Imagine an ant within a footprint
Like a crater it bows and weaves in mysterious ways

Life is the crater it changes it sways
It has its ins and outs
Its ups and downs

The mystery is appealing
We always try solving

We are the ant
In no way imaginable could we ever
Truly understand the footprint

Yes we have dreams and ideas
Of who this footprint belongs to
But how do we really ever know

God owns the footprint
God owns the world
Our lives are part of this crater
"This Change!"

We can embrace this mystery
We can appreciate this footprint
"This Change!"

Yes change may be terrifying
We don't know from beginning to end

Like the ant in the footprint
Its different it seems impossibly strange

Our life the usual is upset by this change

Trust that God knows best
Let your mind be at rest

The ant can fear moving forward
The ant can stay and blame mystery

Like the ant we can fear change
We can be stubborn and be in still misery

But I say take steps of faith
And believe that change is okay
