Life....

Life is like a hiking trail
You don't know where it goes
You can make up ideas and dreams, but
No one really knows

A narrow path, it winds around
Steep, and Dirty, and Rough
but no matter how hard, no matter how far
These trails will just make you tough.

So blindly foward we go
Through the swamp and trees
Broken hearts and spiritual pain
Will bring many to their knees

A fork in the trail, a decision to make
As to where you want to go
There's no turning back, no shortcuts to take
And nobody to follow.

Don't think about yesterday,
Don't look at your dust.
Keep your focus ahead
And give God your trust.
