Just Inside

When all the things in life you face
Seem to be to much to keep in place.
When your emotions seem to take control
And it seems as though there is no where to go
and all you want to do is curl up and quit,

Just close your eyes and open yoour heart.
Call on Jesus, he is waiting just inside.
He is waiting to walk close by your side.
Waiting to ease you heavy, heavy load.
If you call out his name with an earnest heart,

He will open those doors, and into you life be a part.
He will calm your emotions and put them in place.
He will make space for all that you face.
He will guide your way to Heaven's gates.


all you need to do is pray with your heart,
And all of your sadness will part.
The sun will shine,and evil will depart.
A new day, a new life you soon will start.
For Jesus is waiting, just inside your heart.

sometimes life is like a two sided coin, head or tail; or happiness or sadness ; but they are on the same coin. which side we have facing up is our choice which can be a difficult decision. i find my faith in God as my coin of reference, my superego. great work, thank you, chuck
