Higher Ground
Have you ever had a day, you wished you were dead,
what makes these thoughts pop up in our head.
It has been a while since it came to me,
but I was already dead, I just couldn’t see.
My whole life washed down the drain,
but to then, be cleansed of its reign.
How this life can change in a second you see,
and those things we lose, sometimes sets us free.
If you keep those feelings, in your heart,
in life, it will be hard to find your part.
Sometimes, the people places, and things,
have their very own, deadly stings.
I no longer wish these thoughts, you see,
my heart belongs to God, the way it should be.
All kinds of these thoughts, that comes to mind,
trust in Jesus, and you will find.
A life that is worth the living, you see,
that’s why, He died for you and me.
To take these thoughts, and turn them around,
they will set you upon, higher ground!
