~ My Chosen Path ~

Two roads lay before me
as I walk through this life
One leads to salvation
the other to strife

One road may I take
from these paths I am shown
One is God's will
the other's my own

The road of my will
is fair and it's wide
where pain or sorrow
could never abide

It is filled with beauty
with pleasures and light
it's smooth and unbroken
no trials in sight

I look down the road
that leads to God's will
there are twists and turns
there are valleys and hills

But I can feel peace
that beckons me near
I stand at the crossroads
and my choice is clear

I'll take the Lord's will
over my own
so that as I travel
I am never alone

Though my path may be narrow
at times dark and cold
full of heartache and thorns
for me to behold

I accept the challenge
on bended knee
with the love and the faith
God has given to me

He walks by my side
through this rocky trail
with a faithful promise
that I will prevail

I shall never regret
this path I have chose
for I have faced the thorn
and will be given the rose
