Down the Wrong Road

DOWN THE WRONG ROAD Spent all my youth Walking down the wrong road Until I finally found It was too heavy a load Then I found Jesus Or else He found me Was shown a new road Walked down it set free Walking down the wrong road Was such a bad choice Instead of listening to my conscience I listened to the other voice. It seemed to talk louder And promised such fun But I learnt there’s a price By either choice to be won. Walking down the wrong road Is now a thing of the past Trust and obedience With His power will last. He turns the old man Into a new being. Where once I was blind With awareness am now all-seeing.

Sometimes times it's hard to tell if I'm on the right road.

Beautifully penned Maureen! When wrong choices are made things go awry but fortunately the path can change to the right one.

I thought you were writing about me fo ra minute! :) I'm trying to change too and the pull of different interests sometimes gets in the way. It is a daily walk I think with rededication every day. Love your words Maureen.
