Always For Guidance

When I'm lost and so alone for help I need not pick up a phone.  You’re always 
there to lend a helping hand; you look for nothing much in return, and never a 
bunch of demands.  For your guidance I am thankful every day for your love is so 
precious it has made me an addict.  Even though my prayers are sometimes 
quiet sporadic.  There you are every time. Your commandments are the rules in 
which you want us to live. And when we don't and we fall short of your grace there 
you are still willing to forgive. Why you ask well it’s all right there. The bible is an 
adventure in which none can ever compare from the beginning to the end of time 
no worries of fate, money, or lies. You wrote the story of all mankind. How we as 
a people shall begin life and die.  When we chose to follow the book you wrote 
for us our lives would be better and this you can trust.  Your guidance will see us 
from beginning to end and lord with your love and guidance we will begin to 
descend to a higher level of love and understanding. No one said it would be 
easy is really very demanding. But when we reach your hand oh it will be the 
greatest thing.  Taken to the path of the righteous is what loyalty will bring.
 Dedicated to my father who told me “When kids have praying parents they don't 
have a prayer of a chance!”
