My Guide Above

My eyes open and my 
focus finally sets
I feel the rise and lowering
of my chest
A slow breath in and a slow
breath out 
I know I'm alive without a 
shadow of doubt
I say each time to GOD above
thank you for your mercy & love
You granted me another day
upon this earth 
I'll trust in you because I
know your TRUE WORTH
You gave me life without a 
shadow of doubt
That to me is more than 
ANY monetary amount 
I follow your path you have
written for me 
You are my guide through 
this life's amazing journey 
For where ever I go and 
whatever I do 
I know in my whole being 
that it was scheduled by you
Thank you GOD for ALL that 
you do in each and every way
That's what gives me my 
strength to make it another 
day
