Pressing On
I have walked with many,
Yet I have walked alone,
With no one to guide me,
I simply was not shown,
I have looked death in the face
Many times before,
I know that my God was with me through it all,
The peace I can find only comes from deep within,
For my life has been filled with many of sins,
Now a woman, never a child,
Innocence was severely defiled
In his light, I can always smile,
God knows it had been awhile,
Moving on while moving up,
Allowing the truth to fill my emotional cup,
Letting go and letting new in,
I can see change starting to begin,
A father to the fatherless there is no doubt about it,
When I get gifts from him, my eyes become lit,
Awakening my spirit,
that was very much asleep,
Allowing his cleansing power
To abolish any question of defeat.
