I Let Him Go Away
I let him go away
choice amidst divine ray
never causing delay
but bringing blessings' tray
as heart decides to stay
abiding in God's way.
I let such go away
chance for future great yea
yet asserting loud nay
while earnest soul did pray
for blest favor each day...
now, "thanks, Lord" I say.
I let it go away
claim toward stardom quay
devoid of regrets' prey
as faith fought carnal clay
with love and mercies' pay
upon Christ's triumph today.
I let them go away
cause those would lead astray
neither white, black; but gray...
at present, I'm okay
victorious, come what may
with Saviour's grace-display.
*Proverbs 16:9 A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.
