Like Today

Like today I'm crying I'm broke it seems like no way out
Like today I'm thinking what am I going to do without you
Like today I'm saying to myself why am I in this situation

Like today I'm singing the blues trying to hang on 
Like today I'm agruging with my sisters and my brothers
Like today I"m thinking about just quitting the praise team
I just don't wanna holla or scream I just want to walk out
I just wanna let all end

That was all yesterday today I'm still trying to end proverty
Today I'm still trying to get over you
Today I'm no longer in this bad situation
Today I'm no longer agruging with my brothers or sisters
Today I'm no longer singing the blues I'm singing to our
to Christ who sits on the throne singing to god alone

Today I have won the victory my soul is set free
Today I am praising his name I am clear of all the fear
Today I am happy ready to go back out to the world

Today is a new day

Hey Patricia, stopped by for a visit and so glad I did. This is excellent writing and I love the tribute to our Savior. A very thought provoking poem giving hope that each new Today is a new beginning in Him. Be Blessed, Neva
