Charlie Smith Poet Lyric

Notes About The Poem

Where Do I Go Duet

(Female)  O' Lord where do I go
Just what will I see
And when will I know
What truth means to me

Male)  To who can I Turn
Who Can I ask
When will I Learn 
If I'm up to the task

(Both)  This life journeys on
That's so easy to see
Like words to a song
But who's singing to me

(Male)  Lord hear my plea
And answer my prayer
(Both)  What's that we see
Is it him standing there

(Male)  Closer he walks 
with me and my fears
(Female)  Softly he talks
And dry's all my tears

(Both)  Whenever we're lost
And in need of a friend
Our heavenly host 
Will answer again
Whenever you're lost
And in need of a friend
Your heavenly host
Says let's start again,
Let's start again...

Curtis Johnson October 25, 2017 at 6:26 PM Very good Charlie. So much of our lives is about 'starting again". I heard a 62 year old man in Puerto Rico say, "The hurricanes have come and gone, and I'm still here.". He was ready to "start again". Thank you my friend. Charlie Smith October 25, 2017 at 8:29 PM So right Curtis, thank you...

Richard Lamoureux October 2, 2017 at 7:18 PM Well depicted Charlie. Thanks as well for visiting and commenting on my poem. In fact it was no void of faith. I believe the imminent departure from this world creates a sense of urgency to live this life with purpose. Although I know my Savior awaits me I still wish to make the best of my time here. Charlie Smith October 2, 2017 at 8:30 PM Well said Richard, I agree, thank you...
