You Were Always There

As I headed down that highway, running from my dreams Wondering why I never stopped to take the chance Living on the edge keeps you moving constantly But there comes a time you have to learn to dance. Life is what you make it, so give it all you got Go out and have some fun and raise some hell Tomorrow will become yesterday and not return again You can't win the race by standing at the well. Looking back at all the times I've tried and always seemed to fail Wondering why God ever put me on this earth Then realizing the challenges always made me stronger And I've been given a whole lot more than I was worth. Now in the Autumn of my years, thinking back to days of glory I stop and say a silent prayer I've been to the mountains and valleys, oceans and plains When I needed You, Lord, You were always there.
