On Thin Ice

I'm walking on thin ice Echoes of affliction disturbs my slumber Reverberating through my ears...why should I pay the price? I'm praying for their lives to be rescued...from the predator Let me be the living sacrifice... I'm losing my balance...I'm shattering on thin ice Echoes of horrid news demolishes the peace Do I have to be a living sacrifice? When will this madness and chaos cease? Let me pay half the price... I'm RUNNING on thin ice I collide in between the cracks...I pray for safety and knowledge I still hear the victims – screaming in agony... helpless like captured mice When will I ever find an escape route...that'd lead us to a pleasant village? Let me discover His advice... I do need His guidance To survive the hardships... I must take risks and outrun the opposing team I do yearn for His benevolence To reap the reward in the deep future...He's obliged with my lifelong dream Let me walk that narrow path... I'm sKiPpInG to and fro on thin ice I fight off all of the enemies with His strength... those devils tried to lower my self-esteem I still recall the calls of happiness – who considered His advice? How could I discover my true dwelling place? Who will consider my dream? Let me take risks and build up my courage... I'm unable to find His guidance...I'm scattering on thin ice Do I have to be the one to roll the dice? Echoes of bewilderment breaks my cheery heart How do I keep myself from slipping? Am I on a good start Or do I need more practice? Once again, we're walking on thin ice... He's testing my endurance...but they're no longer putting our trust in Him This truth makes me sick in the stomach... is it I who has to pay the price? I'm seeking out your elevating spirit to pull us out of this horrendous nightmare... our confidence in You is about to dim... Let us wander off on thin ice... Let me take my time and make progress... Let us take baby steps on thin ice... Let me take risks and recover from distress... Hopefully this journey renews our joyfulness!! We're STILL patiently waiting on thin ice For Your hospitality to mend our spirits and shed us Your advice I don't mind if You tell us, “You guys should've payed the price!”
