Paths

Countless paths I have wandered, seeking for myself the things 
I once honored, Wealth, glory and fame.

But the paths you choose are fickle things, they twist and turn till you walk into the 
flame; Now the falme it is a paradox, it scorches your flesh, but it chills your bones.

I turned to flee, to seek my home, but twisted paths have no sympathy. I was lost 
and all alone. Then I glimpsed a distant glimmer, a tiny light shining through my 
window; I fixed my eyes on that tiny light and followed it through the dark, and 
stormy night.

Finally when I drew nigh the door, my Father stepped out and caressed me tight; I 
pleaded with my Father to take me back and he said. Hush my wandering child, for it 
was I who sent you the light.

"heaven"

Our heavenly father came to bring his children home.
He said those who sinned are left here to roam.
Forgive me father for lieing,stealing,useing Gods name in vain.
Hurting all the ones I love and causeing them so much pain.
I prayed to our heavenly father please don't leave me here.
My thoughts I will change I will carry no more fear.
I wish my time on earth would have been filled with more love.
Because I'ld never came here I'ld went straight to heaven above.
