Untitled

In ignorant bliss I thought I found peace
      In rough seas that I thought had calmed
      With eyes closed tight I slowly peek inward
      To see if my hearts been harmed
      Lost as I stumble down long hard roads
      Obstructed, impeded and hindered
      Forcing me to accept some things
      That I never once even concidered
      Prayed my weakness would give me strength
      Down on bended knee
      A tired, lost and lonely sinner
      Then God cleared the path for me
