The Walk of Life

I've been through good times and bad times..
I've been through it all.
I've been hurt, I've been down and I've been up.
I've stood tall and I've stood small.
But no matter what, I've always praised God.
I've been a sinner but I've been saved.
It's the walk of life that made me this way.
It gets rough and it gets tough.
But God makes me strong.
Don't give up and hold your head high.
Do your best in the walk of life.

Powerful statements in this verse Cody, I also have had the opportunity to praise God. I was in two accidents that almost took my life. I have had sorrow for company, and I've docked my ship in the docks of pain and I praise God for surviving such tough waves that have beat up my life...Raul
