Crossroad...

It’s quiet here-the birds are sleeping I’m standing between two roads And I’m thinking. I look back now-to a mist covered road A road worn and steep there- But I wasn’t all alone You were with me I sit down-looking between the roads They both look hard And I’m wondering If I want You by my side Or if I can do it on my own I look back-the sun whisks some mist away I see a mountain One I nearly had forgotten-oh, how I stumbled And how I nearly fell astray Except Your Hand It held me I wouldn’t have made it on my own But You helped me So I could make it to this road And sit here thinking Do I want to go alone? The wind starts blowing-gently kissing my puzzled face And I remember The storms I had to fight And how I was crying Begging You to take me home And how You held me Gave me a light to walk by And You saved me I would not have made it on my own But You brought me through the storms Because You loved me The sun is rising now a little higher-and the birds are waking I have to choose it now- I will do it on my own? Or I’ll go with You? Yes, You’ve brought me here But I’m older now Do I need You? I’m waiting and I’m thinking On this road that splits two ways One road-You’re by my side The other I am free But just one more glace behind And I start walking- Hand in hand.
