The path of life

The path of life is winding,

And oh I wish I knew why.

For the tears that sting me are blinding,

As I send prayers up to the sky.

The lord watches over my steps,

And controls the path ahead

So I cling to the promises kept,

And continuously let him put my fears to death.

The goodbyes are sweet but burn like fire,

As nostalgia and memories come alive again,

But I know in heaven my joy will never tire,

And the eternity with those I love will begin.

The road of life is winding and one day I’ll see it’s end,

But right now all I can do is trust as I walk around this next bend.
