In Charge

Control seems to be the main issue For our resistance to change is great Controlling others our mission Personal shortcomings we want to negate. It's easier changing others Demanding every day, every year. We discipline wives, husbands, lovers Which stirs up emotions and fear. Imagine our lives blissful and calm If others would do as we say We don't mean to do any permanent harm, We just like to have our own way. If we ended suggestions that limit Others rights to live as they want Feelings would heal with each minute We'd no longer argue and taunt. The clashing of wills knot and entwine As we strive to untangle life's rules. Avoid domination, a restraining sign Or we lose, and both become fools. God lets us decide who we shall be As He continues to love and guide Choices we make are unlimited, free It's our life. He lets us decide.
