ the King of the Jews
That the blind receive their sight and the lame walk
That the dead are raised, the deaf hear, the dumb talk
Only Jesus Christ can do such mighty deeds
He feeds the sparrows and tends to their needs
So when depression comes and you're feeling blue
Remember that Jesus loves and cares about you
