A life of despair and sorrow Not knowing if I would have a tomorrow Yet my eyes were caught up in the sparrow My past reflection in being committed My remembrance in my dedication It was my prayers being alone My outcry in what was shown My life my stuck on a record of thought Determination was going to be my sought It was God’s hand leading me on It seemed like the understanding was long However I knew it was church where I belong The praying hands in giving me strength Death seemed ever so close But God’s word being look beyond I found myself living among What was a rough road? It was a heavenly vibe in being a glorious story ever told I lived to breathe and smell my own testimony The enemy tried to make me doubt But deep within my heart and soul, it was mercy that made me shout My tongue being more than just words It was my own sentences in finally being heard There was a song in my voice Being close to thee became my choice My fulfillment in God’s request He help me see better and not settle for less My eyes were open My heart was clear It was God all along that I hold so dear My past being more than a reflect It my forgiving soul that I chose to elect It was my honest heart in what God would expect Yet God is mighty and the Devil being in reject The past being put last, but it is God who gives an individual class.
