Fritter and Waste

Fritter and waste toiled in haste My life was stuck on fast forward Outa my mind... Couldn't rewind Even as my life raced toward The cliff just there Beyond the glare Of life puddles, spilled not poured Out of the noise Echoed a voice A distant life where serenity soared "Cash it all in" Again!... Again! "This life begs a price your peace can't afford" We found the boy Bursting with joy Singing of life, gently measured not harshly scored We walk the ledge Peace from a pledge life is lived now, clarity of charity restored The life I dreamed Whispered not screamed Promises refound resound, communion with my Lord
