Finding Your Way Home
It’s easy to get lost trying to find your own path
In this material world, you’re vulnerable to Satan’s wrath
Free will offers many choices on the journey along the way
and the ego takes advantage creating experiences of dismay
Your stubborn pride pledges independence, proclaiming it’s not you;
but rather, it’s the universe so to your tendencies, you stay true
Determination ignites the spirit persuading you to go on
at times permitting positive encounters of which you then rely upon
Still, inner peace evades you despite achievements you have made
and your subconscious pleads that you retire your long-lived masquerade
Glimpses of salvation encourage you to keep on keeping on
but the Deceiver won’t allow for it to last for very long
Feeling desperate and forlorn, you finally surrender to the Light
Declaring ignorance and begging for intervention with your plight
Supreme Universal Energy grants you forgiveness for the asking
and bestows grace upon you for faith everlasting
And though you at times waiver between hope and feelings of dejection,
your soul is uplifted as God assures you of your perfection
You endured many obstacles having ventured on your own
but absolute love has finally brought you home.
