Mighty Force

What a mighty force is flood water
Coursing on its way to the sea
Forcing ones way backward impossibility
Carried away in the flow easiest to be

What about you and what about me
What will our course be this day
What course will attraction drawing be
Right, wrong, straddle the fence, play

Decisions, decisions what choice today
Help my eyes be focused on the prize
The prize of the higher calling stay
Stay focused don't ever become unwise
