Walk by Faith

Sometimes it’s hard

To keep my faith in tact

My dreams seem out of reach

My health gets out whack

I hate myself

For choices that I’ve made

I feel it’s all my fault

I try to take the blame

My ego loves

To feel it’s in control

The truth that that’s not so

I know deep in my soul

And yet I front

On others and myself

I feel it’s for my gain

Perhaps good for my health

But

When it is crystal clear I have no pull

And I’ve had humble pie until I’m full

Then

I WALK BY FAITH, IN TIMES WHEN I CAN’T SEE

I BELIEVE IN GOD

GOD BELIEVES IN ME

I WALK BY FAITH, IN TIMES WHEN I CAN’T SEE

I BELIEVE IN GOD

GOD BELIEVES IN ME

I’m blessed with gifts

Though much are double edged

Sometimes I tend to get

Too deep into my head

Once I am lost

Who knows when I’ll be found

When I get in that space

I don’t feel safe and sound

I start to fret

And guess what might go wrong

And somehow I forget

God’s had me all along

Which makes no sense

Given that I’m so blessed

Yet

It’s hard to shake the thought disaster’s coming next

When things get grimmer than they’ve ever been

The only way it seems like I can win

Is

TO WALK BY FAITH

THE TIMES WHEN I CAN'T SEE

I BELIEVE IN GOD

GOD BELIEVES IN ME

I WALK BY FAITH, IN TIMES WHEN I CAN’T SEE

I BELIEVE IN GOD

GOD BELIEVES IN ME

If y’all only knew

The reason why I write

There’s bars that make my day

But these bars just saved my life

This afternoon

I was under a cloud

Seems like a million years have passed 'tween then and now

I watch for signs

To gauge where I belong

I contemplate all night and day what’s right and wrong

Still more often than not I have no clue

And love to bite of more than I can chew

That’s when I pull my hidden card

When forced to choose between a rock and place that’s hard

Then

I WALK BY FAITH, IN TIMES WHEN I CAN’T SEE

I BELIEVE IN GOD

GOD BELIEVES IN ME

I WALK BY FAITH, IN TIMES WHEN I CAN’T SEE

I BELIEVE IN GOD

GOD BELIEVES IN ME
